Hi, my name is Alex.
I'm a Discoholic.
Been a Discoholic for about, 8 years now?
3 years now.
I don't know how long I've been a Discoholic for, honestly.
And it's been hard to stop collecting records from Earth, Wind, & Fire...
Whenever I hear that Chic or...
...Sister Sledge...
...Kool & the Gang...
…you name it.
It's hard.
I just can't control myself...
I can't stop dancing, I just can't stop moving.
Discoholics Anonymous
Get off that phone & move your feet
'Cause there's no cure for a sound so sweet
Other sounds just can't compete
Discoholics Anonymous
Just hang up & get on the floor
(Just hang up & get on the floor)
'Cause there's no cure for a sound so pure
Making you come back for more
(Other sounds just can't compete)
(Making you come back for more)
It's gotten to the point where I listen to nothing but Disco. I don't even think I could listen to any other genre.
One time my friends & I spent an entire day listening to the entirety of Cheryl Lynn's discography. The 1st rule was no potty breaks.
I don't even know why I called in the 1st place. I don't think I'm ever gonna quit Disco.

Do you ever see the stars at night
And know there's someone out there
Seeing the same thing
Saying the same prayer
Somehow reflections never seem to really compare
But when I'm with you
It all becomes clear
(Ooh, we have something in common)
And I'm so glad I found you
So glad I found you, oh
(Once in a lifetime like a comet)
Now I know for sure
That you're my destiny
I've never seen you before
When you walked thru that door
You're familiar (You're familiar)
You're familiar (Ooh-oh)
I only just got a taste
Shot me right up to space
You're familiar (You're familiar)
You're familiar
Familiar
You're familiar
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
(No I didn't really want to,
No I didn't, no I didn't really want to fall in love
No I didn't really want to, no I didn't really want to,
No I didn't, no I-)
(No I didn't really want to,
No I didn't, no I didn't really want to fall in love)
3, 2, 1
When you find what we have better hold on tight to it
‘Cause it may not come around again
Don't sleep through it
I know already what this love's gonna be
I just can't wait until you finally get the chance to see
(Ooh, we have something in common)
And I'm so glad I found you
So glad I found you, oh
(Once in a lifetime like a comet)
Now I know for sure
That you're my destiny
I've never seen you before
When you walked thru that door
You're familiar (You're familiar)
You're familiar (Ooh-oh)
I only just got a taste
Shot me right up to space
You're familiar (You're familiar)
You're familiar
Familiar
You're familiar

I wasn't sure before,
But now I know that we're right,
(All I want is you)
And all I want is more,
Let's keep the fire burnin' bright
(Woah)
You know I'm sitting here,
Trying to send that 1st text,
(Trying to send that 1st text)
I love what we are & I don't wanna end up as your ex
(Wait, what am I saying?)
(What am I saying?)
I'm just wondering if you think you're still down to get down
All the disco lights are on let's boogie on down tonight
(Ho ho, ho ho)
(Ho ho, ho ho)
I've known you for so long,
But I've just met you
(Can't get you off my mind)
Sounds like the same old song,
But now I'm hearing something new
(Woah)
Although I'm sitting here,
My head's been spinnin' since then
(Spinnin' since then)
I've got a fever & the cure is groovin' with you again
(Wait, what am I saying?)
(La, la, what am I saying?)
(La la, la la)
I'm just wondering if you think you're still down to get down
All the disco lights are on let's boogie on down tonight
(Tonight, tonight, tonight, tonight)
(Let's boogie on down tonight)
I'm just wondering if you think you're still down to get down
(I'm just wondering, baby)
All the disco lights are on let's boogie, I'm down tonight
(Are you down?)
I'm down
(Are you down?)
I'm just wondering if you think you're still down to get down
All the disco lights are on let's boogie on down tonight
(Still down to get down, baby)
(Still down to boogie on down)
I'm just wondering if you think you're still down to get down
(Tell me if you're down)
All the disco lights are on let's boogie on down tonight
(Tell me if you're down)
(Still down, still down, baby)
(Tonight, tonight, tonight, tonight)
(Still down, get down on the boogie boogie)
I'm just wondering if you think you're still down to get down
All the disco lights are on let's boogie on down tonight

Come on, let's move, let's take back the night
(Ooh, the night)
We can't be wrong, we can only be right
(Ooh, in the neon light)
Yes we can
So come on, let's make a little bit of trouble
(Don't be shy)
Don't be shy, let's start it up & don't be subtle
(Ooh, don't be subtle)
Ooh, don't be shy
Ooh, don't be subtle
Aaah

(And the music leads the night,
Party lights shining bright
Nothing to lose)
You let go & free your disco soul
(Step up tonight,
Put down the fight,
Dance until the morning light)
Can't you feel that disco soul?

