Bad Girl Anthem

DISCO NEWS ALERT
Remember Gloria Gaynor? She wrote that rockin’ song I Will Survive (which hit the top of the list today in 1979–24 years
ago!!). When I learned this exciting news I was reminded of the fiery disco fad that was an integral and defining portion of
our high school years. Yes, it’s true–Carrie and I (and most of our other friends too!) listened the entire Pure Disco
Collection over and over and over and over and over and over again during those important years. We were so influenced
by the disco movement that we had a senior portrait done in disco-ish outfits. HAHAHAHA! In addition, we found self-
instruction records and taught ourselves how to “do the Hustle” with flashy Queen Motifa style. We even performed this
choreographed dance technique at our Senior Ball, and once videotaped ourselves Hustling in unison (you are going to
have to do some serious begging if you want to see photos of that night / live video streaming of The Synchronized Hustlers).
In tribute to this (today-much-unappreciated) musical era, here is a special audio-visual version of I Will Survive
that I think you will all find highly amusing– whether you’re a Disco Lover or not. Happy Dancing!
