Classic Tim Hawkins Skit On Inappropriate Wedding Songs

This classic Tim Hawkins skit on inappropriate weddings songs had me cringing and cracking up at the same time.

Weddings are always such a wonderful celebration filled with emotional tears, dancing, and if you’re really lucky, a slice of wedding cake at the end of the night. But if you’re the friend who invited Tim Hawkins to sing whatever song he wanted as your bride walked down the aisle, you may be in for a few cringe-worthy moments, too.

Tim Hawkins is a 52-year-old Christian comedian, singer, and songwriter known for his parodies to famous songs like Carrie Underwood’s “Jesus Take The Wheel”, and ‘Sounds of Starbucks.’

He also is a clean stand up comedian who delivers hilarious stand-up routines on marriage, parenting, and homeschooling. Tim started his stage career in 2002 when he decided to use his God-given talent to make people laugh.

In this classic video, Tim shared a little insight into how his brain works. In the story he shared, a friend had asked him to sing at his wedding. He joked that he was asked with only two weeks’ notice because the original singer backed out.

Tim asked the friend, “Well, what do you want me to sing?” The friend replied, “you pick.” This was not the thing to say to a sharp-witted comedian known for poking fun at situations! Tim’s mind immediately went to what would be the funniest songs he could sing as the bride walked down the aisle. His selections also happen to be probably the most inappropriate songs for the occasion!

At this point, Tim thought about how he could make this a wedding that everyone would remember. He then went on to explain some of his top picks for inappropriate wedding song title choices.

He sang snippets from Tina Turner’s “What’s Love Got To Do With It?”, REO Speedwagon’s “Heard It From A Friend” and The Car’s “My Best Friend’s Girl”.

He stops for a minute as the crowd settles down from laughing and says, “Oh, there’s worse,” and continues his list.

It continued with U2’s “I Still Haven’t Found What I’m Looking For,” and the Rolling Stone’s “You Can't Always Get What You Want,” But it was the Aerosmith song he chose for the finale that really had folks cringing in their seats. Can you guess which song it was?

Tim Hawkin’s really gave his audience a laugh with his scenario, it just goes to show any time he is allowed to play any song he wants as he wants, he will propose a tiny bit of chaos for the sake of some smiles.

A Prayer for Contentment and Simplicity amidst the Holiday Rush - Your Daily Prayer - December 13

As my heart becomes more aligned with God's heart, through increased time in praise and His presence, my desires shift to His desires. And I start to see that I already have, or am in the process of unfolding, that which my heart ultimately longs for. And my contentment with the simple and small surrounding me swells.
