This is a song included on Mariah Carey’s album E=MC².

The lyrics overflow with love, and Mariah’s passionate vocals match the slow-tempo sound beautifully.

If you play it at a wedding, it will likely bring back memories of the couple’s love story leading up to the ceremony and fill everyone with happiness.

It would also leave a beautiful afterglow if used as the closing song at the reception.

It’s a song by Miley Cyrus released in 2017.

She used to have a mischievous image that often stirred up the public, but in this track she showcases a calmer vocal style.

The sound also evokes nostalgia, like remembering the past when the two of you went on dates.

As the lyrics suggest, marriage can broaden your horizons through each other’s interests, letting you discover worlds you didn’t know before.
