Who are you to ask. Seriously. You have no felling what this truly represents. Were you even alive then. It was mean and I don't like it. But to answer your question I give the BeeGees a 10 KC and the Sunshine Band a 10 and Disco rules. Do you even know what disco represented. It represented the Gay community and how much fun one could have if they just relax. I am not Gay and I was Born in 64. Please consider taking this CR** down. It no longer fits. Yes the video gets a 10 whatever.

True. But…when exactly did the “Disco Sucks” period emerge?

[@ziff_1]

@@meknottyou3998 "The anti-disco backlash, often referred to as "Disco Demolition Night," took place on July 12, 1979, at Comiskey Park in Chicago. This event is widely considered a significant turning point in the decline of disco's popularity. The backlash was driven by a combination of factors, including changes in musical tastes, racial and cultural tensions, and a sense of rebellion against what some perceived as a commercial and formulaic music genre." - ChatGPT

[@ali-jean]

You're so right! Donna Pescow was a MUCH better dancer than the female lead whose name escapes me....I thought so back when the movie first came out as well....

[@howareyou857]

Yes, While I agree with all of what you say, I think this is part of the nuance, she isnt a great dancer, she fabricates a lot to bolster her own ego, she has slept around - yet Tony chases her because she appears different (a ‘dream girl’) to the girls he is hanging around. Facts are Lorraine dances better, was a ‘virgin’ at the start of the film and wanted to get married - Tony pushed this away, he is confused with the madonna / whore complex of the time. It’s about chasing a fantasy, both on the dance floor and in his love life - that turns out to be a delusion isnt it? In the end he has to compromise with friendship and the opportunity to grow into a more mature attitude alongside his dance partner.

Whoops. Too late.

This is the greatest scene in the entire film right here

Remember my Dad took me to this movie when I was 10. Remained one we watched together over the years. Watched again the year he was dying in 2015. He just grabbed my hand and said still one of the best movies I took you to. You loved it so much. When he died he owned the movie in his DVD COLLECTION. I have now.

I can’t believe Moe was not on the second movie. He was the most important character!

[@lkm347]

He was such a man's man. Incredibly handsome! He had it all. Mystery, talent galore, sense of humor wit. A beautiful man.

