Lately I've had a bad case of disco fever, so I've decided to post a video showing the top 50 disco hits. The only difference between this video and every other evolution/top 30 video I've done, is that this video's song list was put together by me. No, this isn't a list of my personal favorite disco songs (because lets face it, very few people care about what an uploader's favorite songs are), it's simply a video where I took a look at some very accurate song lists, and used them to make this video. So if you think there is a song that should or shouldn't be on this list, I am willing to have a debate with you :).

Honorable Mentions (Songs that were originally gonna be on the video):

Stars on 45- This song was removed because it's a collage of other disco songs that are already on the video.

Rapper's Delight- It's more of a rap song. I wanted songs that are at least 80% disco.

Thriller, Billie Jean- Both where a bit past the disco era, and are leaning towards other genres like funk.
