Campsite Classics?

[bollyhead]

Hi Everyone,

Everytime I Go to V, I take an old stereo and make cds of whoevers on at the festival and also decent tunes of the time.

Well I also chuck in the odd 'Oldie' Classic in the middle of a CD for a laugh. Not good ones, but ones that just dont fit on the disc and people cant help singing along to when drunk. Previous Oldies have been One Step Beyond by Madness. and Star Trekkin by the firm.

Any Suggestions for this years Classic?

Cheers in advance.

Best thought Ive had so far is a classic in my opinion.

Basement Jaxx - Where's your head at.

Got me thinking , Ive gotta make a couple of cds with some real classics on.

Any suggestions?

Used to do something similar every year at Reading, in '95 the campsite classic was Eye of the Tiger, and we all started singing it whenever queueing for anything (which at Reading 95 was everywhere!).

Jaws hit the floor when Billy-Joe from Green Day starting playing it in a gap in the set on the main stage!

Backing up the votes for:

Blur - Song 2

[bollyhead]

Some real classics so far..

How about limiting it down a bit by saying just one song from each artist?

EG

Faithless - Weapon of mass destruction

Faithless - Insomnia

Now theres a question in itself. Which one do you leave out?

We had a group of about 25 next to us last year and they played Stop Crying Your Heart out all weekend, on repeat. Annoying!

well if you like complete and utter randomness mixed in with your top class tunes then go for "superman", "the birdie song" or "the conga", be a great way of getting everyone dancing and having a laugh. Thought I would add some cheesiness seen as everyone suggested good respectable tunes
