Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Use dmy dates Шаблон:Infobox song "Crying at the Discoteque" is a song by Swedish band Alcazar from their debut studio album, Casino (2000). The track samples Sheila and B. Devotion's 1979 hit "Spacer". Alexander Bard produced the song and can be heard in the middle of this song. Released in April 2000, "Crying at the Discoteque" became Alcazar's first international hit single the following year, reaching number one in Hungary and the top 10 in Flanders, Germany, Ireland, Italy, and Switzerland.

Music video

A music video was produced to promote the single. It shows Alcazar as a 1970s retro band during the making of the video, against a setting that suggests either a deserted planet or a wasteland. They wear futuristic outfits with the backing dancers sporting animal masks (including a horse head mask). During the filming things go wrong with the set designers getting in the way, the band disagreeing with the director, having script changes and general other mishaps.
