Big Mouth Strikes Again
Tonight's theme of inappropriate songs is asking for trouble but I think it could be a good laugh. I want to hear your stories of the songs that turned up in the wrong places. We are bound to get loads of stories of funeral songs that just should not have been played and there are brilliant examples of songs that the wedding band got wrong. My pet hate is I Will Always Love You being played at weddings. It's one of the best break up songs of all time!!!
Let me know what yours is, and fear not as the queen of appropriateness is producing tonight.

which was my favourite record of the times, I didn't notice the lyric mirrored the same circumstance....it ended predictably, of course..But it's a great record Bryan, let's give it a spin.It's okay to tell the story, we're all cool about it.
And, there must be someone out there who had Engelbert's alt disco version of 'Strangers In The Night' played at their wedding..Senga?

More Questions Than Answers -Johnny Nash for Paolopablo
Actually, not sure if that is inappropriate or appropriate.
My problem with this theme is that I keep thinking of appropriate songs. For example when Duran Duran did Hungry Like The Wolf, well, Simon Le Bon quite clearly was.

I and Love and You - The Avett Brothers
I also requested many times The Hedgehog's Song on GIO and when they eventually played it it was deemed so inappropriate they cut it short
The Hedgehog's Song - The Incredible String Band

Ah Yes!
That is unmissable - last January it was Love & Money, this coming January, the Big Dish - when, where, ticketmaster?
I think it's because I'm the only person who still buys cd's - so everyone's performing live.
As a side issue -CD's are worth buying now that they are all beautifully packaged. Back to the days when buying music was buying a work of art. Joe Bonamassa and the Leisure Society albums are beautiful things to own.
theme:albums you used to carry about under your arm because you liked them.

Many moons ago I Deejayed at a function where a girl was emigrating to Australia to live with her dad and so her mum had organised a going away bash. It was a pretty good night and everyone was having a good time so i thought I would finish with the obvious She;s Leaving home. So i got the girl and her mum up on the floor stuck it on and well let's just say they weren't dancin, they were hauding each other up roarin and greetin.
So perhaps it was a bit inappropriate after all.
I still laughed all the way home though!
