    Default Current music for an 18th?

    Never done one before guys. Just wondering if there are any good current songs you would suggest?

    Cheers

    Blurred Lines is an absolute must, fantastic tune and a real floor filler. X-rated lyrics though.

    Agreed. It's growing on me, and already huge with the punters.

    Really? Think my version's a CD Pool, so no naughty words. Must check.
    Excalibur. Older than the average DJ.

    There's usually not a lot to pick from in the charts, in terms of bankers. I even had Gangnam Style clear the floor for me last night

    But that is what you'll be looking at mainly - current chart. Unfortunately, a lot of youngsters are into a lot of tracks beyond current chart - so you may be asked for a lot of dance and R&B/Hip-hop that hasn't even charted

    I've found these to be fairly reliable tracks for 21sts (I only occasionally do 18ths), some are a bit older but still do well:

    Daft Punk - Get Lucky
    Cheryl Cole - Call My Name
    Carly Rae Jepsen - Call Me Maybe
    Robbie Williams - Candy
    Train - Drive By
    Nicki Minaj - Starships*
    Olly Murs Feat. Flo Rida - Troublemaker
    Taylor Swift - We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together

    Macklemore - Thrift Shop* and Can't Hold Us
    Nelly - Hey Porsche
    Rihanna - Diamonds

    Bingo Players Feat. Far East Movement - Get Up
    Pitbull Feat. TJR - Don't Stop The Party
    Calvin Harris - Drinking From The Bottle
    Avicii Feat. Nicky Romero - I Could Be The One
    Otto Knows - Million Voices
    Azealia Banks - 212
    Swedish House Mafia - Don't You Worry Child
    Avicii - Levels
    David Guetta Feat. Sia - Titanium
    Flo Rida Feat. Sia - Wild Ones

    Ah, well I have the 'dirty' version, and by far the worst line is "you're the hottest [female dog] in the place!". I don't do kids parties, so don't usually worry about clean versions of tracks. I just have to know which tracks contain offensive lyrics, and if there are kids around at functions - then I play them after they've gone home.
