1. What's not to love about consistently killer hooks?
Joe Strummer was a fan, too!

2. Did you see the documentary about a week ago? It was great!
Mama Mia was opening in London and 3 of the 4 members of ABBA came and were interviewed. The documentary on the whole was SO good. I think it was called "Super Trouper - 30 years later."

6. D'oh!!!!!!!!!!!
I missed it... and the sad part is, all last week I'd watched mainstream television. :puke: It wasn't advertised or maybe I just missed it. :-(

3. Chiquitita
you and I know
How the heartaches come and they go and the scars they're leaving
You'll be dancing once again and the pain will end
You will have no time for grieving
Chiquitita, you and I cry
But the sun is still in the sky and shining above you
Let me hear you sing once more like you did before
Sing a new song, Chiquitita
Try once more like you did before
Sing a new song, Chiquitita

:P

8. you'll be shunned
having enjoyed at least one abba song in your lifetime is prerequisite to getting your gay card :7

4. S.O.S. is one of songs I hate to admit I love
But I (((hate))) Dancing Queen because of the movie "Muriel's Wedding".

10. Awesome
It's good to hear you declare it with no shame; I know far too many closet ABBA fans.

I'm not big on some of their hits, but it's hard to beat "Dancing Queen", "S.O.S." or "Fernando."

14. You know, when they were out...I loathed them, now, 20 years later, I
love them too!

Maybe it started with Priscilla, Queen of the Desert?
