You may now kiss the bride.

Been a wedding DJ.
Now theres a job I wouldn't like to do.
The problem would be pleasing everybody.
It cant be done.
I was at a wedding this weekend.
Everyone at the wedding could be fitted in to three simple categories.
With the occasional against the curve type.
Category one.
The old folks.
Their going to need lots of seventies music.
Mostly disco,funk and soul.
This I can put up with.
A bit of Motown never did anyone any harm.
The disco has a charm to it, in the fact that we all know the lyrics.
Category Two.
The youngsters.
This is a broad term.
It covers nearly every one between eighteen to thirty.
Its mostly filled with bad pop.
Not even bad euro pop like Aqua.
Nah, I mean bad trend bands like LMFAO.
The only saving grace in this category is Katy Perry.
Category the third.
Everyone sat at my table.
We where all grungers, goths and oddly, obscure funk fanatics.
Now I don't want to come across as to old,
or a music nazi.
But there wasn't much on the playlist for us.
But saying that we comprised a grand total of four people.
The dance floor at anyone time was full to the brim with the hundred other people dancing their socks off.
The DJ did a great job off keeping everyone dancing.
The only time when there was room enough for us to dance was the number one song,
in my opinion.
So the top three songs of the night as voted by me on behalf of everyone else.
In at number 3,
Love shack by the B52's.
Number 2 by a massive lead on number 3,
Lets Dance by David Bowie.
and at number 1 just by a ants hair,
Just cant get enough by Depech Mode.
