    About 11 years ago, I had to do 5 months in an Arizona prison for ladies (I hadn't broken any of God's rules) .... One afternoon, in the shower I heard the most precious voice I had ever heard, a sister inmate, was singing this song, all the verses. She was inside another curtain, showering. She had a beautiful voice, strong and pitch perfect. At that moment, I came to love this song.

    @richardfrancis8476 Před 3 lety +7

    YES, Check it, let me first say that this song was about an abused woman who survived and thrived. Back in 78'. Disco was HUGE. The movie Saturday Night Fever was the movie to go see and everyone wanted to live that. Some of the major Clubs in New York City were Studio 54 and in Brooklyn 2001 Odyssey. I was too young to go to them so I used to go to teen discos when I was 13. The hustle was the dance that everyone used to know and this song made you want to get up on that floor and dance. If you were not at the clubs, roller rinks were the big place to hang out at. There were a few female black artists during this time that recorded really great songs like this. I will add a couple to my Ricardos Recommendations List.

      Some of those guys had to really be talked into doing that scene. But I get why they chose that song - it’s the last thing you’d expect football players to be dancing to.

    1978 when this song came out. I was 12 years old, too young for a boyfriend. However, my older sister and most of her friends got dumped or broke up with their boyfriends, and my oldest sister ran out and brought this album every day her friends came over for months. Listening to this, but I love this song😂

    I love this song. Gloria Gaynor recently did a video with this song to show the importance of washing your hands during COVID 19.

    Classic disco music. Gloria Gaynor had a wonderful voice. You could do I Never Can Say Goodbye from her.

    Another disco queen to react to would be Donna Summer - "Last Dance"! Yes!
