ABBA ROCKS!
July 2, 2013 at 4:45 pm
Many people give me shit about liking them. But, even before I rediscovered them, another fan obviously with money to pay royalties, started Waterloo Radio a Facebook Radio Station, before I even knew it existed.

Anywho, early last week I suggested they have a rock segment of originals by ABBA that were rock and heavy, and remakes from future artists. Little did I know how many people were influenced on the rock side of ABBA.

"Watch Out" is an original which could have been preformed by KISS and not ABBA.

But I have heard metal versions of "Knowing Me Knowing You" and just now a punk/AC DC mix version of "Super Trouper"

So screw all you guys that give ABBA lip. They have influenced all sorts of music lovers from country to bluegrass to dance to classical and METAL!

I AM ON AN ABBA JIHAD!

I wish I had been old enough to see them in concert.

This guy is one of my favorite musicians, this is a pretty good cover.


Are you ready for the fire? We are firemen. WE ARE FIREMEN! The heat doesn’t bother us. We live in the heat. We train in the heat. It tells us that we’re ready, we’re at home, we’re where we’re supposed to be. Flames don’t intimidate us. What do we do? We control the flame. We control them. We move the flames where we want to. And then we extinguish them.

Impersonation is treason.

FifthElement and Brian jerking each other off? I kinda expected... more... from this 'ABBA JIHAD'.

Question of interest: is that singer transsexual... or just fat?

Ehh, for a casual listen: it's pop. Dry and standard and typical and formulaic.

I'm alright hearing them occasionally... but it's been a damn long time since I intentionally put them on my playlists. The Winner Takes it All is my favorite from them, but it's hard to endure the music to get to the passable lyrics Smile
