Demis Roussos - I Dig You

Hard not to dig that outfit, anyways.
You know those Disco songs in which the singer acts as a slick man with a high libido, trying to attract a woman with his words and witty pickup lines? This is one of them, or at least it was meant to be. But Demis Roussos was not gonna settle for that, normally a guy from Greece whose music is not my cup of coffee, he did catch the disco fever during the 70s and has a very popular song called "L.O.V.E. Got A Hold On Me" which received some attention in the U.S.

This one being a rather rare treat, Mr. Roussos goes Teddy Pendergrass in this one and scares the shit out of that woman with his flirtatious lyrics and aggressive vocals, while possibly getting to impress her. How about them Arabic music tinged strings on the chorus, that bassline, and those synths? Totally a unique mix of them components I have mentioned and a classic Disco song that has "win" written all over it. Go ahead and click the play button, cause you'll be digging the-eee-eee-eee-eee-ees song.
