I believe Steve recorded this in his home studio in Bolingbrook, home of “the only McDonalds where you could actually get a bad Big Mac!”
EL MEDIOCRE SIEMPRE INTENTA DESTRUIR, SIMILAR AL PAYASO DE STEVE DAHL, UN POBRE SUJETO QUE SOLAMENTE SERVIRIA COMO EL ESTUPIDO DE LA FIESTA..
Go away you dillweed.
Steve Dahl is a stupid
But YOU are smart. lol
Of course, a lesson in old-school copyright law. Dahl almost got litigated for passing off the Stewart song as his own, but I know about Dahl's comedy in that cover song, so that song was a parody after all. Falls under Section 107 of the Act--it is fair use because it was a "parody" of an already copyrighted song.
I heard that back in the day he was a closet Bee Gees fsn😅
tonight, 45 years ago, was disco demolition! TGIF--- Fri. July 12, 2024.
Clearly heterosexual depictions here. Nice try losers. Long live R n R! Coho!
Get a life.
Dr. Demento brung me here
Steve Dahl and Rick Dees made disco into the butt of may jokes (Disco Duck, anyone?).
Bought this when it came out. At the time I was fiercely anti-disco.
Incroyable 🇫🇷
He has a book out for anyone who is interested about his infamous night at Comiskey Park in Chicago in 1979.
title? any info on it?
I remember it well! Disco Demolition at Comiskey Park! Good times, baby! good times!
The death of disco paved the way for new genres of music, including new wave, house and post-disco...
...disco paved the way for new wave, house, and post-disco
@@notokmusic4118and then house proceeded to influence pop, essentially becoming a huge global phenomenon with artists such as madonna and lady gaga including house elements in their songs, while electro house proceeded to have artists like daft punk ans bob sinclair, and is still popular with guys like swedish house mafia and porter robinson. this double chin mf must've been pissed when he realized all he did was speed up disco's ascension lmao
Seb?
Hello? "Could you connect me with Iraqi Fried Chicken?" Still a ribsplitter.
I HATE THIS MAN
That's your problem.
Why because you’re a f@&&01
I love disco but I still love this song lol. Never fails to make me smile, and it is pretty true
If he wasn't fired from W4 in Detroit in 1978. Most likely "Disco Demolition Night" would have happened at Tiger Stadium and would have caused an even bigger uproar.
The way Steve Dahl felt about disco in the 1970s is how some people felt about country music and rap music crossing over onto the pop charts in the 1990s...
So radio djs have always been terminally unfunny
Steve Dahl was sick of disco songs hijacking the radio airwaves and leaving very little room for rock 'n roll in the late 1970s...it's the very reason he started an anti-disco bonfire at a baseball game and created anti-disco songs like this...
We need a new version to get the garbage music produced now out. A new demolition night of sorts. Get rid of all the tasteless, talentless, filthy, electronic robotic oversampled crap from the last 25 years.
@@arthuridis That will be impossible. Not going to happen!
@@Justin-Hill-1987 Just a thought.
The disco demolition man himself...
I think that rock now is almost dead and disco still rocks¡¡¡¡
Rock rocks disco sucks #facts
I love rock but it's essentially killed itself by refusing any form of innovation since the 70s
So I haven’t heard this song in like 35 years and after hearing it today, I think I’ll be good for the next 35 years. and
45 years?
tonight, 44 years ago, was disco demolition! last night, for the first time in 11 years, the NL finally won the All-Star game! --- Wed. July 12, 2023. p.s. today Bill Cosby turns 86.
Steve "Mark Chapma" Dahl hated Lennon too. 😂😂😂😂
He's a *ick...Bee Gees Rule
Shattup figgit
Let;s do both
We have Rod Stewart to thank for this song in more ways than one! Not only is it a parody of Stewart's "Do Ya Think I'm Sexy?," but when it came out Stewart's manager tried to get him to sue Dahl and have it taken off the market the way Led Zeppelin did with Little Roger and the Goosebumps' "Gilligan's Island Stairway." Fortunately, Rod Stewart heard Dahl's record and loved it. He told his manager, "Leave it alone. I think it's hilarious!"
If only more posters had something interesting to say... Thank you.
