My fiancee and I have yet to settle on a song choice to dance to at our wedding. However, I did manage to convince her to narrow it down to "Only With You" Holland version, or "Forever" acapella Hawthorne version. It's honestly a toss up from here.

"Only With You"seems to be the more tender, wedding dance type of song. But the acapella version of "Forever" certainly has its moments...

We can't decide, what do you fellow fanatics think?

Only With You...that thing screams wedding. One of Mike's most gentle lyrics.

If you go with the acapella "Forever", be sure to fade before Brian's shriek at the end.  Grin

Only With You -  but the live version that's "around". Far superior.

Though I'd ditch both and go with the disco version of Here Comes the Night -  it was made with dancing in mind.

"I'd love just once to see you"

Have the dj turn it up at the end.

If not, "Only With You"

My vote would go to "Only with you" - Holland version. Don't think Dennis' re-cut was that good. Carl outsings him totally on that tune

To sum it up, they blew it, they blew it consistently, they continue to blow it, it is tragic and this pathological problem caused The Beach Boys' greatest music to be so underrated by the general public.

I had made a mix when the POB reissue was new of the entire Holland version with the Dennis version added as a tag, kind of like the circulating live version. It was beautiful.  Computer had tanked, but I should make that again.

I personally dislike "Only With You" -- part of the reason probably is it's perfect for a wedding.

"Forever" though has more of a wedding-specific lyric: the forever thing and all that.

I'd personally go for Forever seeing as that acapella version is just pure romance, but then, Only With You does have a beat.


Or 'Chapel Of Love'  Grin

Congratulations, btw
