WEDDING SOUNDTRACK: DISC 3

Here's the next batch of wedding soundtrack listings... sorry it's taking so long, but I made the CDs in such a rush that I'm not really sure what wound up on them (since they're not exactly the same as the ones we gave the deejay and we didn't wind up with any copies for ourselves)!


So until I can figure out what's on Discs 4 & 5, here's the track listing for Disc 3, comprising the first dance set of the reception.

WEDDING SOUNDTRACK LISTINGS

Hi! Sorry it's taken so long to upload the track listings for the Wedding Soundtrack CDs, but me and the missus only just recently got back from our romantic honeymoon getaway to California (check back here in a week or so for the full story)!

Anyway, I’m starting with Discs One and Two – again, check back soon for the rest. I’m pretty sure about the listings below, but I need to verify the remaining discs...the physical production of the CDs got a little, uh, chaotic (i.e., I was still churning them out the night before the nuptials and ran out of discs and had to juggle some tracks around), so the wedding soundtracks on the tables didn't wind up matching the discs we gave to the Deejay, hence the need for verification).

Okay, enough palaver. Herewith, the first two (hopefully at least 89% percent accurate) Wedding Soundtrack listings.

DISC ONE: WEDDING EVENTS

1. All You Need Is Love (The Beatles) -- Wedding Party enters

2. MacArthur Park (Richard Harris) -- Cutting the cake

3. Thirteen (Big Star) -- First dance

4. I Will Live My Life For You (Tony Bennett) -- Father/daughter dance

5. When You Wish Upon A Star (Jiminey Cricket) -- Mother/son dance, Joe Walker Sr. tribute

6. I Remember It Well (Gigi soundtrack) -- Buzz & Ellie 40th anniversary dance

7. Pop Goes the Weasel (Anthony Newley) -- Bouquet toss

8. Two of Us (The Beatles) -- Last dance

9. We'll Meet Again (Johnny Cash) -- Exit music

(* Plus several bonus tracks I threw on from the other discs that I can't remember now...but if you hum a few bars, I might be able to identify them!)

2. Morning Has Broken (Cat Stevens)
