Princess Nagger’s last day of school was last Thursday (for two whole hours) and already it seems the days are blurring together. That could be a good thing, right? Since that means that Monday doesn’t truly feel like a Monday.
Monday has arrived, though and this week’s theme for Monday’s Music Moves Me is Wedding Songs (songs you hear at a wedding). I decided to mix it up a little bit today so it doesn’t turn into a Wedding Singer type yawn-fest and found some popularly requested songs at weddings.
Let’s start off with a great group that is always fun to dance to, here’s Cobra Starship with “You Make Me Feel…”:
Next is one of my favorite Country stars, here’s Luke Bryan with “I Don’t Want This Night To End”:
Next up is a song I’ve shared before, but it’s definitely worth a repeat performance. Here’s Outasight with “Tonight Is The Night”:
Next up is an artist I adore, here’s Colbie Caillat with “I Do”:
Another song I’ve shared before, but again worth repeating, here’s Train with “Marry Me”:
Can’t leave out one of my all-time favorite artists – I was happy to see some of his songs are on a ‘most requested at weddings’ list – here’s Brad Paisley with “Then”:
And finally, because it’s how I roll, I have to add a song that typically shows up on the “Do Not Play” list at weddings. But ‘fess up, I bet you used to love to dance to this song as much as me and my friends did, right? Here’s Los del Rio with “Macarena”:
And that’s a wrap. Enjoy your Monday!
Now on to the particulars of Monday’s Music Move’s Me:

Great wedding song picks! I like the way you shaked things up to keep us from yawing. I’m sure this is exactly what mine did. lol. You got me up dancing this morning and that’s precisely what I needed. Whoo-hoo, let’s keep the fun going!

Oh, I use to love summer break, well, the beginning LOL.
Like you, I was worried this theme would be all ‘Wedding Singer’ and a lot of the same but I should have known with such an awesome group that these bloggers would mix it up. I am having a bunch of fun.
Loved your picks and the first one is definitely going on my iPod, already have a few of the others on my iPod.
Have a great week 🙂

Nice selection that ends with Macarena, ha! That was fun. Guess Marry Me is my fave among your choices. I followed your blog already; went to Linky site to make sure. Happy Monday. I’m proceeding to your “Haunted Clock” 🙂
Music memes are RIGHT up my alley, but I had some difficulty with this one – probably because I’m not one for weddings or the typical romantic song. But my post is up, and I’m going to the hop with the rest of y’all!

They had the kids doing the Macarena at Sprite’graduation. Even at 5, she looked like she thought it was lame. 🙂
Oh man, I tried so hard looking for the macarena video, but I couldn’t find one!!! LOL Glad someone put it in their line up for this week’s theme ^.^
I’m a fan of all your picks (even the country one!), but I have to say my favorite is ‘I do’-It describes me with my boyfriend and I’s relationship PERFECTLY! 🙂
Have a musical week!
