Thanks to my family (no, really - thanks), I was fortunate enough to watch the "London 2012 launch party" on Sunday and was struck by the decision to have McFly cover "The Winner Takes It All". Aside from the word "winner" in the title, what makes this beautiful, bittersweet song about the breakdown of relationships and divorce right for a party? Any party?

It reminded me of other badly chosen songs witnessed at various occasions. My favourite is "I Will Survive", played at several weddings. Huh? And I've mentioned before round here the sheer thrill one Sunday of hearing Leona Graham announce that "we're going to kick back and relax to the soothing sound of The Verve", and then play "The Drugs Don't Work".

So, what are your favourite inappropriate songs?
