HELP...need some song choices for wedding
« on: April 22, 2012, 05:39:07 PM »
Hi Everyone,

I'm making a slideshow for my wedding and want to showcase my youth/family growing up in Trinidad.  Any good song choices I can use?

I listed a couple songs below to give an idea of what I'm looking for but it's missing that oomph, emotional factor....preferably a nice, slow, ol time song:

Trini to de bone-David Rudder (first choice)
What you really know-Machel (nice vibe but too many shoutouts)
unity-sundar popo (ok, but missing that certain something)


Thanks in advance for the help!

First off congrats man  :beermug:

Yuh di'n specify if is Trini songs or any songs yuh want, but near the top of my list of Trini songs to be played at my wedding would be Rajin Jheem Jooma by Adesh.  Others:

Progress- King Austin
Portrait of Trinidad- Mighty Sniper (these two if yuh playing Calypso that really captures what TnT about)

Have some reggae and Pop/Rock songs in mind if that is what yuh going for too.
