Last night I had a nightmare that disco made a comeback.

[Duncanpup]

At first i was afraid, I was petrified.

Read on twitter, and i need more coffee I’m easily amused.

1. You must be watching PBS during a fund drive

Greatest Hits of Disco, parts 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5.

[Duncanpup]

4. Do you wanna come over and watch as well we have snacks.

And my golden retriever thinks my snacks are his snacks.

[EYESORE 9001]

2. I don't foresee any trips in your future

to Funkytown

[Duncanpup]

3. I will agree with you 100%

[Different Drummer]

37. Worst. Song. Ever.

And I use "Song" loosely. Why Zyrtec would choose to incorporate it into a commercial is beyond me.

[EYESORE 9001]

41. But it's so 'catchy'

It is so formulaic that it checks all the boxes for a pop song. The bouncy melody gets stuck in the mind - inextricably, I imagine. The beat implies energy and vitality. Advertising weasels exploit our intimate familiarity with this little ditty. When you’ve heard something 20,000 times, it’s kinda hard to ignore when you hear it in an unexpected or random setting.

I’m hardly an expert in music, psychology, or marketing strategy, so my assessment means bupkis. As it’s said about art, I know what I like, and I don’t like Funkytown on many levels. Millions within my cohort may have succumbed to its ‘charms’, but even then I perceived it as pop schlock.

5. I watched 'Saturday Night Fever' last weekend

The first time I saw it was when I was stationed in Iceland. I thought it was AWFUL but as time has gone on, I've gained an appreciation for the film.

I remember how in the enlisted club they played a WHOLE lot of disco, especially the SNF soundtrack. There was one couple who did the exact same choreographed dance to each and every song. They thought they were spectacular.

[Duncanpup]

7. I've never watched that movie.

Although I had friend once who passed out in enlisted club going to get another Long Island ice tea.

He discovered three was his max , we actually carried him back to the barracks.

Hugs to the kitties from my golden retriever moocher and i. My son 19 rescued a Tom cat started feeding him he’s now indoor cat and is he a trilling cat.

17. Recommend a watch

Gotta hand it to disco - it was joyful. But more for extroverts.

I've heard that if you have to do CPR, the rhythm/speed of compressions is about the same as the beats in "Staying Alive". I haven't tested this yet.

31. I think the movie 'Thank God It's Friday' with Donna Summer was a better depiction of the time

And the soundtrack is great

[jmbar2]

33. I've never heard of this movie - sounds interesting.

I always liked Donna Summer --exceptional voice.

[ArkansasDemocrat1]

34. SNF stole all the oxygen

TGIF all takes place in one night at a Disco, American Graffitti style. A, B & C stories, good soundtrack.

[judesedit]

6. But you survived

[Duncanpup]

8. Good point.

[judesedit]

21. I enjoyed that lol

Thanks!

[Wednesdays]

22. He's stayin' alive, stayin' alive... nt

[samnsara]

9. oh no was I playing my patio Echo too loud?

..fast music helps with yard work...

[bucolic_frolic]

10. Better disco than Trump

but it's likely both are possible.

[Duncanpup]

11. I don't dance but if I outlive that fucking pig.

Oh I’ll do a dance then.

[lastlib]

13. Pro Tip: Not to "Staying Alive".....

you're welcome.

[Duncanpup]

14. Perfect

[chowmama]

40. As someone who takes a CPR refresher every year

I can't believe nobody's brought this one up. The instructor makes the same joke every year.

For optimists - Stayin' Alive.
For pessimists - Another One Bites The Dust.

In Trump's case, I believe the latter would be appropriate.

[lastlib]

42. I've heard those lines....

For people taking CPR these days, how many of them know the songs?

[ArkansasDemocrat1]

35. I will dance like the Munchkins did after hearing the Wicked Witch was dead n/t

[Duncanpup]

36. I'll join you friend.

Not trying to depress you although my heart goes out to you with your governor.

[ArkansasDemocrat1]

39. Ugh n/t

[Ford_Prefect]

12. Franken Disco?

[Duncanpup]

15. I never thought Of it like that.

[Ford_Prefect]

18. Stayin' Alive takes on a whole new meaning.

[mwooldri]

16. Disco never went away.

Especially when it comes to sorting my CDs. Disk goes here, disk goes there...

[Duncanpup]

19. I'm 58 we should hang out with our vinyl and C.D.'s.

[Different Drummer]

38. ...

[brewens]

20. Remember the folk music scare of the 60s? I'm good as long as that doesn't come back! LOL n/t

[Duncanpup]

24. I'm 58 so I just read article the night Dylan went electric in 1965.

The audience was not pleased.

[judesedit]

23. Now I can't get that song out of my head

[Duncanpup]

25. Apologies judesedit

Other day I couldn’t shake teddy bear picnic my one granddaughter loves that cd.

[judesedit]

30. Lol. I don't know that song. Your original used to be one of my favorites

Thanks for your special outlook and humor, Duncanpup. Always cheers me up.

[Turbineguy]

26. Disco lives forever
