Like, have you listened to them?
I know,
Dancing Queen,
Waterloo,
Does Your Mother Know...
I was born in 1984, and it wasn’t until the early 2000s that I told a much older friend of mine that I had just discovered ABBA. He dead-stared me in the eyes, with no conceit, and no ill will — and with only pure interest! — was all like, “oh, you just discovered ABBA?!
I know the Puritans will say they learned only by phonetics. But the words came from somewhere.
Nobody needs a 40 year post-mortem on the awesomeness of ABBA.
But if you listen to this in the next several minutes, this is what I’m listening to, on loop, on my ancient iPod.
Such a short URL? Hecks. Do you know? A song about the folly and loneliness of celebrity is going to be a pretty goddamn good one.
