I know how to waltz, at least well enough to fake it. My fiancee, however, does not. Most of the songs we've rejected at this point have been because they're too hard to dance to, too raunchy, or they belong to someone else. The list we're looking at right now is:
The Way You Look Tonight, by Elton John
Lady in Red, by Chris DeBurgh
“Don’t Know Much” Linda Ronstadt/Aaron Neville
“The Way I Am” Ingrid Michaelson
“O! Valencia” Decemberists
“That Teenage Feeling” Neko Case
“Lifelong Fling” Over the Rhine
“Concerning the UFO Sighting near Highland, Illinois” Sufjan Stevens
“It’s Good to be in Love” Frou Frou
“I’ll Stand By You” The Pretenders
“The Road Song” Anne and Pete Sibley
“Throw me a Rope” KT Tunstall
So if you guys know good songs similar to these, or think one of these is a really bad idea, that'd help. We're both really tempted to do a song like NIN, Closer, just to be 'amusing', but we both know better than that.
