Surely a better translation of Voulez-Vous is "Would you like" or "Would you like to" rather than the rather unromantic "Do you want". Cheers.
Fair use rationale for Image:ABBA - Voulez-Vous.ogg
[edit]![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/f/f7/Nuvola_apps_important.svg/70px-Nuvola_apps_important.svg.png)
Image:ABBA - Voulez-Vous.ogg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

To change Disco/Pop/Rock into Disco, Europop
[edit]I have sources which show Voulez-Vous is a Disco/europop song :
Disco :
- this source looks good to me. Flat Out let's discuss it 01:00, 14 June 2013 (UTC)
•""Voulez-Vous" ("do you want?" in French) is a disco track by Swedish pop group ABBA"
- this source is a mirror of Wikipedia. Anything that is added to wikipedia will be reflected here too. Unreliable source. Flat Out let's discuss it 01:00, 14 June 2013 (UTC)
- this source supports disco as a genre. Flat Out let's discuss it 01:00, 14 June 2013 (UTC)
RL = Rod Liesslie (who first created the Bjorn Again show in 1988 in Melbourne, Australia)
Europop :
- Looks OK to me Flat Out let's discuss it 01:00, 14 June 2013 (UTC)
•"How could ABBA's bubblegum Europop be so huge, critics wondered, at a time when challenging visionaries like Bruce Springsteen, Elvis Costello and Lou Reed were making records?" "So in some cases, Landgren takes Europop gems that already had a little funk to begin with -- including "Voulez-Vous," "Gimme! Gimme! Gimme! (A Man After Midnight")" and "Money, Money, Money" -- and gives them a great deal of funk." 86.214.54.113 (talk) 00:36, 14 June 2013 (UTC)
- i'm not sure about this reference since it is reviewing an unrelated album. I'll leave this for other's to give feedback on.Flat Out let's discuss it
So according to you, there are 2 reliable sources for "disco" and at least one reliable source for europop. I think it is enough to support my ideas. Of course, I would wait to see what editors of this page think about it. 86.214.54.113 (talk) 02:05, 14 June 2013 (UTC)
Egyptian-like instrumental breaks
[edit]There is not one word in the article about the unusual Egyptian-like instrumental break that occurs several times in this song. David Spector (talk) 14:41, 25 January 2015 (UTC)

Cover versions
[edit]I'm opening a discussion on this based on indirect advice from ColinFine. Nearly all of the versions featured in the cover versions section of this song were not demonstrably notable enough to be included here. This is why we have the rule of WP:COVERSONG; if we posted every single cover version of a song, it'd just end up being clutter. My suggestion to Ukance is: if you think a cover is notable enough, you need to explain why it's notable and include a source. Please consider that next time instead of impulsively making accusations of vandalism. Thank you. Songwaters (talk) 18:45, 23 May 2020 (UTC)
Hi, could you at least list the cover versions on this Talk page? I know of remakes by A*Teens, Erasure, and a sample by Stars On 45, but I would like to know of more. Thank you2600:1700:B9C0:DCA0:84CD:82A1:B002:2C0B (talk)ES — Preceding undated comment added 22:55, 10 December 2021 (UTC)
