"
'Right', said Ron, who looked extremely put out,
'this is getting stupid. Ginny, you can go
with Harry, and I'll just -'
'I can't,' said Ginny, and she went scarlet too.
'I'm going with - with Neville. He asked me when
Hermione said no, and I thought ... well ... I'm
not going to be able to go otherwise, I'm not in
fourth year.' "

The Yule Ball - Commentary
It’s time
to don your white suits and brush up those dance
moves; it’s the Yule Ball, Disco style!
In her 3rd
year of Hogwarts we see Ginny attend the Yule Ball
as Neville’s partner. Following on from the
advice she took in Hermione’s plan, far from
pining over Harry all night, we decided to show
Ginny having fun, dancing and meeting new people,
namely a certain Michael Corner! We felt that
Disco was the best style to compliment this song
as the light-hearted beat and groovy bass line
simply makes you want to dance. As you can
see from our picture, all the Weasleys are joining
in and showing off their disco moves, but no
matter how hard Gred and Forge tried they just
couldn't convince Percy to join in. So what did
they do? Dress him in a bright blue and yellow
jumpsuit and force him to stand in the middle
under the glitter ball of course! (their other
plan to trick him into a spotlight dance with
Moaning Myrtle didn't work). Poor Percy. |

The
Yule Ball - Lyrics |
|
|
The
Yule Ball has begun |
|
Everybody is dancing, having fun |
|
The
hall is covered with sparkling silver frost |
|
You
could almost get lost, in the starry black sky |
|
I think I could fly |
|
|
|
All the tables are lit with lantern light |
|
Crystal goblets, and glittering golden plates |
|
I can hardly wait, for the band to play |
|
Just take it away |
|
|
|
Dance! C'mon everybody just dance! |
|
You'll love it if you give it a chance |
|
C'mon let's dance (c'mon let's dance) |
|
At the Yule Ball |
|
|
|
Everyone is here |
|
All the teachers are filled with Christmas cheer |
|
Neville asked me when Hermione said 'No' |
|
Otherwise I couldn't go, I'm so glad that I said
'Yes' |
|
'Cos the Yule Ball's the best |
|
|
|
When we get hot we'll drink another Butterbeer |
|
And step outside where there's lovers holding
hands |
|
But I've got other plans, get me back on the floor |
|
And we'll dance some more |
|
|
|
Dance! C'mon everybody just dance! |
|
You'll love it if you give it a chance |
|
C'mon let's dance (c'mon let's dance) |
|
At the Yule Ball |
|
|
|
Hermione's with
Krum |
|
I've never seen her
having so much fun |
|
Ron is watching
them and sulking by the wall |
|
He hasn't danced at
all, he should have asked Hermione |
|
And Harry should
have asked me |
|
|
|
I've met some
people and made a few new friends |
|
A boy called
Michael I haven't seen before |
|
I think he's
Ravenclaw, he asked me on a date |
|
And now I feel
great |
|
|
|
Dance! C'mon everybody just dance! |
|
You'll love it if you give it a chance |
|
C'mon let's dance (c'mon let's dance) |
|
At the Yule Ball |
|
|
|
Dance! C'mon everybody just dance! |
|
You'll love it if you give it a chance |
|
C'mon let's dance (c'mon let's dance) |
|
At the Yule Ball |
