SOS was a great record, and a few others were decent.

SOS Gave Glen Matlock and Steve Jones the idea for the Pretty Vacant intro apparently

It's like some sad old "shot" boxer trying to make a comeback, isn't it?

Why does no-one without a financial interest sit ABBA down and explain that it's over, and they should live off any royalties they never signed away in a moment of madness?

Yep, just tell them thank you for the music but when all is said and done it's not all about money, money, money.

You could Ring Ring the bank at Waterloo, speak to Fernando (a-ha) and say Gimme Gimme Gimme.

This is all sounding rather camp.

What are they thought of in Sweden these days? I guess that with them being endearingly associated with the country since the 1970s, they’re still very much liked?

Do you like them Leado? Gay icons seem to have more pulling power, why is this? Why does a big gay somehow mean that a band is better? Sam Smith, Gloria Gaynor and Take That have big gay followings but they’re all shit.

I know, she was a name I instantly and lazily thought of who is a gay icon. She is good. Can I use Westlife instead?
