A Eurovision-winning corker.

I love this song. ABBA songs always makes me think of Muriel's Wedding- a classic and Toni Collette was great in it.

Can we have 'The Winner Takes It All' at some point? It's my official bitter breakup karaoke song. I sound dear good, just like Rosie Ribbons.

It's Frida with the Nazi connection, not Agnetha, at least according to the Guardian last year. An excerpt:
"Known as the Tyskerbarnas or German children, they were the offspring of Norwegian mothers and German soldier fathers, the result of a Nazi plan to 'enrich' the Aryan gene pool. Now the group of up to 12,000, of whom many are now in their sixties, plans to fight for compensation in the European Court of Human Rights. Anni-Frid Lyngstad's story is typical of the suffering of thousands. After her birth in November 1945 - the result of a liaison between her mother, Synni, and a German sergeant, Alfred Haase - the infant's mother and grandmother were branded as traitors and ostracised in their village in northern Norway."
What a downer for the message board--that said, I love this song, and the "quick--look at the camera! video for it. When do we get "Knowing Me, Knowing You"?

A true classic - a historical kitsch pop song. Not only mighty in its melodies, but educational as well! Kat. x

I love agnetha's new single and I hope that Pop Justice's secret album is hers! I keep on singing it: I'm Through with you, if that's the best you can do.... Excellent. And Rosie Ribbons is cool as well!
