I Am Not A Reliable Narrator

the collective

Jeremy and our friend H have decided to try and put on a dance night at a pub in Brixton with only themselves and other friends as Dee Jays. I have been offered a slot, I won't be scratching or doing any mash ups or any shit like that, but I will be aiming to move some feet. so far i know for a fact that I will play the following:

  1. Hazy Shade of Winter - The Bangles
  2. Know Your Chicken or Sci Fi Wasabi - Cibo Matto
  3. Mass Romantic, maybe Graceland too - New Pornographers
  4. Call the Doctor or I Wanna Be Your Joey Ramone - Sleater Kinney
  5. Cannonball - Breeders
  6. Something by Arcade Fire (I can never rememebr the names of their songs)
  7. Hey Ya - Outkast (or Bombs Over Bagdhad is I can get my hands on that CD before the night (also don't tell me how overplayed Hey Ya is because I do not care, I love it and I am totally going to marry Andre 3000 someday so shut up!)
  8. I Miss you - Bjork
  9. Groove is in the Heart - Dee Lite (again if I can pick up the CD)
  10. Something from Odelay - Beck (i need to replace that cassette tape anyway, that's right I said cassette tape)
  11. Mandinka - Sinead O'Connor
  12. Never Said - Liz Phair
  13. The Whores Hustle and The Hustlers Whore - PJ Harvey

Now I'm drawing a blank, I need to go stare hard at my CD collection for a little while but I thought I'd open the floor to suggestions as well. I'd like to get a little more hip hop in there, but my personal selection in a little limited, I'd also like to play things that may not be so well known over here.

Oh crap i just realized that I need to get some Styx, then everyone will finally know why I came as Mr Roboto to the dress like a song party! I will be vindicated!

So yeah, what would you, dear reader(s) want to hear at your perfect dance party? Tell me, I need to know.
