Disco songs

TOP TEN DISCO SONGS (1975 to 1980):

The disco movement had occupied a considerable period of our adolescent life. Disco was not merely about a distinctive style of music, it also came together with a recognisable fashion idiosyncrasies. The afro hairdo, platform shoes, and tight fitting shirts with oversized collars . The film that best capture the image of this era was probably the musical hit called Saturday Night Fever, starring the young John Travolta. But as the seventies wound down, so did Disco. By the early eighties Disco was no longer fashionable as the youngsters ushered in the era of punk rock and the 'new wave'. For whatever it's worth, here are some of the disco tunes we were familiar with:

10. Play that funky music (Wild Cherry)

9. That's the way (I like it) [KC and the Sunshine Band]

8. Ring My Bell (Anita Ward)

7. Rasputin (Boney M)

6. Last Dance (Donna Summer)

5. Dont stop till you get enough (Michael Jackson)

4. Funkytown (Lipps Inc)

3. Le Freak (Chic)

2. Boogie Wonderland (Earth, Wind and Fire)

1. Stayin' Alive (Bee Gees)

Honourable Mention:

Too many tunes to list here, from so many artists of the late seventies, like Barry Manilow with his song called Copacabana, the Bee Gees, Earth wind and fire, Chic, Boney M, Peaches&Herbs and many more.

Pesan dari sahabatku Ramlan

EMPAT PERKARA SEBELUM TIDUR WALAU SESIBUK MANAPUN DENGAN TUGAS HARIAN

Rasulullah berpesan kepada siti Aisyah ra.

“ Ya, Aisyah! Jangan engkau tidur sebelum melakukan empat perkara yaitu :

1. Sebelum khatam al-Quran.

2. Sebelum menjadikan para nabi bersyafaat untukmu di hari kiamat.

3. Sebelum para muslimin meredhai engkau.

4. Sebelum engkau melaksanakan haji dan umrah".

Bertanya Siti Aisyah :
“Ya Rasulullah ! bagaimana aku dapat melaksanakan empat perkara seketika? “

Rasulullah tersenyum dan bersabda :

1. “Jika engkau akan tidur,bacalah surah al –Ikhlas tiga kali
Seakan-akan engkau telah meng-khatamkan Al-Quran

” Bismillaahirrahmaa nirrahiim,
‘Qul huallaahu ahad’ Allaah hussamad’
lam yalid walam yuulad’
walam yakul lahuu kufuwan ahad’ ( 3x ) “

2. "Bacalah shalawat untukku dan untuk para nabi sebelum aku" maka kami semua akan memberimu syafaat di hari kiamat
“ Bismillaahirrahmaa nirrrahiim, Allaahumma shallii ‘alaa saiyyidina Muhammad wa’alaa aalii saiyyidina Muhammad ( 3x ) “

3. “Beristighfarlah” untuk para mukminin maka mereka akan meredhai engkau

“ Astaghfirullaah hal 'adziim al lazhii laa ilaaha illaa huwal hayyul qayyuum wa atuubu ilaih ( 3x )

4. Dan perbanyaklah “bertasbih, bertahmid , bertahlil dan bertakbir” maka seakan-akan engkau telah melaksanakan ibadah haji dan umrah

“ Bismillaahirrahmaa nirrrahiim
Subhanallaah Walhamdulillaah Walaa ilaaha illallaah hu wallah hu akbar "
( 3x )

Sampaikanlah kepada orang lain,
maka ini akan menjadi sedaqah jariah pada setiap orang yang anda kirimkan pesan ini, dan apabila kemudian dia mengamalkannya, maka kamu juga akan ikut mendapat pahalanya sampaihari kiamat.... آمِيّنْ..

MOST CELEBRATED SONGS IN THE DORMITORIES OF SMSS (Block A & B) FROM 1978 TO 1982:

First of all, I do not know what music  the girls listened to in Block C. I've never been there ... honest ... really ... I do not know. (Why am I saying this twice?)

Maybe the girls followed regulations and never boomed away with their cassette players.  I don't even know whether they kept cassette players in their dormitories back then.

This is the reason why I confine myself to Blocks A and B only. All right, block D too. But kids rarely go there. There was an apparent age gap between block d inhabitants and the rest. They appeared very "adultish" and looked too serious and boring. Unlike blocks A and B which were joined at every level by a common walk-ways and staircases, bloc d was isolated, on its own. As a consequence, block d was, to the most part of my experience, quite insignificant.

Blocks A and B are a different story. Cassette players aplenty. It was common to hear sounds from the cassette players deafening at full volume as you walk the corridors of these blocs.

Between 1978 and 1982 many great songs have bounced off the walls of these two blocks. I list bellow what I personally feel as the most popular songs in those blocks:

10. All Out Of Love (Air Supply)

9. Widuri (Broery Marantika)

8. Kenangan Lalu (Flybaits)

7. Geram (Black Dog Bone)

6.  Aku Penganggur (Sudirman)

5. Hati Emas (Kembara)

4. Kamelia (Sweet Charity)

3. Apo Nak Dikato (Blues Gang)

2. Rindu Bayangan (Carefree)

1. Hingga Akhir Nanti (Alleycats)

Honourable mention:

Andainya Aku Pergi Dulu (Alleycats), Sejuta Wajah (Sweet Charity), Belaian Jiwa (Carefree), Khayalan, Si Gadis Ayu and Relax (Black Dog Bone).
