VH1 Greatest Artists with Best Songs for Weddings 60-41

May

VH1 released a list of the greatest artists of all-time. However, we would like to take that list and provide our favorite wedding song by those artists. Here is our continuation for numbered artists 60-41. Some artists listed do not perform music considered standard wedding music. If we are speechless on a suggestion, please offer your own as a comment. We will consider making changes to our list.

60 Whitney Houston – Whitney is one of the greatest Pop R&B artists of all-time. She has many hits but if we had to choose 1 song for a wedding we would select Saving All My Love For You.
59 Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers – We really like the song Free Fallin’ but for a wedding our pick is Built To Last.
58 Cheap Trick – Hands down one of the best pop rock love songs is The Flame. However, a great song to dance to is I Want You To Want Me.
57 Iggy Pop & The Stooges – We don’t have a favorite Iggy Pop song for a wedding. Any suggestions? Iggy’s most well known song is Lust For Life.
56 KISS – Beth I hear you calling and telling me that Rock and Roll All Nite is a great part song to fill dance floors.
55 Peter Gabriel – A great love song from the movie Say Anything is In Your Eyes.
54 Public Enemy – We cannot come up with a Public Enemy song for weddings. However, their most prolific song is Fight The Power.
53 Little Richard – Little Richard was a great entertainer and got people moving and shaking including the song Good Golly, Miss Molly.
52 Beyoncé - This is an easy one on so many levels. A great wedding song for all the ladies in attendance is Single Ladies (Put A Ring On It).
51 Billy Joel – Billy is one of the best singer/songwriters of all-time. We select the love song She’s Got A Way which also makes a great first dance song.
50 Sade – The smooth soulful sounds of Sade are captured on many hits. However, our favorite is By Your Side, which can also be a great first dance song.
49 Parliament-Funkadelic – Our favorite song by George Clinton is Atomic Dog. This song will make you want to put your grooves on the dance floor.
48 Rage Against The Machine – Not your stereotypical band to play at a wedding. Do you have any suggestions?
47 Jay-Z – I hope this song counts, as it is great. Beyonce features Jay-Z in the song Crazy In Love.
46 Ramones - A great love song perfect for weddings is Baby I Love You. It can also be used as a first dance song.
45 Al Green – One of the best R&B songs is Let’s Stay Together.
44 Joni Mitchell – One of the best Folk artists of all-time. Our song selection for a wedding would be A Case Of You.
43 Ray Charles – If you want a closing song, Hit The Road Jack would fit the bill. However, we like If I Could as a great father daughter dance.
42 Metallica – A friend is getting married in June and their first dance song will be Nothing Else Matters.
41 Van Halen – A great song to get people on the dance floor is Jump. Who could forget the video with David Lee Roth?
