Thoughts on our wedding song-DMB

FH and I are huge Dave Matthews fans-so we decided we wanted to have a non-traditional wedding song and try to have a Dave Matthews song. We were considering "Where Are You Going" I've posted the lyrics below. Let me know what you guys think-or if you have any other Dave Matthews Band song suggestions.

Thanks Ladies!!!

Where Are You Going
Where are you going, with your long face pulling down?
Don’t hide away, like an ocean
But you can’t see, but you can smell
And the sound waves crash down

I am no superman
I have no answers for you
I am no hero, oh that’s for sure
But I do know one thing for sure
Is where you are, is where I belong
I do know, where you go, is where I want to be

Where are you going, where do you go?
Are you looking for answers, to questions under the stars?
If along the way you are growing weary, you can rest with me until a brighter day
It’s okay, where are you going, where do you go?

I am no superman
I have no answers for you
I am no hero, oh that’s for sure
But I do know one thing for sure
Is where you are, is where I belong
I do know, where you go, is where I want to be

Where are you going, where do you go?
Are you looking for answers, where do you go?

Where are you going?
Where do you go?
Let’s go.

as a huge dmb fan myself, i say go for it. i absolutely adore that song and think its perfect for a wedding song.

My cousin got married a few years ago and used "i'll back you up" Great song as well!

Re: Thoughts on our wedding song-DMB

Oh my god! Its so good to see someone else is using DMB, my FI and I are big fans, the song I was thinking of using is, Oh-I love you oh so much.

The world is blowing up
The world is caving in
The world has lost her way again
But you are here with me
But you are here with me
Makes it ok

I hear you still talk to me
As if you're sitting in that dusty chair
Makes the hours easier to bare
I know despite the years alone
I'll always listen to you sing your sweet song
And if it's all the same to you

I love you oh so well
Like a kid loves candy and fresh snow
I love you oh so well
Enough to fill up heaven overflow and fill hell
Love you oh so well

And it's cold and darkness falls
It's as if you're in the next room so alive
I could swear I hear you singing to me

I love you oh so well
Like a kid loves candy and fresh snow
I love you oh so well
Enough to fill up heaven overflow and fill hell
Love you oh so well

The world is blowing up
The world is caving in
The world has lost her way again
But you are here with me
But you are here with me
Makes it ok
Oh girl you are singing to me still
Like a kid loves candy and fresh snow
I love you oh so well
Enough to fill up heaven overflow and fill hell
Love you oh so well

I'm a HUGE HUGE DMB fan, I love the song. I think there are others though if thats not one with special meaning. My friends had "crush" as theirs and it worked great! I say go for it if you love it.

Re: Thoughts on our wedding song-DMB

LOVE LOVE LOVE DMB!!! I say go for it if you both love it. FI and I also wanted to do something different and DMB. We're using "Loving Wings" which is so unique we have to use a live version as they don't have a studio recorded version. Here are the words:

Loving Wings

My heart is made of broken bones
My soul a bag of stick and stone
But you along this dusty road
Come my love to take me home

I give to you my everything
You've given me these loving wings
And angels have all gathered 'round
To hear me sing my love out loud

Oooohhh-ooh-oooooh
Oooohhh-ooh-oooooh

You lightly lifted me away
Above the darkness cold and grey
Worked beneath the mid-day sun
Cool blue water you have come

I give to you my everything
You've given me these loving wings
And angels have all gathered 'round
To hear me sing my love out loud

Oooohhh-ooh-oooooh
Oooohhh-ooh-oooooh

So take your place here next to me
I'll take my place there next to thee
No matter how far we may roam
It's by your side I make my home

I give to you my everything
You've given me these loving wings
And angels have all gathered 'round
To hear me sing my love out loud

Oooohhh-ooh-oooooh
Oooohhh-ooh-oooooh

I Love DMB songs as well, but I think there might be a better one out there. JMO

Re: Thoughts on our wedding song-DMB

I am a HUGE DMB fan!!!! I would go for it!

Re: Thoughts on our wedding song-DMB

I just posted about having a DMB song as well. We are having "Steady As We Go" by them and my friend just had "Up and Away." No matter which one you pick it will be great since it has meaning for the two of you....

Re: Thoughts on our wedding song-DMB

I love it! Anthony sings it all the time. We used the Beatles remake "All my life" by DMB for our video.
