They're halfway to Bollywood.

I never understood the appeal of disco. It seemed that the tempo was the same in all songs and I found that boring.

I think this song is in Kill Bill.

It is enough to incite Animal Rage!

KDP: that would be because the rhythm, at least, was the same in all disco, and that quite intentionally. Look up the detestable "four on the floor" - it does damage to music to this very day.