Actually Rod profited from this single. He had his name on the single as a writer, plus received royalties for the music. The single also sold 500,000 copies. I was the VP Marketing of Ovation at the time as well as the Co-Producer of the single.
Rod Stewart was in the process of being sued by Boby Womack and Jorge Ben Jo for using their music for his song when this one came out.
Not true at all. As the Producer of the song, I can totally tell you that Rod only wanted to be listed as a "Co-Writer" of the song, listed on the credits, and paid his royalties. He actually loved Steve's version. We granted that wish in a heart beat! It was never taken off the market, as all the legalities were finalized before the release.
I listened to him back in 78-79, but his show and creativity ran out of gas around 1980.
when he had Jim Volkman on doing his Harry Caray impersonation, i never heard Steve laugh so hard when Jim V started saying his last name backwards, Dahl spelled backwards is LAID
Nobody wanted to remember who Tommy Skillethead was when he recently retired. I'll take Weathermen for $500 Alex!
We need an anti woke parody of a song this!
Finally, the worst possible song to ever exist
Yes. Trying to pin anti gay sentiment on Dahl is ludicrous. This literally describes a hetero encounter in a dance club. Try harder and listen to rock with your ears, not your feet and your ass.
I will never say anything bad about Steve Dahl.
Yeah it satirizes Rod Stewart - and heavily borrows from Zappa’s ‘Dancin Fool’ from 1978
I met Steve Dahl when I was a kid and he worked for I believe WDUI radio. I watched him single handedly take out DISCO and start the " Disco Sucks " revolution for ROCK and ROLL going into. the 80's . He played a very important role in what we hear now ! This tune is still very funny , but Steve Dahl is one of my D.J. heroes. He is a Musical Tme Changer and should be acknowledged as such by EVERYONE!!!!
La disco vive😂😂😂😂😂en películasde Hollywood salen😂😂😂😂este tipo no sabe nada es un estúpido como todo lo que dices
WDAI, you ignoramus...DUI is a traffic offense.
Disco Sucks
"Death before Disco" t-shirts. "STOP Disco" traffic signs. ('Disco' spray painted under the STOP.) Good fun.
happy 43rd anniversary to Disco Demolition! Tue 7-12-22.
As is typical for modern "journalists" the episode is now, apparently, an ugly example of white rage. White guys destroying black music enjoyed by gays and women that enjoyed dancing. If you were there, you probably have a different take.
I thought I remembered hearing this decades before but I wasn't sure & if I did, I thought it was Weird Al.
Music.
Wow!! One of my favorites songs!!! I love Sir Tom Jones The Best forever!!!💓💓💓💓💓👏👏👏👏👏
F*CK THIS GUY!!!! He is racist, latinophobic, homophobic, and misogynistic...Because he hated a music genre that brought White, Black, Hispanic, Gay and Women all together...he hated the fact that there was music that would unite everyone...so he sought to destroy it...he only liked rock...the music for white males...and he wanted to keep it that way...
People are allowed to just not like some music, y'know....
Disco sucks I’m glad it’s dead
Except he and others parodied the "white losers on the make" who appropriated the culture of gays, blacks, Hispanics, &tc. No where in this song does he mention any of those minority groups, just the kind of losers who used it to do cocaine and get laid once the women were wasted beyond consent.
Wake up people. This man was a racist and a homophobic!
SHAME HE DESERVES BETTER
😒
This protest song was released as a single in 1979 on Dick Schory’s Ovation Records, the same label that brought you the “Magical Music of Walt Disney” 4-LP boxed set jammed pack with musical moments from Disney classics.
A poor man’s Howard Stern....
other way around. Howard Stern even admitted that Dahl was the biggest influence on his shock jock style
Steve: One of a kind !!! We saw him wack his head ( and helmet ) with a disco record at Mothers 1979 what a fun night !!!
Weird Al owes his whole career to this guy!!! I bought this 45. cuz I hated Disco so much. By the way,,, I have a Led Zeppelin belt buckle! No apology!! 🤪🎸🎸🎸
Ah, the great Steve Dahl! Loved his stuff. 'Nother Dr. Demento fan here as well.
Never caught on. I thought it was cute. lol
