(If I could set up a poll like the one for the headphones I would)
Sorry if this has already been done, but:

What one song do you play at pretty much every booking, and is solid gold guaranteed to work with your crowd?

Mine is definitely Jump Around by House of Pain

Varies on gig...but

Dancing Queen usually does the trick

At other gigs, Billie Jean

Currently, Amarillo

Robbie: Angels

Like Gary, it varies a bit but..

Build me up buttercup, still working (wonder if it'll ever fail)

Man I feel like a woman (for the girlies)

Vinnie

queen-dont stop me now
robbie-angels
foundations-build me up...
mastermix- soul banana mix
mj-billy jean

well , mine has to be

Cha Cha Slide
Superman
I am The Music Man
Amarillo
Lonely

and of course, the Crazy Frog

bearing in mind, I do mostly kids parties

Hermes House Band - CLASS!! Their version of The Fast Food Song rocks!


I might have said Angels too, if so many people stated they DID NOT want it played - I've never known one artist have so many people love him and so many loathe him too.

I'll have to go with Buttercup - youngsters seem to like it just as much as anyone over tge age of 30, whereas Brown Eyed Girl is a defo more mature audience only track.

Tonight: (err, last night)

Chesney Hawks - The One and Only
G 'n' R - Sweet Child of Mine
Committments - Mustang Sally

Buttercup abba etc work.


But I have never had an empty floor with Sweat by Inner Circle. All ages seem to like it.

And as a slow one Release Me always works for my punters.

Herbie - Right Type of Mood
Outhere Brothers - Boom Boom Boom
Reel2Reel - I Like To Move It
Jlo - Lets Get Loud

For my normal crowd, these are all floor fillers:

Yeah - Usher
Murder She Wrote - Chakademus and Pliers
Hot Tamale - Mr Vegas with Fatman Scoop

For a Latin crowd, I've found these work for any crowd. I've got others which guaranteed for certain crowds (like a Cuban crowd or a Colombian crowd), but these seem to work for anyone:

Lady - Orquesta La Palabra
Obsesion - Aventura
