40th Playlist Survey

40th Playlist Survey

Hello!

For our 40th reunion, we will be generating playlists instead of hiring a DJ to help keep our weekend activities as affordable as possible. We need your help, though. Over the next few months, we will be posting a series of surveys with songs by the following categories: Dance/Disco; Slow Dance; Rock; R&B/Soul; Guilty Pleasures. With each survey, you will be able to check which songs to play. The songs with the most votes in each category will be generated into our Saturday event playlist. The songs found in the survey are from the Billboard Top 100 Year-end Hits from the years 1977 - 80. If you do not see a song listed within a specific category, you can list it in the comment box at the end of each survey so it can be considered. Also, the songs you check are recorded anonymously, but classmates will be able to track the collective responses via this website.

Thank you for your participation!

Sincerely,

THS Class of 1980 40th Reunion Committee

Terry Parker, Chair
