The Saturdays' 'Disco Love': Some Spotify playlists

  • August 19, 2013
  • Popjustice

Disco-Love-legs

Spoiler alert — you'll want to listen to the new Saturdays single 'Disco Love' before you read this, because the song ref­er­ences other popstars and pop singles we don't want to ruin the surprise. (Particularly the one at the end of the second verse, which comes courtesy of Mollie and is therefore a COMPLETE TRIUMPH.)

Once you've listened, we can continue.

Firstly here is a little Spotify playlist of stuff mentioned in the song.

PROBLEM: Obviously no specific Donna Summer song is mentioned by name, which isn't great in terms of the Spotify playlist.

SOLUTION: Create a "Donna Summer all year long" Spotify playlist.

PROBLEM: Well we tried to do this. We cal­cu­lated that it would need to contain about 105,120 tracks to really last all year long. Unfortunately those fuckers at Spotify have a 10,000-song limit on playlists.

SOLUTION: Listen to this one playlist ten and a bit times.

(The embedded player sadly only lists the first 200 songs, you'll have to open it in Spotify for the full experience.)

And once you've listened to that, we've also expanded the first playlist to include every song ref­er­enced or sort-of-ref­er­enced in 'Disco Love'.

If we've missed any, let us know in the comments.
