I was just a wee child of 12 when the movie, "Thank God It's Friday" came out, but I remember it like it was yesterday. A comedic homage to the age of Disco, it's message was hopeful and at times inspiring.
Since today is the "last dance" of the week and of the summer like weather, I previewed this video of the great disco queen, Donna Summer singing her monster hit, "Last Dance" from the movie and I will admit to getting a few goosebumps.
Enjoy the "last dance" of the week with one of the disco era's greats and remember a kinder, simpler time.
Have a great weekend bloggers!
Thank God it’s Friday indeed. Did I mention how much I miss the great food and casual atmosphere of TGIF? That was a great video/great song, and it brought out a goosey on me too. I hope you have an amazing weekend!
ReplyDeleteDonna was a hottie and a half.
ReplyDeleteDeesco? Eh, not so much. Forgive me. lol
Candy,
ReplyDeleteThis song is my mantra EVERY day, honey!
She sang at my Church's festival 2 years ago. Nice lady.
ReplyDeleteEarly JEff Goldblum.
ReplyDeleteNice!
I must have danced to this song 100 times in the day. Thanks for making my Friday.
ReplyDeleteholy crap i remember that movie too! so bad it was good...
ReplyDeleteI remember the duet with her and Barbara Streisand. All the hype churned up with the meeting of the two huge Divas, and they talked about shoes the whole time.
ReplyDeleteI loved that song.. I don't remember the movie, though. I also liked "on the radio". Actually, I liked all her stuff. Donna was the queen back in the day, for sure.
ReplyDeleteMy roommates and I are having an '80s party this weekend. I can't deal with the '70s right now. :)
ReplyDeleteMan, where's my designer jeans and terry-cloth shirt?
ReplyDeleteGotta loooooove some Donna Summer! Too bad there's not a Donna Autumn, Donna Winter and Donna Spring.
ReplyDeleteBut then there's Ma-donna...the mutha of all seasons.
Not ashamed to say I got down and funky when listening to that song.
ReplyDeleteNot ashamed at all! Thanks for the impromptu workout music ;)
Disco Duck. Hope you are having a great weekend.
ReplyDeleteLast Dance makes me wish I was at Studio 54.
ReplyDeleteHi Candy,
ReplyDeleteFor some reason your blog has gotten stuck for me 2 or 3 times. I have you on my favorites bar and when I go to you it stays on the same post. I’ve tried going in through google to the same result. I’ve tried cleaning out my cookies but still…..Then a couple days later, I’ll see that I missed a bunch of your posts. One time it happened for over a week. I don’t know if it is something that ‘Blogger’ can fix or not. I don’t know it it’s just me or not. Do you ever notice a sharp decline in comments? Anyway I wanted to let you know and was wondering if it was happening again? Sorry to bother you with this, if you just haven’t posted since Friday.
Scott
