Party Songs – Types of parties
Party songs are so popular because you can hear them no matter where
you go. Even if you don’t want to, you will eventually end up singing
along without even realizing that you know all the lyrics. However, the
term “party” is a general one and the songs which you would play at one
party could be completely inappropriate for another venue. Let’s take a
look at the different types of parties and the right songs for each
occasion in just a few words.
In the case of a birthday party, the situation is quite simple.
First, you have to take a look at your guests. If you know their age and
a few things about their personality, you will easily create the perfect
playlist for the entire event. A good thing about looking for party
music is that you don’t really have to keep in touch with new trends.
What was popular 10 years ago can still be great for today’s parties.
For example, some of the best songs to be played on a birthday party
include: You Shook Me All Night Long from AC/DC, Sir Mix A Lot’s Baby
Got Back, Girls Just Want To Have Fun, Let’s Get It Started, Thriller
and YMCA.
If you are looking at a big wedding, you will have a whole different
playlist to work with. Traditional families will go for some old school
romantic songs, such as The Way You Look Tonight by Sinatra or Can’t
Help Falling In Love. However, in the last few years, the situation has
changed when it comes to style. Sure, many people still like listening
to these romantic songs during a wedding, but a lot of couples are
starting to bring some hip hop or rock elements into their party. Even
after the fall of Vanilla Ice, you can still hear Ice, Ice Baby at a few
less-conservative weddings and you can also listen to Billy Jean.
 Another type of party is the regular hang-out which happens all over
the world. This is where everything is allowed. You can just take a look
at some of the best hits of the last 50 years and you are ready to go.
Instead of trying out new beats and listening to songs which might or
might not appeal to your guests, you should simply go for songs which
you know everyone loves, but which were probably forgotten. This way,
you will bring back nice memories and everyone will remember your party
as being the best when it comes to music.
You might want to change the playlist a bit if you want people to
dance. Some of these songs might sound great, but you have to be a
professional dancer to be able to enjoy them physically. This is why you
should pick a few songs which have specific dance moves which people
already know, such as YMCA or even Beat It. You can also add a few slow
and romantic songs which are really easy to dance to.
In the end, there are just a few things that you need to consider.
First, you have to make a list of the best songs you know people will
love to listen. After that, figure out what type of party you are going
to host and if people will want to dance or not. According to the
result, you will be able to make the perfect playlist which includes all
the right party songs.
