We’re on Day Nine of the Mellowmas Craptacular – are you still with us? Jeff picked quite a few of the tracks for Mellowmas, but I’m proud to say I foisted yesterday’s Fogelberg upon him…and this one, too! (You’re welcome.)

Jeff: Oh Jesus.
Jason: YES!!!!
Jeff: What is this? Is this Meco?
Jason: HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA! Disco Mellowmas, Bitch!
Jeff: Wow.
Jason: Doo doo do doo! And it goes on like this FOR ANOTHER THREE MINUTES.
Jeff: I’m stunned.
Jason: does happy dance Doo doo do doo! There’s the piano!
Jeff: Where did you find this? And can you put it back?
Jason: I can’t quite remember. I found it recently. I was looking for a supposed classic disco Christmas album. This is not that album.
Jeff: I feel like I’m watching the beginning of a CBS holiday special from 1979.
Jason: Oh, hang on, breaking it down. Break it down, Jeff!
Jeff: Breaking it down all right.
Jason: Are you boogie-ing? Feel the boogie!
Jeff: That isn’t boogie I feel. God, this song is like twelve minutes long…
Jason: So anyway, yeah, I couldn’t find the actual disco album in question, and somehow came across this one. And the worst part is that it’s not REALLY disco. It’s like imitation disco. It’s like store-brand disco. I think if it were true disco, it probably would be tolerable in a so-bad-it’s-good kind of way.
Jeff: Those horns are making me die. And that piano can go to hell.
Jason: resumes happy dance
Jeff: Flutes!
Jason: FIVE GOLDEN CHAINS!
Jeff: Three bitchin’ Ludes! Two lines of coke!
Jason: One wah-wah pedal!
Jeff: And a white linen suit in a pear tree!
Jason: Clap! Clap! Clap! Are you dancing in your seat? Because I’m dancing in my seat!
Jeff: Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah
Jason: Oh, finally, we get some true disco bass. Doo doo do doo! Hahahah! Fade out! What a fucking cop-out!
Jeff: An abrupt fadeout, too! I tell you what, though. This is better than the Fogelberg.
Jason: You think? If only we could somehow combine the two.
Jason: Acoustic Irish holiday disco. You know what the abrupt fadeout means?
Jeff: I wonder if someone had a heart attack, so they had to fade it out sooner than they’d planned.
Jason: Exactly! Either that or they just passed out.
Jeff: Dear God. A Bolivian Christmas.
Jason: God can’t help you here.
Jeff: You can eat shit for sending this to me.
Jason: I’ve never been happier than I am right now.
