# at this point I am going to TJ
next week I am apparently DJing at my old office's Christmas Party

I have 5 hours to fill, so need suggestions for things to play. They must be things you can dance to and that people will (mostly) know - which is why I'm struggling.
My only rules are: no Oasis, T*ploader or Simply Red. Or 'Dancing Queen'.

# I would absolutely play this if I could find a good quality copy

# You won't find one without the voice-over.
Someone needs to sit down, clean it up and re-edit it.

Hmm - there was a dance track remix of "The Neverending Story"...
And David Bowie, "Dance Magic".

# Anything by Suicidal Tendencies.
Or any speedpunkgabbafuckcore.

What equipment are you using?

Edit: The reason I ask, is if you need any music on cd, I have NOW 1-70 here.I could burn you a copy and that pretty much boxes any disco off.

# That Mika track from the titles of "Kick-Ass"
Madness, "Baggy Trousers".
Smash Mouth's "I'm a Believer", or the Eddie Murphy edit from Shrek for extra brownie points. "All Star", "Walking on the Sun", etc.
Vic Reeves & The Wonderstuff, "Dizzy".
Going out on a limb but "Krupa" by Apollo 440 if you can include the intro and not mix over it.
