What's on your do not play list for your Dj?

View quoted message

LOL me too, I think I've only ever heard it fully once , I usually am able to dodge out (yep Ive taken 2 full minutes to refill my water at spin lol) or change the station. Its terrible!

I think I'm the only person who loves the cha cha slide! lol. I've worked a lot of functions and have seen it pack a dance floor - literally like the grown up hokey pokey.

For some reason I absolutely hate 99 Red Balloons and enough people there know that so I'm sure it will be requested, I plan on letting the DJ know that this is the one song that if he plays it he ill have a very unhappy bride. Other than that... I'm good oddly enough.

View quoted message A lot of other wedding websites have posted articles about DNP lists. They have definitely helped us determine what we don’t want to hear!

Our do not at list...RAP, heavy metal head banging music.
Most of our songs will be country, soft rock,pop and typical Dance songs

Thanks... I will be copying your exact list into my do not play list

The typical, chicken dance, YMCA, macerana, etc. Want to avoid those ones. As for what's on the list? Still working on that

Pretty much the only songs are anything by Rick Astley... my FH LOVES him and especially Never Going to Give You Up. As much as I hate the YMCA/Macarena/cha cha slide/etc, it does get people to dance so I’m for it

View quoted message Girl I’m with you on the Taylor Swift!!

Macarena, chicken dance, cha cha slide or any slides for that matter, Cotten eye joe, I will always love you by Whitney Houston (could be triggering for some), Blurred lines, anything by the Black Eyed Peas (can't do it), AC/DC, Sexyback (overplayed), We are family, Celebration, Locomotion, Footloose, Sweet Home Alabama, Sweet Caroline...to name a few.

After working on a cruise ship for 2 years. so i have very strong aversions to these songs after hearing them twice a day, every day.
chicken dance, Macarena, YMCA (I will maybe give in on this for my momma), cotton eyed joe

I don't have a ton of "do not play" songs yet! It's something I think I'm going to start working on tho lol.

I didn't have any no play songs. I really wanted people to dance, so even if I wasn't a big fan of the song, I could manage 3-4 minutes for others to enjoy their music too. It also gave me time for a quick bathroom break or to grab a drink.

I’m not a huge fan of that chicken dance song but I feel like lots of ppl get up and dance to it so I’m torn lol

Anything country. I’m not a country music fan. I told our DJ I want a lot of 80s 90s and 2000s with some music from today.

Work by rihanna is my #1 do not play, I cannot stand that song.

This is a great thread, I forgot how many annoying songs there are, my DNP list just got larger!

Cotton-Eye Joe! I can't stand this song!

So far the only thing on it is my (divorced) parents wedding song lol
i also want to add Taylor swift to the do not play but that's just me it seems

View quoted message Haha! I’m definitely with you on the whole country/Miley Cyrus bit !

All country music, all Miley Cyrus 😝, and any line dances like the cha cha slide!

View quoted message The first two on my DNP list are faves of my FH, the last is one that i just flat out hate (mainly b/c i sort of understand the meaning!)

Uptown funk. Everytime I hear it I want to smash my head against a wall (I don't know why I just can't stand that song).

View quoted message Omg these are all added to my DNP now... wow you forget how annoying so many songs are hahah!

View quoted message You’re welcome!

My DNP songs:
work by rihanna
hotline bling
despacito (i hate this song with a passion!)

View quoted message You just gave me a list of songs that I will now add to my Do Not play list! Lol. Thank you!

View quoted message Haha I can’t stand hearing these songs at weddings. Too played out for me. I’ve heard them hundreds of times lol. Luckily my DJ said he never would have played them anyway!

Another one I should have added is Happy by Pharrell and Marry you by Bruno Mars. Much too overplayed for me lol

View quoted message Oh my I couldn't survive without doing the cha cha slide at LEAST once ahahha!!
I like these songs they really get people up and joining in! But I have to agree... they are soooooooooooo overdone.

I really don't want country music but my fiancé's family all like the line dance so I probably won't get my wish...

What's that one terrible song? Blurred Lines by Robin Thicke.... it seems to be popular but the lyrics are disgusting. Will request a hard NO on that one...

Country! We actually aren’t having a DJ so we will be creating a playlist on Spotify. We won’t be choosing any songs we don’t want! One advantage to not having a DJ and the plethora of music they have on hand!

We are family. Macarena. YMCA. The Cha Cha slide.
