If you can do the interlude part right, it IS sexy.

I can imagine some might find it sexy (not me) but I still can't imagine how it would be danceable.

Neither can I, but I watched a 40 something woman "dance" to it last summer. Quite entertaining.

+1 to Blister in the Sun. It is baffling how time, and time again, that song works.

Rock the Casbah also works well. Careful with that one though. Lost a gf to my best friend with that one...

This is how we do it - Montell Jordan
F*ck You - Cee Lo Green
Dynamite - Taio Cruz
Shout - Isley Bros.

Those all go over great. I'm always shocked at how well the response is to Shout. People literally lay on the dirty, gross floor during the "quieter now" part. It's also one of our last songs when everyone is hammered.

These are GREAT setlists to fill the dance floor at an old folks' home

Not mine(other than Shout)!

But I agree...must be a lot of guys in classic rock bands on here(not there's anything wrong with that). If my band played Mustang Sally in the bars we play at, we probably wouldn't be asked back.
