1.0 out of 5 stars Good lyrics, Horrible tune, November 5, 2003

By A Customer

This review is from: New Wedding Traditions Volume I (Audio CD)

I am an avid music lover, and I am familiar with all classic wedding traditions. When I began planning my wedding, however, I was sure that I wanted the soundtrack to be something new, not the typical wedding music. I purchased this CD because other reviewers on this site were so happy with it. When I received it in the mail and listened to it, I immediately threw it away. The music is HORRIBLE. The musicians sing in their throats and the songs are written almost exactly like the early 80's love songs, with the same electronic feel. The music is just plain tacky for a day that is supposed to be so very special. The instrumental versions could be tolerated, but never on my wedding day. Please take my recommendation and stick to the classics, at least in this case.

5.0 out of 5 stars Our Special Songs, May 22, 2004

By A Customer

This review is from: New Wedding Traditions Volume I (Audio CD)

We were looking for songs for the father bride and mother groom dance and we got them on this CD with "A Song For My Son" and " Song For My Daughter"
I am also going to use "A Wedding Thank You" for a dance with my brothers.
And we will dedicate "To Our Family And Friends" to all our guests at the end of the reception.
Nice to know we found most of our special songs on this CD.
