On the train the other day and a teenage girl had ABBA on her ipod which took me and my mate by surprise '' bit young to be listening to that arent you'' my mate said, why she replied i think they are brilliant and im going to an ABBA night tonight so im getting in the mood.
This was a bit of a shock to me i thought they were looked upon by todays kids as naff seventies cheesy pop, apparently not, it seems their music is still very popular with people of all ages and has a cult following amongst the young and a lot of young girls idolise Agnetha.
Myself i can take them or leave them and im in my 50s, but i will admit The Winner Takes It All, Dancing Queen, and Eagle get me still singing along, but if the wife watches Mama Mia one more time i will kick the telly in
 
Those that claim they are shit will know every song and word which says it all.

Quality!

I think we've got it somewhere. I remember buying it at the same time as the Pulp Fiction sound track.

Wouldnt they need zimmer frames, must be in their 60s now
 
The impact that ABBA made in their ten years or so together was absolutely phenominal , and their music is still heard everywhere ...... they may not have been everyones cup of tea , but they were definitely a lot of peoples , all over the globe ....... worldwide they have sold over 370 MILLION records , and are still selling records , even now.

The guys were superb musicians , the ABBA sound was unique , and instantly recognizable , even today 30 years after they split .... and the girls had harmonies that were second to none ...... ABBA , as a band oozed professionalism , and when love eventually soured , things turned difficult , and they themselves began to question their spirit , they called it a day as a foursome.

Like them or loathe them ABBA spelt out sheer genius ....... they will never reform because they know they can never be what they once were , and few people can blame them ..... they had the perfect balance of sex appeal , charm and sheer musical brilliance.

They were complete one offs as most european music is fucking crap. British, Irish and Americans are responsible for the best music.
