80's theme DJ project
List the songs that you feel should be at a youth dance, featuring exclusively 80's music. 3 hours of music.
Alphaville - Forever Young ABC - Be Near Me Chris De Burgh - Lady in Red Depeche Mode - People Are People Duran Duran - Hungry Like the Wolf Eurythmics - Sweet Dreams Michael Jackson - Beat It New Order - Blue Monday Pet Shop Boys - West End Girls Technotronic - Pump up the Jam (uses word "booty", maybe inappropriate) Tears For Fears - Everybody Wants To Rule the World Just a start. Most of you would be more talented at this than me. |

You need a couple of The Cars tunes. I would suggest Magic. It seems to have a resurgence in popularity amongst BYU loving LDS youth If not Magic then I suggest You Might Think, Hello Again or Drive. Last edited by Flystripper; 11-30-2007 at 07:34 PM. |

how does a playlist work? If I have say 80% of the songs on your playlist, can I import your playlist into WMP and play it or something like that?

I DJ'ed our stake youth dance as a youth in the 80's.
"Let's Go All The Way" only got about 30 seconds into the song before the leaders cut it off. |

If you want just titles, the playlist can give you a good sampling of things to include. If you are really brave, give me your address and I will just rip 4 or 5 discs of 80s mp3s. It will give you about 800 or so songs. Illegally!

Funny, I have only ever heard them play 80s music at youth dances. (Both as a youth in the 90s, as well as more recently when I was a leader.) I would just tell the DJ to play the usual and you'll be fine.