It seems like yesterday, when this movie changed my life. I was exactly 19 years old just like the character, and yes, I dressed like this and had a DA haircut. Even the Jewelry. And the platform shoes, until I got my Capezios. I also drank seven and seven and hung around a bunch of crazy friends. And we ate burgers at the same White Castle. The great times I had, will never be matched by anyone today. I danced all over New York, and New Jersey. I danced in Florida Discos and in Acapulco, Mexico. I was at most of all the top clubs in Manhattan. Clubs like The Fun House, Electric Circus, Adams Apple, The Red Parrot, Limelight, Studio 54, Regines, New York New York, Chevys, Bonds, Magique, Shout, and Roseland. In fact I met Madame Regine the owner of Regines. What a classy woman. She asked me how I like her place. And one of the owners of the Fun House, who was gay tried to pick me up in Fort Lauderdale. He sent two of his boys to ask me to have a drink with him. When I explained to him that I was straight, he asked me that I was familiar to him. I stated that I went to his club a lot, and that's how he knew me. So what does he do. He tries to set me up on a date with France Joli. You remember her with her hit, Come to Me. Yeah dumb me, I didn't go on the date since I was seeing someone. But there were other discos in other parts of the city I liked to visit, like Elephas, Lemon Tree, Plaza Suite, Romeo and Juliets, Banana's, L' Amour, The Arena and yes 2001 Odyssey. When I wanted to dance Latin, Side Street in The Bronx and Ochentas in Manhattan were my choices. The Jersey Shore had some nice discos too. Montego Bay, Casablanca, D'Jais, Surf Club, Temptations and The Sundance were my place to go. But I did have a personal favorite in the Bronx, called Strawberries Disco. It became like one of two home discos for me. Everyone knew me here. And yes, I had a girl wipe the sweat off my forehead after dancing. I even had two older nurses both proposed marriage to me. And a big limo one night stopped there and a man asked the coat check lady about me, but I wasn’t there. She told me the next night. But there were two other areas that I have to mention, since they also had some of the greatest discos. Westchester County and Long Island was rich with discos. Discos like Hoops, 2nd Floor, Fonzies, Lallipop, The Riviera, Peach Trees, Fudgies, January's, Marty and Lenny's, 21 North and The Milky Way In Westchester. And in Long Island, the list was too long for me to list. These were my favorites. Cherry's was like my other home disco. I dated the hottest waitress here, so I knew everyone there. She was my Stephanie. She also wanted to be an actress, and she was some dancer. Her mom was in the TV business as a hair stylist. My first real love. She broke my heart just like in the movie. Also, The Trammps performed there regularly, and were a bunch of nice guys. One New Years Eve, the stage almost collapsed from how crowded it was. I was dancing right next to them. Other disco's like Uncle Sams, Metro 700, La'tique, Chaz, 231, Zachary's, Channel 80 and my Hampton's favorites La'Plaz and Lemans gave me great memories. And let us not forget about Summers Beach, Hot Dog Beach and Neptune Beach. Nothing better to not only dance at the bar, but bring Pina Colada's to the beach. There were so many discos in the late 1970's and early 1980's. I had a disco for every night even on Monday. I still remember watching the movie. What a great thing for the young generation, as this movie just pushed young people to dance. There was nothing better than to do the Hustle, with a dance partner, girlfriend or even a stranger that you just met. I remember dancing the Hustle, with two young women at the Copacabana Club at the same time. it seemed like we danced together for years. And I remember like it was yesterday, after we ended our dance to Barry Manilow's Copacabana, how they looked dumbfounded. They asked me who was I. And I stated Tony. We actually got an ovation from the crowd. You will never see that today. I watch young people today, who can't get off their cell phones, and who is just not in good shape for their age. This disturbs me. I would never trade those days with the present. I continued to dance, and was invited on a local dance show on TV, The Soap Factory Dance Show, after being seen by a female employee of the show. She stated her boss, who was the producer, needed to watch me dance, and she later became my dance partner. Unfortunately she hurt her back and couldn't continue. I then became a regular dancer for the show. I was put with the cute twins to dance with. That was in 1978, and I met the likes of Blondie, Musique, Melba Moore, Karen Young, Amii Stewart, Anita Ward, Patrick Hernandez, A young Stephanie Mills, and Peaches and Herb. In fact, KZbin now has some videos of those shows. And in the video of Karen Young singing Hot Shot, I was dancing the hustle, on the left side on the stage with my partner. And in other videos on KZbin I am dancing with the cute twins. What great times. Even after the show was replaced, I continued to Dance, by going to Fred Astaire Studios, so to learn some dances from the old days. I remember walking up the stairs to the studio, and being met by the most beautiful blonde young lady I had ever seen. And I still remember dancing with her, since she wanted to check out my skills. And my God, we were both made for each other. It was effortless, and she was so beautiful. We had incredible chemistry together. Unfortunate for me it was her last week since she was going to dance in a Broadway Show. But she then introduced me to the owner, in her own right was a super looking blonde older lady. So she wanted to see for herself what her instructor was so excited about. So she wanted me to dance with another instructor, so to see what kind of dancer I was. After my audition, she offered me a contract to be a dance instructor instead, which I had to turn down due to I just bought my own business. So again, I was dancing ballroom, in such places like The Waldorf Astoria, The Playboy Club in Great Gorge, NJ and at The Fontainebleau Hotel in Miami, Florida. The friends that I made because of my dancing, was priceless. Friends from all over............New York, New Jersey, Chicago, Florida, Detroit and Philadelphia. To have the times I had with these great people were incredible. And yes, my name is really Tony and 100% Italian American. But my family only called me Anthony. And yes, people start identifying me as Tony Manero, after they watched me dance. I would start and the floor would clear for me. And I did win a dance trophy which I still have from a disco. But I would never wear that white suit. And at my wedding, the D.J and band I had, played music from Saturday Night Fever, and I was introduced as Tony, and performed a solo routine in front of 350 guests. I hope this wasn't too long for some, but when I think of those days, it brings a smile to my face. And I wish the young people of today could of had that those great times. And Thank You Mr. Travolta for doing a great job as Tony Manero. And to the writers who wrote the screenplay which was so strange how it was so similar to myself, and the disco life. And I am so sorry for the loss of your beautiful wife Kelly who was one lovely lady. And for your loss of your son. May they both Rest In Peace.🙏🙏🙏

What a great post Tony.... you had some life back in the day!! Good for you mate.... David in UK 👍👍🎼🎼❤️❤️🕺🕺🕺🕺

[@scottbrandon6244]

Good memories of the 1970s. It seemed like almost as fast as it appeared, disco disappeared. Only for five years tops. My friend had an interesting observation. He served in the military and was stationed at a base in Japan. When he returned to America there was this new craze called disco in full swing. And all the women wanted to go to the discos. And they all wanted to dance. So like Tony Manero he learned quickly how to dance. He then met some beautiful women. The best one he kept and made her his wife. They've been married now for over 40 years and have five children.

[@624radicalham]

So basically you were a male prostitute with all those men picking you up in limos. Don't kid people. You don't get that kind of attention from the gay community without being a closested gay metrosexual yourself. They can smell you a mile away that's why you got so much attention from men. No shame in being gay, just admit it. By the way all of those clubs you mentioned truly were magical. Superb write up that young people just don't have today.

Those of us who lived this will never forget it. A fun time to be single and free. Women dressed up and looked good. The rest of the story is X rated.

[@gregoryphillips3969]

Travolta in this movie matched the intensity, coolness, machismo, and charisma of a lead actor better than anyone who has ever been on screen with the exception of early Marlon Brando. He was a great dancer, who was also part of a street gang, yet was sensitive enough to show real vulnerability in a way that didn't diminish him as a tough guy. But he was also wise enough at the end to realize that he needed to reach out for more when it came to his goals and relationships. One of the greatest performances in one of the best movies of all time.

[@susanjoycesabo8450]

Summer of 1978 was so memorable for me. I had a summer job in D.C. before entering medical school that fall. Saturday Night Fever was being shown in theaters and I saw it with a group from work. Then at night I partied at the discos in Georgetown. Fantastic times without drugs or alcohol for me!

Yes that movie was great, the way John Travolta handle his dancing situations during the contest truly showed him to be an matured man. He gave his award to the Latin couple. The thing I don’t understand is in 2023 you think they would point out their dancing also. It would be great.
