Song - I wanna grow old with you

Lisa, on April 15, 2008 at 4:37 PM Posted in Community Conversations 0 8

My fiance-to-be stunned me the other day when he told me he had thought about the last song we should dance to at our wedding. (who knew he was thinking of these little things as well!!)

He wants to dance to the song 'I wanna grow old with you' from the Wedding Singer soundtrack. (not the version that Westlife does)

The problem is -- every version I find has Billy Idol doing the preamble about letting first class passengers do whatever they want. And I don't want that as part of the song.

Has anyone come across a version of this song that is JUST the song?

    Too funny, we're also using that song as our last dance song for the evening! We even bought the soundtrack just to get that song. Ours has Billy Idol at the beginning as well, but even the most retarded DJ can cut off that first 30 seconds. If you're not having a DJ, you could play around with a sound software to see if you can chop off that beginning part. Good luck!

    Ha! I love that movie and that song. I was having trouble finding a version like that too but I have a MS Sound Company in my town that can edit it for me. I was thinking about using it for our unity candle lighting or the cake cutting.

    LOL we are all using the same song. A friend found the song by Westlife on Limewire.

    We haven't come to any final decision yet but my fiance and i are considering that song for our last dance also!! if you are using a DJ, don't worry about the billy idol part- they can easily just start the song when adam sandler starts singing.

    That is a very fun song! If you're using a DJ, most will have editing software to assist you in editing the song just the way you want it. For example: I have had a few clients use this song for Cake Cutting and I have edited the Billy Idol prelude out of the song and have also looped the chorus twice to provide a song that in total is about 2 1/2 minutes as opposed to about 1 minute for the original movie version. Make sure to take time into account as if you don't loop or repeat it most of your guests may have just made their way to the dance floor by the time the song is finished. Best of luck!

    OMG - what a great idea.. I haven't even put any thought in the last dance song. I love that movie! But I agree below, your dj will be able to edit that part out.

    Thanks for the good idea!!!

    If you are having a dj at your wedding you can have him start the into from where you want, he can cut out the talking part, we are using this during our cake cutting also, without the Billy Idol part.
