One hell of a song, but dire. I had one friend who, when he discovered his fiance was seeing another man, came home, put the song one with the volume knob all the way to the right, and methodically destroyed everything on his side of the room. Chillingly, amidst all the chaos, he touched not one single thing on his roommate's side of the room. "Wouldn't It Be Nice"? Beautiful, certainly, but hard to forget it's inspired by the music writer's hopeless crush on his sister-in-law. And the stereo version sounds better? Blasphemy! Granted, I haven't compared them side-by-side...and more than one stereo mix exists... Speaking of Nick Lowe, and assuming the bride and groom have a sense of humor, how about "Cruel To Be Kind," featuring scenes from Nick's own (ill-fated) wedding in the video. Hell, what about Dixie Chicks' "White Trash Wedding"? "Put Your Teeth (Up On The Windowsill)" courtesy Southern Culture On The Skids...? Andy "Y'know what I find really weird about people up here?

Well, the Jesus of pop did supervise the remastering I'm speaking of. The original master scriptures were used. I don't see it as an unpardonable sin.
