The songs from the Wedding Singer have aroused a lot of commentaries through that they were not totally representing the years that were meant to be the setting of the movie. It was said that the music and culture of the 79-85 were wrongly presented as the music of 1985. OK, they have put too much accent on this side of the film, criticizing that a 1981 released song is not necessary object of a song as pertaining to the 85s. Yes, they got a point, but does it really matter? Why bother to find flaws in a movie that has a love story as a plot and simply connects the songs to the events that take place in the movie for the sake of emphasizing its features.

How many times haven't I watched a medieval story movie and listened as a soundtrack the tunes of rock band instruments such as bass guitar and heavy electronic sounds that I was even expecting for the voice of Bruce Dickinson to flare up among the historical images of the movie?!
