Outstanding song writing and were all able to sing.

You don't have to love them to recognise their talent.

ABBA is amazing, just have to listen to track like “my momma said” to realise how many of these would still be massive hits if they were realised today.

Love them so many great tunes but my particular favourites are "Does Your Mother Know" and "Mamma Mia" the fact English is their 2nd language makes them even more impressive

Missin’ Yo’ Kissin’

Pete Townsend used to listen to Abba -"S.O.S" when he was tuning and warming up for The Who gigs. Must admit its not bad.....

I prefer "Does Your Mother know?"Great guitar riff and keyboard at the beginning - especially when they sing: "Take it easy (take it easy),

Try to cool it girl,

Take it nice and shlow" (that bit always makes me laugh .They say slow every other time.)

The Swedish hate them and eveyrone around the world likes them - go figure...

Mutya is one of those girls I refer to as spangley, like Tina from S Club 7. They are both a little odd looking but because of it have loads of sex appeal. Don't ask me why that means they are spangley, I think I made that term up in my very strange head!

Love ABBA. So many great songs. Dancing Queen is a great dance floor filler. Frida is still so very hot, can't resist a smartly turned out older woman.

Dancing Queen took 6 months to arrange, compose... Worth every moment of say. True classic.

I like Abba . Loads of favourites but

"Like an angel passing through my room" and "Slipping through my fingers" must be near the top.

Please don't ask me to comment on Mamma Mia

Always liked ABBA. The four of them were all talented musicians, finding popularity in Sweden from the mid-60s in other groups, or as solo artists.
