    I’ve always thought that this song was meant to be something else, like slower and more nostalgic. This was exactly what I’ve been waiting to hear all my life! You nailed it! Definitely giving some Kacey Musgraves vibes, especially during the verses. I’d love to hear more reimagined classics like this!

    Lyrics ❤️
    Ooh
    You can dance
    You can jive
    Having the time of your life
    Ooh, see that girl
    Watch that scene
    Digging the dancing queen
    Friday night and the lights are low
    Looking out for a place to go
    Where they play the right music
    Getting in the swing
    You come to look for a king
    Anybody could be that guy
    Night is young and the music's high
    With a bit of rock music
    Everything is fine
    You're in the mood for a dance
    And when you get the chance
    You are the dancing queen
    Young and sweet
    Only seventeen
    Dancing queen
    Feel the beat from the tambourine, oh yeah
    You can dance
    You can jive
    Having the time of your life
    Ooh, see that girl
    Watch that scene
    Digging the dancing queen
    You're a teaser, you turn 'em on
    Leave 'em burning and then you're gone
    Looking out for another
    Anyone will do
    You're in the mood for a dance
    And when you get the chance
    You are the dancing queen
    Young and sweet
    Only seventeen
    Dancing queen
    Feel the beat from the tambourine, oh yeah
    You can dance
    You can jive
    Having the time of your life
    Ooh, see that girl
    Watch that scene
    Digging the dancing queen
    Digging the dancing queen

    this reminds me of the tender lightness that gripped my chest when I first heard James VIncent's cover of higher love. I just bathed in the sound like a cool breeze on a cloudy that takes the unease and pent up everything. this added five years to my life span.

    Ditto to all these comments. I actually broke down crying listening to this song in my car parked in my drive way. Lol
    I was actually thinking to myself how dumb we all are…as in humanity. The innocence of life and how beautiful and tragic it all is….
    Yes you definitely turned this song into another masterpiece. ABBA would be proud you took this song to an even higher level.
    Thank you Stacey Ryan for helping us to open our eyes and ears to what is still beautiful and good in this life/world. And never stop singing/making these masterful arrangements. You are a true musician!❤️

    I love abba because it’s so iconic, u play a song by them and everyone just wants to dance. And now with your version shows the potential to influence a future generation. I love the 70s disco style but I also think the potential for diversity brings so much more to the table. Abba is my favourite band and this blew me away.
