Really?

Lowest common denominator s--- then.

[????]

Er, it,s a wedding not a rave in hackney

[jctg]

Who said anything about a rave in Hackney?

[titch juicy]

to be honest, if you're really looking for 12 hours worth of music, that's roughly 240 songs- a BIG ask.

I'd find some existing wedding compilations and just add your own bits

[DaveR]

"Isn't test match special Green Onions by Booker T & the MG's?"

It is Booker T but it's called Soul Limbo

[Annette Curtain]

Not forgetting a blast of Dexy's Midnight Runner

Plus some Donna Summer, Bee Gees and 70's disco stuff

Simply Red seems to get the floor filled

But smash Chis Rea's Lady in Red into (digital) pieces

And some dirty bumpy house is always good when you're a few sheets to the wind

[Loz]

If it ain't cheesier than an quattro formaggio pizza, don't bother playing it...

You've got to be kidding me.

[*Bob*]

The worst kind of DJ = the one absolutely and resolutely refuses to deviate from his preset self-serving set.. as the room slowly but surely empties-out and any remainder stay glued to the bar.

[Jah Lush]

Indeed. You gotta feel the room.

[EDjules]

My friend asked each guest to tell them a song they would get up to dance to and put it on a playlist.

[Otta]

End of the night tunes.

Don't stop me now (Queen)

Come on Eileen (Dexy's)

Livin on a prayer (Bon Jovi)

The Rolling Stones - Brown Sugar.

On repeat forever. ;-(

Happy Little Boozer by Korpiklaani goes down well.
