Indian Love Call
Listener Submission: Most Unusual Wedding Music Story

Back in the '50s we attended the wedding of one of the couples in our group of friends. One of the music choices the couple had made was for the bride to sing to the groom: "Indian Love Call". Somehow, hearing the bride sing "I am calling you—oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo" sent our row of friends into fits of giggles that lasted through the rest of the ceremony. Hopefully, we were seated back far enough for them not to hear our not-too-well-concealed merriment.
