    Repetitive disco songs

    Forget Silver Convention's Fly, Robin, Fly & Get Up And Boogie, Donna Summer's Love To Love You Baby & I Feel Love and El Coco's Let's Get It Together :)

    Try
    Love Unlimited's High Steppin' Hip Dressin' Fella (You Got It Together)
    and
    Patrick Cowley's
    Invasion

    :)

    I don't think that being repetitive is a drawback for a club track! On the contrary, many great floorfiller are absolutely repetitive since this makes the tension grow, just think of Gino Soccio's "Dancer" or Bohannon's "Let's start the dance"

    Repetition can take us to heaven (Gino Soccio's synth-break on "Dancer") or to hell (Michael Jackson's shouts on "Can You Feel It") :)

    And there was KC and The Sunshine band's "Keep It Comin' Love" which had the title about ten times in a row near the end.

    Not that I dislike the song, but count how many times Grace Jones says "I Need a Man" in her classic hit.

    Lonnie Liston Smith - Expansions!

    Who would have thought that 2 bars of music could sound so good! - Mind you - I bet the Double bass player got a bit bored of playing the same 2 bars throughout the song!!

    Ripple - The Beat goes on

    Just 2 Chords just goes to prove that sometimes less is more!!

    The 12" of 'Sweet Delight' by Woods Empire from '81 gets highly repetitive in the 2nd half. I fade it about 3 minutes b4 the end! :lol:

    Push Push In The Bush

    "Push Push In The Bush" was repetitive in addition to being inane and was one of the songs that signalled the inevitable decline of disco. The song was a favorite of morons everywhere, particularly in Brooklyn on 18th Avenue, which in 1978 was the undisputed moron capital of NYC, second only to Bath Avenue. (You ex-Brooklynites will know what I mean.)

    The 12 inch version of Earth, Wind and Fire's "Boogie Wonderland" is just

    "dance, boogie wonderland... ha, ha..."

    over and over and over and over... Nice song, but not at nine minutes with the same phrase repeated ad nauseam.
