Description:

Anyone looking for the key to Abba's enduring appeal should look no further than "Voulez Vous" and "Gimme! Gimme! Gimme! (A Man After Midnight)" for their answer. There was an innocence to the Swedish quartet, even when they were singing about one-night stands and the invitations to them. Gold establishes that the band, while appreciated as campy, were actually multifaceted in their execution. "S.O.S." has a raw urgency in its chorus, and "Does Your Mother Know" draws its energy from classic '50s rock & roll. Likewise, you don't have to be Priscilla to swoon over "Mamma Mia" or "Dancing Queen." And when it comes to drama, those soaring vocals on "The Winner Takes It All" turn the song into a bitter anthem of every relationship that has ever fallen apart. The much-covered "Lay All Your Love on Me" is practically epic. --Steve Gdula

5Abba  Nov 19, 2009
I went to see theatrical production of Mama Mia - sat on aisle second row - could see stage - actors facial expressions and most of all, the music conductor! Was phenomenol! Bought this CD, it's been in the CD player in my vehicle since the day I received it. Great. Downloaded it on my computer - listen to it all the time. I remember 3-4 of ABBA songs from my youth, but they are all my favorites now. I drive 25 miles to work and back everyday - I sing along and "dance" as much as I can - great music!

Saw the movie "Momma Mia" and bought this for the oldies! Bought it for my wife, because I have NEVER owned an Abba album!

5Better than Gold  Oct 21, 2009
What a Joy. ABBA is so easy to enjoy they fill the room/auto with timeless music.
SIMPLY THE VERY BEST. Better than Gold.

5Definitely GOLD!  Oct 18, 2009
I've been a long-time ABBA fan, and this is probably my favorite album. It has all the great ABBA songs, and I play it frequently. Even my seven-year-old granddaughter loves it, and I plan to give her one for Christmas.
