Great song. Has anyone ever heard Vin Garbutt's rendition of this song? He does an extremely comical introduction to the song, but then proceeds to sing it beautifully. The Vin Garbutt album 'Plugged' features it.
With no doubt, the greatest wedding song ever written. And sadly, I never hear it used at weddings. But what song could say more about a life started and ended together ?
i think it was written for the duke of wellingtons wife,by thomas moore,to cheer her up, as she had smallpox scars. it really is the most beautiful of all songs
Superb song and video.

This video is so beautiful...I've watched it over and over. The music, the photography, the subject...lovely and touching. It
reminds me of "The Dinner Guest" by Joe Gleason on youtube.
