I was in a cafe today and heard "one of us is crying....". What a fantastic song. I feel oddly compelled to go and buy an Abba record cd and jig around the sitting to it with dds.

Are you thinking of Eternal Flame?

lulalullabye · 16/05/2008 21:38

bangles one is eternal flame

WileECoyote · 16/05/2008 21:39

Okay, 'I am the one and only' makes me shudder in a not particularly pleasant way rather than tingle, I have to add!

Teuch · 16/05/2008 21:39

That's the one! [wistful]

Maria McKee Show me heaven (holiday romance that lasted a while!) oh and Steve Miller The Joker (same holiday romance). Both songs still transport me back to that time.

moondog · 16/05/2008 21:41
