Hi Mr Raymond!!! You are the true Singapore Champion!! I was born in 1979 and loved Disco music when i was in my teens and I still do!! Congratulations for winning that time :) You were awesome!!
The guy from Turkey is my favorite, not just because of his ridiculous dance moves, but also the fact that he looks like Uncle Rico from Napoleon Dynamite.
lol As a Turk I couldn't find anything related about him (Erşan Efrant) when I googled him. Google said did you mean "Erşan Kuneri". Who is very famous Turkish disco king from 70's and owner of "Kay Kay Kulüp". All kidding aside, if you are interested disco music from that era you should search for "Turkish disco folk" on RUclips. Hope you enjoy it :)
Hello, I represented Mauritius in 1980 I was no 19 -Unfortunately I can't see the 1st part of the final in 1980. Can you please post it here .Thanks a lot
@@reelincoln3652 Surinam was pretty good too, but not as good as the Yugoslavia and Denmark ones! Those guys had the best styles that pumped out the nicest flashiest moves and rhythm!
Yugoslavian contestant became famous later, he is considered as one of top pop-stars in Yugoslavia/Serbia in 90s, he only got famous by his stage name - Djogani Fantastico.
3:27 "Wow! Well, ladies and gentlemen, the world's top Disco dancers. But sadly that's the last time they'll be seen together [because we're going to kill them]." (joke)
omg really !? miss pants where r u from ? His last name is MORENO! His latino he haves native blood ...Anyways back then that was an outfit famous cuz of the village people and he also used the army outfit thats more Than clear that was his concept
Amcam dünyayı kurtarmaya calisiyor fakirler icin ugrasip duruyor, hayatini insanlığa dadadi. çok yüksek bir mevkide danismanlik yapıyor. Yani president denilen sag kolu.
Ersan hope you are well my uncle was very good friends with yours his name is Sunil Sharma They lost contact when he went back to turkey and would love to get back in contact with him.I'm his nephew and have been trying on his behalf It would be great if you could help as he doesn't stop talking about him Thanks Bobby
Please send my uncle regards to him and in fact he still talks about Sunil as his Brother. Only thing he regrets not seen him before left UK he is in Asia working for poor children and developing them to be something. he was actually in ladakh over 4 years in monastery to help free hearted person you can send me your email address or your Uncle Sunil i will pass on to him staight away.
G'day vinglish,, I HAD that show (as i do all the other) however it was accidentally erased and I've been trying to find a copy of the UK and world finals for that year too... What whas you name and what country did you represent?? cheers
أتساءل عما إذا كان لديه رخصة قيادة كاملة في المملكة المتحدة ، والفائز الفعلي للمركبة ربما كان لديه رخصة قيادة مؤقتة من المملكة المتحدة في لندن على الأرجح البطة والغوص والمراوغة من الشرطة في لندن.
hi there Jean Anamah, yes - you were dressed in a lovely white outfit and matching white shoes? (I was in the crowd at the Empire ballroom) ...great show...feels like yesterday) I 'll look it out for you hope you'r well john
can anyone tell me what happened to michael moreno? i have googled and googled and cant find anything about him after this show.............thank you .......
Bob, I get emailsfrom dancers over he years (I put the shows up on Y/T)...I've not heard of read anything about Michael. If do, I'll be sure to write!....best
Мне интересно, были ли у него полные водительские права в Великобритании, фактический победитель автомобиля, может быть, у него были временные водительские права Великобритании в Лондоне, скорее всего, нырял и уклонялся от полиции в Лондоне, лол
I am wondering if he had a full driving licence in the UK the actual winner of the vehicle maybe he had a provisional driving licence of UK in London most likely duck and diving and dodging the police in London lol
Yeah, Ahmed Sharif is Emirati. He looks almost exactly like a late Emirati artist named Hassan Sharif (check the photos on the guy's wiki page) so they were probably brothers or cousins. Plus the United Arab Republic had already been dissolved by these days so, had he been Egyptian, he would've competed under the Egyptian flag. (And years later, there WAS an Egyptian dancer that participated in these Disco Dancing Competition. Can't remember which year, tho.)
Hi, my name is Raymond Chong. I represented Singapore in 1980. Can I have a full show DVD please? Thanks
I hope you manage to find it! You might be able to contact the BBC for an archived copy?
Hi Mr Raymond!!! You are the true Singapore Champion!! I was born in 1979 and loved Disco music when i was in my teens and I still do!! Congratulations for winning that time :) You were awesome!!
I hope so...LOL
Hi Raymond, I can arrange a copy for you from the video tape....I was there too...(in the crowd)...cheers DiscoReview (John)

He was amazing!

yes I actually thought the guy from Turkey was very good with personality and character and very good dance performance
Totally agree

