Good afternoon everyone, as the weekend is coming, more than one person will go out dancing or also to flirt or to have a good time with friends. Whatever the reason for going out, I will try to cheer you up with my disco songs. I will start with the 80s and so on until we get to the date we are in.

So let's start.

To have a background of the disco music that they play in the 70s I'm going to put two songs and from there we'll see how everything changes. For me there are two songs that we have to remember, one is

The Trammps - Disco Inferno

Patrick Hernandez - Born to Be Alive

We already have the two references that were and are today hits that we can listen to on the dance floors, now we are going to move forward a little.

80's disco music

Lipps Inc. - Funkytown (1980)

  • Well here we have a song where they introduce more electronics and to make a song a single person could make all the sounds, and I still listen to this song, not much but I do listen to it sometimes.

"Wake Me Up Before You Go-Go" - Wham!

  • This song with a cheerful rhythm and lots of energy made even those who didn't want to dance, here we can see how they put catchy choruses in the song so you won't forget it.

"Celebration" - Kool & The Gang

  • Here we have another example of a catchy chorus with a style that mixes funk and disco that invites you to dance and of course they use it a lot in celebrations hahahahaha

Earth, Wind & Fire - Boogie Wonderland

  • Although this is from the late 70s I include it because we cannot forget this topic.

Orchestral Manoeuvres In The Dark - Enola Gay

  • Here we have an example of electronic pop that was successful in those years, although it was more of a protest song it became an essential part of the dance floors. For those who don't know, this song is named after the American bomber that dropped the atomic bomb on Hiroshima on August 6, 1945, the Enola Gay.

Gloria Gaynor - I Will Survive

  • "I Will Survive" by Gloria Gaynor and who hasn't danced to it and it has also gone down in history as a symbol of empowerment, especially for women and the LGBTQ+ community, who have adopted it as an anthem of struggle and celebration of identity and self-determination.

Well, I'm going to leave it here today since the list is very long and I don't want you to get bored reading this post, and as always I end with a song, the one I've chosen on this occasion is

So I'll stick with the pioneer. Gentlemen, that's all for today, tomorrow more and better.
