10 Greatest Love Songs On The Magnetic Fields '69 Love Songs'

6. Nothing Matters When We’re Dancing

Nothing Matters When We’re Dancing has presumably been the first dance at numerous weddings over the last twenty years.

All gently strummed ukulele and sentiment it’s a sparkly, soft focus folk-pop confection that works just as well for the happy couple or the tiny bridesmaid being waltzed around on grandad’s feet.

Plus there’s a lovely dig in there if you didn’t get your choice of wedding band. “Among the dreadful tunes/the Songs That we don’t even hear.”

Yep, perfect wedding song. Just don’t scan the lyrics too closely or you’ll find that this song seems to be about a couple dancing, and seeing each other, for the last time...
