Humorous fact about "The Wedding March"

While I am a confirmed "head banger rock fan", I also enjoy many other kinds of music, except old Country, trancer, and electronic trash.

I was recently exposed to a live performance of Bach and found it really interesting. I have loved Handel's Messiah for years.

The other day I was listening to some "Queen" and that made me think of "The march of the Valkries", by Wagner. I bought the CD and began listening to it and lo and behold what should be played right in the middle of it but what most people simply call "The Wedding March".

I found that uproariously funny, since "The March of the Valkries" is about war and battles. How fitting.
