grumpyguts Posted August 3, 2019 Posted August 3, 2019 We are doing a wedding gig for a couple of gardeners, they have told us they aren't doing a first dance but will be doing a first dig... gonna be in a marquee in a garden. The question is are there any tunes that would be good to add to the set that make any reference to gardening or gardens? But not.. I Never Promised you a Rose Garden or Flowers in the Rain. Whole Lotta Rosie - probably not! Quote
Shaggy Posted August 3, 2019 Posted August 3, 2019 (edited) Good year for the roses - Elvis Costello Kiss from a Rose - Seal Any Wurzles song (I got a brand new combine harvester etc....) If you're going to San Franciso - Scott McKenzie (."...be sure to wear a flower in your hair....") Garden of England - Gerry Rafferty (not much of a wedding song though!) (& for those of a certain age: "I'm Bayleaf I'm the gardener" from "The Herbs") Edit: "English Rose" - The Jam - fab wedding song! Seem to be a lot of "Rose" songs (eg every rose has its thorn) Edited August 3, 2019 by Shaggy Quote
Cato Posted August 3, 2019 Posted August 3, 2019 Isn't every pre WW2 blues song about squeezing plums and trampling on vines? 1 Quote
tauzero Posted August 3, 2019 Posted August 3, 2019 'Edelweiss' from the Sound of Music. 'New Rose' - The Damned 'Yellow Rose of Texas' - trad. 'Goodbye English Rose' is a bad idea for so many reasons, but mainly because it's shoite. Quote
Cato Posted August 3, 2019 Posted August 3, 2019 Theres this. Although I have to confess to feeling unexpected violent urges whilst listening to it. Must just be that sort of song. Quote
