Whats your signature tune & why?

Mine is currently Martha Reeves - No One There. I always play it during my set. The reason for this is that the few DJ spots I get are right at the beginning of the night & there really is no one there! Well it amuses me no end.

Lyrically its got to be Bobby Womack - Home Is Where The Heart Is. That record just lifts me and takes me to another level.

No, the only record I play without fail at every single do I've ever done is Monique - If You Love Me.

Afternoon Pete.

Any chance of a sound file.

Quite like 'Nobody's Baby' & 'Never Let Me Go' by Monique, but don't think I know 'If You Love Me'

I seem to slip "why you wanna make me blue" in quite a bit.....love it and great dancer...

I can relate to that too.

An older signature tune for me would have been Greg Perry - It Takes Heart,

which meant a lot to me when I was younger.

Now its just been done to death!

Absolutely class record Pete.... been chasing for a very long time now....

Personally don't have a signiture tune.... just have periods where one seems to give me that "must play it" feeling....

Pete, I do believe you played that at Llandudno :lol: twas lovely..........Mine's THE DELLS - Make Sure........making way for the next act coming on and making sure you've got someone who loves you.........hmm, one out of two ain't bad :D:D:D Jo

I've had a second thought.

This really should be my signature tune.

Why - just listen to the lyrics!

Hope I haven't got one. Though somone may well post now to point out something I play too often. I absolutely love the Chandlers YLMML when it comes as a suprise out of the blue. But as Pat Brady's signiture tune I'm kinda always expecting it from him so the hairs on the back of my neck don't stand up like they do when I hear it out of the blue. Same used to go for Levine with the Charades KTMH something I've noticed and make a conscious effort to avoid in my sets. Having said that I aspire to being half as good a DJ as Pat Brady wink.gif

Well you're writing style in much better than Pat Bradys.

When he used to write for Echoes his column was as dull as dishwater!
