Saw the movie Mamma Mia and decided I had to have an Abba album. I didn't want the movie soundtrack, just because apart from Meryl Streep the other vocalists weren't a patch on the original. This album has most of the songs from the movie (but not Money Honey, or I do I do I do) and a couple of other favourites that weren't in the movie, like Fernando. Great stuff. I hadn't realized how Mediterranean a lot of the original songs sounded.

I ordered this gift early (14/1/09) so that it would reach my sister for her birthday (27/1/09) well on time. It ended up being about 4 days late. The point of me ordering from a NZ company (since I live in the US) is so I know (at least I thought I knew) that company will get it to the final destination (Wellington) a lot faster than an overseas company. You have proved me wrong. 17 days to deliver? Ridiculous. I am very loath to use fishpond again.

For an Abba fan this is really good. A bit disappointing that a few of the greatest are not on there.

An excellent album. I think it is the best album of Abba. I danced around the room listening to it again.

It is now as uncool NOT to like Abba as much it was considered uncool to like them in their heyday. Thank goodness for common sense. With the passing of time it is obvious that, along with maybe the Beatles, Abba produced some of the best songs ever written. Listen closely to their music and you will hear intricate layers and touches created by slick production work that were mostly missed at the time. Add to that two of the most distinctive and talented voices around and the recipe was sheer perfection. Long live the Swedes.

I am the right age to have known ABBA in its early years, but I didn't. I've always been out of synchrony with music trends, but I enjoy what I enjoy, when I enjoy it. I "discovered" ABBA in the late twentieth century (Man, that makes me feel old!), and still enjoy them. At first, they come off as "ear candy, and a few of their songs are just pretty fluff, but an examination of the lyrics (yes, there are real words accompanying that powerful beat and those lush melodies) shows that there is some depth there. Not always, but more often than you might think, and not always where one might expect it.

An excellent album consisting of some of their best songs, a great complication. I enjoyed the majority all of the tracks on here, but felt some of their best work was missing. In spite of this is still a must have to any fan and for the great price you can’t go wrong. A must have

By this CD and find out why ABBA are as hot today as they were thirty years ago! The original and the best Eurovision song contest winners, this was one of the few bands to go on and prove that they had more than a Euro song in them! Includes the hits Dancing Queen, Waterloo and many many more. Great!

Everyone must own an abba CD, and this one has to be it. What else do you listen to on dress up nights? All the all time favourites, that everyone knows and can bounce around the lounge is whilst screaming into a hairbrush. Essential for everyone.
