Disco will never be over

"Disco will never be over. It will always live in our minds and hearts. Something like this, that was this big, and this important and this great, will never die. Oh, for a few years – maybe many years – it'll be considered passé and ridiculous. It will be misrepresented and caricatured and sneered at, or worse, completely ignored. People will laugh about John Travolta, Olivia Newton-John, white polyester suits and platform shoes and people going like this… But we had nothing to do with those things and still loved disco. Those who didn't understand will never understand: disco was much more and much better than all that. Disco was too great and too much fun to be gone for ever. It's got to come back someday. I just hope it will be in our own lifetimes"

Since it’s already well said, I won’t attempt to embellish.

from the film "The last days of disco" (1998) by Whit Stillman 
(can't say I loved the movie, but I surely enjoyed the ost)
