[I expected better lyrics for this song.]

The only translation I can find has a good line in the second verse:

Even if surely cant come true
Ill prefer to erase everything

A song from the perspective of an omnicidal villain that's going to delete existence itself would be nice. The rest of the song doesn't live up to that and I don't think the singer or band could deliver on such a song even if they wanted to, but the images that verse conjure up make the song worthy of at least a slightly above average score.

(4, 1, 4 [later upgraded to a 5; then further upgraded to a 6 after the rankings started])

[The comments are right, this does feel a lot like "Get Down on It", to a point that this feels very familiar even though I've never heard it before. It's not bad, but not great either.]

Of course I had to use rave.dj to combine the two songs:

https://rave.dj/EZkHq1rb3M9GNg

It actually kinda works. At times. Occasionally.

Anyway, this does just feel like a synthesizer remix of a song I've heard a thousand times, which is kinda interesting? But not quite interesting enough, I suppose. The song is trapped in an odd "too new for a nostalgia boost, too familiar to count as a new experience" void.

[Final Thoughts: This is one of the first songs that was moved up the list after the topic started. It was in 248th Place, but that was obviously way too low and the song held on for quite a way before dropping.

While I do enjoy this song and the fact that it feels like a very computerized take on a 70s classic, for the first time ever, I think I prefer my rave.dj mash-up over either of the actual songs used on it. The trippy video and addition of lyrics improve on Disco, whereas the computerization improves "Get Down on It". I'm not going to say the resulting combination is perfect or anything, but it's something I've gone back to listen to for fun a few times already--more than can be said about any of my other attempts to mess with that site.]
