Tony, the song itself sounds so 70ish that I don't think the younger set would go for it either. It's not a song that would make me, or any of my audiences jump out of their chairs and onto a dance floor. I'm with you on this aspect, I can't think of an audience that it would appeal to. Maybe I'm wrong, though - Carol tells me that a lot.  Gary

Gary Gary ...you can't think of one of OUR audiences it would appeal to but DAFT PUNK, the performers of the song, took home record of the Year and Pop/Duo Group Performance for "Get Lucky", so obviously there IS an audience for it ...  They are Millionaires many times over Daft Punk, then when the fever subsides a year from now they will just kick back and produce other new groups reaping the royalties also from their millions & on & on,.......it's an endless cycle.. at least now & in the future after we're gone Latin Music will ALWAYS hold the course,...50 yrs from now a Cha Cha, Salsa, Merengue, etc,.. will be just that Thank goodness....

Donny, they could flat-assed broke and no one would know - including you and I. There are lots of famous people out there that don't have a pot to piss in or a window to throw it out of. They live high on the hog, throw lavish parties, drive fancy cars, and in many, many instances, spend way more than they have coming in. There are lots of sports celebs that made millions upon millions, and then die with only the shirt on their back and a mountain of debt. You are correct, though, about 50 years from now Latin will be Latin, Celtic will be Celtic, etc.. And, 50 years from now, when we're both dead and buried, they'll still be playing Auld Lang Syne on NYE using a big band.  Gary
