We are about 7 months into the year now, and I have spent much of this doing 60th Birthday parties and weddings.

Useful to run through what the popular general tracks are so far for 2008, to recheck whether any of us are missing out on the popular stuff

Rihanna - Please don't stop the music
Duffy - Mercy
Basshunter - Now your'e gone
Amy Winehouse - Valerie

For starters, these have always been asked for at functions I have done.

Valerie was 2007 lol
Plus I'm sure I was playing basshunter last year

Nothing for me really sticks out this year

depends on the crowd and venue ???

low - flow rida & t pain been workin well
forever - chris brown also workin for me

with ressys its kinda whatever is hot this week as it changes so quickly

Have to agree with the Rev. Can't think of anything that sticks out

For me

Flo rider - Low
Estelle feat Kanye West - american

Have been popular, plus just lately

Dizzee Rascal and Calvin Harris - dance wiv me

and friday night got asked for the kid rock song twice.... which I must admit is a catchy tune...

Ok it's not just me then

Mrs Mills......
2008!
Ermmm.....

Bleeding Love had a few requests....
Black & Gold

I've had less requests for new stuff this year than ever. Even in my Thursday residency I'm rarely getting asked for anything new.
It seems to me that there's an 80s resurgence.

All Summer Long - Kid Rock is definitely my commercial song of 2008 so far. I've been ramming it down people's throats for a while now and they are loving it.

Nickelback - Rockstar
Scooter - Jumping All Over The World
In the last couple of weeks in schools has being asked for non-stop!

i'm finding the same all the old 80s and early 90s tracks are popular at the moment
loving it though as its all my years

Personally I think that this year has produced very little that has been worthy of playing at a disco and that's why I think we're getting a lot more oldies requested

Eric Prydz - "Pjanoo" is pretty fab.

For me the top 10 floor fillers has to be...
(This is mainly for under 18's)

Amy Winehouse - Valerie
Duffy - Mercy
Taio Cruz - Come on Girl
Basshunter - Now your gone
Estelle - American boy
T Pain - Church
Soulja Boy - Crank Dat
Flow Rida - Low
The Ting Tings - That's not my name
Leona Lewis - Bleeding Love (Bleedin' Song )

Cascada - Everytime we touch is still being asked for loads!

Winehouse
basshunter
Soulja Boy
leona lewis
cascada

all 2007 lol

Freemasons - When You Touch Me

Absolutely cracking tune and has gone down a storm the last few gigs for all ages.

Also get asked for the Sam Sparro tune a lot as well

Ok heres mine......

Dizzee Rascal - Come dance with me (cracking tune and the youngsters love it)
Ultrabeat Vs Darren Styles - Discolights
Basshunter - All I ever wanted
NE-YO - Closer
Alphabeat - Fascination or 10,000 nights (either rock for the younger crowds)
The Ting Tings - Thats not my name
September - Cry for you
Usher - Love in this club
Wiley - Wearing my rolex
Madonna Ft Timbaland - 4 minutes
Flo Rida - Low (I know this has been mentioned before, but its that good I thought I would mention it again)

I have just finished a weekend doing an 18th and a 16th......all of the above caused hysteria on the dancefloor.......I had to play dizze rascal 3 (THREE) times tonight as they kept bugging me to play it again LOL

Amy Winehouse - Valerie
Duffy - Mercy
Basshunter - Now your gone
Estelle - American boy
Soulja Boy - Crank Dat
Flow Rida - Low

Haha.....you put that in as a joke right......LOL

No - I don't think he did.
I've been asked for this tripe more in recent weeks than when it was first unleased.

When - oh when - is it going to die?

But no, there's very little this year to make a mark.
Calvin Harris is reasonably good, and I like the Madonna 'Give It To Me', although I don't get any requests for it, oddly enough.

Crank that? Soulja boy? Worst bloody tune i have ever heard to be honest. Have played it as a request, would never ever play it off my own back. Rubbish, dance floor emptier, you need to be a hoodie wearer to listen to it. Why,why,why,why????

Sorry about that.

Dont seem to remember anyone asking year of release in this thread.

As the title of this thread Popular Floor Fillers Of 2008 i can see where this is implied and where the ambiguity may lie
we all know the classic floor fillers and i get the feeling this was a thread started about what new this year (from the "7 months in" comment on the original post) and works as a floor filler.

for me its
Madonna-Give it to me
Dizzee Rascal - Come dance with me
Basshunter - All I ever wanted
September - Cry for you
Adele-Hometown glory( the high contrast remix)
Freemasons - When You Touch Me
Black and Gold-sam sparro

Im surprised none of you have mentioned Rihannas - Please dont stop the music.

That seems to still be popular.

Im not actually sure whether the original post was in fact clear on if it had to be released in 2008 to be eligable for the thread.

I understood it to mean released in 2008, but others may see it differently.

For example, due to the popularity of the film.......Mamma Mia is getting a new lease of life on my dancefloors in 2008, so does it count for this thread?

Yep we are talking about releases in 2008 as opposed to old classics coming back to life.

Oh good....well in that case all my sugestions are 2008, so Im ok

last few 18ths, 21st ive done i have been getting asked for

flo rider ft timberland-elevator
neyo-closer
scooter-jumpin all over the world
ultrabeat vs darren styles-discolights

not really floorfillers but gets the teenyboppers going
