Prince Charles, as stiff as he may seem (I mean, did you see the video of him sipping a pint of beer with his mask still on?) is releasing a playlist on Spotify, with one song that apparently makes him want to shake his royal behind.

I am not sure if that is something I want in the realm of my imagination, but alas, there it is.

The favourite on the prince’s list is a song by The Three Degrees called ‘Givin’ Up, Givin’ In’. The band performed the song at Charles’ 30th birthday.

He says that “long ago, [it] used to provide me with an irresistible urge to get up and dance,” reports CNN.

In case you haven’t heard the song by the all-female group, here it is:

Apparently, the group were dubbed Charlie’s Angels thanks to their royal fan.

Charles’ playlist was shared as part of an hour-long show on hospital radio to thank healthcare staff and volunteers for their work during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Other songs on the playlist include:
  • ‘Don’t Rain On My Parade’ – Barbra Streisand
  • ‘La Vie En Rose’ – Edith Piaf
  • ‘Upside Down’ – Diana Ross
  • ‘The Voice’ – Eimear Quinn
  • ‘The Click Song’ – Miriam Makeba
  • ‘You’re A Lady’ – Peter Skellern
  • ‘La Mer’ – Charles Trenet
  • ‘Bennachie’ – Old Blind Dogs
  • ‘Lulu’s Back In Town’ – Dick Powell
  • ‘They Can’t Take That Away From Me’ – Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers.
  • ‘Tros Y Garreg/Crossing the Stone’ – Catrin Finch
  • ‘Tydi a Roddaist’ – Bryn Terfel

Way to ease any royal tensions there, Charles.
