Old School Music Friday....

OK, let me just confess that I haven't posted in a couple of days, cause these here Republicans have put Madame Invisible in a deep and complete funk. I was so angry the morning after Sarah Palin's speech that on my way to work, some old dude honked at me and flashed his lights cause I changed lanes in front of him, tho I was a clear 3 car lengths ahead of him. I was in a foul mood, so I switched lanes and slowed down to look at his ass, and lo and behold--he looked exactly like Dick Cheney--only fueling my pissed-offedness to the ninth degree. I must have chased that fool for blocks, yelling every obscenity I could think of. The dude looked like he was gonna pass out on the dashboard. Afterward, I knew that that I must not let these f*cking idiots get the best of me, and tried to focus on things that didn't make me want to roundhouse kick somebody in the face. This week meme, "Disco" makes me feel a bit better.

I used to sing this song in front of a mirror and pretend I was a straight diva when I sang it (even tho I was already one in the making, haha). My parents would play this song, and I loved it to death...and still do. The Diva that sang it (yes, with a capital D) came into a new horizon with this song (if I remember correctly, it was produced by the dudes from Chic)....and even tho this You Tube video doesn't have the full song, those of you who know it won't need it anyway. I chose it because it gave me extra levity when I watched it--I laughed out loud; the backup dancers are zestier than 10 bags of Florida oranges, straight from "The House Of La'Beija", and the precursors to Madonna's "Vogue" video before she even knew what was up. Check out the video, if only just for them!

Update: I meant to talk about this part but I forgot (thanks sdg1844!)...now that I'm older I know that this song is all about getting some righteous Vitamin D(ifyaknowwhatimean)--were my parents horrified when they heard me yelling out this song? haha!
