Alcazar – Crying At The Discoteque

Review: Alcazar's "Crying at the Discoteque" is a glitter-soaked slice of early 2000s Europop that captures the essence of campy, unapologetic disco revivalism. Released in 2000, the track blends throbbing synths, Nile Rodgers-inspired guitar riffs, and punchy vocals, resulting in a sound that feels like a flamboyant night out in Studio 54—if it were somehow teleported to the Y2K era. While not groundbreaking lyrically, the track thrives on its infectious energy and self-awareness. It doesn’t take itself too seriously, and that’s exactly its charm. "Crying at the Discoteque" helped cement Alcazar's place in the Europop scene and remains a cult favorite in queer nightlife and nostalgic DJ sets alike. Verdict: A guilty pleasure that’s more pleasure than guilt. Whether you're heartbroken or just want to strut your stuff under a disco ball, this track still delivers over two decades later.
