The best pop band from the 70’s to come out of Sweden.
@laurenigula They were pretty great. Heard about their reunion tour?
Dyslexic children’s song: abba klab sheep
@Zen whhhaaa??? no but i’m on it.
@laurenigula JK. Actually, there’s a story. They have been offered toreunite countless times,and have always declined, saying theypreferto be remembered this way. I’ve read that they were offered upwards of a billion dollars.
You say ABBA, I think of the band’s founders:
A gnetha Fältskog
B enny Andersson
B jörn Ulvaeus
A nni-Frid Lyngstad
Farms! (I’‘ve had that stupid Hillshire Farms commercial going through my head for like a week. Go meat!)
Dabba Doo!
Gee Fred, what did you think I was gonna say?
Sweden
An ex-girlfriend
General radness

@Kraken : i hear you on that one! Is this the SHUT THE HELL UP IDIOT that you’re on? I should start BEING A RIDICULOUS IDIOT soon too huh? Shoot, it’s already DUMBASS : 30!

@dearest_prudence Think of a certain prehistoric lizard and you may know me. I turned aquatic.
?
ok, very nice change, I think
Where is the spring and the summer
That once was yours and mine?
Where did it go? I just don’t know
But still my love for you will live forever
Hasta manana ‘til we meet again
Don’t know where, don’t know when
Darling, our love was much too strong to die
We’ll find a way to face a new tomorrow
Fucking Kraken is Kevi!
Now I’m LOLing, not hating.
PS: I might not last long. I have free thoughts & they’ve already noticed… sigh
@katinthehat Shhhh, don’t let the kat out of the hat all at once. I just want to start over here anew. Kevino is good for the soul, have you heard?

@katinthehat I see they removed one of your posts. What we need to realize is that we need to act at a PG level here. That’s part of their standards. I for one will never moderate anything unless it sounds wike a baby got an account here. You know what I mean. You’re alright by me.

@katinthehat Wow! Never heard of it put that way before but you do have quite a way with words. Where shall you be going then?
…IF YOU CHANGE YOUR MIND!
I’M THE FIRST IN LINE!
…I don’t wanna talk about it.
@seVen I’m quite sure that’s what they meant when they formed their band.
I’m so cliché, but the first thought that’ll pop up is, indeed, Dancing Queen.
There was something in the air that night and the stars were bright Fernando…
I think awesome and then am forced to question my sexuality because of that thought.
@boots when you decide to experiment, will you video it?
@dearest_prudence Well, the thought goes away pretty quickly when I actually see the chicks that were in ABBA. They were hot.
@boots ok, well still, if video it and send to me if you get the feeling for experiments
lol
Much like so many others at this point…Mamma Mia! :)
Who knew ABBA would generate so much activity and three great question points. LOL.
Gimme gimme gimme some posts after midnight.
@Zen I like a man after midnight better
lol
Anyone care to Jesus this question?
@Jeruba Of course not, what was I thinking. He’s a proper noun, and a gerund by night.
But in your usage, an infinitive. Looking for a translation.
“Masters of Melody”. For me, the best musical pop group ever, that created original, melodic, and unique songs, even though English was not their first language, and still succeeded internationally as one of the greatest musical acts of the 70s. Can you imagine an English or American group attempting to write songs in Swedish and trying to break into the Swedish pop charts at the same time? Uh, never! Lol.
There has always been this erroneous belief that ABBA’s music was disco. Only a few songs by ABBA had a “disco flavor” to them. Most of their songs were complex, well-orchestrated unique pieces that one could not “categorize” them in any real genre.
