What was the inspiration for this odd word/thing? I have no idea. So, lets get started:
Dictionary.com definition:
- a style of popular music for dancing, usually recorded and with complex electronic instrumentation, in which simple, repetitive lyrics are subordinated to a heavy, pulsating, rhythmic beat.
- any of various forms of dance, often improvisational, performed to such music.
No, no, no. When was this written? The 70's?? Who the heck likes disco? I mean, really? That's what people listen to when they're about to get beat up. WTH? And if I had to listen to disco, I would not disco dance. I mean, way to ruin your personal image.
UrbanDictionary.com definition:
- A genre of black music that the rock fans hated mainly because EVERYBODY enjoyed and danced to it, and rock music was pretty much going down the toilet at that time. The era of disco ended in 1979 when an event called Disco Demolition Night, which was held at the ChicagoWhite Sox stadium , quickly became one of the worst sports disasters of the century when disgruntled rock fans wrecked the stadium while racing to get the disco records burned and blown up.
- A place to cause a panic.
- Disco is a difficult form of competitive dancing mostly done in the UK and surrounding areas. It has pretty much nothing to do with the steryotpe of older disco music. Disco today uses fast club/dance music and requires agility, flexibility, grace, coordination, and good endurance. Competitions are usually held on Sunday's except some last all weekend. Dancers train extensivley during the week. They wear highly decorated costumes, often called cozzies, that are designed to stand out and be noticed by the judges during competition. Disco moves can include kicks, spins, leaps, and balances
Yup, it did die, much too late. And yes, if I was at a disco, I WOULD cause a freaking panic. To turn off the disco. And, when dancers on dance shows have to dance disco, they know it's a suicide mission. Those people are out the next day, because when the disco comes on, the TV's turn off.
