    Not a traditional poll, but what is your first dance song?

     

    Ours is Harvest Moon, by Neil Young.

    We're undecided right now, but probably "Hands Down" by Dashboard Confessional - very unconventional, but it's a song we've always bonded over.

    Ours is a toss up... We're thinking about:

    * I can't help falling in love, Elvis ( our first song we ever danced to)

     

    But Ive played that song So many times in the past 2 years it kinda got old... is that bad?

    @mrsspinella09 - That was our song too - he sang it to me kareoke before we started dating and couldn't figure out another one.

    We almost chose Harvest Moon too!  But we went with Ben Folds, the Luckiest.  More his choice than mine.  Ironically because I introduced him to it and it is my style of music so it makes him think of me.  I love the song, but I wanted Neil Diamond, Play Me.

    "All I Ask of You" from Phantom of the Opera! I can wait, we've been taking dance lessons and will waltz to it, but we're keeping it a secret so everyone should be surprised when we twirl around the dance floor!

    50 days and counting! Laughing

    "Into the Mystic" by Van Morrision.

    Although lately I've been thinking about "The Man in Me" by Bob Dylan (yes, it's the song from the beginning of The Big Lebowski)

    @hotchild - I wanted that song SO BAD!  FI (at the time) hated it.  I wanted the American Wedding version though, by the Wallflowers.

    @KellyV: We got the idea from American Wedding actually (its one of our favorite movies) but we're going with the classic version!

    The FI picked our first dance song and he picked Van Morrison "Someone Like You" he made me cry when he was explaining why he picked it! He told me that he remebered me telling him when we first met that this was one of my favorite songs ever & that the lyrics were written for us! MELT!

    Sidenote: The first time I heard this song was at the end of Bridget Jones Diary (my favorite movie of all time) and I was in love!

    No first dance song in particular ... though we'll get the party started with ... Lets Get it Started by the Black Eyed Peas (come on, it's too perfect) and plan to include a slow dance to Over The Rainbow by IZ

    @AnnieAAA - I love "Someone Like You" too.  I remember after I saw Bridget Jones I would listen to that song over and over - that was before I even met my FI.  I would have loved to have a Van Morrison song as my first dance too, but FI isn't too keen on Van Morrison for some reason.  So Neil Young it is!

    "Easy Silence" By the Dixie Chicks definitely sums up exactly how we feel about each other and what made us think that the other is "the One." (:
