Song was OK but cannot believe it was #1 for the year. Had it on my contest last year because of that. Disjointed and spastic without much tunefulness.
Pretty sad if that is what killed disco.
OTOH I think the perfect linkage between the ‘70s and ‘80s was “Funkytown”. Perfect year, and so much like disco but with the stronger syncopation and electronics of the pop/punk ‘80s.
“Funkytown” is actually regarded as the last “disco” song to reach #1.
I put it in quotes because, as many have pointed out, disco never really “died” after that.
