17 07 08 169 W - + 37 - 32 Billie Jean Is The Top Dance Record

Michael Jackson’s 1983 hit, ‘Billie Jean’ is the best ever dance record - according to listeners to BBC Radio 2. I don’t want to be controversial here, but I must say that I can’t figure out how the heck Billie Jean won out over Donna Summer’s 1977 disco classic, ‘I Feel Love’, which came in at number 2.

OK, so I Feel Love may be a ‘70s song but, in my view, it really set the trends for the ‘80s by blending a hard core synth track (which had hitherto been the province of techno bands such as Kraftwerk) with crooning disco vocals (which had previously normally been sunk to a funk band or orchestral backing). In fact, ‘I Feel Love’ was not only the greatest disco song ever but was also one of the most influential pop songs. So, while Jackson may have won the vote, I am going to play Donna Summer’s wonderful I Feel love...

Donna Summer’s new album, “Crayons”, sounds awesome! Check out “Stamp Your Feet”.

Great song. Michael Jackson’s Thriller is a fantastic album. His all-time best. I heard he wanted to remake it, but he will never be able to re-capture the feel again.

I can see why Billie Jean is the Best Dance Record Ever. It’s fantastic!! As Boston Wedding DJ, I rarely play a wedding where that song doesn’t make the playlist. I love Donna Summer but her songs rarely make my set lists.
