When you think Queen Elizabeth II, you likely do not think 1970s disco. And yet, England's longest-reigning monarch ostensibly gets down just like the rest of us.
Last week, word got around that the Queen's favorite song might be "Dancing Queen" by ABBA-- she is the Queen, after all. Per NME, BBC radio DJ Chris Evans first shared this factoid back in 2008 based on a story he'd heard from a friend who'd attended a dinner with the queen.

In fact, when a 2016 BBC documentary revealed a list of the Queen's favorite songs, there was nary an ABBA track in sight.
