Hey, I had a novel idea: look for S.O.S. done in Swedish. Here it is. I've never heard it done in their native language. Kinda cool:

Here is Frida, who was trained as an opera singer, but this isn't opera. It sounds very Euro, WW II ish.

Strictly made up by Heather:
Heather : "Alcazar, can you tell me, eh, who was your inspiration?"
Alcazar: "Wham! Such a profound group. Yes, uu, they how you say? Mused us."
That Sexual Guarantee sure isn't as innocent as Dancing Queen. She's young and sweet, only 17. But she does tease.

Here is the Norwegian Band A Ha doing an interesting cover of the Everly Brothers classic: I'll Do My Crying in the Rain.

You know, I get shit for liking ABBA. I have every cd they ever produced. I also am a fan of a-ha. I am glad I am not the only 'weirdo' that likes them. (Now I have Fernando playing in my head,thanks a lot)

Oh, Avi, I am very familiar with HIM. My daughter is in love with the lead singer and sent me several MP3's. Julian has a HIM wallet that he still carries. I like their cover of one of my favorite Chris Isaak songs: Wicked Games.
Will, you just came along in the wrong generation. ABBA was so big when they hit the USA and really, they were all over the world. It was cool to like them, even if you were a Led Zeppelin/Jimi Hendrix fan. They have such talent and sound so good. People who give you flack, I guarantee you, most of them would end up fans if they sat alone with their CDS for an afternoon and they'd have Fernanado playing in their heads, but S.O.S. might be playing, too. -

Andy, his sister and I went to see the broadway playMamma Mia. It was great. And Muriel's Wedding, full of ABBA music and impression, it's one of my favorite movies.
