New Years Countdown - Last 15 mins...

MR_Punk · 28 Dec 2009 at 19:55

Well I'm doing a bit of a 60's & 70's set on New Years eve and I'm a bit lost for the run up to midnight and I'm just looking for suggestions of what to play?

Pick the widely regarded 'best' songs for each era, or at least the ones that were number one for the longest. The Guiness book of british hit singles or the internet will help there.

I meant the bringing in the new year sort of songs and songs for just after midnight.

The Final Countdown by Europa though it's probably an 80s song.

This song has been out years, why is suddenly everyone (the young 'uns) listening to it thesedays? Nothing against it, guess it's just a kind of what goes around comes around again? I've over heard it loads of times over the last few months.

I believe it was performed by someone on the X factor and thats why everyone now seems to like it.

whitecrook · 30 Dec 2009 at 14:23

I see. I guess it takes a TV show to tell people what they should listen to these days.

X-factor, X-schmactor.

It will always be remembered for the last episode of the Sopranos in this house.

Its always on that advertisment when i turn on the tv.

Ziggy · 31 Dec 2009 at 00:46

Was also featured in an episode of Family Guy (before X-Factor one came out).

That is seriously the only version I can find with both audio and video.
