But bad choice of music can play a major role in ruining that dream. When it comes to music for the wedding reception most couples ask the DJ to spin their favourite tracks end-to-end without even discussing likes and dislikes. Your wedding day is for you to dance to songs that have a special meaning for you as a couple. You don\u2019t want your guests left discontented with the shoddy songs they were forced to hear while enjoying a beautiful reception. We suggest you make a list of MUST PLAY as well as a list of DO NOT PLAY songs and give this to your DJ. In order to help you with putting together your playlist, we\u2019ve come up with a list of 10 english songs that would make it to our DO NOT PLAY list. A list of Hindi songs will follow.<br \/>\n<!--more--><\/p>\n<div style=\\\"text-align: center;\\\"><strong>1. Birdie Dance<\/strong><\/div>\n<p style=\\\"text-align: center;\\\"><iframe src=\\\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/l3ZxZb_nP0I\\\" frameborder=\\\"0\\\" width=\\\"420\\\" height=\\\"315\\\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>Also known as the Chicken Dance, it falls into the cheesy group dance category, which definitely isn\u2019t a wedding song. Group dancing at a wedding like a bunch of high school kids is pass\u00e9. It\u2019s more enjoyable and appropriate if played at your four year old kid\u2019s birthday bash.<\/p>\n<p style=\\\"text-align: center;\\\"><strong>2. As Long As You Love Me \u2013 Backstreet Boys<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\\\"text-align: center;\\\"><iframe src=\\\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/NFKn5LRpm34\\\" frameborder=\\\"0\\\" width=\\\"420\\\" height=\\\"315\\\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>\u2018I don\u2019t care who you are, where you\u2019re from, what you did as long as you love me\u2019\u00a0 this song is played at almost every wedding happening around the globe, though the lyrics and music are very lovable it\u2019s time to move over the clich\u00e9 love songs and add a little uniqueness to your playlist.<\/p>\n<p style=\\\"text-align: center;\\\"><strong>3. My Heart Will Go On \u2013 Celine Dione<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\\\"text-align: center;\\\"><iframe src=\\\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/XZOH6c17u2A\\\" frameborder=\\\"0\\\" width=\\\"420\\\" height=\\\"243\\\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>She meant this song for her dead boyfriend and not your very much alive hubby! It\u2019s a sad heart breaking song though very sweet but not for your joyful wedding celebration. Hence leave this sorrowful Titanic song off your reception playlist.<\/p>\n<p style=\\\"text-align: center;\\\"><strong>4. I Will Survive \u2013 Gloria Gaynor<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\\\"text-align: center;\\\"><iframe src=\\\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/wGaildvlpBs\\\" frameborder=\\\"0\\\" width=\\\"420\\\" height=\\\"243\\\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>The song\u2019s lyrics describe the narrator\u2019s confidence after a devastating breakup. If you want to show your ex that you\u2019ve moved on and how, your wedding is not the place for it!<\/p>\n<p style=\\\"text-align: center;\\\"><strong>5. Achy Breaky Heart \u2013 Billy Ray Cyrus<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\\\"text-align: center;\\\"><iframe src=\\\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/Eq-PYLQPIxE\\\" frameborder=\\\"0\\\" width=\\\"420\\\" height=\\\"315\\\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>Obvious from the title, it\u2019s a song about bitter-sweet heartbreak and why just WHY would you want this playing at your wedding?<\/p>\n<p style=\\\"text-align: center;\\\"><strong>6. Who Let The Dogs Out \u2013 Baha Men<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\\\"text-align: center;\\\"><iframe src=\\\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/QcBB5C0E2RA\\\" frameborder=\\\"0\\\" width=\\\"420\\\" height=\\\"315\\\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p style=\\\"text-align: left;\\\">This song from the year 2000 is tagged as one of the most annoying songs ever by a leading music magazine. Though a very popular fun party song, there is no reason you should play this song at your wedding! Why should you put good taste aside just to get your guests grooving?<\/p>\n<p style=\\\"text-align: center;\\\"><strong style=\\\"text-align: center;\\\">7. I Gotta Feeling \u2013 Black Eyed Peas<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\\\"text-align: center;\\\"><iframe src=\\\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/UwH0Itmx44k\\\" frameborder=\\\"0\\\" width=\\\"420\\\" height=\\\"243\\\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>Definitely a fun song, but after three years of being played at every club, party and wedding even Fergie would agree that it\u2019s time to give it a break. It\u2019s your wedding, you don\u2019t need a quirky song to say how good you feel about the night.<\/p>\n<p style=\\\"text-align: center;\\\"><strong>8. If You Wanna Be Happy \u2013 Jimmy Soul<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\\\"text-align: center;\\\"><iframe src=\\\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/MH_PANCU9oQ\\\" frameborder=\\\"0\\\" width=\\\"420\\\" height=\\\"315\\\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>There\u2019s no way a bride would be happy to hear this song at her wedding. Even though it\u2019s fun and catchy to dance to, but this song could get you into major trouble with the bride\u2019s family!<\/p>\n<p style=\\\"text-align: center;\\\"><strong>9. Gold Digger \u2013 Kanye West<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\\\"text-align: center;\\\"><iframe src=\\\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/KeImWfYjgDQ\\\" frameborder=\\\"0\\\" width=\\\"420\\\" height=\\\"315\\\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p style=\\\"text-align: left;\\\">This Kanye West track will have your wife giving you the eyeballs. Are you trying to say that she\u2019s a gold digger?!\u00a0 You don\u2019t want to have your first fight at your wedding reception. It\u2019ll cost you BIGTIME!<\/p>\n<p style=\\\"text-align: center;\\\"><strong>10. It\u2019s My Life \u2013 Bon Jovi<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\\\"text-align: center;\\\"><iframe src=\\\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/OWNcWhPKPAY\\\" frameborder=\\\"0\\\" width=\\\"420\\\" height=\\\"243\\\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p style=\\\"text-align: left;\\\">Not the best time to tell \u2018her\u2019 that &#8211; your heart \u201cis an open highway\u201d. She\u2019ll definitely be displeased.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s always a good idea to introduce your guests to an exclusive set of songs instead of sticking to the usual clich\u00e9 party and love songs. Make your wedding a sweet memory, your guests will definitely appreciate the uniqueness and remember your wedding as a distinct one. We would love to know what makes it to your DO NOT PLAY list of English songs.
