Best ABBA song and why?

[RichardsGear]

Seeing ABBA Voyage soon and getting in the mood listening to the set list. Best ABBA song for me is SOS - just utterly euphoric and bizarrely gives me goosebumps when they sing the, "When you're gone..." bit.

What's yours?

Nobody has yet mentioned my favourite, which is the rather less well-known I Am The City. It wasn’t released until More Abba Gold came out in the 90s. Check it out on YouTube.

Thanks for the searing tips! @HalfasleepChrisintheMorning

Know idea why it's my fave but i LOVE it! SOS is second best

Romantic: I Do, I Do, I Do

Quirky: Nina, Pretty Ballerina

Super trouper. I just like it. I like the supapa troopapa bit.

I have a guinea pig that does some large poops, so Super Trouper has become his song....Super Pooper!

Love them all, went to the show on Sunday evening, best ever concert.
I have the Arrival LP, off to dust off the turntable now.

The Winner Takes It All.

Mamma Mia film when Meryl Streep is running up the mountain, Pierce Brosnan calls out 'Donna' as she runs away, gets me every time.

Hole in Your Soul is a great one for happy feelings.

Knowing me, knowing you - harmonies and more Anni Frid
Summer night city -edgier than there usual fare

are right up there for me!

@RichardsGear do you think a fidgety 8yo would be ok there? In the seated bit? She likes Abba music

Voulez Vous 😀🎶
I still keep my ABBA Gold in my car CD compartment.
When you know an album so well you can hear the next song before it starts?
That's me.. Pump it to the max and literally dance in my seat! Ah-Ah! 😍

Angel Eyes
Does Your Mother Know

Least favourite is Dancing Queen

There were loads of songs at ABBA Voyage I didn't recognise so I need to get hold of the playlist and go Down The YouTube RabbitHole

DD and I are going back to Voyage in December <unreasonably excited>