Dance in the neon lights)
(Discoholic's got your back
You know what to do
(Take back the night, it'll do you right

(Discoholic's got your back
You know what to do)
Heheheh, alright
Let's get started
“C'est la vie”,
But you want more
They call you the sickness,
But you're the cure
They bombed the discos,
But left the soul
Tonight's the night,
We're taking back control
“C'est la vie”,

Touching skin,
Kissing lips,
That's romance,
With a script
Chasing love
That you see on the screen
Can't live in the studio
So we try & dream
It's not what you're thinking of
It's just that movie love
It's not true
It's only what's brand new
(Movie love)
“It's just what I need right now”
Or so you tell yourself
It's not true
It's just the lights on you
I wanna feel it
That movie love
I wanna live it
That movie love
(Craving what we don't know
Shooting for the stars & we're oh so close
But we're never quite there,
Missing love by another light year)
I need to feel it (Ooh, feel it)
That movie love
I need to live it (Ooh, live it)
That movie love
(Craving what we don't know
Shooting for the stars & we're oh so close
But we're never quite there,
Missing love by another light year)
(Ooh, feel it)
(Ooh, live it)
Your love has made me blind,
You're like a spotlight,
All you do is shine,
(This doesn't feel quite right)
I'm so lost in your eyes, (in your eyes)
You've got me so lost,
In your movie lies,
(Is it still worth the cost?)
I know it never lasts,
It's just how we've been cast,
I need you
To not forget my cue
Dancing in the LEDs
You know just what I need,
On this set,
Is this real love yet?
I wanna feel it
That movie love
I wanna live it
Yeah, that movie love
Craving what we don't know
Shooting for the stars & we're oh so close
But we're never quite there,
Missing love by another light year
I need to feel it (Ooh, feel it)
That movie love
I need to live it (Ooh, live it)
Yeah, that movie love
Craving what we don't know
Shooting for the stars & we're oh so close
But we're never quite there,
Missing love by another light year
Drag out the scene,
With take after take after take,
Of the same old plot,
We've lusted & lost before
Drag out the scene,
With take after take after take,
Of the same old plot,
We've lusted & lost before
I wanna feel it
I wanna live it
I need to feel it (Ooh, feel it)
I need to live it (Ooh, live it)
Yeah, that movie love
I wanna feel it
(Craving what we don't know, shooting for the stars & we're oh so close)
I wanna live it
(But we're never quite there, missing love by another light year)
I need to feel it
(Craving what we don't know, shooting for the stars & we're oh so close)

(But we're never quite there, missing love by another light year)

I wanna live it (Ooh, live it)
(Is this still worth the cost?)
I need to feel it (Ooh, feel it)
(This doesn't feel quite right)
I need to live it (Ooh, live it)
Yeah, that movie love

I'm only 10 drinks in
But I forgot to spike my punch
(Not again)
Better bet on the winner
Or I can't afford my lunch
Were you talkin' ‘bout romance?
Thought you were talkin' ‘bout me
Never seen a better dancer
Can she move to the key?
(I can move to the beat
You can't even move your feet!)
Just watch me: 1, 2, 3, 4,
5, 7-- wait--
You're my favorite melodrama
And my most hated comedy
I ought to thank my mama
For teaching me how to breathe
(Thank you very much, mama)
You better make like a tree
Before you turn into a brussels sprout
I know what all of this means
And you don't wanna find out!
Not everything needs a reason
(Not everything needs a reason)
Not everything's made of gold
It's just part of the season
I just hope it's not too cold
Sometimes it's just ‘bout the feeling
Sometimes it's just ‘bout the flow
So let's go
Let's flow
Let's feel that disco
It was nothin' but net,
But I was aiming for the stratosphere
Music always sounds better,
When you can't remember how to hear
Do they keep you up at night?
Those sleepless days in the rain
You may call yourself a fighter
Will you box on champagne?
I can serve up the pain,
You can barely serve chow mein!
Just watch me: 1, 2, 3, 4
I declare a-- wait--
You're crying over spilled milk
When it spoiled in ‘84
We've all been sleeping in silk,
But now we're off to the war
(Drop & give me 54)
You never know what to do,
Until you're handed the lemonade
The stand is closing down soon,
And you forgot to get paid
Not everything needs a reason
Not everything's made of gold
It's just part of the season
I just hope it's not too cold
Sometimes it's just ‘bout the feeling
Sometimes it's just ‘bout the flow
So let's go
Let's flow
Let's feel that disco
Ugh. Man, my throat hurts.

Move it, rock that body

Free it, make it naughty
You can't stop this party
Discadance, all night
(All night)

Move it, rock that body
Discadance has got me
Free it, make it naughty
You can't stop this party
Move it, rock that body
Discadance has got me

I'm so lost in the sauce,
I can't stop grooving.
My wife has left me,
I can't stop spending money on rare disco cuts.
Please help, please!
Plea-
I have a problem: I am a disco fiend,
And I cannot get enough.
I don't know what to do to solve it,
But… I don't know if I really wanna solve it, either.
The addiction I have for disco is unsatiable,
And I don't know what to do!
I need the funk.
I don't really know what the signs of Discoholism are.
I don't know if I need to talk to a doctor about this,
If you know any doctors, help me out.
We've been trying to reach you concenering your car's extended warranty.
Yeah, if you could gimme a call back,
Y'know, I'm really on the edge here.
I'm about to put on the boogie shoes,
Peace.

I liked Desired's self-titled release very much, so had to get "Lovestory" as well, its style feels the closest. Desired must be a fan of the 80ies "Cat's Eye" anime, as tracks 1 and 8 are from its soundtrack.
