1. Dancing Queen is one of the 3 greatest disco songs. I will Survive and We are Family...nt

2. I had several students gone on a field trip so I had less than 1/2 the class

they were doing a map exercise on Lewis and Clark and I just had a thought about the song.


I said to Fernando "Did you know you had a song"

he said no, what is it about so I played it.

He thought it was cool, then the youtube list showed there was a Spanish version and they asked me to play it and it was even more of a hit.


I had students wanting to look up the CD's so they could buy them on Amazon


it was fun

6. When my friend Fernando got married, he & the wife played that

ABBA song at the wedding. And others.
Dancin Queen is hypnotizing. But so is OnYetta. She is fascinating to me and always was.
I cannot listen to some of them. To sad. I Have A Dream. Chickyteetah? How is that spelled.
SOS
Some real heartbreakers there.

13. OK now you need to dig up the rerun of Malcolm in the Middle

where Dewey and Bea Arthur dance to that song.
