Oh Yes...Big time ABBA fan here in Alabama...and don't remind me.  I feel older than dirt now.
I read last year where they were offered a huge amount of money to Tour Again and they flatly
refused.  Damnit! :'(

I LOVE ABBA

I LOVE ABBA as well, ever since I was a little kid. Listening to their songs, 90% of the time, always puts me in a good/better mood, even the sad ones like "The Winner Takes It All." I spose ABBA is already considered quaint or retro?

I have always loved ABBA.    I thought Mamma Mia was the cutest, most clever musical I had seen in ages, they way they worked all the ABBA songs into the story line....

For my cell phone "ring", I have ABBA's "Dancing Queen"......so I definitely know when my phone is ringing!

I LOVE ABBA!!!

My only regret is I never got to see them and chances seem pretty slim they'll ever tour again since they've refused.

I wanted to see Mamma Mia when it was here but missed it.  Hopefully it'll come back around again or I'll have to travel elsewhere to see it.

I hope you get to see it Phil, it is FANTASTIC.   One of those shows where the whole audience is on their feet, clapping and cheering and dancing.....

PS - I love the song "Fernando", but no one else seems to care for it much....

Oh no, I love "Fernando" too! But I have too many favorites to single one out.

I hope everyone's seen Muriel's Wedding, a terrific Aussie movie with a great use of ABBA.

Alan, Fernando is my favorite ABBA song.  Has been since I was little and listened to it on my mom's 8-track with the HUGE headphones on.  ROFL  (now there's an image we could all forget)  :D

I was so bummed when they refused to re-group and tour.  I would mortgage my house to see them live!!!

I love Fernando.  I think it is probably one of their best songs.  I don't have a particular favorite because I like just about all of them but one I used to play a lot was 'Like An Angel Passing Through My Room'.  It's a great lullabye and I used to listen to it a lot before going to bed at night.

Sad, I know. :P

At the risk of being chased by an angry pitchfork-wielding mob, WOW, music videos have changed A LOT.

I couldn't help but laugh while watching it.

Now keep in mind, Molten, dear, that this video was made in '74 or '75--a good 6-7 years before the birth of MTV.  Music videos weren't exactly the order-of-the-day back then.

Now where the hell did I leave my pitchfork...
