The Wedding is my most widely read poem, and was written a couple of years after I separated from my first wife, Nita. For reasons unknown, I never heeded my own warning and married twice more. Mick is the voice of the clergyman, while Shona, also from the band, is the disgruntled bride on the recording.

What's the poem all about?... It's about the emphasis put on the day of the wedding and the fallout afterward when things go wrong.
