The Untold History of Disco

The Untold History of Disco

When I think of Oliva Newton-John, i think of...

I was 8 for Grease. I only saw it because I went to the movies with a neighbor (and her kids) and she decided we would sneak into grease after and watch it for free. I got in trouble (as if I had a choice).

By then I listened to (what at the time was considered) hard rock…KISS, AC/DC, DIO, Sabbath, Judas Priest, etc. my family liked Barry Manilow, John Denver, and Neil Diamond. The music wasn’t for me.

Greaser/bobbysoxer stuff never excited me either, I wouldn’t have seen it by choice.

Disco…I still like. I don’t care that it’s not popular, in fact that helps. Xanadu came out when I was 10….it also wasn’t my choice of movie, and probably wasn’t as good a movie overall I don’t remember, but I liked it better at 10.

How old were you? I was thirteen and the idea of "mainstream" i'm sure, was nowhere near my wheelhouse of thinking.

My memories of her are exclusively from Grease which i really enjoyed. I do know her her hits, but her music and pop in general never interested me. I had been indoctrinated in progressive rock by the older neighborhood kids by this time. It was always the movie for me, not at all her music.

Grease was far too mainstream for my taste….Xanadu, her much less popular musical film about opening a roller disco with the help of her guardian angel, is how I remember her. Here’s the title track with her and Electric Light Orchestra.


Jordan Klepper Takes On Canadian Truckers | The Daily Show

reminisce of the former President's inauguration.

small, yet overhyped.

more akin to disco. loved by few, hated by many more, and stayed around for far too long.

to that end...

here's an example of anti-disco, american/canadaian compliance in conspiracy, and a real fight for freedom...(to take your mind off this reality side-show)

Impeachment Managers Make Case Against Trump to Open Trial

luxintenebris says...

the last part was more prayer rather than prediction.

the vast majority of Americans know the president-reject is guilty but know the fix is in.

cheney, romney et al won't get the boot. don and mobsters took a hit with w/the failed coup. there is a movement away from that chaos. folks are fed up w/the madness.

sure the dregs will still remain. hell, disco never went away it only changed its name. but it no longer is the menace it once was. but do believe people will sour on koo-koos like green or weasels like cruz and hawley. it's cotton that is worrisome.

odd that. standing for the flag is imperative, but stay home or wear a mask?

even in the '70s, Americans had to endure the gas crisis. shortages, high prices, nation-wide highway speeds reduced to 55 and - horror of horrors - smaller cars! also, somewhere in there, is disco.

2020 and 'please don't kill gramma' is too much for this pussyship of fools to bear?

want to tie each one up and have them listen to Donna Summer's 'Love to Love You Baby' until they bug. a taste of what hell is really like.

What the F*ck happened to Hip-Hop?

Mordhaus says...

The thing that is funniest to me is that the type of songs he talks about bringing back, other than the ballad of oj from a long time hip hop master, the song with the most true meaning came from a comedian/actor. This is America is the type of old school hip hop/rap song with meaning from the old days and it blew up, so the audience is there. Now we just need the 'disco' mumble rap people to change directions and get involved.
