It's possible that it was more of a ballad than a disco song.  So if that's the case I doubt it would have been played in discos. I have some memories of places that I heard it that were not in discos but on the radio.

 

I recall there was a bit of a travelogue aspect to the song in the lyrics. 

 

Ballad, then maybe this

Maybe a little later but a nice song.

 

 

Will check all those out later.

Currently surrounded by Iranians so it wouldn't be prudent to listen at this time.

Yeah the year range is a guess. Could be wrong.

Maybe the song wasn't as big of a hit as I thought. 

The pot thickens.

Friends at work (half my age) asked me if 80s was fun, everone sounds so happy.... DAMN OFF COURSE IT WAS.

Little ditty 'bout Jack and Diane
Two American kids growin' up in the heartland

 

Sadly none of those though I Love America is hauntingly close.
