Two I pulled out last week that worked well was
The Genius of Love.. Tom Tom Club
And the beat goes on.. The Whispers.
Maybe being so close to Canada, makes us think alike??
I play many of the same songs on your mix list.(except "Rasputin")
Cecilia...All The time! (Ladies love it!)
Followed by....
Hang On Sloopy..(the mccoys)...Try it you'll see
Men Without Hats - Safety Dance
James - Laid
Violent Femmes - Blister In The Sun
Rasputin? You've got to be kidding! (actually, I've never heard it!)
Sweet - ballroom blitz...... feet tired yet????
Have I mentioned I really don’t play too many slow songs???
mmmmmm..... You south of the border really need to find a copy, of a sample of Rasputin.. give it a listen
HOWEVER, here in Canada, at a typical wedding.... after playing music for 6-7-8-9 hours, and the guests drinking for most of that our parties tend to get a bit WILD! to say the least. Trust me here... 82rpm hip hop just isn’t going to cut it! Get some good fast, wild dance tuned cued up for a rip roaring time!
While your at it.... try some of these:
Spirit of the west - Home For a Rest
