Boogie Oogie Oogie" is a classic 1978 disco hit by the American R&B band A Taste of Honey, written by Janice-Marie Johnson and Perry Kibble. The song was a response to a hostile audience at an Air Force club, with Johnson writing its catchy lyrics and bassline after guitarist Hazel Payne's improvised "too cool to boogie" chant. Released on the band's debut album, it topped the US pop, soul, and disco charts, sold over two million copies, and won the Grammy for Best New Artist. | Mark Hall
