Let’s Get It On

Nancy's Notes 🖊️🎶

This week at Glyn Wilton’s Mixed Music Bag,
he’s asking us to write about a song in which
the title or a line mentions the current month. 
Here’s my featured March artists and their song.

Well, my peeps. I’ve been somewhat indisposed with a bad stomach bug my sweet Colette shared with me. Let me tell you, it has not been easy staying in the WordPress game this week, so when I came across this little ditty, I knew I had struck gold! “Eureka” I cried so loudly, Bill came rushing in to make sure I hadn’t passed out and fallen in the bathroom!

Get out your Funk-O-Meters, my friends and get ready for a treat! I’m not quite sure exactly what’s going on in this video but that’s OK; some things just don’t need to be explained. What I know for sure is these beautiful, free-spirited people know how to have a good time! And wouldn’t you know it …. I have the exact same outfit stuffed into a tissue box!

This is one rare gem and I’m truly diggin’ it. If this doesn’t make you wanna get up and dance, you better check your pulse; you might be dead!

Boney M. is a reggae, funk, and disco music group founded in 1974; they achieved popularity during the disco era of the late 1970s. The band was created by German record producer Frank Farian, who was the group’s primary songwriter and singer. Originally based in West Germany, the four original members of the band’s official lineup were Liz Mitchell and Marcia Barrett from Jamaica, Maizie Williams from Montserrat, and Bobby Farrell from Aruba. The band has sold millions of records worldwide and has recorded many international hits.

Let’s get it on! This is “Calendar Song” by Boney M. Everybody, sing along!

Wasn’t that fun? You’ll probably find yourself humming this tune later today; I gladly take full responsibility.  And let’s not forget, this song can be used over and over throughout the year!

    1. This was such a delightful number, Michele, and those happy people are so beautiful! I’m sure you were up and dancing in no time. 💃🏻
      I’m improving but this virus has thrown me for a loop. It’s taking a lot longer to pass than I thought. Thanks for your good wishes. ☺️

  7. I haven’t heard these guys since I was a whipper snapper. We’d listen to the old heads rapping about this and that while they were sipping on a little something. As the tracks played in the background, “What you know about this, Youngblood?” Of course, we knew nothing, but we learned. I never imagined we would one day be sprouting our version of “What you know about that?” Great track, Nancy … thanks for the memory.

  12. This was a very enjoyable song Nancy, and I hope that you recover from the stomach bug soon. This thing I liked best about your post is when you said that you have the exact same outfit stuffed in a box and I wonder why you don’t wear it all the time, as I am sure that everyone would love to see you in it.

  14. Boney M were huge here for a couple of years. Unfortunately my wife loved them so I had to endure one of their albums being played a lot. One of the many musical crimes of the disco era!

    1. Maybe your wife was trying to drive you out of the house! 🤣

      This is my first time seeing this video. These beautiful people and their energy put a big smile on my face. 😁

      It also proves the point that there are all types of songs about the month of March on the net; one just needs to look for them. 😎
