Would never have had you down for an ABBA fan, Gassage.  Thought they would have been a bit camp for you.

I f*cking hate Abba....

The air is black with thrown hats down in Brighton....

And I flipping love them. Some of the catchiest pop tunes ever written and recorded. Great hooks. Don't know many other bands that guarantee to fill the dancefloor when a DJ plays them either. They seem to span all generations.

They wrote some cracking tunes.  Mama Mia proves their popularity.  

GDP of Sweden about to get a boost.

Absolutely spot on.

The EU's Beatles.

How can you not like Abba.  Abba were one of the best bands ever invented.  Especially Agnetha Fältskog

If you don't like abba you don't like music

Cool. I wonder if they'll write some new material, be great to see them at No.1.

I think they are pretty awesome.
The song craft is on a completely different level to most other pop bands of the time.

If they tour I'd probably even try to get tickets.

I love ABBA.

I'd be concerned the voices would be gone. The vocals on most of their tracks are insanely hard to pull off.

Meh

Isn't it some kind of virtual show... not an actual reforming of the band???

They were exceptional songwriters to be honest.

I agree! Although I probably wouldn't go as they would likely be insanely expensive.

That makes you officially miserable you realise. Abba are pop-perfection.

So this is the band you've been prepping up for, with the 30-day challenge!

I can remember seeing this in 1975, and Ms Fältskog having a certain effect on me - I was only 10, but still, phwoar...
