The music changes from low to high notes to create a peak, as the notes also crescendo to indicate that one is proclaiming to the world their connection to their youth and carefree life. By adding emphasis to every word in the main chorus, the words become indisputable and turn into commandments that one is proclaiming. The fluctuation in the singing of “tambourine” mimics the actual sound of a tambourine, adding an aura of music flowing through the room. The grandiose melody is topped off by the powerful vocals to re-energize the listener and allow them to feel just as ecstatic as they were at the beginning of the song. The heart-tugging high notes as the lyrics reach their emotional peak depict the listener letting free all stress and worries and allowing themselves to be consumed by their inner youth. A naïve sense is created when the lyrics tell that the dancing queen is “young and sweet, only seventeen” which adds to the innocence of the songs theme. The line “you can dance, you can jive, having the time of your life” is again repeated from the first verse as a reminder or almost even to fully integrate the idea into the listeners mind that they too can still enjoy life whether young or old. Overall in this verse, the music is what really offsets the song into a jovial tone rather than the lyrics. Without the positive melody, the lyrics would be lost or would be rather
