I will never marry a man that, upon being alerted to some sort of social wrongdoing, declines to intervene. Examples of such wrongdoings: a woman being disrespected in any way, bullying, thievery, old people falling.

I will never marry a man whose idea of the perfect wedding song is Amazed by Lonestar, Don't Wanna Miss a Thing by Aerosmith, or pretty much any song by Celine Dion. That is just not the boy for me. Not that I'm not willing to compromise... actually it's true, I'm not. That's kinda the whole point of this series. Anyways!

I could go haunting indie, like the Lassie Foundation's El Rey (which I've uploaded here for your amusement if you so choose) or Girls by Death in Vegas (which you can watch here, whilst trying not to look at the images). Both are simple but effective, I think.

Or perhaps more straightforward with a bit of edge like Killing Me Softly, or Lovers in a Dangerous Time.

There's the possibility of just going with one of our/my favorite songs, like Layla or In Your Eyes. Both of which must be played at some point, really.

Finally, there's always the downright odd: White Wedding or About a Girl (Nirvana).

There's a decent list here from which I drew some of my samples (I don't normally think about these things, I promise - I'm not that kinda girl). But it really bugs me that it includes U2's One, which is so clearly not a love song at all.

This is part one in an ongoing series of entries that could, as Matt would attest, be unlimited in length.

I will never marry a man that, while undertaking his morning bathroom activities, turns the faucet on the highest level of blasting power and leaves it as such for the entire duration of said activities.
