Call me a dag if you wish, but I like Bert Newton.

Yup, I liked watching Ol’ Moonface keep the folk in line on Family Feud and doing the culture countdown on 20 to One.

I’ve also tuned in to watch the latter show’s new short-form version, 10 to One (Nine, Tuesdays, 7.30pm).

And if there was any doubt about my dag credentials, let me fess up right here: I loved tripping the disco light fantastic with the toupeed one in last night’s episode.

The theme was “Songs that Make You Want to Dance” but it could just as easily have been “Songs You Can’t Get Out of Your Head”.

It was a psychedelic trip down memory lane that was probably lost on anyone under the age of 30 but resonated with those of us who remember daggy dancing to tracks like Play That Funky Music, Nutbush City Limits, Mamma Mia and I Will Survive.

And if we’re really honest, some of us would have to admit digging out those old CDs (ahem, records) to give them another spin on nights when a few too many shandies brings on a strange yearning to revisit 1999, Go to Rio or do The Time Warp.

The official list of 10 to One Songs that Make You Want to Dance went like this: 10. Let Me Entertain You by R. Williams; 9. Mamma Mia by ABBA; 8. Nutbush City Limits by Tina Turner; 7. Play That Funky Music by Wild Cherry; 6. Time Warp; 5. I Will Survive by Gloria Gaynor; 4. 1999 by Prince; 3. I Go To Rio by Peter Allen; 2. Celebration by Kool and Gang; 1. YMCA by The Village People.

It’s not a bad wrap, but I can’t help feeling that there were a few noticeable absences. Where was Dancing Queen, Micky J’s Thriller and something – anything - from those dancing kings the Bee Gees?

So c’mon fellow dags, I know you’re out there: What songs put you in the mood to boogie oogie oogie?
