| Even though 22 years have passed, I can still remember the words to loads of them! We had the book "Come and Praise" as well as a slightly nutty music teacher who always seemed to teach us obscure folk songs. ("Step we gaily on we go, heel for heel and toe for toe, all for Maree's wedding...", and the unforgettable "Melons! Won't you buy some lovely melons..." Oo-er missus!)What about you? |

I can only remember one, it was "Stand up, clap your hands,shout thank you lord", It has always stuck in my mind even after 30 years, because we all used to stand up and clap our hand's at that part of the song  ) |

| I expect that even when 44 years have passed you will still remember them......what we have learnt in childhood seems to stay embedded. I certainly remember the songs from school 50 years ago.....there was one folk song called 'Dashing away with a smoothing iron' and it went through the days of the week, saying what would be done with the washing on each day, from hanging, drying, ironing and airing! Another was called 'Cherry Ripe' and another 'As I was going to Strawberry Fair'.It would be worthwhile inputting more sensible, helpful songs for today's youngsters, since it will probably remain with them for life. |

| I hope you went to a religious school. Otherwise, what the heck were you doing singing hymns in a public school? I was in school a lot longer ago than you were, but we didn't sing religious songs. We did sing some strange ones, though--"Sleep, Kentucky Babe" (we were in NY), "The Happy Wanderer," and, in middle school, a really weird one about JFK's assassination. "A young man rode with his head held high, under the Texas sun, and no one guessed that a man so blessed, would perish by the gun..." Isn't that just awful?Edit: Anigma, you are quite right. Studies show that people remember songs, even themes from commercials and TV shows, for a very long time. I think that's why Schoolhouse Rock was so successful. My son can still "sing" the preamble to the Constitution. It's much harder to memorize that simply as prose instead of a song. |

| YES!! Many of them.Ewe a bleateth after calf, both after calf the cow. Something, something buck to verdict, merry sing coo coo.It was called "The Spring Song" and I think it was Welsh. I still get it stuck in my head from the 6th grade. Believe it or not I found it used in the original version of the movie "WIcker Man". Ain't Netflix great!!Now, to look it up so I won't have it stuck in my head for the remainder of the day. Great question-Thanks!!PS-Thanks Kerry, now I have "Rise and Shine" going through my head. Not too bad, I can remember most of those words! |

Where and How to Start?
There’s so much to do, it can be mind-numbing. Don’t worry. I planned and held my first wedding in two months and my second wedding in three months. If you have the luxury of a year or more, feel lucky!
Wedding Invitation
Ideally, invitations should be mailed out 6-8 weeks before the big day to give guests time to make arrangements to attend and RSVP back to you.
Wedding Attire
Where I come from, buying a tuxedo is virtually unheard of. Renting is probably the way to go to realize the ultimate savings on the groom’s attire.
Wedding Flowers
Cheap doesn't mean that your wedding flowers can't be beautiful. All flowers are lovely no matter what they cost.
Wedding Ceremony Decoration
Most wedding ceremonies are short and sweet, so why spend a majority...
Wedding Music
Music for your wedding ceremony could consist of live or recorded performances.
Wedding Photography
Pictures are priceless, and you want to be sure you have plenty of good pictures of your special day.
Wedding Favors
Some brides don’t like the idea of giving gifts to her guests, but we think it’s a nice gesture as a thank you...
Wedding Food
Wedding food can take a huge chunk out of your wedding budget.
Wedding Cake
Your wedding cake is the centerpiece of the reception. It is a scrumptious dessert as well as part of a tradition
Wedding Party
The question of whether or not to serve alcohol at your wedding is one that can cause dissension in the ranks of family.
