Although perhaps best known for their international hit Barbie Girl, Scandinavian POP geniuses Aqua are so much more than a Matel-lawsuit. Their 1997 album Aquarium is full of so many obnoxiously happy POP goodies that chosing justone for 90s Sunday is like selecting one flavor at the ice cream store. But it's settled: Happy Boys & Girls, Aquarium's opening track, encompases the album's uber-upbeat feel pretty damn well. For those of you who did NOT own this album, I suggest you listen to the song below. For over 10 years it has cheered me out of my deepest funks.
So get up and DANCE boys & girls!
Unapologetically,
Minna
