Those songs you'd always want to hear at a pop/rock clubnight

[Guest adameast]

So, my venue launches in September, and I've cheekily assigned myself the pop punk/pop/rock/fun music Friday night DJ slot in the bar (the venue has mad mad beatdown grrr hardcore which I'm too scared to go in to)... So what kind of songs would you want to hear when you go?

I'm thinking every time I DJ I want it to be full of fun singalongs from all walks of music, but stuff nobody will kinda get annoyed at, just, enjoy it coz its fun!

So yeah? Add to the list :

Funeral For A Friend - In To Oblivion

Taking Back Sunday - Cute Without The E

Hellogoodbye - Here In Your Arms, Shimmy Shimmy Quarter Turn

Dashboard Confessional - Hands Down

Brand New - Quiete Things, Sic Transit Gloria (or anything off the first album)

The Used - Box Full Of Sharp Objects, The Taste Of Ink

Boom, Boom, Boom, Boom!! - Vengaboys

Highly recommend The Getaway Plan, especially their songs Shadows, Where the City Meets the Sea and Streetlight. Small Aussie band that broke up a while ago, kinda similar to A Day to Remember, although the songs I just mentioned don't involve the screamo.

Jessica Mauboy - Running Back, Up/Down and Burn

The Calling - Wherever You WIll Go

Bon Jovi - Its My Life, We Weren't Born to Follow, One Wild Night, I'll Sleep When I'm Dead.

Miami Horror - Sometimes

Good Charlotte - Dance Floor Anthem, Misery, Keep Your Hands Off My Girl, Lifestyles of the RIch and Famous

Eminem - Not Afraid

JET - She's a Genius

Amy Meredith - Lying

Quite a bit of that is Aussie stuff, but given the success of Kylie over there, it should catch on.

[ChrisSteeleAteMyHamster]

Speaking of Kylie....maaaan they're advertising her new album heavily over here and I love the song they use more every time I hear it. The video involves lots of naked people I believe.

Whooo!

To be fair though, I love poppy electro Kylie.

[AnnIQ Edison]

Freestyler - Bomfunk MC. Always a party song that gets the singing and dancing going

[ChrisSteeleAteMyHamster]

For a pop night I'd be asking the DJ to play "Steal My Sunshine" by Len.

At uni, we used to go to the local rock/punk/dance club a load and we'd always ask for Prodigy and Chemical Brothers. Happy days.

[New Damage]

Pearl Jam - The Fixer

Nirvana - Aneurysm

Soundgarden - any of: Rusty Cage, Outshined, Big Dumb Sex, Superunknown

Alice in Chains - Man in the Box

Limp Bizkit - Hot Dog

SOiL - Halo

Five Finger Death Punch - Bulletproof

Neil Young - Rockin' in the Free World (although the Pearl Jam cover would be preferable)

Creedance Clearwater Revival - Fortunate Son (This happened once. It was goooood)

Yeah, I go to dirty places.

In fact a couple of weeks I was bored so I made a 'dirty disco' playlist on Spotify for this type of thing.

I completely understand these suggestions

But there is a "rock" club in the big venue in town, which plays all these and kills the dancefloor, unless its Pendulum at 2am and your off your tits just for the "fuck it i lied..." line
