Dancing Queen, but that could be due to a lot of travling in Las Vegas when Mama Mia was playing so I heard that damn song EVERYWHERE!

Dancing Queen is okay, but it has been played a lot.

I think I would go with either Fernando, or Waterloo...........yeah, Waterloo

What can I say? I've got the whole of ABBA gold ripped and in my 144-gig .mp3 collection.

Though I'm actually listening to some psychobilly music by the Reverend Horton Heat right now.

Oh, now it's playing 70s-era Michael Jackson music at me. Should I kill it? It's Off The Wall...

ABBA never did a bad song. Every song was "greatest".

Without really knowing anything, I hid a part of me away. I need a lot of sleep, and so I like to be in bed by now, but..that was they hour before you came. You won’t have me tonight, though, as I can't chat with you baby [as some fucked up skype thingy refuses to deliver my messages to you]

I suppose there's a best ABBA song in the same way that there's a best way to die, but I don't want to experience either of them if I can help it.

I will confess to having owned "The Album" when I was, oh, eleven or so, but I have since moved on. For me, the only proper place for ABBA music is in Australian films about cross-dressers.

Oh, pshaw. You'd be up and moving if you were so moved. Or loaded. Or if nobody was looking.

Admit it.

I'm not saying that I did see Abba in concert. But then again, I'm not saying that I didn't.



All I'm saying is that when you're young and horny you do some really, really, REALLY stupid things..... if a particular young lady asks you to.

Sure you have.

For me, the only proper place for ABBA music is in Australian films about cross-dressers.

Priscilla, which is about drag queens and not cross-dressers, is relatively devoid of ABBA. You should see Muriel's Wedding.

You're right, of course--I've seen both of them. But I didn't inhale.

No need for shame. Both are among my favourite films.

My copy of Priscilla is due for replacement. I'm going to get rid of most of my VHS movies, except the Roger Corman bootlegs and the WWII propoganda cartoons, of course.

"Kassandra". A cookie for all who even know that one.
And "What about Livingston?"

Of the more famous ones, "One of us" and "Fernando"

the last one is still giving me goosebumps. I'm such a freak....

I voted for Super Trooper but it only just beat On and On and On.

Unfortunately, my 1980's era tapes are all shot :( , I only have Arrival on vinyl, and no turntable :( , and I only have Gold on disc, so I don't have so much of the more obscure stuff.

Dancing Queen

wonderful harmony, funky beat... and for this dude who loves getting in touch with his feminine side via the use of falsetto voce, this song is fun!
