Performance tip

Use the stop-hand gesture on the first title and perhaps the final chorus. Repeating it every time turns a memorable cue into a gimmick.

Recommendation

Should you sing it?

Choose “Stop! In the Name of Love” when you can combine vulnerability with a firm, recognizable chorus. The quick verse phrasing needs control before the title opens up. Skip it if you want a carefree love song.
