Answer 2

Cotton Eye Joe is a must play at dances.

To satisfy every music lover you should probably play rap, rock, and country, etc. It depends on the dj what songs are played at dances. Usually they pick one genre, and mix in some slow songs here and there.  

Answer 3

DJ's tend to bring out the requests. Sometimes people will give them a "don't play" list along with songs that they want to hear.
