I think Your Disco Needs You is brilliant but far to camp for an international release. You can see why it wasn't released easily. On a mainstream level it wont work.

My good friend, Johnny Douglas, who wrote this song told me how 'Disco Down' was originally a demo called 'Burn This Disco' and it was Kylie's talk of 'Getting down at the disco' that evolved the title and then became a song which was lyrically very personal to Johnny about a personal event in his life and the notion of someone leaving and 'burning the disco down', so to speak.

 

He said some people at Mushroom loved the song and pushed for it to be a single but it never came to be.

they should have pushed more as it would have been great single material and jonny was very right to push it for a single release

kids in one form was taken as a robbie single more than a kylie single but i think a fifth single or a 4th solo kylie single would have worked with the light years album,there was enough strong tracks to choose from

 

please stay as we said before did well taken into account the type of song it was released in the christmas market,the next single would have easily made top 10 say 7-8 weeks later when the christmas stuff flys out of the chart and it would have gained sales for light years on the back of it

 

or even better if they wanted to milk the album altogether they could have opted for a double a side with disco down and butterfly now in my head that would have been what i would class as a belter of a kylie single and i would like to think would have charted very well

 

i just adore the light years album in full and spinning around would be the track i like least on the album even though i love it i do feel light years could have been given a little more of a push as it is a pop masterpiece and i couldnt have asked for a better return than i got with album
