PLAYLISTS: Valentine's Day - Iowa Style

Well, back when Joe Lawler worked for Juice instead of Cityview, he put together a playlist of songs by Iowa artists for a wedding issue of Juice.

"If you go to a lot of weddings, you start to hear the same songs over and over again. “Maybe I’m Amazed” for the 14th time? How original.

"There are plenty of great songs by Iowa musicians that deserve to be on your wedding playlist. Here’s an assortment that will save your guests from having to hear “(Everything I Do) I Do It For You” again."
- from Joe Lawler in the original article

I asked Joe if he wanted to add anything to what he had written before, and this is what he had to say:

"Wow, I don't remember the process that went into making this list. It was for a wedding issue of Juice, which were always a nightmare to put together. So many venues to call. I think I asked for love songs by Iowans on Facebook or Twitter. There's some solid stuff here, but I'm not sure I listened to them in order before you made this playlist. Someone should get married, use this and report back on how it went."


All the songs are the YouTube playlist unless YouTube took down my video of the Poison Control Center song! Spotify and SoundCloud are missing a few.






As a bonus, I felt this song was appropriate:
