À gogo

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The French term à gogo, often anglicized as A Go-Go, meaning "in abundance, galore". Alternate spellings vary widely, particularly concerning the placement and number of dashes as well as the use of the "a" (see "see also" section). The term is often used in popular culture, especially in the field of music and dancing. Though earlier uses of the phrase were meant to lend a cosmopolitan feel to subjects, modern usage tends more toward an ironic, campy appeal.
