Let's irk a few, shall we? Even if they can't bring themselves to dance to them (a phenomenon which I will neverunderstand), you and I can get down and get funky. Good way to start the day.

Ok,I HAVE to come out of self-emposed exile for THAT.

ANYBODY that refers to Pops and his girls as disco singers has lost his freaking mind.

@sneakypete

Exile yourself again. I provided music that I danced to in the discos in the 70s. However you'd like to classify that music is fine with me. I'm just going to enjoy dancing to it.

If you can swing, you can disco...just add a few arm movements.

A little known fact. You can two step to anything...even Puff The Magic Dragon, lol.

@Cyber Liberty

Are you fixing to tell me that you're one of those people who can listen to music with a beat and sit still?

There actually was a dance called the Penguin in the early 70s that "I Gotcha" was perfect for. And surprisingly, this old broad can still execute the dance except for only a fraction of the time.  8888crybaby

Ahh, come on @roamer_1 be a sport. Put on a white suit with those boot scooters and point your finger in  the air ala John Travolta, lol.

Truthfully, there's really only 2 things that make me sad about getting old. One is having to wear glasses. The other is not being able to dance any more.

I was a DJ for 16 years, part of it during the Disco business.  I have a learned ability to not get moved by the music. :shrug:

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

Aw I ain't sayin a pretty girl couldn't drag me in there @berdie , but it ain't my druthers. I'd be a fish out of water. As close as I ever came to something you could wear in a Disco was a long maroon suit coat that I had that was all bedazzled. The cowgirls fell over for that suit, me in jeans, a saddled shirt, with my Sunday Tony's all shined up. I used to clean up fair when I still shaved my face. Still not the sort of thing that wouldn't stick out like a sore thumb in the city.   :shrug:

As far as growin old... That's still there in Country... Just have em play a two-step or a waltz, or a stroll... There's plenty for old folks to do at a country dance.... A hillbilly dance (blue grass), even more.  happy77

Though tryin to waltz right now, my buggy would be a trial  :laugh:

Boy, I heard that. There's a motel where the Dixie used to be, and Four Corners is a mini-mart now... The Swan Dive is long gone... I ain't been up the canyon in a while, but I hear the Dew Drop closed up... All that's left of my old haunts is the Blue Moon and the Hilltop out west of town. Honkytonks, all... some complete with chicken wire around the stage. All most gone.  **nononono*

I have been digging deep lately into lost 80s songs... I probable could put up a list that most here wouldn't recognize one song out of 100 (and most I hadn't heard of until about a month ago). Dang I love new music finds and my gout has been acting up this past few weeks so I have had time to dig.

The Temptations - Treat Her Like A Lady


www.youtube.com/watch?v=SHVKb2j6rfc
Romans 12:16-21

Live in harmony with one another; do not be haughty, but associate with the lowly, do not claim to be wiser than you are.  Do not repay anyone evil for evil, but take thought for what is noble in the sight of all.  If it is possible, so far as it depends on you, live peaceably with all…do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.
