The Perfect Playlist for a Bingo Night
If you’re like us then you automatically think about the beats when you organise a night. Today, we’ve got the low down on the best tunes to listen to on a bingo night. Grab your dabbers and your subwoofers!
Start the night off right with a great opener like the Black Eyed Peas “Let’s Get it Started”. This funky tune is the best thing to blast as the invited players make their way through your door. Their entire discography is pretty great to listen to as you play bingo, as it’s a high intensity vibe.
Who doesn’t love blasting out some Tina Turner? This songstress always seems to make her way into our playlists and for bingo we can’t think of anything better than “Simply the Best”. Though some mobile bingo sites, like www.bingoonmobile.co.uk, come with their own soundtrack in the rooms, you’ll want to turn that down to really appreciate this song. We’ll even help you out with a video.
We’re continuing with the same vein of retro hits with our next suggestion, “Eye of the Tiger” by Survivor. This is obviously for those that take their bingo time seriously, as once those beats start pumping you’ll be in Rocky territory. While Rocky may have trained in the way of the ring, you’ll be training in the way of the dabber when you listen to this while playing mobile bingo. If you love these types of songs then check out our other playlists, in which both of the eighties hits appear.
Abba is the perfect group for just about every occasion and their hit “The Winner Takes it All” is yet another instant mobile bingo hit. Ideal for both winning and losing rounds, you’ll find it hard to resist singing along to this one. It can be useful if you’re having a bad round and need a pick me up to keep you going. “Money, Money, Money” by Abba will also cheer you on during those winning streaks as you start to imagine where you’ll spend that cash.
We love chatting with our bingo pals but when you’re in the zone, there’s no time to chat. Cue “A Little Less Conversation” by Elvis, this song perfectly sums up how we feel when playing bingo. We want all the action, and the jackpots too, so this is a must have on our playlist. There are remixed versions if you want to take it into the modern day and add some bass into the song to really get those speakers thumping.
