They're playing our song . . .

Oh, wait.  They're not.  Because we have no song.  Which means we have nothing to dance to at the reception.  So I am brainstorming.

• "Always," by Irving Berlin.  A classic standard, and my grandparents' song.  A lot of the versions are super cheesy, but I like Willie Nelson's version (the gravelly voice counteracts the sweetness of the song), Kenny Rogers' version (ditto), and Frank Sinatra's version (he changes it to a swing beat halfway through).
• "Could I Have This Dance?"  His aunt and uncle's wedding song, I think.  A bit cheesy and a bit country for me.  But we'll see.
• "Crazy Little Thing Called Love."  One of my favorites, especially the Queen version (the HTB prefers Elvis or Michael Buble).  But some good friends of ours danced to it last summer at their wedding, so I'm not sure.
• "When I'm 64," by the Beatles. Fun and lighthearted, not slow and sappy.
• "Happy Together," by the Turtles.  Great song.
• "I Got You," by James Brown.  Fun and unexpected. 
• "Love Will Keep Us Together," by The Captain & Tenille.  So fun.
• "Come Go With Me."  Fun and swing-able.
• "How Sweet It Is (To Be Loved By You)," by Marvin Gaye. Swing.
• "I'm Gonna Be (500 Miles)," by the Proclaimers.  Supposedly a swing dance.  Not sure.
• "Moondance," by Van Morrison. Slow swing.
• "With This Ring," by the Platters.  Another one some friends have done.  Slow swing.
• "Open Arms," by Journey.  Waltz.  And hee.
• "Play Me," by Neil Diamond. Waltz.
• "It Had to Be You," probably the instrumental version from When Harry Met Sally...  Fun swing number.
• "Our Love Is Here to Stay."  Ditto, if a little slow.
• "I've Got You Under My Skin."  Ditto.
• "More (Theme from Mondo Cane)."  Cute swing number.
• "Hold You in My Arms," by Ray LaMontagne.  Waltz. 
• "Fly Me to the Moon."  Swing.
• "The Best Is Yet to Come."  Swing.
• "Because," by Dave Clark Five.  Rumba.
• "More Today Than Yesterday," by Spiral Starecase.  Swing.
• "Why Do Fools Fall in Love?"  Swing, and sort of ironic?
• "Put a Lid on it," by Squirrel Nut Zippers.  Swing, and ironic.
• "Let's Call the Whole Thing Off," by Louis Armstrong. Slow swing, funny.
•  "All Shook Up," by Elvis Presley.  Swing.
• "Teddy Bear," by Elvis Presley.  Swing.
• "Little Less Conversation," by Elvis Presley.  Swing, but possibly inappropriate? 
• "Burning Love," by Elvis Presley.  Swing, but possibly inappropriate?
• "Sway," by Michael Buble.  Rumba.
• "Oh, Boy!" by Buddy Holly.  Swing, but possibly inappropriate.
• "Can't Buy Me Love," by the Beatles.  Swing.
• "Higher and Higher," by Jackie Wilson. Swing.
• "Wear My Ring," by Elvis Presley.  Swing.  
• "Yes, Sir, That's My Baby."  Swing.

More to come as I think of them.  Ugh.
