Agnetha...

I just got 2 of her albums from amazon today..OOOMMMMMGGGGDDD!!!!! Most of its in Swedish and Im Swedish too and know the language. Dancing Queen and all the rest are awesome in Swedish. 2 cd set called "My love, my life"36 songs total and one song made in 1968 with Frida called "Sonny Boy". It's just too pretty to describe except for "UNDERBAR" 'wonderful' in Swedish.....Bill in Az.....

Babs confusion swept away

You are so correct LP. That's what happens when one doesn't
keep up on their brain stimulation; little details like
"Color Me..." and "My Coloring Book" tend to blend into
a nice sweet batter.
I do like ABBA, never bought any of their records, can't even remember which era that was, I have one Kate Bush, fairly
early I think and I have yet to drop the tone arm on it!
Wasn't ABBA a sizable chunk of the soundtrack for "Priscilla,
Queen of the Desert" ?

I must confess I have been fickle with ABBA. When they around in the 70s they were huge in AU (AU was the first place outside of Sweden they were a hit.) I was a fan then, I was in my early teens. Later they became "uncool" for being too saccharine and lightweight. I forgot about ABBA. When Priscilla QOTD and Muriel's Wedding hit the screens I heard ABBA again and loved hearing it. Not enough to buy anything but I thoroughly enjoy ABBA music when I hear it.

I Loved the movie "Muriels Wedding", was that shown in US?

There's an episode of Maclcom in the Middle that has Dewey dancing on the kitchen table with a rose in his mouth, as Bea Arthur as his babysitter dances beside the table, to the music of "Fernando".

Then Bea Arthur suffers a major heart attack.

Don't know if that is a commentary on ABBA or not.
