Ok, here's one which makes for an interesting pub discussion, what is the best "last record" to be played in a club?

Everyone's got a different opinion on this so let's create a fictional situation:
you're the DJ and you've just played the set of your life. The crowd want one more record and you've got the chance to round off the perfect night - what do you play???

There's no rules on being genre-specific here so you can choose anything - House, Soul, Funk, Disco etc - it's just got to be a killer track to send everyone home happy.

Here's a couple of suggestions to start off...

Richie Havens - "Going Back To My Roots"
Zoe - "Sunshine On A Rainy Day"
Bob Marley - "Could You be Loved"

Over to you... get your thinking caps on.

(Note to mods: I've put this here to throw it open "to the floor" - if you think it needs moving to Music Chat then feel free to do so!)

Went to an Ark at Leeds Uni once and when the lights came up they announced that somebody had died in a car crash that night on their way to the night. Cue 'Dilemma - In Spirit'. Not a dry eye in the house :thumbsup:
