22 - a song that you listen to when you're sad

This is as useless as the happy and angry question, since it doesn't really come into play. I suppose that Samuel Barber's Agagio for Strings might fit (there's a lovely choral arrangement I quite like).

23 - a song that you want to play at your wedding

Since I'm unlikely to get married (we're satisfied with living in sin, thanks), this is a non-starter. However, I have idly mused what such an event would be like, and I can see the opening salvo being the intro to "This Corrosion" and Mussorgsky's "The Great Gate at Kiev" for the processional.

I'm such a sad music nerd is that the only interest I would have in getting married is obsessively putting together the playlist.

AS for the processional, one friend walked down the aisle to the tune from The Pink Panther. A year later, another couple used The Empire Strikes Back.

At that point I admitted defeat - my friends are cooler than I am and nothing I could come up with would beat that.

I've been to a wedding with Empire Strikes Back used for the march down the aisle as well :)

Then again, another wedding I attended used "Love Bites" as the first dance song...

The first one proved more enduring!
