Well, that was a period when you had to know how to sing, and computers did not "color in" your voice like they do now. Nowadays it is like the more "skin" you show the better and the more background dancers you have supposed to have will make your act better. I tend to seriously disagree in every sense.
That's true. But I have to say...these old songs have a way of reminding you of loved ones that are no longer with you, that's what makes them hard to listen to sometimes.

I do! I’m sure it represents something meaningful…My guess is the shark fin represents the unexpected things that will happen, because nothing in life will be perfect…And if something/someone ruins your day, just make the best of it~! 😄 The cruise ship in the background (I think) represents moving onwards with life, putting the past behind us, and overcoming mishaps that will happen in everybody’s lives…☺️
I was 17 when this song came out in 1975 i was going out with my first boyfriend we got engaged when i was 17 too i still love this song to this day im 62 now but i still remember when i was 17 like it was back in 1975 and at college studying hairdressering they were the best times ever 😊❤️

Sorry to break the chain with the ages, but 29 here, and I've listened to this song at least 100 times in the last 6 months. Can't get sick of it, and I love the video because she's not being too over-expressive. Looks like she is she genuinely singing with appropriate body language.
@@JaxonSmithers Sounds like a baritone sax. I think it stands out so much because most music from this era had horn sections instead of just one blasting out its own notes. It is pretty sick tbh...

I’m with you in 2024. When I was a little girl me and one of aunts used to dance around to this on Saturday mornings while she doing her chores. She’s gone now. I heard the song on the Blacklist and burst into tears. Then I found it on UA-cam and now I’m laughing and dancing around my bedroom. I’m the oldest child of teenage parents. My aunts on both sides spoiled me unapologetically. I needed those memories tonight💜
I had my first girlfriend at age 15. Her name is Denise. One time after church she played the opening notes of this song on the piano. Now whenever I hear it it takes me "right back" to that sweet time. I'm now 62.
I'm with you. at my Amazon job, they have a playlist that plays 'modern', 'urban' music that has a quick tick, tick, tick in the background. I didn't realize I might be on the spectrum until last year.
I’m 54 and there are times when certain songs just pops in my head…this is one of those gems!!!! Good vibes music!!!! Just dance!!!! Who’s still listening to in 2024?!?!?!
Born in 1969 and I am *SO* grateful I experienced so much great music through the decades. 1970's, 1980's and 19090's were amazing times. I wouldn't give it up for anything.
You're not alone. I have to go regularly to a center for treatment of serious illnesses. The first stop is lab tests. One day everything was backed up, and everyone had to wait longer. So the ladies at the front desk started playing disco songs on the radio where we everyone could hear. It made such a difference! Yeah, we're old, but 48 years ago, we had the moves! We ought to hear that music again. 🎵 ♥️
Just turned 11y.o when this song came out. I reflect on it now. I had an awesome childhood . We didn't have much then, but the love of family was priceless. That was the strength that held us together. 👍🏾💯😎
Loved this song i was only 11 i have never forgotten the words to her song. Crazy ha. Her the Jacksons , osmonds, it was classic. We grew up in best decades!
@@Maya-Hayden depends where you’re from. I’m from Buffalo ny and it wasn’t that bad growing up in the ‘70’s, but of course I was only about 6 or 7 back then too

Brings back some wonderful memories. I just love this tune; beautiful voice, beautiful girl. She should have had more success. She is very talented.❤❤❤❤
I always think of 'Slap Shot' whenever I hear this song as that was where I first heard it when I first saw the movie back in early 1992. Beautiful singing voice.
I was 21 when this was a hit in 1975 . You can not beat the 70s for good music .
Amen on that!!!!
While I was about 5 which means it's been about 48 years since I heard this song. I just hope it's another 48 years before I hear it again.
Well, there was that disco thing 🤔😀…..
Does this song remind you of an AM radio or what...a "buzzy" one!

Me too.
I was about 6, still love it 🔥

the movie Slap Shot brought me here. classic fim classic song
I think I caught it on an episode of The Blacklist while it was airing on TV.
Every time I hear this song I think of the movie Slap Shot :)
Same!
Fucken rights
Slapshot was great! I need watch that again soon! It's been years.
I call this "feel good" music. With all that is going on these days it helps us feel better.
That's what Disco was! Feel-good, uplifting music!!! Why the disco genre got such a bad rap is something I will never understand.

Now I know why today’s elderly are always happy.
This made me happy just for a second but now I have to remember we are currently stuck with the democrat party and vulgar rap.
Three years later, after the presidential election, it's even worse. May our democracy survive.
Anyone else notice the shark gliding by in the glitter waves? Love this song!
