Here is a quickie question for the orgers who go to the dance clubs these days. I'm not much into the club scene right now and was curious, which Michael Jackson tracks were getting play at clubs these days? Billie Jean? You Rock My World? Anything? Or are clubs these days all about 50 Cent and Sean Paul?

Thanks for the info in advance guys!

I heard "You Rock My World" the last time I went out to a club.

The clubs I go to usually have more of an old school flavour.
Talkin 90's soul influenced hip hop and mix in a bit of funk with splash of r&b.
Tracks I've heard lately are "don't stop til..", "i want you back", "billie jean", "i can't help it" and much to my surprise and delight, "get on the floor"!

Peace!

Nothin.

Like MAYBE "Billie Jean".

"Thriller" if it's Halloween.

I once heard "Don't Stop Til You Get Enough" on the loudspeakers and it was amazing... I've never heard it the same way since... that shit was really mixed for the discos!

Well, I haven't been to a club for some time now. However about 5 yrs ago I heard "Don't stop Till You Get Enough" at one club, which sounded brilliant.

Black clubs back in the late 80's/90's also use to play quite a bit of The Jacksons like "That's What You Get for Being Polite" and "Heartbreak Hotel". But one thing I notice most clubs rarely play anything post "Thriller"..

Songs I've heard.

At a school dance a couple years ago, they played "ABC" and "Rockin' Robin" back-to-back.

But at clubs "Shake Your Body (Down to the Groud)", "Don't Stop til You Get Enough", "Rock With You", "Billie Jean", "Human Nature", "Another Part of Me", "Remember the Time", "You Rock My World" and get this "Torture".

i think i heard a remix of Don't Stop Til You Get Enough but it wasn't Michael singing

"Billie Jean","Don't Stop Til You Get Enough" and "Rock With You".I hear these songs played at nightclubs all the time.These are Old School dance classics that never fail to get people on the floor.

That's Quincy Jones for you!

JasonStar said:

Can't listen to much past 'Off the wall' so i used to play 'Working day and night' constantly.

Here in Hamburg, Germany mostly the old stuff is played:

Billie Jean
Beat It
I Want You Back
Blame It On The Boogie
You Rock My World

That's it.

And from Prince it's only "Kiss".

So true. And add to this the rare grove stuff from the Jacksons will always get peep on the dance floors.

And another thing, probably it's the clubs I use to go to-which were mainly black clubs- I don't think I have ever heard anything by Prince in a club. I heard stuff that he has written for others, but I've never heard anything by Prince himself. But as I said it could be the clubs I use to go to.

don't stop till you get enough

DSTYGE
Blame It On The Boogie - guaranteed at any cheese-fest
Billie Jean
PYT
Get On The Floor
Bad (not kidding - Soho loves it!)
You Rock My World

I've seen people sing The Way You Make Me Feel, Earth Song and I Can't Help it on open-mic nights.

Then there's obviously those new remixes of Say Say Say, Somebody's Watching Me and Man In The Mirror from the last year.

I went out clubbing on the night he was acquitted and every damn club we passed was pumping out his music. The one we settled into by the end played everything they had

The one by Hi-Tack? I looove that track.

one song that does get club play today is a mix of "Say Say Say" that pretty much focuses on Mikes vocals

Billie Jean
Thriller
Don't Stop til you get enough
