Party Playlist

This old heart of mine - Isley Brothers Be my baby - Ronettes Can't go wrong. Enzo.. www.thedevilbetweenus.com

Oh dear. So far it sounds less like a party and more like a working class wedding reception.

See, I turn my nose up at 'popular' music. I go to Young Creatives' parties with their own DJ, where listening to music is a competitive sport.

Tim, i fear that our party on saturday might be classified as a 'Young Creatives' party with their own DJ' I think we are sad but it is fun. Span

I wasn't being in any way ironic. I sometimes stay up all night making mix CDs. In fact, I stayed up last saturday mixing my own entrance music. It's freakin awesome. And I bet your party rocks this weekend.

Mixing your own entrance music?! what the hell did that consist of? I reckon Timmo entrance music would be eye of the tiger. You coming? Good old mini is coming up for me birthday and we going to be babies and go to the cinema to see Narnia. Span

It's Evil entrance music. A gothic choir and a bangin drum loop, Mini stayed over last weekend and said I should come. I'd love to see all you guys and I'm sure it'll be the square root of badass but I don't think I'm ready to have *that* confrontation yet, if you know what I mean. Sorry to be such a pussy. I'll go and do some weights to get my testosterone levels back up to 'hardcore'.

No, thats cool. If it were Joe like ten months ago I would have been the same. It's well hard, can you hear my essex twnag there, can you can you? bruv. almost like having Luke in the room. To be honest I am not sure you would have to have that confrontation, I hear hide nor hair. De boost no Joe, the life and soul of the party is in India. And if you did need to have that confrontation we would hold yer hand, infact can you even count on mini leaving you alone for ten minutes. Evil entrance music? I would want a Tim cackle as background harmonies. I cannot think of what hannah entrance music could ever possibly be. I think it does not exist, I am far too unique (he he) hannah

Umm... well maybe I'll come then. It sounds like a hoot. And I have my music on CD and mp3 (I'm going to use it at my next gig) so you can play it as I come in if you like.

Yes my pretty thats right! You shall go to the ball! hannah x

I'm airing out my best frock as we speak.

excellent, as yet I have no thing to wear, buy hey you dont have to look 'nice' at your own party so I dont care! Quite a rebellion for me. Hannah

Just make sure everyone gets shitfaced, then they'll all remember you as looking hot. It's always worked for me.

I will make some punch. Excellent plan. Span

What's your fave cocktail? In the past I've ended up as defacto cocktail waiter at house parties. Our bog standard punch has always been: 1 litre vodka 70 cl peach schnapps 5 litres orange juice 2 litre cranberry juice 20 cl lime cordial Using super-cheapo versions of all ingredients, obviously. The key is not adding fruit - it soaks up all the alchohol but people just chuck it away.

'Do you like good music?' Sweet Soul Music by Arthur Conley.

hello, that is good punch recipe, I will print it out. I grant you the crown of King cocktail Tim My recipe has been the same for our last six parties. It tastes like shit but gets everyone merry and then even if it is not a good party they think it was. Sadly the recipe is cider, vodka, orange juice, rum and apples. evil foul tasting mixture. Dont know why we do it really! Span

Well, the above is very, very sweet - very dangerous, too, as you can't really taste the alcohol. The lime cordial's the killer, really - it masks the vodka 'bite', so you can neck a pint in a matter of seconds. I've found it's relatively hangover free. I tried getting pissed on White Russians the other night - really nice, until it turns to cottage cheese in your stomach. Cider's a really underrated cocktail ingredient. I say go you. I still haven't tried Joe's fabled 'Energon' (pronounched 'eh-nuh-jonn'), a fizzing green concotion that consists of 1 litre of vodka, 2 of the big bottles of WKD Blue, and two litres of Red Bull (or rather the cheap Tesco version, 'Kick'). It sounds like a witch's brew... It's too expensive to have as communal punch, but it'd be so cool to have as a punishment drink for a drinking game like 'Drink While You Think'!

Jeez - o- flip: it's not going to be a party; more like a bacchanal. I'm an old-fashioned dance/trance music person. I -still- like to dance to Stardust's 'Music Sounds Better With You'. Fantastic loop, it is. That'll get people jiggyin'.

Anything by Stevie Wonder. Hey Ya! - Outkast Tainted Love – Soft Cell Anything by The Kinks or The Rolling Stones Groove is in the Heart - Deelite Michael Jackson's Off the Wall or Thriller album At the moment anything by Kanye West is very shoulder dancing-y Abba. I'm sorry, but it's true. You know, all the stuff that makes people smile and wiggle about. Okay, okay, my taste is fairly mixed - but you want people to dance, and nobody to worry about looking cool. span - I am wearing some delightful chocolate brown city shorts (below the knee) and 3 and1/2 inch. brown, spike heels to your party, with little rosettes at the toe.I am also wearing a black jersey dress/top thingy and lots of eye makeup and lipgloss. I am going to look delicious, I can tell you now. Yep. I know it is Narnia themed, but as I'm going in brown/black, I can be the wardrobe. Yep, I can.
