funkymook 0 Posted February 17, 2010 Report Share Posted February 17, 2010 The original Egyptian type tune is called Sand Dance, made famous by Wilson, Keppel & Betty - 1930s' British Music Hall stars - I'm sure a search will bring up many versions of this. and Midnight at the Oasis..... You Belong to Me mentions pyramids - lots of versions available Madness - Night Boat to Cairo I'll try to think of some more..... http://www.indieretrodj.com http://www.souldisco.co.uk Link to post Share on other sites

Teez 0 Posted February 17, 2010 Report Share Posted February 17, 2010 Also don't forget 'When you believe' and other tracks from The Prince of Egypt During the pre-dance session why not play some arabic music. Loads on Spotify or try http://www.mazika.com/default.aspx (choose the English version at the top) there are also some compilaitions on iTunes & Amazon http://www.amazon.co.uk/s/qid=1266446862/r...;sort=salesrank Also get some belly dance music and see if any of the girls want to try it on the dance floor. Cairo is the centre for belly dancing (I know I've seen loads of shows there) so that's another way of bringing some fun to the evening. :joe: Link to post Share on other sites
