However, you cant go wrong giants such as Ray Charles, The Beatles and Beyonce! Greatest song of all time? Wow thats a tough one, Jump in the Line by Harry Belafonte' has to come close, it's such an upbeat song and every time we play it the audience without fail go nuts and it inevitably ends up in a great big conga line!
