ABBA Rocks!

I'm not afraid or ashamed to admit that I have ABBA on my iPod. It doesn't matter what your opinion of ABBA is, you have to admit that they wrote and performed some very memorable pop songs. You can't listen to "Take A Chance on Me" without singing along or tapping your foot. Everybody knows and can sing "Dancing Queen" off the top of their head. Some of my other favorites are "Does Your Mother Know" and "Super Trooper" (Soo-pa-pa Troo-pa-pa). Nothing says 70's awesomeness like ABBA. Well, tonight, the Rock and Roll community agrees and ABBA will be officially inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Along with ABBA, other groups to be inducted are Genesis, Iggy Pop and the Stooges, and The Hollies.

Ack! Not my favorite 70's band. Although I do remember working 3rd shift with a coworker (male) who kept singing Dancing Queen. Good comic relief. Not at all like the poor electrical tech who was whistling the chicken dance at 4:00AM. I remember threatening that guy with bodily injury.
