This Collider article is a light-hearted, opinion-based countdown of the ten best disco songs recorded by rock artists, framed against disco's popular decline (symbolised by the notorious 1979 "Disco Demolition Night" stunt in Chicago) and its earlier dominance during the era of Saturday Night Fever. The author argues that, despite disco's uncool reputation among rock purists, several major rock acts produced genuinely strong disco tracks worth celebrating rather than dismissing.

The list opens with the Grateful Dead's "Shakedown Street" (1978), which the writer insists is a true disco song despite fan protests, noting it never charted on the Billboard Hot 100. Second on the list discussed is Electric Light Orchestra's "Shine a Little Love," backed by frontman Jeff Lynne's own admission that the track had a disco beat and a forty-piece string section. The piece continues in this ranked, song-by-song format, though only the top two entries are detailed in the excerpt provided.
