Fantastic Voyage: Lakeside
You dropped a bomb on me: The Gap Band
Boogie Wonderland: Earth, Wind and Fire
Celebration: Kool and the Gang
Let's get down: Tony, Toni, Tone`
Also...it won't get them dancing but if you have a really soulful singer, "Still a man" by Tony, Toni, Tone` will melt every girl in the house.

Yeah, I know. I vetoed that song for nearly two years. I finally gave in, we play it, and all the gals are at the front of the stage, bouncing up and down, singing along. I didn't even have to sing those insipid back up vocals, they were louder than the band! I was amazed. Biggest response of the night. I turned to our drummer and said, "OK, I was wrong." Now I can't wait to play that song again!
Other songs are of course the dance numbers - Brick House, Play That Funky Music, Hungry Like Wolf. Livin' On a Prayer is huge, too. |

Robbie Williams' "Let me entertain you" have also always worked, same with "Satisfaction" by Rolling Stones.
There you have some examples. Play them with the right attitude and you'll fill the floor with chicks!

Another one that always seems to work for us in a 70s/disco vein is Young Hearts Run Free by Candi Staton. I haven't figured out why, but it never fails to fill an empty floor.

Nice thread and Funky Music works here too as do
Fast As You
Tubesnake
Sweet Home Alabama
For some reason the song that comes in 2nd place to Brown Eyed Girl as every bassists most-played song in any forum discussing dance floors is missing here:
Mustang Sally
The Panama comment has been noted as it's been brought up....
