      In the late 70s, I lived 1-1/2 blocks from Alfie's Disco in San Francisco, and I used to go there every night and dance for at least two hours. This was my aerobic exercise for the day. I did not go on week-ends generally because there was a $1 cover charge (and it was too crowded), and on weeknights, I only spent 25 cents for the coat check. I did not buy drinks, but I did help make the place look busier during the week, and I flirted with people who did buy drinks. I started several great relationships there.

      Something everyone everywhere could get into, a trailblazing development showcasing a lot of new production techniques like the use of samplers - A distinct part of why it got done dirty in the US. In contrast to what the Comiskey Park crowd in '79 would say, though, Disco's been thoroughly vindicated by history. Its influence is everywhere!

      @@theodoreritola7641 I'll tell you why that happens.
      More than one person uploads the same video to KRplus. The first person uploads the video,then another person copies it and uploads it again. That's why you see different views later on when you happen to see the videos again.
      If you compare the name of the person who uploaded the video, you'll notice it is a different person.
      So, if you remember that a song had 100 million views , and later you notice that it shows only 20 million views, it is not the same exact video & from the original person who placed it or uploaded onto KRplus, the lesser views video should be for the copied video and which was uploaded/placed on KRplus later on.

      I dunno, the 90s untied a once youth(and adults) of the UK that would meet after football with snooker balls is socks, bottles, knives, baseball bats etc to injure one another as much as possible then came rave. Those people who once tried to injure one another walked arm in arm in the streets of London to give us the freedom to “dance” together. Imo the 90s was the last decade where music was used in a way to stop people fighting and joined people like they did in the 60s and 70s with the hippy movement against war, peace ✌️ ☮️
      Since then I can’t think of anything major like that happening since.
