What are some of the most well known songs? You know, stuff like swing, from the 40's and such. The only one I can think of is "Sing Sing Sing" right now... My grandparents would love it (my grandpa played drums in a swing band back in the day) and I like it too, I think it would be something different for a wedding. So far I have a lot of oldies, like beatles, the temps, "shout", "the twist", rolling stones "wild horses"... Guess I have an older music lovers soul inside me somewhere!

I'm a big Glenn Miller fan so here are a couple of Big Band songs that are really good and well known
"Moonlight Serenade" - this is a slow song. Frank Sinatra once recorded this with lyrics and it is truly as beutiful song!
"In the Mood"
"String of Pearls"
Have fun!

They have lots of slower stuff too but I'm a bigger fan of the fast stuff! We played a lot of swing at our wedding too, but try to throw in some of the slow stuff too. A lot of the 40s was more romantic, slow dance stuff.
