    not sure if this is a wise move but I have been booked to do an 80s revival night for a wedding??? !!! normally it wouldnt be a problem, but the couple that have booked us have asked us to and i quote, 'not do the usual ****, can you do some proper bangin tunes that will have everyone dancin', Personally i am thinking we should have declined it but my partner in the group did not.
    So far i have the following (need about 24 songs, got to be popular but guessing not twee or cheesy), prob 12 male 12 female songs

    Just Can't Get Enough - Depeche Mode
    White Lines - Grand Master Flash
    Rat Trap - Boomtown Rats
    Geno - Dexys Midnight Runners
    Fight for Your Right - Beastie Boys
    You Give Love a Bad Name - Bon Jovi
    Antmusic - Adam and the Ants
    Friday I'm In Love - The Cure
    Beds are Burning - Midnight Oil
    Love is the Drug - Roxy Music
