brilliant...I think Pet Shop Boys were influenced by this

It's one of the best songs ever. So influential and yet criminally overlooked.

Here's the real video: http://www.youtube.com/wa...gwNvoNL0Ds

The guy in it is completely my type.

lala

Woohoo

That song makes me want to sniff poppers and dance with my pants on my head!!!

Don't forget 'C'est La Vie'

You put my back against the ropes
Just waiting for the final bell
Should I throw in my towel
And cash in my chips as well

I roll the dice, I deal the cards
I spin the wheel to see
Like that Danish guy in olden times
Are we to be or not to be

The other day it made no sense
You started building me a fence

C'est la vie! C'est la vie!
C'est good for you, c'est bad for me
C'est la vie, c'est la vie
Say "what will be, will be, will be"

C'est la vie! C'est la vie! (C'est la, C'est la, C'est la vie)
C'est good for you, c'est bad for me (quite definitely)
C'est la vie, c'est la vie (C'est la, C'est la, C'est la vie)
Say "what will be, will be, will be" (Be be, be be, be be, be be)

I don't mean to be a drag (you are a drag)
Has our love story reached it's end (ah-hah)
You see I turned the page last night (you turned the page)
Found you there with my best friend (she's your best friend)

Has our final whistle blown? (has it blown?)
Or is our love in extra time? (I don't know)
We never seem to play at home (not any more)
And I'm left here on the touchline (you've been sent off)

I roll the dice and spin the wheel to see
If our love is now a casualty

C'est la vie! C'est la vie! (C'est la, C'est la, C'est la vie)
C'est good for you, c'est bad for me (quite bad for me)
C'est la vie, c'est la vie (C'est la, C'est la, C'est la vie)
Say "what will be, will be, will be" (Be be, be be, be be, be be)

C'est la vie! C'est la vie! (C'est la, C'est la, C'est la vie)
C'est good for you, c'est bad for me (quite seriously)
C'est la vie, c'est la vie (C'est la, C'est la, C'est la vie)
Say "what will be, will be, will be" (Be be, be be, be be, be be)

They wrote that in honour of the Bee Gees. Can't you just tell.

My fave Abba song is Eagle, I think.

Now that I'd like to see!!

My favorite ABBA tune is "Like an Angel Passing Through My Room"

Cloudbuster said:

I like "Eagle." I think my favorite, though, is "The Name of the Game."

Frack, it's impossible to have only one best ABBA song!

Every song they did is pure ambrosia! Even the spanish versions are ace!

Conociéndome, Conociéndote
Fernando (Spanish Version)
¡Dame! ¡Dame! ¡Dame!

SOS is far better imo.
