Bumblebee Unlimited – Lady Bug

Simply wonderful, engaging rhythm, you never get tired of hearing it, which gives you credit for being one of the best worldwide disco songs

Of all the songs that Bumblebee Unlimited did and of all the songs that were done by any of the of the band under their many aliuses and names, this is the one that takes the cake. This song has every single thing that is required to be a masterpiece. First and foremost, I would recommend the Larry Levan Remix, but the original is also very fine. OK, so what we have here is a massive disco beat for close to 10 minutes that never stops until the very end. Throughout the song, there is a latin piano keynote going off in the background. In the gist of things, you have a male and female singing and talking to each other with chipmunky, vocoder styled voices. The conversation is funny, naughty, dirty, sexy, and amazing. They talk about all the stuff that matters in life: breast size, alcohol and booze, guns, and sex. Oh, and let me not forget my favorite line of all time: "Do you fly fast?" "Ha ha ha, yeah!" "Is that a Rolls Royce?" "No, it's a Mercedes, bee." This is my favorite authentic disco song of all time and it puts to shame most of the music that the world population actually classifies as disco music. You're in my heart Bumblebee Unlimited for this one! I play it on my radio show regularly alongside italo disco and minimal wave. It's just the perfect song.
