# Disco Love

"Disco Love" is a song recorded by British-Irish girl group The Saturdays from their fourth studio album, Living for the Weekend (2013). Written and produced by Icelandic producers StopWaitGo, it was released on 4 October 2013 as the fourth single from the album. The song peaked at number five on the UK Singles Chart with first week sales of 51,690 copies.

## Background and composition

"Disco Love" has a notable disco theme, as do its B-sides "Love Come Down" and "On the Radio", which were originally recorded and released by Evelyn King and Donna Summer respectively. Summer is given recognition and attention in the song's lyrics: "It's never winter when it's Donna Summer all year long". The song also gives notice to The Bee Gees, as well as Britney Spears' 1998 debut single, "...Baby One More Time". The group announced the release of "Disco Love" on 26 July 2013 on their official Facebook account, announcing, "Team Sats! We're having a blast shooting the video for our next single 'Disco Love'! Can't wait for you guys to hear it! #SatsDiscoLove"

## Reception

Robert Copsey of Digital Spy described the single as "light 'n' fluffy electropop so sugary it'll rot your teeth in an instant, while the chorus has the kind of ear-snagging hooks that quickly dig deep." While giving the single four out of five stars, they also compared the single to the group's previous material, citing, "Don't get us wrong, we enjoyed their recent foray into US-friendly pop, but we'll always prefer The Saturdays when they're at their most gaudy and glittery." Sam Lansky from Idolator called the song "a beacon of lighthouse illuminating the darkness of the charts!" He also described it as "instantaneous and propulsive, and exactly the shot of adrenaline that they needed."

## Music video

The accompanying video was filmed in July 2013 around Blackheath Common. It premiered on The Saturdays' Vevo channel at midnight on 25 August 2013.
The video follows The Saturdays as they journey to three years, each a decade apart: 1979, 1989 and 1999 - by dressing up in appropriately themed outfits and performing the track in three different settings: the countryside, a rollerskating rink and a skatepark.

## Live performances and promotion

The group performed the single for the first time on ITV's Stepping Out on 21 September 2013. During the song's release week, the group also performed on Sunday Brunch and Surprise Surprise on 6 October, Daybreak on 7 October and This Morning on 9 October. The following week, in promotion for Living for the Weekend, the group also scheduled as performance at G-A-Y Heaven in London on 12 October and an appearance on The Alan Titchmarsh Show on 16 October. The group also performed the single on The Paul O'Grady Show. Due to her pregnancy, Frankie Sandford was absent from the group's live performances of the single.
