DISCO-LYMPICS

that's the way, uh huh uh huh
I caught a bit of the Torino Games Opening Ceremony last night, including the first half of the Parade of Nations.

What was with the choice of American disco songs for the athletes’ march? They seemingly played all the standards: Donna Summer, KC and the Sunshine Band, even pre-”Thriller” Michael Jackson. I love disco, but it seemed an odd choice for the occasion. Was this the 2006 Olympics, or the 1976 Games?
