"Boogie Oogie Oogie" is a song by the American band A Taste of Honey. Released from their self-titled debut studio album in 1978, it became an extremely popular "crossover" disco song. The lyrics urge listeners to "boogie oogie oogie till you just can't boogie no more". It topped the ''Billboard'' Hot 100 chart, the Hot Soul Singles chart, and the Hot Dance Club Play chart. It eventually sold over two million copies and has become one of the most recognizable songs from the disco era. It also helped the group to win the Grammy Award for Best New Artist of 1978. It reached #3 on the UK Singles Chart. In the late 1990s, the song was used in a national campaign advertisement by Burger King and was sampled by numerous rap acts. The song was also used in a campaign for Rold Gold Pretzels (featuring the actor Jason Alexander) in the mid-1990s. Janice Marie Johnson, a member of the group, recorded another version of the song in 2001. The song was used in the first episode of season four of ''Nip/Tuck'' and in an episode of ''Lucy, the Daughter of the Devil''. GQ released its own version of the song in 1979.
