While at a wedding, Bar/Bat Mitzvah, or any family party or gathering, there's always that period of time where the DJ takes a break from playing today's top hits, and takes everyone back...especially our parents. There's nothing better than seeing all the adults at the party go crazy and dance their hearts out over their favorite songs from when they were growing up. I'll admit, I love dancing and singing with my parents during this part of a party because you feel the nostalgic energy throughout the room while listening to these songs...(I tried being as accurate as possible!!)
1. "It's Tricky" by Run-D.M.C.
Personally, this song is one of my all time favorites. It's extremely catchy and I know it's one of my mom's all time favorites as well!! It's definitely not tricky to catch onto these lyrics!!
2. "Walk This Way" by Run-D.M.C. featuring Aerosmith
It's hard not to sing along with all the parents when this song is played!!
3. "You Shook Me All Night Long" by AC/DC
This song is by far an adult classic. It's easy to get hype while listening to this song!
4. "Back In Black" by AC/DC
Who doesn't love this song? It's so easy to have a good time when this song is played, regardless if you're at a party or just in the car!
5. "It Takes Two" by Rob Base and DJ EZ Rock
Watching the adults at parties go crazy to this song is probably one of the best and most entertaining experiences ever. I know that my parents both like this song and have such a good time whenever the DJ plays this throwback!
6. "Wanna Be Startin' Somethin'" by Michael Jackson
Who doesn't like listening to Michael Jackson's music?

Who doesn't know this song? This one is such a classic song!!
9. "You Give Love A Bad Name" by Bon Jovi
If you don't start dancing when this song is played, you're lying

This song is nothing but a classic!

For me, this is one of my all time favorite songs. It's so easy to dance around to, even with your parents!!
