For amusement value - there are quite a few songs that the modern person would know that you can actually do medieval dances to. You shouldn't expect to hear anyone dancing to these tunes at a medieval recreationist event, but it could be quite amusing to do a medieval dance to them at a modern event. At times, some re-enactors have mimed historical activities to modern music for comedic value.
