In 1976 I started my education.

In 1976 I was just getting born to my loving hippy parents

They weren't really into disco though, but I'm sure
I have a 'dancing queen' gene in here somewhere

(Hmm...ooc..could be wrong about Abba, but I thought they were around the time of disco)

Yes ABBA was around at that time.

I managed less than a year of the 70s. I think this is why I feel no desire to wear ridiculous flares and I dress very well.

I do have a lava lamp though....

A dancing queen?

Lets see the 70's Ted Nugent, Kiss, Black Sabbath, AC/DC, Led Zepplin, Aerosmith. Lynard Skynard, and many more bands. My two tours in Nam. 67 and 68. I lost 2 uncles and two second cousins, in that filthy sh!t hole.

Darkpoet: Sorry sweetie *hug* My father got assinged to a desk job during that war, but he almost fled the country to escape it...

Drak: That song is reffering to a WOMAN dancing "She was the dancing queen, see that girl..." etc...therefore I used it as my dancing girl referrence. It's actually a cute song

Kid: I LOVE that song! *tries to remember the lyrics* Very passionate and mysterious, made me want to date a mexican desperado

Darkpoet: *hugs back*

I hope they don't actually make me work today, I feel like spamming

*looks at the papers on her desk and sighs*

Hi Lady Vivienne.

How are you?

I actually quite like ABBA myself. Especially mamma mia.

Vivien, honey I've get you this present then :

FERNANDO

Can you hear the drums Fernando?
I remember long ago another starry night like this
In the firelight Fernando
You were humming to yourself and softly strumming your guitar
I could hear the distant drums
And sounds of bugle calls were coming from afar

They were closer now Fernando
Every hour every minute seemed to last eternally
I was so afraid Fernando
We were young and full of life and none of us prepared to die
And I'm not ashamed to say
The roar of guns and cannons almost made me cry

There was something in the air that night
The stars were bright, Fernando
They were shining there for you and me
For liberty, Fernando
Though I never thought that we could lose
There's no regret
If I had to do the same again
I would, my friend, Fernando

Now we're old and grey Fernando
And since many years I haven't seen a rifle in your hand
Can you hear the drums Fernando?
Do you still recall the frightful night we crossed the Rio Grande?
I can see it in your eyes
How proud you were to fight for freedom in this land

There was something in the air that night
The stars were bright, Fernando
They were shining there for you and me
For liberty, Fernando
Though I never thought that we could lose
There's no regret
If I had to do the same again
I would, my friend, Fernando

There was something in the air that night
The stars were bright, Fernando
They were shining there for you and me
For liberty, Fernando
Though I never thought that we could lose
There's no regret
If I had to do the same again
I would, my friend, Fernando
Yes, if I had to do the same again
I would, my friend, Fernando...

Vixen: That and the 'money song' which always makes me laugh 'money, money, money...'

sort of like 'If I had a million dollars....bla..bla..I'd be RICH'

LOL Viv and DP have something in common: Dancing Queen

My parents still have pictures of me dressed in wide collar shirts and velour sweaters

Alas, but I was there for the '70's...

Hello to everyone I didn't say hi to earlier

I'm going to sit with DP in the Rock corner since I detest disco.

Weasel · Post by **Weasel** » Thu May 17, 2001 9:00 am

The Gong Show was a hit.

T'lainya · Post by **T'lainya** » Thu May 17, 2001 9:03 am

LMAO Weasel

I'd successfully put that out of my mind!

Waverly · Post by **Waverly** » Thu May 17, 2001 9:05 am

I admit to liking the gong show

Gene Gene the dancin' machine...

@Lainy: no one 'likes' disco. It's something you suffer though the makes you appreciate the finer things in life. Now get out onto the lighted dance floor and dance to Funkie Town.

My parents have pictures of me wearing winne the pooh shirts.

Hey Waverly your dad give you military hair cuts when you were a kid?
