Default Olympic Disco

OK. I was glued to NBC for 2 weeks and still have about 12 VHS tapes to view. So, sports fans, who can tell me what disco artist's music graced one of the Olympic events? (I know only 'cause it showed up on one of the tapes. :roll: )

Clues forthcoming for the weary... :D

Good try, BobbyNunn, but not the one used in this sports event. How about a label clue: Artist was on CASABLANCA.

"Push, Push, In the Bush (Tush)"???? :lol: :lol: :lol:

On David Letterman a week or so ago, Paul Shaffer cleverly played this when NY Times columnist Maureen Dowd made her entrance to promote her book Bushworld: Enter At You Own Risk

I only watched a little bit here and there and only because my girlfriend made me sit down and relax with her. I'm going to guess something like Michael Sembello's "Maniac?"

Good one, Bernie, but not it.

See if you can pull it out of this 'puzzle'. You should get the song, which will give you the artist.

Ready... :) :

This guy pleaded for what Jerry Butler found so 'mellow' with Brenda Lee Eager. :D

"Breakin' up is hard to do"-Neil Sedaka?

Don't laugh at me if I'm wrong-Regis Philbin phoned me the answer :oops:

:lol: No, it's not old Neil. I guess Understanding Ain't so Mellow after all.

The song/artist was:

"Don't Let Me Be Misunderstood" by Santa Esmeralda, used by one of the female gymnasts in her floor excercise. Kinda nice.

What Irony. I was watching 54 for the first time last night. :oops: :D I forgot Salma was in that. In fact a lot of my favorite actresses are in that movie. Anyway, I digress. :lol: Don't Let Me Be Misunderstood is on the soundtrack. Digressing again, is this soundtrack as good if not better than the Saturday Nigh Fever? Sorry to do this to your post Nicky. Ya see, if you were still moderatin' you could slap me around with the power of a moderator :D
