Message of Love gets a BOS
-
How'd she come up with this theme? Touching, but kinda weak on its face. Hoping for surprises.

yeah, me, too. forecast calls for partially cheezy skies songs
-
My bitterness at being an old maid may keep me from enduring this whole set.
-
I hope we get Hit Me With Your Rhythm Stick -- tee hee
-
There's a great Depeche Mode song that fits this theme, but the title is escaping me.
I'd also nominate Badfinger "Day After Day", which my brother Joel used at his wedding.
Gotta run to take my kid on a field trip. Have a great weekend everybody!
BOS's to Pretenders & Roxy Music.
-
BOS for Roxy! I'm thinking Tinka will be enjoying this one.
-
Well, this is a bit of an improvement. BOS1 Roxy, More Than This.
(Aside: Anyone able to explain the audible whimpering in the middle of You Are the Sunshine of My Life?)

of course! nice selection for a wedding song, too. it beats Precious And Few, slightly...
BOS!! More Than This
-
Other nontraditional suggestions:
Talking Heads, "This Must Be the Place" (used by my friends Dave* and Bec)
Dorothy Moore, "I Believe You"
Association, "Never My Love"
Will we get Stookey's "Wedding Song" again?
PS: WOS to that stupid-ass JT cover

I notice that every time and have always wondered about it. Without reason, I've assumed it was Stevie stifling a giggle.

Right on cue, here's JT. WOS so far.
My no-brainer predictions would be for Wouldn't It Be Nice, and When I'm 64. But I would not be bummed to not hear either one--hoping for less obvious selections.
-
I know Mike's stuffed his fingers in his ears, but Mraz and Callait's "Lucky" is a really pretty song. Stunned that it only made it to #50 a few months ago.
-
is this Jason Mraz?
-
BOS for Long "I'm not a stereotype" Duck "I swear I'm not!" Dong.
-
Wow, this set sure took a dive in a hurry. WOS2 Jason Mraz duetting with what sounds like Leslie Feist. I can almost hear Mike screaming in agony from here.
(Disclaimer: I did not recognize this as being Mraz. The player tipped me off.)
Sodden thought: I wonder if AL is tyin' the knot with her sweetie this weekend or something?
-

I think I might throw up if this continues.
-
Would be great to hear from the original "Father of the Bride".
-
I want Precious And Few or Climax Blue Band's I Love You... please!!
-
Another in the partially cheezy category, but I'd wager a BOS for Macca's My Love anyway. Second bustout of set (after the Mraz/Caillat tune), if anyone's keeping track.
Haven't we heard this Godfather clip before?
-
"That dweam wiffin a dweam!"
-
BOS for the impressive clergyman in "Princess Bride"! And when we got married, we made three tapes to play after the ceremony. Nick Lowe was on there, so honorary BOS. This was actually the only marriage-oriented song, actually. It mostly included our favorite songs like "Everybody's Everything", "Hard to Handle" and "Under the Sea". Heh.
-
Ack! Of course, we get I Knew The Bride--but why'd it have to be the cheezy Huey Lewis-produced version? There are so many better ones out there.

I didn't know this was Huey-produced, though it sure does sound it. Is he playing the harmonica on there?
-
Not really enjoying this all too much. But BOS to the Pretenders, HM to Stevie and "I Knew the Bride When..."
My suggestions would have been LZ, "Thank You" and J. Geils "I Do", both of which were featured at weddings of my freinds. "I Do" made a particularly festive recessional.

Yep. In fact, I believe the News is the backing band.
-
Hmmm, bonus song for true companions, true companions...I have a hunch what it's gonna be.
-
So what was that last bit about tune #9 being for Renee and Mike, "the matchmakers"? I think there's some subtext here we're not getting.

Looks like I guessed right. When I e-mailed my BOS vote, I asked AL if there were some personal significance to the topic of today's set and got this response:
Yup...I'm flying off to MA to take the plunge...get the old ball and chain..and whatever else they say:)
Who'da thunk it? Actually, Renee's hubby and my soon to be were school friends and she pretty much played matchmaker on this one so, we're excited and happy that the intense long distance wedding planning and craziness will soon melt into fun and laughter and even a lil honeymoon off Cape Cod.
I'll be back in 2 weeks...expect to hear a couple classic 10@10's in the mix from our dear Dave and Don days and some "encores" from the not so distant past, too.
Enjoy and take good care, Jim!!!
Thanks again for the note
Yer pal,
Annalisa
(She copped to it on the air, too, just before the bonus track.)

Wow, wish I'd been posting -- coulda answered the question. Webster mentioned the AL nupitals at the end of his show. (ya didn't think this was in honor of the wedding on The Office, did ya?) He also closed his show with "I'm Yours", and that means we heard Jazn Mrazzz *TWICE* in less than 30 minutes, which is surely against the Geneva Conventions.
And, if you know someone is (or has been) lesbian, why do you"play matchmaker" by fixing her up with a guy? Seems odd to me.
Plus: 2 weeks of "classics". Yikes.

Really? I thought it audio of his baby. Doesn't the song open with that?
-
Oh wait. That's Isn't She Lovely, isn't it?

And, if you know someone is (or has been) lesbian, why do you"play matchmaker" by fixing her up with a guy? Seems odd to me.
But then again, if it works, you get triple word score points. I have been the matchmaker for no less than 4 couples, and possibly a fifth, but I moved away and lost contact before I could be sure. Certainly seemed like they were going to get married.

would someone tell me who AL married?

I have no idea. Some guy who's an old friend of Renee's husband. That's all we know, I think.

So, is that a problem because she was thought to be playing for the other team?

Not personally. I just assumed she was keeping all her options open 'til she found the right person.

OTOH, maybe Irish Greg was full of shit, and AL was never into women to begin with.

Maybe she wasn't into Irish Greg! :)
"So .. Annalisa, do you have any Irish in ye?"
"Nope, I'm 100% Italian."
"hmm, heh... well, would you like a little Irish in ya? Nudge, nudge, wink, wink!"
"uh... um, I'm flattered, but no thanks. It's not that you're not phenomenal and all, you know, but..."
"Hehe ... hey, I was just kidding!... joking! uh... please don't tell Dave.."
(Npte: the above is a purely fictional account which might not have happened.)

No, it wasn't just Irish Greg to me back then. Alicat talked or emailed her about it after the engagement was first made public & AL directly confirmed.
