My blog was a university blog. Now that I am moving from Italy to Australia, it will be my secret place to keep in touch with people I love!

STUDIO 54



After having surfed the blogsphere during the last two weeks I've started appreciating this innovative communicative tool. Blogs can eihter be personal or about some precise topic, nobody can tell you what to write.
A blog is your space in the online world.
What I consider amazing is the fact that everybody can come to your blog and leave a message writing his/her opinions about it.
I'm going to add some photos and links in order to relate my space with what is out there , so people won't get bored just by my personal thoughts.
I think that surfing the blogsphere is very useful for students because they can come across colloquial English. In fact knowing grammar perfectly won't be enough when you are trying to communicate with foreign people.
So I hope that many of you are going to leave a comment or a message and I'll be glad to answer!
Feel free to write me anything you want (but don't forget about the blogging etiquette!)
Enjoy your trip into my music!!


Honestly I'm feeling rather sad these days but I don't want to start my blog with something depressing because I don't want everybody to run away from it. That's why I chose to talk to you about my favourite music: DISCO MUSIC FROM THE 1970s.
That's why I'd like to write something about a disco, which can be probably considered the temple of this kind of music. Its name is STUDIO 54. It was located in New York and became the most important place for all those who wanted to enjoy real fun!


STUDIO 54 was said to be the disco everybody talked about!

I hope that you have already heard something about it but if you haven't, click immediately on the following link. You are going to find everything about its history and what used to happen there.

I've always loved disco music and when I first watched the movie about this place I literally got crazy! The movie, starring Neve Campbell, is called exactly STUDIO 54. it deals with the life of a young and beautiful boy who leaves his hometown in order to make a fortune in NY. He starts working in that disco and what happens to him is something amazing, unbelievable and sometimes a little too odd. I think that you'll appreciate this movie just if you are as crazy as I am.
Two months ago I succeded in getting the STUDIO 54 SOUNDTRACK. If you like disco music it will drive you crazy. It contains some of the most popular songs of that period and many fantastic others. Here you are some of the titles:

    1. You make me feel
    2. Dance Dance Dance
    3. Don't Leave Me This Way
    4. Fly Robin Fly

and many others..



What is really incredible is that I've just received an invitation to a STUDIO 54 party on Friday night. Do you believe it???

I hope I have been able to arouse your curiosity with this post.
Go to the site, read the information and the interviews. Then listen to the songs and you'll be rushed into the 1970s!

By the way I hope that my personal situation is going to improve otherwise I think that the next time I'll write here won't be as funny as today.
So wish me good luck!
Hugs!

Dear Alida, good idea that of sharing with us (and the rest of the world!) your passion for music! It is a nice way to make your blog very personal and curious for us (me) who don’t know Studio 54 yet! I’m not very fond in disco music, but your blog could be a nice space to discover something interisting about this almost unknown world!
See you soon!

Dear Alica,

I couldn't resist. I love 70s music too- it's the only music I really, really enjoy dancing too. The few times I manage to go out I make sure that's what's on and when I can't go out my boys and I dance around the living room to disco fever.

Thanks for the tip on the website and I'll have to see the movie.
