@Invasionofthegutsnatchers

And be faithful by Fatman scoop.

Neither are my music of choice/ taste but are definitely the songs I want clubbing to at uni!

La Vida Loca by Ricky Martin
The double whammy of Summer of 69 and Livin on a Prayer
Hips don't lie
Mambo no 5
Bring it back
Jump around
Venga boys
Barbie girl

Admittedly I'm referring to late 90s here too, and some of these songs were already retro even at that point.

So many of these! Plus Starry Eyed Surprise. I'm feeling very nostalgic now.

What was the one with hey shawty it's your birthday were gonna party like it's your birthday...engine engine number 9??

I could go on all night, love the nostalgia. Amazing memories and times when adulthood was just beginning, first loves, cheap alcohol drank in silly amounts with no alcohol and just generally care free.

No hangover I meant. A couple of glasses of wine now and I feel it for days.

Mr. Brightside and I gotta feeling were always the ones that got everybody up and dancing!
Then of course you had Rihannon, Usher, Pink, Christina and Britney etc.

Ahh those were the days!!

Loved a bit of Blu Cantrell and Sean Paul with Breathe.
R Kelly - Ignition Remix.

The days when I could get in from a night out at 4am and still be at my 8am lecture. I think we went out every night in my first year at Uni (2002/3). VK Apple for 50p a bottle. Blue Aftershock. Good times!

What a timely thread, I heard Black Legend ‘the trouble with me’ on the radio earlier (Kisstory seems to play a lot from this era) and I was immediately transported back to Magaluf in 2000.

So many memories on here!

Oh and at a kitchen dance party last weekend we blasted a bit of Ann Lee ‘two times’ which was another tune, That and Toca’s miracle. Which may be a bit early for this thread!

I still have a few on my running playlist
DJ sammy;heaven
Alice deejay; better off alone
Ian van Dahl; castles in the sky
The mAdhouse version of like a virgin
Cascada; every time we touch

Turn around- phats and small

I’m sure there are others but this is the one stuck indelibly in my mind!

@Plump82

Kelis - I hate you so much right now. Gomez - Whipping Picadilly The Foundations - Build me up Buttercup. Played at the Garage nightclub in Glasgow near the end of the night every weekend.

So many good nights in The Garage. Always losing at least one member of your group but it didn’t matter as you knew you would find them in either The Noodle Bar or the Canton Express at the end of the night
