Do not play songs

Posted in Wedding Reception 118

I saw a thread with playlist must haves, and I'm curious; what songs have you blacklisted from your playlists?

    Johnny Cash is the closest I get to country as well.

    Also I hate when I'm trying to reply using my phone and my keyboard disappears and posts when I'm not done writing.

    Agreed, it's kind of a lame dance.

    It's interesting how you don't realize how bad some of the lyrics are until you're making sure they're appropriate for an event like this. When you mentioned Fat Bottomed Girls I was like, "wait, WHAT?!" Looked up the lyrics and sure enough... Man!

    I agree with passing on anything with derogatory language; that honestly bothers me more than swearing ever will because there's more hatred behind those words.

    I have a few songs that remind me of exes that I'm also going to ask not be played.

    Thank you for reminding me of What Does the Fox Say. That's going on my blacklist as well.

    YAS to wobble, but I feel like I'm going to have to do a friggin' tutorial or something. I've been to weddings where people just "dance around" to it...it's a flipping line dance people.

    I feel like I'm going to have a bigger issue with the DJ/ my family wanting to blacklist my choices in music. If I could just play Cardi B mix all night, that would probably be fine with me. Smiley xd

    I also definitely need to play "Put it on Me" (the Vita & Lil Mo version - because is that's the only version I acknowledge) so that my partner and I can scream-sing the lyrics into each other's faces.

    Regarding do not plays, I'm tempted to ban country but I may just "discourage it" with the DJ. If someone (my entire family) special requests it, then so be it as long as they dance when it comes on. I also up-vote not playing the Macarena.

    Any songs by Beyonce are a no. NO rap at all unless it's 80's like Run DMC or the Beastie boys.

    I HATE the Cha Cha Slide and Cupid Shuffle. That's a no go at our wedding.

    I am laughing at all the line dance hate because we will be doing electric slide, cha cha slide, cupid shuffle, and wobble.

    so far I haven't thought of a do not play list. I guess we did say no to FMIL's request for R. Kelly's Step in the name of love

    FH is not a fan of country so that is off the list besides my dad's hand picked father-daughter dance song.

    For me, any type of electric slide songs.

    FH wants to ban certain artists rather than songs. For example, no Nicki Minaj or Cardi B. He cannot stand those two. For me, the only thing I DO NOT want played is Baby Shark. Even though that is my 2 year olds favorite song, we still will not play it.

    No country music, no line dances (made an exception for the Cupid Shuffle because it’s my FBIL’s favorite), and no Michael Jackson.
