Music: Stefan Wisnet and Gunther Moll
Lyrics: Pete Bellotte
chorus:
Night life, hot spot light
I've gotta make them dance tonight
Night life, hot spot light
I really want to shine tonight
Night life, hot spot light
I gotta steal a heart tonight
Night life, hot spot light
I'll show them how to dance tonight
I know that the competition's heavy
I know that these guys are cool
But I'll show this kid is more than ready
I sure got something to prove
Right now I'm just another guy
I don't mean nothing to them
but when they see me dance
When they see me dance
(repeat chorus)
Right now the music's moving higher
I feel them stepping up the beat
These shoes will set the floor on fire
Everybody on your feet
You thought that you'd seen the best
Well I can tell you, forget the rest
When you see me dance
When you see me dance
(repeat chorus)
(repeat chorus)

I guess this song belongs to The Very Worst Of Elton John compilation! 1½ stars.

"Spotlight" from VICTIM OF LOVE:
A disappointing album, in general, and this tune was not one of its best. Repetitive with a predictably strong disco beat. Elton really misfired on this "me too" disco record at a time when disco had become really uncool. There was still some popular and successful disco music around including "Miss You" from the Rolling Stones and "Do Ya Think I'm Sexy" by Rod Stewart which were miles more interesting and successful than anything on VICTIM OF LOVE. This was a time when Punk and New Wave were influencing the music scene; disco was fast becoming passé. "Spotlight" was forgettable.
Rating: 2 1/2 stars
