Just in case someone wants to pick up a compilation cd of some good Disco music, Undercover Brother is a great one! It has...We want the Funk, Got to Be Real, Play that Funky Music White boy, Shes a Bad Mama Jamma, Brick House, Love Train, and much more. Love this CD and look like an idiot singing in the car driving down the hwy!!!

I bought my hubby a copy of the Ohio Players greatest hits CD for Christmas and now he wants a Wild Cherry CD for his B-day. With all this disco playing going on at our house, you would think that We had a disco ball in our living room!

Thanks for the top 50 list. I am suprised that Shes a bad Mamma Jamma didn't make it (unless I missed it).

I hope someone performs Last Dance by Donna Summer...on the other hand, I do NOT want to see anyone perform I Will Survive, or Ring my Bell.

The disco girl (Ryan Starr) sang "Last Dance" last year. It was the first AI I saw. I voted for her and she got booted. Go figure.

I see Trenyce singing "Ring My Bell". Unfortunately Kim Caldwell chooses "I Will Survive" - it's a natural choice for such an attention hog. I see Clay choosing "Oh What a Night". Kimberly Locke sings "Lady Marmalade".

Crazydog..Ryan was out of her league last year and had you seen the previous shows you would have known that the sentiment against her was building.

Disco. I was a young teen when disco was all the rage.

I see Corey singing Disco Duck. He can really show off his upper register again. Snerk!

I also thought of "Oh What a Night" for Clay.

Corey will probably do some Bee Gees...it will let him get some of those high squeaky notes he likes so much.

I could see Josh singing something from the Village People (wouldn't that be a riot?)

Carmen...When Will I See You Again.

Julia...I'm coming out

Kimberly C...Turn the Beat Around

Kimberbly L...Love to Love You

Demeter, I had the same thought on Kim C. That really seems like her song, Turn the Beat Around. I have no idea what Josh will sing! I could really do without Disco Night, there must be some other themes to replace it.

Ruben - Disco Inferno. No doubts!!

Clay - don't know, his funky enunciations might make things sound weird. Maybe "Celebration" or "Night Fever" if it was dropped a register or two...

Josh - Play That Funky Music/Boogie Shoes

Corey - Staying Alive/Boogie Nights

Ricky - Kung Fu Fighting/You Make Me Feel(Mighty Real)/Rock Your Baby

Kimberly C - Turn the Beat Around (Good call Demeter! I think so too! Not much range needed.)

Julia - Love Hangover/He's The Greatest Dancer

Trenyce - Hot Stuff/Ring My Bell/I'm Coming Out

Carmen - Xanadu/I Love The NightLife

Kim L. - whatever she wants!!! Seriously, I think this is the week her voice will shine. There are plent of great "dance diva" songs she can belt. I'm personally hoping for "Don't Leave Me This Way" or "Boogie Oogie Oogie"!

I thought of "Oh What A Night" for Clay, too. :) That was the only one I could think of... Trenyce might do good with "Don't Leave Me This Way."

I think Kim C. should sing "Last Dance"... for some reason I can hear her singing it. It has that "Cher" sound like the last song she sang... not that I cared for that song, but that's what I am feeling...

I hope someone sings "It's raining Men" Maybe Kimberly C.????

<"Just in case someone wants to pick up a compilation cd of some good Disco music...">

I didn't know there was such a thing as "good disco music!" LOL.

Can you tell I'm not much of a disco fan? Have to admit I was very glad it was a relativly short-lived fad!

This one is going to be a little hard to sit through for me. But, I guess I'll have to manage! I guess there are a few songs I sort of like. I remember once or twice thinking, "that's a disco song? Gee, and I thought it was kinda okay!"

Whoami, there were good disco songs...they were the ones you thought were "kinda okay"!! :)

Like all music fads there's classic stuff, and corny stuff. Hopefully, there will be an "80s" night with alternative-snth band songs and hair-metal...just kidding!

If there is any divine power(s) in the universe, Corey's disco song will be "A Fifth of Beethoven"...!!

I think this will be Trenyce's week to shine. I can see her being able to pull off any of the disco songs. Kim Locke too. I wouldn't be surprised to hear either one of them sing Lady Marmalade or Last DAnce or Don't Leave Me This Way.
I also think Corey might do well with the BeeGee's, Rickey too.
I can see Clay doing ~Oh What A Night~.
Kim C, Carmen and Julia can find something that fits them also.
Josh is going to have to hardest time fitting into disco, imo.
