What was ABBA's worst song?

[tuvor]

You know it: Great as they were, they've had some clunkers.

For me it's gotta be "I Do, I Do, I Do, I Do, I Do". Sounds like something my grandma would have liked. (And did, come to think of it.)

1. dancing queen, especially after watching "Muriel's Wedding"

holy crap, that song played over and over and over and over throughout that damn movie. :puke:

If i had to pick a favorite it would be SOS.

[stanwyck]

7. I love "Muriel's Wedding!"

How could you not love a movie set in Porpoise Spit, Australia? And starring the wonderful Toni Collette and her pal, "Brenda", from Six Feet Under?
One of my favorite lines. "You can't talk that way to me! I'm beautiful!"

[jonnyblitz]

13. dancing queen played over and over and over ruined it for me. nt

[begin_within]

14. ...and, "And you three... you're just a bunch of cocksuckers!"

[stanwyck]

26. You can't stop progress!

Muriel's dad was the ultimate Aussie Republican. All family values/conservative...with a perky happy-talk mistress and an amazingly dysfunctional family.

[LostinVA]

23. Me too -- and "Cosi"

[Reverend_Smitty]

2. I shouldn't go for the obvious joke here but...

what can I say, I'm weak...Asking for their worst song would imply that they had a best song...lol...there I did it! but seriously they aren't as bad as some 70's bands

[WritingIsMyReligion]

3. *coughStarlandVocalBandcough*

*clears throat*

Sorry, did I say that?

;)

[tuvor]

4. Aw, man, that hurt...

But not that badly. :)

When I saw them do Mamma Mia on the CBC in 1976, I knew what baby boomers were yammering on about when they recall seeing the Beatles on Ed Sullivan.

5. I guess I'm just of another time

:P

[spindrifter]

6. Come on--I love Dancing Queen!

ABBA is the only music I don't dare take to work. Can't afford to get an earworm there.

[Aristus]

8. Worst song???

Haven't any of you ever heard "Nina, Pretty Ballerina"?

That song is twenty kinds of awful! :puke::puke::puke:

[tuvor]

9. Well, my first pick was actually...

..."King Kong Song" but I figured not many had heard it.

Your suggestion's definitely one of the bad ones.

[Aristus]

10. Yeah, can I pick 'em or what?

B-)

[GoneOffShore]

11. Thank You for the Music.

Arrgghhh~!

[grace0418]

17. Yeah, that would be my pick.

So self-congratulating, and annoying.

[mvd]

21. I love most all of their songs, but I guess..

that would be the one.

[Rabrrrrrr]

12. Any that was released to the public.

[mwooldri]

16. And... "The Winner Takes It All." Another G_A Song.

[begin_within]

15. Their BEST song is the almost-uknown "The Visitors" (from 1981 or 1982)

[TOhioLiberal]

19. I have that cd...

there's some weird shit on that CD.
The song 'Soldiers' still resonates today.

[begin_within]

25. I bought the 45 of it and the LP album, at that time it first came out CDs

were not really on the market yet, I don't think. They must have come out with the CD a year or two later. They were hte only ABBA records I have ever bought. How weird.

[TOhioLiberal]

30. I was going to say 'album'...

...but I didn't want to date myself...:blush::hide: I have both the CD and the album...

[Deja Q]

24. Yuppers, "The Visitors (Crackin' Up)" is their best.

Eagle being #2...

I'd say the worst is "Fernando", "Mamma Mia", or "Does Your Mother Know".

[EstimatedProphet]

18. The recorded ones

[u4ic]

20. Any Torontonians

remember the Polar Bear Express ride at the CNE?

It seemed like (way back when :blush: ) all they blasted was ABBA songs.

When I hear them, they bring me back to a good time. :bounce:

[terrya]

22. "I Do, I Do, I Do, I Do, I Do" is their worst song. No Question.

Sounds like something that might have been performed on "The Lawrence Welk Show". Horrible.

[npincus]

27. all the ones between A and Z.

[NewWaveChick1981]

28. All of them!

They involved bell bottoms and helmet hair....Need I say more???? :puke:

At least the Bay City Rollers had the decency to be one-hit wonders. Abba was the Energizer Bunny of bad pop.... :rofl:

[meegbear]

29. You mean there are good ones?

:shrug:

[B3Nut]

31. SOS is a great tune

one of the only ones of theirs I like. Well-written, nice little keyboard runs, and is well-recorded, too.

32. OK OK I do like some songs ...

just don't tell anybody, OK?
