The Wedding March always reminds me of the music played when soldiers go into battle.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Music played at weddings always reminds me of the music played for soldiers before they go into battle.
The Wedding March has a bit of a death march in it.
At its best, American music is the soundtrack of our long - and often painful - march toward a more perfect union.
Every battalion has its marching songs.
Growing up, I had one very specific idea of what a wedding should be, and that was the wedding of Fraulein Maria and Captain von Trapp in 'The Sound of Music.'
Music can lift the spirit; it can make you cry. Soldiers have marched into battle to music. It's a powerful thing.
We managed to put together a compilation that had some creativity to it. In the meantime I was listening to the free radio stations and I noticed that during their war coverage they were playing these songs born out of the Vietnam War that were all critical of the soldiers.
You can say battle or war or whatever, but in the end, it's music. It's not really violent in intent at all, it's really just about expression and celebrating that in itself.
Every day that is born into the world comes like a burst of music and rings the whole day through, and you make of it a dance, a dirge, or a life march, as you will.
In the procession I should feel the crushing feet, the clashing discords, the ruthless hands and stifling breath. I could not hear the rhythm of the march.
