Six to ten song challenge


PongRiddims

Recommended Posts

You are djing to a room (think more Working Men Club than Pacha) of people you don't know, the usual Wedding crowd, you only have half hour, your aim is to leave that room as the greatest DJ of all time.

What songs would you play, and if appropriate, why?

1. Anti Nowhere League - So What (hello? hello? you gonna dance or stand on the side?)

2. Sex Pistols - Anarchy in the UK (yeah, you were never a punk you fat suit wearing clearing in the woods)

3. Frankie - Relax (oooh, it's kicking in now)

4. Clash - White Riot (yeah, it is glass, but I think you can still chuck it)

5. Chris De Burgh - Lady in Red (bring it down a bit, have a smooch and a feel up)

6. Bette Midler - Wind Beneath My Wings (I'm nothing if I'm not inclusive)

7. Psy - Gangnam Style (nan and the grandchildren get a dance before they **** off early)

8. Electric Six - Gay Bar (here we go, shirt off....)

9. MC5 - Kick Out The Jams (thank you and good night)

 

£150, I'll be there by 6:30pm, must be within 2 metres of a double plug socket, no requests.

That's a set everyone can enjoy.

No Schlager, no Hasselhoff Pop career.

No Hasselhoff Pop career, no 'Looking For Freedom'.

No 'Looking For Freedom', no German unification.

Everyone shares the joy of the German peoples being brought together all over again.

'22 Going On 23' is just a great track. One that the bride's family in particular will appreciate. It also gives the best man a chance to redeem himself on air guitar if his best gags fell flat in the speech.

At 5, you lost me Mr P.

Where's the Manilow, then?

Sub Copacabana for the De Burgh rot and you've got me for one more tune. :)

Don't believe a word Chris.

If there's a free bar? He's there for the duration.

Which by my reckoning gives you exactly ten seconds at the end of your set to look around at the bemused / by this time quite scared faces, turn on your heel and swagger off to the bar like a boss.

You'd probably get binned for your lack of mixing skills. :)

See, this is why I stipulated no requests. I can live with Manilow, I can understand how that's a reasonable swap. But now there's a queue of dickheads asking for Queen and Iron Maiden and Emineminem.

Anyway, it's all already lined up on my phone, I can't change it now.

There's a Project Management company a stone's throw from Kings Cross station that does free bar on a Friday evening. I've abused that little treat more than once.
