    Come On Eileen
    That song from dirty dancing
    Dancing Queen
    Any 80's power ballad
    Anything by Steps or S Club 7

    I've been to a few weddings in the last year or so, and the music is always the same. I went to a mate's wedding over the summer, and his wife picked all the songs that she wanted playing, she was adamant that these songs had to be played. I don't know why she bothered because it turns out all the songs she had chosen were what gets played at every other wedding anyway - predominantly 80's pop shit!

    I went to a weekend last month, a young couple, in their 20's most recent song played was Brown Eyed Girl. Fucking brutal, I pounded Jack and Cokes till I didnt know what I was listening to.

    I got married three weeks ago, I'm 24, my wife is 22.

    We were introduced to Rev. Horton Heat's Big Sky. Our first dance was a Social Distortion song, we danced to Thin Air, a Weezer song...

    Of course there was token old songs too, but we made sure to play good music for ourselves.
    -one thing to remember, always have a good time, all the time

    It's funny because it's actually a pretty good song and it's funny because it's a cliché wedding song that I can see you getting sloshed to.

    the electric slide
    “I know this song so well, I can smoke a cigarette, have a drink, brush my teeth, take a shit, and mow the lawn while singing it. But I'll only be doing a couple of those things during this version.”

    Everything I Do I Do It For You
    Endless Love
    Unchained Melody
    Let's Get it On

    and the Cher one that had Winona Ryder in the video, maybe called It's In His Kiss.

    I see someone already mentioned Dancing Queen
    I'll add the BeeGees, Stayin' Alive to that list. And if you're in Ireland "I'm in the mood for dancing" by the Nolan Sisters.
    If I had my way, it'd be Blame it on the Boogie on repeat all night.
    I'll Ride The Wave Where It Takes Me

    my god, what is wrong with you people? if any of those songs were on the playlist (after the obligatory first awkward hour of bad party songs and grandma-pandering) at my wedding, the DJ would be out the effin door.

    like, really - the fucking Bee Gees? What decade is this? haha but no seriously, that Time of My Life shit from Dirty Dancing? No wonder the divorce rate is so high.

    I'm all about Let's Get It On, though. That's just fun and sexy. And We Are Family is perfect for the whole... family.


    This probably doesn't fit at all, but Springsteen's Glory Days and Dancing in the Dark come to mind. Wedding receptions in my family turn into raucous drunken dance parties within a couple hours (as all receptions should), and the best shit for that is just the upbeat, fun stuff. So I guess we can let the Bee Gees back into the party. But leave Baby and Swayze in the goddamned corner.

    Conversations getting dull
    There's a constant ringing in my ears
    Sense of humor's void and numb
    And I'm bored to tears.......

    Brown-eyed girl
    All I have to do is revel in the everyday....then do it again tomorrow

    They say every sin is deadly but I believe they may be wrong...I'm guilty of all seven and I don't feel too bad at all
