I think my favorite jukebox memory of all time was a quiet, snowy weeknight at the Nisei Lounge, when someone played the Stones' "Moonlight Mile," so maybe that one. My current dive has Eric Burdon and the Animals "Sky Pilot" on it, which is a good obscure juke toon too.

"That's Life" - Frank Sinatra

You can't go wrong with a little Frank.

Baldeesh / July 6, 2009 1:35 PM

This is a real good one, too:

"Brimful of Asha" - Cornershop

eee / July 6, 2009 4:54 PM

Gloria Gayor's "I Will Survive." Who doesn't love drunk women screeching along with it at the top of their lungs? That's a good time for everyone.

thenefa / July 6, 2009 5:22 PM

Hawaii 5-0 by the Ventures, Always. (and usually the only one dancing to it!)

Greg / July 6, 2009 7:55 PM

"Recurring Dreams" by Hüsker Dü. Because it's 14 minutes long and I want my non-money's worth.

Back in TIme / July 6, 2009 7:56 PM

Will never forget summer of '66, ice cream parlor, Park Rapids, Minnesota, someone kept putting a nickel in over and over and over playing "Sweet Pea" by Tommy Roe. Talk about a bublegum overdose.

snuh / July 7, 2009 12:19 AM

i'll go with what is theoretically on most jukeboxes, and right now i feel like hearing something from john mellencamp. perhaps "cherry bomb" or "crumblin' down".

ya know, if i were at johnny's tavern, nothing sounded sweeter than nu shooz "i can't wait" coming out of the fuzzed-out single-speaker jukebox.

"We gotta get outta this place, if it's the last thing we ever do. We gotta get outta this place, girl there's a better life, for me and you."

It's my mantra of the day, so only fitting that everyone else be forced to listen along.

Carlotta / July 7, 2009 11:19 AM

Gee, just one selection? Cheapskate.

Without putting endless thought into it:

"Tales of Brave Ulysses" by Cream

holden / July 7, 2009 11:31 AM

prolly "Cecelia" - Simon & Garfunkel

love the Sam Cooke suggestions, also ol'Blue Eyes and Cash are sure hits.

there's some great ideas on here! just may have to dl a few and make a little playlist

dramaclub / July 7, 2009 11:54 AM

my fave time at the beachwood was when someone broke the afternoon silence by playing "Suzie Q" by CCR & the older gent sitting next to me just started bawling

Amanda / July 7, 2009 1:40 PM

If dancing is involved, then "This Corrosion" by Sisters of Mercy. If it's just with friends drinking a beer, then probably anything by Bessie Smith or Nina Simone.

maardvark / July 7, 2009 1:45 PM

If I only get one, I've got to make it count, right? So I'll put in something really long. There's a bar I go to in River North where The Best of the Doors is in the jukebox, so how about "The End"?

But seriously, this question is unanswerable, because what you play in the jukebox depends on so many things. Your own mood, the atmosphere of the bar, what you were just talking about, whom you're trying to hit on, etc., etc.

Bill Guerriero / July 7, 2009 10:27 PM

What a great question! I only get one choice? Damn, I was hoping for three for a dollar. Hmmm, "Sleepwalk" by Santo and Johnny is one of my favorite songs but right now I'd pick "Starting Over" by The Black Lips.

Rachel / July 8, 2009 10:42 AM

Jasmine / July 8, 2009 4:43 PM

I used to go to the Beachwood semi-regularly when I lived nearby from 1999 to 2001. My favorite song to play on their jukebox was Curtis Mayfield's "Superfly". I would then try to get the resident dog (remember him?) to dance with me.

Andrew / July 9, 2009 10:57 AM

"Deacon Blues" by Steely Dan. It's a quintessential drinkin' song.
