Recommend me a slow-dance wedding song that's not overused!?!
Question: I'm really looking for something romantic, slow, and not very well-known. Song can be in any language. I'm tired of the over-used ballads with a lot of screaming. I don't like corny ballads.. Although Josh Groban's ballads are cute, he hits too many high notes in 1 song and the ones I really like aren't really wedding material. Maybe something from an indie band? Or tell me your favorite slow-dance songs?

I used "All I Have" from Beth Nielsen Chapman. I got lots of compliments on it. You can listen to it at http://www.bethnielsenchapman.com/discog... It's on the release from 1990. Good luck!
My sister used Elvis's "Love Me Tender", and while Elvis is pretty wellknown, I don't know that many people play him at their wedding. Another song you could try is "I'll Be Loving You Always" by Frank Sinatra.
I say if you totally love country music, take your pick from any of your favorite artists!
I probably know that the song When I Said I Do with Clint and Lisa Hartman Black is positvely overused... but I love the song Keeper of the Stars by Tracy Byrd.
But I absolutely love Your Everything by Keith Urban and It's Your Love by Tim McGraw and Faith Hill! Also Garth Brooks is my number 1 all time favorite and my idol; a perfect favorite Garth song of mine is The Dance! I'm big fans of all of these artists!!!

It's actually called "The Wediing Song" by Noel Paul Stookey.

These are both well-known but not -overused The Reason by Hoobastank and Crazy Love by Van Morrison.
Also, non well-known, but sweet and recognizable; "Grow Old With You", the song that Adam Sandler sings at the end of the Wedding Singer:
I dont know if these are over-used at weddings. But here are a few ideas...
Garth Brooks - To Make You Feel My Love
Johnny Rivers - Slow Dancing
Celine Dion - The Power Of Love
Stylistics - Betcha By Golly Wow
Roberta Flack - The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face
I'll suggest a DIFFERENT Beth Nielsen-Chapman song "Dance with Me Slow".
Some others that haven't been beaten to death that are really pretty:
Beach Boys "Forever" (Make sure this is the 1970 version NOT the crappy 1990s remake with John Stamos!)
Beach Boys "Don't Talk (Put Your Head on my Shoulder)" (PET SOUNDS album)
Stevie Wonder "I Believe When I Fall in Love it will be Forever"
Death Cab for Cutie "I Will Follow You Into the Dark" (I haven't been to any weddings in the past year but this is a nice slow romantic alternative tune that fits the occasion I think...and probably isn't burnt out.)
