Biografía:
The Wedding Present es una banda post punk formada en Leeds, Inglaterra, en 1985 de las cenizas de The Lost Pandas. El sonido de la banda fue evolucionando desde el punk a un exquisito pop en la vena de sus obvias influencias, The Fall, Buzzcocks y Gang of Four.
Hay quien dice que The Wedding Present escribía las mejores letras para dedicar a mujeres y quizás sea cierto.

"Pleasant Valley Sunday"
(Gerry Goffin - Carole King)
Covered by The Wedding Present
Verse 1:
F#
The local rock group down the street
G#
Is trying hard to learn their song
F#
They serenade the weekend squire
G#
Who just came out to mow his lawn
Chorus 1:
A D A D
Another Pleasant Valley Sunday (Sunday)
A D A D
Charcoal burning everywhere
D flat F# B A# G#
Rows of houses that are all the same
B G#
And no-one seems to care
Verse 2:
See Mrs. Gray, she's proud today
Because her roses are in bloom
And Mr. Green, he's so serene
He's got a TV in every room
Chorus 2:
Another Pleasant Valley Sunday (Sunday)
Here in status symbol land
Mothers complain about how hard life is
And the kids just don't understand
Bridge:
D flat
Creature comfort goals
They only numb my soul
And make it hard for me to see
My thoughts all seem to stray
To places far away
I need a change of scenery
Chorus 3:
A D A D
Another Pleasant Valley Sunday (Sunday)
A D A D
Charcoal burning everywhere
D flat F# D flat F#
Another Pleasant Valley Sunday
D flat F# D flat
Here in status symbol land
F# [w/intro riff]
Another Pleasant Valley Sunday (another Pleasant Valley Sunday)
