"Disco 2000" is a hit single by British band Pulp, released in 1995. It reached No. 7 in the UK Singles Chart. It was the third single from the album Different Class, following "Common People" and the double A-side "Mis-Shapes"/"Sorted for E's & Wizz", both of which reached No. 2.
The song tells the story of a narrator falling for a childhood friend called Deborah, who is more popular than he is and wondering what it would be like to meet again when they are older. The song is based on true events. Pulp frontman Jarvis Cocker said "the only bit that isn't true is the woodchip wallpaper."
Deborah was based on a real life childhood friend of Cocker's, Deborah Bone, who moved away from Sheffield to Letchworth when she was 10. As the lyrics suggest, she did marry and have children.
It is believed that the fountain referred to as the meeting place was Goodwin Fountain, formerly located on Fargate, in Sheffield city centre. The song's riff is said to be influenced by Laura Branigan's 1980s hit "Gloria".
"D.I.S.C.O." is a song by the French band Ottawan, written and produced by Daniel Vangarde and Jean Kluger. It was originally recorded by Ottawan in French.
It was first recorded in 1979 and reached number two in the UK Singles Chart the following year.
The song's name comes from the lyrics in its chorus, in which a woman is claimed to be 'DISCO', with each letter of the word standing for a certain quality, except O which simply leads to singing 'oh-oh-oh' ("She is D, delirious / She is I, incredible / She is S, superficial / She is C, complicated / She is oh-oh-oh").
Vaa Deal is an upcoming Tamil action masala film directed and written by Shiva Gnanam. It features Arun Vijay and Karthika Nair in the lead roles. The film has music by Thaman.

The first schedule of the film was held in Theni in October 2012. The climax shoot in March 2013 was scheduled to take place in a set worth 60 lakhs erected in Saidapet, Chennai but was postponed to avoid disruption to school exams.

Ran through the field that I'd once known
Read the books, traveled alone
But I can't say that I was by myself
You were always with me, we had no one else
And if I had my way I might just go alone
And if we can't agree, I'll take my things and go
I realized you helped along the way
But do I owe you everything I earned my way?
We will always say goodnight
We will always say what's right
We can never say goodbye
Here's to the time spent on the road
And here's to the girls they'd come and go
Here's for the time I lost your keys
And for all the times you brought me to my knees
Let's talk along the way, who's given in?
We'll make it through this, and yet be friends
There's something about this thing that we've lost sight
How we all did get along, I think we might
