Day 14: a song that no one would expect you to love

So I kind of have this some-what secret love for ABBA. Yes, the 70s Swedish pop group. It all started with my Disney Channel days (which admittedly only ended recently, and that’s only because I no longer have cable), when I saw this UK group, The Steps, perform at some televised concert. They sounded a little like ABBA and covered a couple of their songs. And, although this video is quite ridiculous, I also was a fan of The Steps:

PS – according to the Wikipedia page, there may be a Steps reunion & documentary in the near future! But I digress…

Back to ABBA. Watching Mamma Mia solidified it for me. Luckily, I found a fellow ABBA-lover in Frances. I also took my mom to see Mamma Mia the musical. So without further ado, here are my top 3 ABBA songs:

“Take a Chance on Me”

“The Winner Takes it All” (doesn’t it somehow remind you of the One for Sorrow song?)

And of course, “Mamma Mia”
