I didn’t let myself listen to the original from then until it was fully recorded so I might forget certain details about it, leaving only my impression of it’s foundational elements – the way the quiet, unsettling verses give way to the savage choruses, the way the big transitional guitar line overwhelms you every time it happens.

Organized by radio DJ Steve Dahl, it invited fans to bring disco records to be blown up on the field between games. The stunt drew more than 50,000 people—far exceeding expectations—and spiraled out of control. After the explosion, thousands of attendees stormed the field, causing chaos and forcing the White Sox to forfeit the second game. The event became a cultural flashpoint, symbolizing the backlash against disco but also drawing criticism for its undertones of racism and homophobia, since disco was closely tied to Black, Latino, and LGBTQ communities.\n--\n“We wanted to reclaim that space and make it a playing field where all are free,” Say She She explained. “So we turned it into a discodelic dancefloor with our words, and every four on the floor drum beat is hopefully a stitch sewn.”\n--\nHere's a Guardian interview, published today (September 5th, 2025) with the trio: https://www.theguardian.com/music/2025/sep/05/say-she-she-music-interview-cut-rewind-jools-prism-sabrina-cunningham-piya-malik-nya-gazelle-brown", "location": 1, "location_name": "Default", "play_type": "trackplay" }, { "id": 3549162, "uri": "https://api.kexp.org/v2/plays/3549162/?format=api", "airdate": "2025-09-05T08:48:23-07:00", "show": 64479, "show_uri": "https://api.kexp.org/v2/shows/64479/?format=api", "image_uri": "", "thumbnail_uri": "", "comment": "", "location": 1, "location_name": "Default", "play_type": "airbreak" }, { "id": 3549161, "uri": "https://api.kexp.org/v2/plays/3549161/?format=api", "airdate": "2025-09-05T08:45:04-07:00", "show": 64479, "show_uri": "https://api.kexp.org/v2/shows/64479/?format=api", "image_uri": "https://ia601904.us.archive.org/17/items/mbid-10798e2e-0798-44f7-99fa-d81bc4b44b05/mbid-10798e2e-0798-44f7-99fa-d81bc4b44b05-15404789817_thumb500.jpg", "thumbnail_uri": "https://ia601904.us.archive.org/17/items/mbid-10798e2e-0798-44f7-99fa-d81bc4b44b05/mbid-10798e2e-0798-44f7-99fa-d81bc4b44b05-15404789817_thumb250.jpg", "song": "Begin the Begin", "track_id": "72148744-cdd6-3333-9a18-227251543323", "recording_id": "ef7bc67f-1072-4798-8145-c4fff10fce47", "artist": "R.E.M.", "artist_ids": [ "ea4dfa26-f633-4da6-a52a-f49ea4897b58" ], "album": "And I Feel Fine… The Best of the I.R.S.
