Not sure I can muster up the courage to listen...
Agnetha, the Lebensborn Baby.
Nooooo
Halleluiah Björn, Again!..................
They should have taken the billion 20+ years ago when it was offered for a tour.
That should be IN 40 years.
Fail.
Regards,
So after 40 years it will be unreleased?
Trivia question.
Q: What Swedish group has had the most #1 hits? ( most answer ABBA. They’re wrong )
A: Roxette.
ABBA still holds he title for most sales though.
In Saudi Arabia the town next to us was Abha. Not many proofreaders there as signs for some restaurants and businesses would would show up with ABBA instead of the town name. They put up the signs anyway.
Benny - the world’s most unhappy man - made $$Millions with ABBA - was married to the blond singer - had the world by the behind - but according to recent documentary, he was never happy. What a jerk.
Uh, “iconic”?
Are they finally going to do this? Might be interesting. Theoretically, a “halodeck” style performance might bring many favorites back to life, if only on stage. Jimi Hendrix, Janis Joplin, Jim Morrison, Felix Pappalardi, Buddy Holly, Sam Cooke, and so many others might return to the stage, if they have enough footage of them to create the effect. I am interested, but that doesn’t mean I’ll pay to see it.
Reminds me of what Sharyl Attkisson said about the capabilities of the intelligence community. They can produce digital versions of people that cannot be detected as digital versions of people.
Saw them when they did their one American tour in 79. It was a good show. That year I was a driving instructor for a summer and one of my students gave me tix since they weren’t using them.
They released two songs today. I can’t say I’m bowled over by them. I’m going to give them another try later on...maybe I missed something on the first listen.
ABBA for me was as much about looking at Agnetha as it was listening to the music.
Now that she’s at 71, not so much.
And suddenly, the music sounds hokey, too…
Will Pierce Brosnan and Merly Streep sing backup?
I wonder if I will survive?
If they just stick to to the music they might make a comeback.
Mark Watney: Tell Commander Lewis, disco sucks.
Mark Watney: [listening to “Turn the beat around”] I am definitely gonna die up here if I have to listen to any more of Commander Lewis’s god-awful disco music. My God, Commander, could you have not brought something from this century? No, I won’t “turn the beat around,” I refuse to.
h/t “The Martian”
Please tell me Cher isn’t going to be there.
