DISH// – Wedding Song [Official Video]

A song that seems likely to become a new wedding standard is this track by the band DISH//, with Takumi Kitamura on vocals.

Straightforwardly titled “Wedding Song,” it carries a congratulatory message from friends to the bride and groom.

If you’re looking for a song to dedicate from friends to the couple at the reception, it’s highly recommended, and it would be great for a performance or sing-along as part of the entertainment.

Combined with its lyrics and gentle mid-tempo feel, it overflows with celebratory emotions and a happy atmosphere.

The song with the lyrics “The reason I can smile now is because you were there to cry with me” is truly wonderful.

It’s great for guests to present to the bride and groom, but if you’re confident with the guitar, it’s perfect for the bride to perform for the groom.

I think it will resonate with anyone’s heart.

Thank you for the happiness (solo singing with guitar)

Ketsumeishi, the music group that continues to captivate fans with melodic rap and striking tracks.

The song “Shiawase wo Arigatou,” included on their 3rd album Ketsunopolis 3, has lyrics that evoke wedding vows and leave you with a warm feeling.

If you perform it as a solo with the original key, most of the chords end up being barre chords, so if those are tough for you, try using simpler chord shapes or tuning your guitar down a half-step to make it easier to play.

Also, the off-beat strumming pattern can be difficult to sing over if you’re not used to it, so practice thoroughly before the performance.

As I love and as I please, you’re the only one I won’t hurt.B’z

B'z / As Love Is, As Selfish As I Am, I Won't Hurt Anyone But You

B’z is a rock duo that has produced countless hit tunes that have gone down in J-POP history and continues to lead the scene today.

Their 12th single, “Ai no mama ni Wagabama ni Boku wa Kimi dake wo Kizutsukenai”—used as the theme song for the Nippon TV 40th anniversary drama Saiyuki—has lyrics that convey feelings and determination toward a partner, sure to stir your heart.

Since it uses quite a few barre chords, I recommend playing with a capo on the 2nd fret; even then, the Bsus4 shape is tricky, so you’ll need some grit to tackle it.

It’s a famous song everyone knows, so it’s guaranteed to fire up the crowd even at weddings.
