martin472 0 Posted August 2, 2010 Report Share Posted August 2, 2010 Hi Guys,,i have been asked to play 5 songs from the 70s,80s, 90s and 00s for an up and comming 50th birthday party soon. My problem is condensing great decades down to just 5 songs,,any ideas? thanks martin Link to post Share on other sites
vokf 0 Posted August 2, 2010 Report Share Posted August 2, 2010 Pretty difficult! For me, I'd stick with Safe (in the absence of any other info!), and go for tracks that sum up each decade. Checking a few sites for "best selling artists" may help (which is what I briefly did below) For 70's; Queen, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Wings, Bee Gees, Earth Wind & Fire For 80's; Frankie Goes To Hollywood, Wham, Dexy's Midnight Runners For 90's; Aqua, Britney Spears, Take That For 00's; The Black Eyed Peas, Kings of Leon, Lady Gaga ie - try to ensure there is a clearly different sound for each decade. If the client has given any tips re: music preferences, this may help, but be careful not to pick tunes that muddy the idea of each decade. So if you go Whitney, don't play "how will I know" (80's), then "always love you" (90's) Now - if their tastes are a bit non-poppy, then lots of chance to go with some edgy tracks, rather than stick with Wham for 80's :-) Link to post Share on other sites
martin472 0 Posted August 2, 2010 Author Report Share Posted August 2, 2010 for the 70s i have chosen: the rubettes-sugar baby love abba -waterloo bee gees-night fever barry white- the first,last everything blondie-sunday girl any thoughts? and for the 80s..... katrina and the waves-walking on sunshine duran duran-the reflex or girls on film (cant make my mind up) huey lewis and the news-the power of love erasure-a little respect rick astley-never gonna give you up Link to post Share on other sites

Nik Yeah there are some "questionable" tracks on there, but someone must have liked them at the time! Some of the 70s I didnt think were quite as popular as they are on that list... I'm sure I've probably got all of 1980's onwards, and most of the 70s anyway... On another note, are there top 100 hits (or similar) for specific genres I wonder...
