"Your Disco Needs You" әні: Дисконың күші туралы

2001 single by Kylie Minogue

"Your Disco Needs You" is a song by Australian singer and songwriter Kylie Minogue, taken from her seventh studio album Light Years (2000). The song was written by Minogue, Guy Chambers and Robbie Williams and produced by Chambers and Steve Power. Lyrically, "Your Disco Needs You" talks about the power of disco music. The song peaked inside the top forty in Australia, Switzerland and Germany. Hugely popular as an album track, it was never released as a single in the United Kingdom because the song was considered "too gay" and "too camp", but charted at number 152 on the basis of import sales. Minogue has also performed the song on most of her 2000 and onward tours, including On a Night Like This Tour, Showgirl: The Greatest Hits Tour, KylieX2008, For You, For Me Tour, Kiss Me Once Tour, and most recently on her Kylie Summer 2015 Tour.

The lack of a single release for the track in the United Kingdom caused controversy among fans there, sparking protests outside her UK record company lobbying for this to happen. When considering the fourth single to be released from Light Years, Minogue's record label chose the Latin sounding "Please Stay" instead of "Your Disco Needs You", due to the song's campness and to avoid Minogue being further stereotyped, although remixers Almighty had remixed the song and this version appeared on the UK CD single of "On a Night Like This". Heather Phares from AllMusic described the "German Almighty Radio Edit" song as a "Four on the floor beat" and said that "Your Disco Needs You" was a surprisingly good "dance oriented song". NME compared the song to the Pet Shop Boys' "Go West".

"Your Disco Needs You" received critical acclaim from most music critics. Heather Phares from AllMusic gave the song a separate review, while giving it 3/5 stars. She described "Your Disco Needs You" as “glittery charm as well as a fun hidden song that's arguably more enjoyable than the title track.” Nick Levine from Digital Spy said if the song "doesn't put a smile on your face you need a new shrink". The song appeared on a compilation titled Rainbow Love Boat, which was reviewed by AllMusic, with Bradley Torreano writing that songs like "Your Disco Needs You" are “genuinely fun, exciting songs that may not be lyrical triumphs, but that fact is of little importance in the genre.”
