    This has been on my playlist for while a now, and I just saw it's in top 20 hits ever. That voice is just..




    I would absolutely love if music like this was pop nowadays. Any old-timers here remember it coming out?

    all the advertising companies trawling the classic oldies looking for something to help sell their wares. its a great song though, i mean, how does the conversation go? "Excuse me ma'am, but do you by any chance like to dance?" what a song in fairness.

    Words cannot express how much I detest that song.

    Actually, they just did, but you know what I mean.

    I remember when this came out. They were a nice appearance on the TV screens for a while.

    I love how badly they are pronouncing the words. It is even more audible in their next song Sorry I'm a Lady.

    You could write an epic poem if you really wanted to convey your hatred.

    A Spotify playlist from the Rubberbandits full of old disco classics. That Baccara song is on it.
    T'would get a paraplegic dancing.

    Edit: It's a while since I've played it but it's worth a listen just to see where so many of the samples in modern music come from.
