Choosing music. That is not my task, but Doc's. She has a music collection that puts HMV to shame because Doc loves music... Doc loves loud music. My only music related job is to give the final approval.
Doc has a wonderful sense of music, and I love learning about music from her. In the last four years, I have learned to love music (still limited to quiet music, however).
Wedding music... a whole new arena. We have the perfect song for the first dance...we have the perfect entrance song.. but tonight we sat down and listened to her short list of music for the big exit after the ceremony.
I will start by saying I loved some of the seven songs that Doc short listed for the exit, however some of the shortlist was surprising. Doc, like me, is excited about getting married, and knows that we will be so exuberant after we have been hitched. As such, she chose to reflect that excitement in the music. Two of these such choices were "Cherry Bomb" by Joan Jett and "Break Out the Make Out" by The Maynards. Although both of these songs are likely to reflect our emotions, I thought it was best to reflect more accurately the emotions of the "congregation", as indicated by my final approval.
