      Disco music was probably the last best music ever made. Everything else that came after disco music cannot hold a candle to this soul-stimulating music.

    If Beethoven came back to life today, and heard this.....he'd say it was badass. 😁👍

      He'd probably be thrilled to hear anything. Beethoven was losing his hearing when he composed "The Fifth" and went almost completely deaf six years later. If you bring him back, make sure to get him a hearing aid. :)

    I had a friend whose mother taught music. She thought this song was terrible and sacrilegious. But, it did do what Walter Murphy said it would. To us grade school kids who were obsessed with the music on the radio, this track gave classical music some street cred with us. We didn't know anything about Bach or Mahler, but we sure as shit knew the Fifth of Beethoven.

    • @jacquelineiona1996
