Apologies for my first suggestion, I didn't read the full "second marriage" bit. More just inapprorpiate for any wedding really.

I know someone who went to a wedding in the eighties, and "two out of three" was played AS THE BRIDE WALKED DOWN THE AISLE. Talk about brutal honesty!
How about "Won't get fooled again" by the Who.
Also "Deja Vu" by CSN -

A real tear-jerker to boot. You probably wouldn't want to play it at a funeral to be quite honest, it could easily push the gathered several over the edge.

Not A Second Time by the Beatles. Has any other two minute pop song provided such rich material for semiotic study at Finnish universities?
Also Oops! I Did It Again by Britney of course. Richard Thompson does an excellent version, as he demonstrated on Tom Robinson's show the other day.

Shall we do a thread soon about semiotics and rock? And how de saussure's theories work for us all when we listen to obscurist b-sides?
I think it would be a winner. Though difficult to set up at 9.05 at night when some of us are tired.

There. I have just exhausted my "knowledge" on semiotics. Three years at Uni well spent, I think you'll agree.

We need more rock graduate theses! I'm drawing up the proposal for "Waterloo Sunset: Icon, Index, or Symbol?" right now.
As for an awful second marriage tune, how about "Some Girls are Bigger Than Others"? In fact, I'm going to go out on a limb and say every Smiths song is innappropriate for every wedding ever.

Scott to Cubitt: "See that King's Cross? a poky little building made out of public convenience brick whose most important platform is not only invisible, J.K. Rowling MADE IT UP? That's yours, that is! Not a proper station like this St. Pancras I've just designed! You go away and design Hay's Wharf, while I get my grandson to invent the red telephone box...what do YOU know about aesthetics?
Meanwhile. this next track's by the Llama Farmers..."

I suggested that You're the one for me could be followed by The Rezillos (track 3 from Can't stand The Rezillos). It broke house rules apparently

The house rules forbid one to
"Describe or encourage activities which could endanger the safety or well-being of others"
Clearly the proposed juxtaposition of the Smiths and the Rezillos fits the bill! If the moderator had not acted swiftly and decisively, we may have been subject to speculative sonic distress.
Link to this forum: Totally inappropriate music for a second marriage wedding reception
But surely it must be all right to mention the name of a music track, by a music artist, on the 6music discussion board? Surely?
I'm going to try again on your behalf:
The third track on "Can't stand the Rezillos" is entitled "Tonight you're going to get your head kicked in". It just is.
There, I've said it.
If they ban mention of that they're going to have to ban mention of "Saturday Night's All Right For Fighting" by Elton John.

As well as Antisocial by Skrewdriver - although to be honest they should be banned

Have to take your word for that then. The two singles I have don't give a line-up. Both from '77 on Chiswick records so I'm ready to be enlightened. I used to be a bit of a fan until they went all NF and silly.

It's on radcliffe's wiki page, so you don't have to trust my notoriously hazy grasp of the facts. Just theirs.

Is your grasp of facts any more hazy than Wiki's though. I seriously doubt it.
Have you read the page for a certain Ms Douglas recently?

There's a picture of the band on the back of one of the singles but they all look about 12 so its hard to tell. They are trying very hard to do the hard man stare though. Bless.
