RUSHHEAD666 Posted March 13, 2016 Share Posted March 13, 2016 I thought for sure I started this years ago or perhaps even Myles started one. Truly ABBA are pioneers of the prog pop movement. If you don't agree then hey, it's all good. This band turned down half a billion dollars to do a world tour reunion because Agnatha suffered from stage fright. Unreal. So anyway back in the Seventies when ABBA was at their APEX, they actually generated more revenue than the VOLVO Corporation. Yet another Swedish "company." I think every song by ABBA is a HIT.Each record is perfect. As far as the marriage issues went in this group I like to compare Fleetwood Mac. The four members in ABBA eventually divorced hence making their songwriting even stronger. JMO Many songs in the ABBA Canon are about cheating and break ups. If you notice on the last album "The Visitors" it is the only album where the couples are not together. They are all separated on the cover. So my point about bringing up Fleetwood Mac is that that band went through a similar situation. Stevie and Lindsey divorced. Jon and Christie McVie divorced.Hence they made "Rumors." EPIC. My point is, some bands like Guns N Roses or Cream can make great records while doing heroin.Some incredible bands like ABBA and MAC can write epic records through heartache and loss. ABBA is in my TOP TEN. Sorry kids if you do get it.

Segue Myles Posted March 13, 2016 Share Posted March 13, 2016 No band comes close to ABBA for great melodies. In my mind the greatest pop band of all time. Greatest band of all time? That as well...I love The Beatles, but ABBA impress me more vocally and melodically. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Melodic Music from the Seventies is what I LOVE!!!!! The three greatest decades of music are The Sixties, The Seventies, and the Eighties! For my eyes and ears the Seventies were the perfect decade for all genres of ROCK N ROLL!!!! PROG BABY! ABBA IS PROG! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pat hates this band. I think they are the Swedish Beatles. I love every song. At least I know Myles is also on board. ABBA RULES!!! I saw the Mamma Mia! Play. Incredible.

Better than the Beatles.You just like to say that Earl to f**k with the status quo! You also like to say that John Lennon was a bum who wrote no songs at all, and it was all McCartney. Next you'll be saying Ringo wrote everything with Harrison and George Martin taking their orders from Barbara Bach aka Mrs.Starkey, with Yoko sucking cocks in the back. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Segue Myles Posted November 19, 2020 Share Posted November 19, 2020 I love ABBA. I've been in a huge pop/rnb binge lately. ABBAMadonnaKylie MinogueMariah CareyToni BraxtonPat Benatar Yeah...loving it! I don't really have a single favourite ABBA album. Closest is probably The Visitors or Super Trouper. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
