wedding is this weekend. And I was debating between 2 songs for when they introduce us.
It was either Ice, Ice Baby or another song. I went with this one
Wait a second, I didnât click the link until now.
You know what that opera is about right? Dude read the translation of O Fortuna before you pick that song.
no clue, it just sounds awesome[/quote]
O Fortune,
just as the moon
Stands constantly changing,
always increasing
or decreasing;
Detestable life
now difficult
and then easy
Deceptive sharp mind;
poverty
power
it melts them like ice.
Fateâ??monstrous
and empty,
you whirling wheel,
stand malevolent,
well-being is vain
and always fades to nothing,
shadowed
and veiled
you plague me too;
now through the game,
my bare back
I bring to your villainy.
Fate, in health
and in virtue,
is now against me
driven on
and weighted down,
always enslaved.
So at this hour
without delay
pluck the vibrating string;
since through Fate
strikes down the strong, everyone weep with me!
I sent this to She Say when she was living out of the country with her parents 17 years agoâŚshe picked up the mail at the post office and put the tape in the car with her mom and dadâŚluckily she recognized the song before the chorus came onâŚ
What about Stairway to Heaven? You could wait until the climax of the song when the solo starts, and then pull a Yugoslavian SKS assault rifle out and blow away everyone in the room, except for your bride of course, and tell her you did it because you really wanted to be alone with her.
