I have my 50th birthday coming up – I am a lifelong rock/metal lover but aslo quite open to other stuff too (I like everything from Simon & Garfunkel to The Damned, Eminem Pharell Williams, Blur, Blondie). Pretty much most genres I guess.
Anyway I am having a house party so I was going to create an Amazon Music playlist just for background music (ie, there won't be any (intentional) dancing planned). We have a huge range of ages coming (from my own friends through to teenage nieces and quite a few primary-aged children (about 10 I think) as well as my pensioner in-laws.
So - can anyone suggest any tunes that will be suitable for a wide range of ages – I don't want it to be too biased towards my main love (Sabbath, Maiden, Motley Crue, QOTSA etc) so strugglign a bit knowing where to start (bearing in mind I want it all to be upbeat party music).
You're welcome!
For when the dancing starts....
km79 is sick and needs immediate medical help.
You'd get away with 'Paranoid'. (By the Dickies of course)
and judging by your ahem, taste, you'd get away with a Amazon curated playlist 😉
Van Halen Van Halen
upbeat party music
😀
At the end of the night, when you want your guests to leave.....
Spotify playlists.

Macarena. Well, that and The Birdie Song

*Leaves party and hides in garden with 6 pack of brown ale*
10hrs long so no need to switch songs.
Also don't be afraid to play the classics...
Hmmmm everybody knows Grandma loves Gabba.
The young people dance to this at the local discotheque.
This isn't being very helpful now is it?
🙂
I don't know. You now know about Gabba, Splittercore and can upgrade your experience with Extratone, I'd say your life has been enriched.
A thank you would suffice.

That's what you get for not inviting us.
"Amazon", sorry "Alexa, give me a playlist of songs from adverts"
"OK Johndoh, here's your music from adverts" (or whatever Alexa says)

Well, if it's a partaaaay, you'll need these for a start.
My mum used to have her hair cut just like that Brian Connelly you know.
Haha, got my 50th party coming up shortly. Got my nephew to mix me a playlist with some proper 80s school disco dancing tracks for the evening. Doesn't really fit with your personal favourite genre but might be a couple on there that appeal. I will be adding some 70's and post 80s tracks to the list to keep the party going a bit longer too.

Come on Eileen-Dexys
Don't you forget about me-simple Minds

Dunno if you can open it, but might work. Probably needs some more stuff for the nippers. CottonEye Joe on loop should do it. 🙂
Without poppers and leather arseless chaps, it's not a real party anyway

Oh I do know how to amuse myself
can you tell..im a bit bored
and finally
Party, destroyed..i'm done now, I promise.
Stan Ridgeway - long time since I have seen his name mentioned. I quite like him / Wall of Voodoo but I think he'll be a bit obscure for a party.
I love a party with a happy atmosphere.

He's been hiding in the bushes since 1986.
ok one more then, ..youtube blocked the video in the UK for some reason. Which is a shame, because there just isn't enough morris dancing in today's pop video's. But here it is, in it;s full awesomeness..
