1. Well if Disco rules wins this poll
then it must be a conspiracy of some sort. Disco sucks and always will.

admit it. Confession is good for the soul.

11. I agree.
I will demand a recount, and if even ONE black person said they voted in this poll I'll get Jesse Jackson on their ass!

2. Neither
there are some disco songs that i love and some i don't. The main reason so many rejected disco was because in the late 70's early 80's we nearly drowned in disco.

4. Disco can be good
But when New Order blended it with rock music, then it ruled!

Disco was cool for about 10 minutes in 1976...

...when Dr. Buzzard's Original Savannah Band hit the scene with some seriously original-sounding stuff. Then it all got simplistic boom-boom, 4/4 time. Ugh.

from "Airplane!"
Radio DJ: 'This is WZAZ in Chicago where disco lives forever...'
(the airplane zooms overhead the building, knocking the radio attenna down, and the signal goes dead)

Whoopee!

7. Metal is SUCKY work-out music.
Edited on Tue Dec-07-04 05:32 PM by BiggJawn

There ain't nothing can get you up and going like the Village People or Abba...

14. Depends on the definition of Disco
If you mean Studio 54 American 70's style (i.e. Bee Gees, Blondie etc) then it always sucked and always will. If you mean cool Euro and UK disco (i.e. Modern Talking, Petshop Boys, Cerrone, Erasure, Bony M etc.) then it RULES and always will.

16. Disco can be great. But there needs to be a mix of substance-related music
as well.
