No SHADE but I was thinking this morning how I wondered if anyone would put anything from Voyage in and how it's ENTIRELY alien to me that it's even REMOTELY possible (for me). I can't think anything would trouble my top 30...
 
I considered both Don't Shut Me Down and I Still Have Faith In You. They would both be in if I extended it to a 20.

I doubt anything from the rest of the album would trouble top 40 though.

I guess because I wasn't old enough to remember them from the first time round, the newer songs are special to me :angel:
 
We were meant to have I Still Have Faith In You playing as we left our wedding ceremony, but I think the person in charge of the music forgot to play it :D It played in my head anyway...!
 
*edit* - I missed out The Visitors and Honey Honey!

THE DEFINITIVE RANKING, although I’m surprised at an entire lack of album tracks. I mean, I wasn’t expecting KING KONG SONG, but still…

Oh that wasn't meant in a I KNOW LOTS OF ABBA SONGS way, more a 'there is no other act I could do that for without scraping the barrel' way.

Apart from Kylie, of course.

I am having some regret about not putting SOS on my list.

And The Winner Takes It All. I feel like it's one of my absolute favourites, just not right now.
 
With thanks to Pingu's ranking which gave me the villain edit, I know my top ten are thus:
  1. Lay All Your Love On Me
  2. Gimme Gimme Gimme!
  3. Intermezzo No1
  4. Does Your Mother Know
  5. Super Trouper
  6. The Piper
  7. Money Money Money
  8. Voulez-Vous
  9. The Visitors
  10. I'm a Marionette
 
1. Super Trouper
2. When All is Said and Done
3. SOS
4. The Day Before You Came
5. Lay All Your Love On Me
6. Knowing Me, Knowing You
7. Andante, Andante
8. Our Last Summer
9. Take A Chance On Me
10. Angeleyes

It would appear that reflective ABBA is my preference.
 
Slightly OT: Is anyone watching this 'The Joy of Abba' on BBC2? Obviously an old show on at this time - I am being educated and schooled and loving it :disco:

You would almost think that most of the voters in this were horrible basics.
 
It was definitely the breakout of Mamma Mia - didn't realise there was anything currently happening.