My man Ahmed Sharif was ROBBED😤😤😤 He should’ve won🇦🇪🇦🇪🇦🇪
Agree.... what's the update on Ahmed.
How can I get a copy of this competition. I stay 5 blocks away from the champion, Godfrey Raseroka's house. By the way, he is still alive and well.
Email disco.review@gmail.com and hopefully they'll get back to you
Okay Yugoslavia rocked it at the entrance, followed by Denmark Germany and coked up Italy. USA you disappointed me.
do you know the beginning song name?
Kako Dzole igra sunce ti ljubim! Brzi je od zvuka!
Legenda yugoslavijaaaa pionir break danca i disco plesova
Đole majstor dens đuskanja bre! Bravo! Bravo Đole naš! Đole bio na svetskom takmičenju, svaka čast!
South Africa 1980 a black man wins LOVE
2:59 Hamit (Đole) Đogani #yugoslavia ☺☺☺💪💪💪💪
ham't TURK
Yugoslavia broke out.Lebanon in war. Sarinam seldom heard of, but i know it next to Brazil.
What??? Yugoslavia should have been first place and Denmark second! Those guys had the coolest, baddest moves, man!
Greece or Surinam were best
@@reelincoln3652
Surinam was pretty good too, but not as good as the Yugoslavia and Denmark ones! Those guys had the best styles that pumped out the nicest flashiest moves and rhythm!
I agree Yugoslavia.

30.صدناه 😂😂
ههههههه انا جلست ادوره بعد
#23 Puerto Rico should've won. He did a perfect "Re-run" from the show "What's Happening".
I do not understand why everyone else is in 80’s fashion and US is in a boring uniform
Omg nooooo he did not! I did not see the headdress because I spoke too soon 😂 that’s just awful
wlasta tonkovic is from yugoslavia
Host: Godfrey, how do you feel?
Godfrey: I am so happy, I’m...
Host: aaah, he’s so happy he can’t speak.
😂
Yes that was funny.
Ahmed Sharif from U.AE 😳😂 2:08
🇦🇪🇦🇪🇦🇪🇦🇪🇦🇪
He snapped
هذي يديدة
اول مرة اعرف انه مواطن اماراتي و اشترك بالمسابقة
he was smooth~
@interstellar شكراً على الدعم اخوي بس متأخر ٤٠ سنة😂😂😂😂😂
No Satin pants were harmed in the making of this video.
Puerto Rico have very good moves 😍
Godfrey Raseroka South Africa yes
الإماراتي وش جابه ههههههههههه
faleh m صح والله 😂😅😅
اماراتي 😲😲😲
التركي فنان
Djogani vas ceka kod kolima
hahahaha brat
jugoslavija ajmo našiii
Portugal was my favorite one.
彼が英国で完全な運転免許証を持っていたかどうか疑問に思っています。実際の車両の勝者は、ロンドンで英国の暫定運転免許証を持っていた可能性があります。
میں حیران ہوں کہ آیا اس کے پاس برطانیہ میں گاڑی کا مکمل فراھم کرنے والا لائسنس موجود تھا۔ شاید اس کے پاس لندن میں یوکے کا عارضی ڈرائیونگ لائسنس تھا۔
Yugoslavia and Malta were amazing 🔥
Yugoslavian contestant became famous later, he is considered as one of top pop-stars in Yugoslavia/Serbia in 90s, he only got famous by his stage name - Djogani Fantastico.
Does anyone know anything about Ahmed Sharif?? :)
SA2blue apparently he's the late artist Hassan Sharif's brother.

Surinam KILLED IT
is Ahmed Sharif Emirati or Egyptian?
Malasia should have taken first place then USA and 3rd to Singapore.
Wow that was brief. They got about 10 seconds each!
My favourite version of ‘check out the groove’ by Bobby Thurston
Mines too. It’s so cute. The original is good too
My dad had this beautiful tape, it's still there
Michael Moreno's (U.S) my other favourite.
wait, where's the competition?!
This was in London I think
Get down! Can you dig it?
Dude and what the fuck happend with colombia???
Anyone know the songs featured?
Why was the American wearing a military uniform? Was it some sort of pro/anti war message?
It's a custom military uniform from WWII.
omg michael moreno usa
I keep thinking this is a parody !! 😂😂 haha I can't ! This is to funny !!
I am surprised Key and Peele haven't done a parody of this.
Oh you are just sooo cool aren’t you?
hi everyone i think in that year 1980 all the contestants will great .i like usa,uk and malaysia the best
Puerto Rico the goat 🤌
So many nations having fun :)
what about Arnold person? :54
Wow... awesome... love that u won...
Jean killed it for the UK! 🇬🇧
Pretty sure the name Jorge is prononced "Haw-hay".
The Portugese version is different

DžoLe DžoganjaJ zvani Djogani al mi daje !!! 😁🤣🤣 svaka čast ! Na 2:55min
Puerto Rico LOOOOOOL
They have to just dance in the intro a little bit and they are judged by that. Then Yugoslavia and Italy had funky moves.
علشانه عربي مسلم
Don't know how the dude from South Africa won
Suriname had my vote! Raymond Chong of Singapore rocked too.
