the twist - chubby usually goes down well , enables a smooth segue into all sorts of choices
also i find a bit of motown or barry white does the trick

I'm not going to get into the listings of what I use coz it always depends on the night/crowd (even the venue) etc. BUT, I think I can honestly say that not ONE of the above has ever been used in anger by me!!!!

Fantastic tune. Unfortunately banned by many venues in Northern Ireland due to sectarian tensions.

Same here - I can recall including it in my top 3 floorfillers during a DJU interview many years ago and would do so now too. Maybe it's just a western thing

Billy Ocean - Love Really Hurts Without You
Soft Cell - Tainted Love (The mashed up version with Rihanna is a surefire winner!)

I'm intrigued by this Ace of base song which keeps being mentioned as a floor filler...
i must download it and take a listen
The only one i have ever heard by the base is "all that she wants"
