We had that played as a wedding march when we got married. And since that was in 1964, and we're still together, it must have been the right song.

There's a Copperwebsite :http://wwwmcc.murdoch.edu.au/~gillard/copper/songs.html You'll find the wedding song, plus loads of others.

What good taste, McGrath . . possibly the most beautiful love song in existence . . If we'd known it at the time we'd have had it for our wedding, too!
