I'm impressed by everyone's choices although I'm not sure if I'm familar with "Relight My Fire"? Doesn't mean it's bad, though, just don't think I've heard it and it's listed twice.

Relight my fire was by this one hit wonder guy, a white guy and I dont know if he was British or American. He was totally slated, cos covered relight my fire, passed it off as a Disco song and it just sucked!! Disco men need some soul! Youre lucky you havent heard it.

Sorry other guys, its just not comparable to the likes of Chic, Donna Summer and all the other artists with an ounce of street cred.... fro

"Relight My Fire" (1979)) is by Dan Hartman,who was hardly a one-hit wonder.He had another big disco hit in 1978 with "Instant Replay" and in 1984,he had the biggest hit of his career with the pop song "I Can Dream About You".

"Instant Replay" annoys me for some reason,even though it has a killer groove.I prefer "Relight My Fire",it's a better song.
