History Lesson, With A Beat
I recently discovered this song through the Just Dance 2020 game that my daughter loves to play: Rasputin by Boney M.
Not only does it have a good beat and an upbeat melody, the moves are definitely culturally appropriate. But the part I love the most is that it takes a largely forgotten historical figure of great importance of his time, around the Russian Revolution, and tells his story very succinctly. It takes a great amount of talent to do that, and it's sad that Boney M. didn't get more recognition for this marvelous work.
