Aretha: You Send Me

The best revenge on a degraded culture is ridicule, contempt, and good music. Matt Labash on the do's and dont's of wedding songs:

Don’t select any Chris Brown numbers, unless the values you want to celebrate at your wedding are bad taste and wife-beating. Specifically that bane of every “viral” wedding, Brown’s tune “Forever,” which started the showboat wedding-dance production. Just as bad are those awful “remix” dances, the ones that require the couple to begin with something slow and staid, until a newer, funkier song comes on. At which time you and your groom pull sunglasses from your bridal cleavage, and prove what horrible sheeple you are, as you obediently sniff the anal pheromones of the throngs of halfwits who have preceded you, all of whom upload videos of themselves gyrating like asses on the most important day of their lives.

What does he like? Eric Felten, Aretha, Sam Cooke, Johnny Hartman, Wilson Pickett, and lots more. Enjoy:
