The unofficial ABBA originals vs cover thread.

Yes, ABBA had a huge influence on music long after they disbanded. This is a thread to show you their talent and other artists who did covers or were influenced.

Here is the original "Gimme" song......



 



Followed by this metal artist cover.

There are covers?  


Wait, I know one.  The Ten Tenors did Dancing Queen.





Does this seem a little gay, not in a Vorlon way, but you know limp wrist gay?

Carol Douglas, Dancing Queen

and yeah, this is a REALLY gay version of the song.  My favorite take of a great song.  Literally almost brings tears to my eyes, just listening takes me back to the best days of my friends and my own life.

Did the cast of 'Facts of Life' ever cover an ABBA song?  If so, were they backed by the instrumental stylings of the cast of 'Hawaii Five-O'?

Boy, you know that last photo of ABBA really reminds me of the way the Beegees looked in their disco times. Same era?
