Music List A Month (January): Greatest Disco Songs

Disco rose and fell in dramatic fashion.  But it never went away.  It just got rebranded as Dance music by those too afraid to utter the word "disco" among their friends. Even after it so-called demise, it remains an influential genre. I first did this list in 2013 as a voter in a music poll on the best Disco songs.  I'm still pretty pleased how it turned out, so I didn't make many tweaks.
