Your February Dueling Pianos playlist

February is for lovers, groundhogs, and dead Presidents. And we’re here for it! We’ve got some helpful ideas for your February Piano Bar visit…ready?

If you don’t want to relive Groundhog Day like Bill Murray, just play this repetitive track to break the monotony…and take a drink every time you say “ROXANNE!”

And speaking of Groundhog Day, as well as that ‘other’ February holiday…here’s a piano bar request for all the couples out there.

Of course, dueling pianos shows are not the best place for those Valentine’s Day ballads, but who doesn’t love a good Elton John tear jerker?

When thinking about Presidents’ weekend, especially those Washingtons’ and Lincolns’, we reflect on the words of the poet laureate, Notorious BIG…Mo Money, Mo Problems…

But of course, there’s always the Presidents of the USA…and a song about PEACHES…or is it?

And our last Dueling Pianos song tip, in honor of our brand new showroom at Patrick’s of Times Square…this lil ditty…FORTY SECOND STREET!

Dueling Pianos Rock n Roll Hall of Fame playlist

It’s a new week, and so, a new Dueling Pianos cheatsheet!
The new class of Rock n Roll Hall of Fame inductees was just announced, and, say what you will about it, they represent some fun choices for your next outing to the piano bar.

The diva, Whitney Houston, finally got in after 10 years of eligibility, and of course, it ain’t a dance party without this song…

And for classic rock, the Doobie Bros. are getting in, just in time for their 50th anniversary. Can’t ignore those harmonies in BLACK WATER

Representing the keyboards in this year’s class, Nine Inch Nails, and the definitely-not-family-friendly but popular request CLOSER

And holdin’ down the NYC grooves, and the Dueling Pianos favorite – Notorious BIG!

And, since we just had this band requested at our Saturday Night NYC Dueling Pianos show for the first time in a year…we’re finishing off with some Brit dance pop from Depeche Mode!

Your 2020 Dueling Pianos playlist

Okay, the holidays are over, and now it’s back to business for your friendly neighborhood Dueling Pianos company!
So, we’re kicking off 2020 with some request-able songs about what else, but EYES! (get it? 20-20…ok, never mind)

First, one of our favorite 80s singalongs…from our favorite singer, Mr. Holland Oates (or as they’re better known, HALL & OATES)

And anyone who knows our Shake Rattle & Roll Dueling Pianos shows, knows how much we love singing Van Morrisson’s BROWN EYED GIRL!

What makes a Dueling Pianos song list better? More one hit wonders!

Wanna PUMP UP the party? Get your fists in the air (w/ or w/o boxing gloves!)

And finally, one of the great singalongs (because sometimes, you just need to let your inner horn section out!). Try this one next time you’re at the piano bar!
