linch April 13, 2004 Share linch Member April 13, 2004 Well, I gotta meet up with the DJ in a few weeks to give him a list of any specific songs we want him to play at our reception. We both want some good 80's and 90's music, and have compiled a short list thus far. I'm curious to hear what some of your favorite tunes to dance to were back then? I hoping someone will mention some of the classics that I completely forgot about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PuppySurprise April 13, 2004 Share PuppySurprise Member April 13, 2004 Electric Slide pwns j00 Tootsie Roll Play "I just died in your arms tonight"...classic SNL skit at a wedding where that song is used. I can get the clip for you and post it up if you are interested. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[Mmmm]Homer April 13, 2004 Share [Mmmm]Homer Member April 13, 2004 Rapper's Delight At our wedding we had a bunch of 30's and 40's American and Frnech tunes, good for the older people to dance to. Get some CD's from your local library, more reliable and better quality than mp3's if you are mixing your own discs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PuppySurprise April 13, 2004 Share PuppySurprise Member April 13, 2004 We did the opposite at my sister's wedding reception...we played "Back That Azz Up" and my great aunt who is in her 70s was "gettin' jiggy wit it". She loved it and even had me put it on a disc for her to listen to in her car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SheepNutz April 13, 2004 Share SheepNutz Member April 13, 2004 No wedding would be complete without someone singing "Total Eclipse of the Heart" by Bonnie Tyler, but you also have to add in the F-word several times.

auggybendoggy April 14, 2004 Share auggybendoggy Member April 14, 2004 dude, linch!! rappers delight (sugar hill gang) is a definite!! Dont miss that one what ever you do dont do the flippin ymca dance man i hate that. if you wannt get rid of people do the makarana (spell). if you wanna put people to sleep have your sister or close friend to The rose. if you wanna get down and boogie throw down the bee-gees man. those guys are class a funky. Cool and the gang get bring it too. and then close it off with "ride the lightning" by metallica capped with a short tune from the forest gump soundtrack. that will confuse the heak outta everyone On a serious note, rappers delights a must. safety dance is always a good ol tune. how bout the breakfast club music. Gawd i hated those songs. hahahahaa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
linch April 14, 2004 Author Share linch Member April 14, 2004 SAFETY DANCE!! w00t!! We pretty much have all the slow songs picked out, so we just need to diverse songs to get the young and old up on the dance floor. I'm going to do up a list this friday and download a lot of songs and see what will fit in. Maybe I'll post up on the songs I (we) decide on adding to the list.

[VI]ROosTEr April 14, 2004 Share [VI]ROosTEr Member April 14, 2004 You gotta play It takes Two by MC Rob Base and DJ E-Z Rock. You just have to make sure that you get the version that has the intro .. "You are about to be possessed by the sounds of MC Rob Base and DJ E-Z Rock....Hit It" It is a must have at all wedding receptions/my 8th grade dances.
