I just found this music video of the great 80's song White Wedding by Billy Idol, and using footage from Final Fantasy X.

I love this song and the video fits it well.

(btw, came across this while creating an MP3 playlist of love related songs for my wedding )

The song indeed is great, and as I saw it was covered by a lot of bands. I like the Deathstars version. The song fits well with the Final Fantasy theme, but I think it's a bit slushy

Considering the wedding theme it is always going to be "slushy".

The original Billy Idol video is really funny to watch these days too. I forgot how mad his facial expressions were when he was young. And the video really is a true low budget 80's one.

I read something interesting about the original video yesterday. In the original concept for the video Billy forces the ring on to the brides finger and cuts her knuckle. When they were making the video his girlfriend of the time was playing the bride and she insisted that they really cut her finger to make it as realistic as possible! But when MTV received the video they cut that part out.
