Amazon.com essential recording Anyone looking for the key to Abba's enduring appeal should look no further than "Voulez Vous" and "Gimme! Gimme! Gimme! (A Man After Midnight)" for their answer. There was an innocence to the Swedish quartet, even when they were singing about one-night stands and the invitations to them. Gold establishes that the band, while appreciated as campy, were actually multifaceted in their execution. "S.O.S." has a raw urgency in its chorus, and "Does Your Mother Know" draws its energy from classic '50s rock & roll. Likewise, you don't have to be Priscilla to swoon over "Mamma Mia" or "Dancing Queen." And when it comes to drama, those soaring vocals on "The Winner Takes It All" turn the song into a bitter anthem of every relationship that has ever fallen apart. The much-covered "Lay All Your Love on Me" is practically epic. --Steve Gdula

  loved it August 28, 2008 Loved the ABBA Gold. It had all the familiar songs from the recent Mama Mia show
  "Abba Gold" August 26, 2008 I bought this and Mamma Mia and love both versions. The cost on this was amazingly reasonable that I could not resist ordering it even though I have Mamma Mia.
  flowergirl August 26, 2008 Great music! After seeing the movie Mamma Mia had to find a cd and this one contains all the songs from the movie. "Feel good" music makes you turn the cd player up and sign as loud as you can!
  Still a dancing queen who is tone deaf August 16, 2008 My sisters and I loved ABBA from the day we heard their first song. Funny, our Parents did also. It is happy music and it makes me want to get up and dance (great exercise) and sing (yes, I am tone deaf but who cares!) I bought the ABBA Gold when it came out and I am still playing it, never tiring of the music. Listen to the music and you might feel the same way. Get up and dance like the dancing queen or king that you are and feel good to music that is not busy making a statement. Good fun - that is what we all need and how long has it been since you have had plain old good fun? Enjoy!

ABBA - Gold: Greatest Hits I play this CD loud in my car with the windows both up when in traffic and down when on the open road. I love Abba as much as I like my own books. Look me up. This one is about when I went to China. U.S. Chicanas and Latinas Within a Global Context: Women of Color at the Fourth World Women's Conference
