This is as close as I can get to disco. Back in the day, this song would play for 20 plus minutes straight. People would be on the dance floor sweating a river while getting their boogy on.

"Do you wanna get funky with me"

Great song. I especially like how the 12" ends.
I always had a hard time dancing to it though.

Here's a slightly different style disco. It's Maxine Nightingale's catchy tune, Right back where we started from

Another quintessential disco song from another queen of disco. Sylvester - you make me feel (mighty real)
Here's a song with at least a half dozen versions. Quite honestly, I have no idea which was the original. And when you're at the disco, any dj who is a dj mixes it every which way.
Enjoy :)

I've got about 5 favorite, what I consider quintessential disco songs. Among was the recently mentioned Cococmotion and You Make Me Feel (Mighty Real).
Another is Donna Summer, Macarthur Park. Below is the entire 17 minute suite. Classic. My daughter loves how Donna goes, ahhh-a-haaa like at the 1:49 mark. :D

That's because you lack the natural rhythm us blacks enjoy.

A lesser known song by those outside the disco period, but another song I highly rate is "Dance With You." Really nice bass line with this one matched by Carrie Lucas' singing.

Well, we'll have a tie for several #5 songs.
I'd be plain stupid to ignore Chic.
Fall '78, still young dumb, and fulla cum. Freshman at Northeastern University in Boston. Freak Out was just released and the discos played that song to the hilt. I liked it. Among their many gems, I really liked Everybody Dance a whole lot. That bass. That string section. Classic Chic.
