Thanks for all your generous love

Gosh...

remember how sad they looked...

Or maybe they didn't?

Rubber BALL man

I'm sorry I couldn't find any pictures of ABBA playing footbal/soccer or doing anything with a ball whatsoever (yeah, there are some pictures of Benny and Frida playing tennis. Without a ball unfortunately ;-)

Instead some pictures with round objects!

Soap bubbles for the bubbly couple

note Björn's buttons!

Agnetha (do I need to say more?)

The ladies in leotards (again: do I need to say more)

uh-oh!

Who's that lurking around the corner?

you're like a goldfish in a bowl

The cover of JM Potiez new book:

Gorgeous!!!

I am an A but one B is missing

A pre ABBA blonde Frida.

A pre ABBA brunette Frida a k a Cuti-Frid

A post ABBA blonde Agnetha

Ah, I'll cry while you're disappearing

OK, let's do some bitter, sarcastic and spiteful remarks today!

Eeehm... Benny has a beard!

That's what fans are for

Catty! that was the word I was looking for.

Oh dear I have no inspiration

not even when I look at Agnetha in bikini I can come up with some sour comment ;-)

Kan du visa oss den väg som vi ska gå

(Thank you for being so patient with me again!)

.

But what would ABBA do?

.

We do what we always do.

Just wait and drink champagne.

.

ABBA, distracted by a nudist rugby team.

Yeah, so what?

Hey, I feel a pop group coming on!

and now I sense the end of something!

Though we quarrelled at times

Stone age ABBA

(the years BD*)

here they are the group that sang about that battle in Belgium

Even before ABBA were ABBA 

ooooh! Dungarees. Sweet on toddlers rediculous on grown up men

Benny lost his head in Spain

*Before Dancing queen

You're a legend

ABBA

in

the

RRHOF

yes!

they deserve it.

ABBA is rock 'n' roll, very neat and polished rock and roll but still rock and roll.

34 years ago. Thirty-four! Years! Ago!

Alguien que me ayude a las sombras borrar.

Carola: Don't worry Agnetha I'll do a perfect Frida impersonation.

Before it's her turn, Agnetha is already practicing thank you for the wonderful flowers in Spanish (Gracias por los erm... flores erm...)

She just knows.

Just a little smile that's what they say

And what do these photographs have in common, apart from ABBA of course?
Nothing!

or....
.

they were all shot between 1975 and 1982...
.
there is at least one woman in all of them...
.
Agnetha looks lovely as ever...
.
Frida, as always, knows there's something going on...
.
Björn wears rediculously tight trousers in all of them
and Swedes are the number 1 coffee drinkers in Europe
(interesting fact of the day, has nothing to do with the rest of the pictures)

ABBA song of the day:
Take a chance on me

Boy, I was tough

ABBA were so not cool in the 70s
but they were tough in a way, their own ABBA way so to speak.
.
.

she had a lot of street cred before ABBA

.

you have to be tough to flirt with another man before your husband's eyes.
.

Agnetha and Frida had an attitude, or should I say four.

Don't mess with Agnetha!



Those boots!
