Best wedding song ever (lyrics, not the title): "If you want to be happy for the rest of your life, never make a pretty woman your wife. So from my personal point of view, get an ugly woman to marry you."

Locomotion is always a blast at a wedding reception.

From a wedding this past weekend, a few that were good numbers:

Say Hey (I Love You) - Michael Franti and Spearhead
Moskau - Dschinghis Khan (upbeat number for those sick of Rasputin)
You & Me - Dave Matthews Band

No wedding reception is complete without Steelers Wheel - Stuck in the Middle With You. And from a wedding a few weeks ago, Sandstorm. All us boys had some sweet breakdance fights!

Billie Jean is always a good one to get people up and dancing.

Anything you can two-step too, really. You'll get almost everyone up and dancing: young people trying to learn, older folks who show everyone up with their dancing skills, middle-aged people too.

The popular songs of today (say like Lady Gaga) would get me and my age group up and dancing, but you'll have everyone older sitting down.

Stay away from any songs that you might love, but people can't really dance to, whether it's bar-dancing or two-stepping.

I sent that song to my buddy, I think he secretly went back in time and wrote that song only so that it would apply for him
