One of the tricky things about good satire is that often people miss the point that its making FUN of the thing its portraying (just like, in my opinion, too many people miss the point that the video game Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas was a satire of the 1990s--and a damn good one[also in my opinion]) So its something of an irony that "Disco Duck" became a hit for Rick Dees and His Band of Idiots among lovers of Disco (the very thing the song of which the song is making fun) instead of among the (then) growing number of people who thought (and mostly still think) Disco sucked.
