No, no, please don't

OK, I know it's a Bank Holiday and a long weekend [yay!], but there is still a party atmosphere in the air at the end of any week.

So, of course, we need to get our satinette leggings and knee-boots on to greet our forthcoming (hopefully) sunny long weekend - with a most peculiar Europop number...

...and Thank Disco It's (Good) Friday!

What the fuck was that all about? No idea.

Have a fantabulosa Easter weekend, dear reader!

  1. Another gem from the not-quite-rehearsed-enough school of musical theater.

  3. Oh... my.... word. She can barely sing. English is clearly not her first language. The song is a pile of dung. But that choreography! And I love the clueless gay guy in the background doing his own thing. And 1978? A little late in the game to be this unsophisticated. Of course, Ring My Bell by Anita Ward was still to come, but this? This is 1974 terrible. Thanks for unearthing it. Now do the world a favor and re-bury it. Kizzes.

    1. Brings to mind the superior Armed And Extremely Dangerous! First Choice!

    2. If Armed And Extremely Dangerous were sung by a very bad, very drunk karaoke "singer". Jx

      PS I have a soft spot for Ring My Bell by Anita Ward - it was the big summer hit the year I turned sixteen...

  5. Was that actually a hit in 1978?!? I can’t believe (well, yes I can) I never saw it before. You nailed it. “What the fuck was that all about?”

    1. I think it might have been a hit in Belgium. Which explains a lot. Jx

  6. I totally missed the disco age being too busy birthin' and nursin' babies, sweetpea! xoxo

    p.s. Fortunately, I am aware of the good stuff that highlighted the decade. ;)

  7. And the fellow (right at the beginning) stroking his moustache? I thought he was part of the act.
