What genre are you looking for?

There is (imho) a really good drum & bass tunes called "song for lovers" one of the verses has the words "i'm tired of running around, me and my baby's gonna settle down" which could be ok if that genre would be acceptable as it isn't too heavy

Ideally something people can recognise and may bring a smile to their face.....Rather than something only a select few would know.

The Book Of Love - Peter Gabriel.

Not suitable for the stag night bit but for everything else, you'll have them blubing in the aisles. & if you just use the one song it will cut down on the length of presentation.

Thank me later.

That's OK. Thats what I really like about PH, sometimes you can help out someone you don't even know. Its a bit of a shame because I'd really like to see the video now!

Anyway, happy to have helped & I'm glad it went down so well. smile
