Ten months ago, ‘The Great Thin-Down’ began, and The Vinyl Constituency has been in a sorry state. Now, circa 400 LPs lighter, and just in time for Christmas, it’s completely sorted and, oh, I have an early Christmas gift from my wife! ♥️😀 #VinylRecords#Vinyl#VinylCollection#ABBA
"Gimme! Gimme! Gimme! (A Man After Midnight)" is a song by Swedish band #ABBA. It was recorded in August 1979 in order to help promote their North American and European tour of that year, and was released on ABBA's #GreatestHitsVol2 album as the brand new track. https://youtu.be/JWay7CDEyAI
This week in the next #TOTP year, Record Mirror published a letter from Neil in Birmingham asking after a remix of "Dancing queen" by #ABBA. RM agreed that ABBA were brilliant.
"With 'SOS' being nicked in the 'Edelweiss' novelty record perhaps the time is ripe for a comeback. A quick straw poll of the office revealed that 'Knowing me knowing you (ah-haaa)' is our fave Abs single."
It appears the US distillation of the highlights of the core of Scandinavia is: Abba, Aebleskivers, Marvel's Thor, Swedish meatballs, Legos, and croquet through little carved wood horsies named Dala (Note: my impressions have no basis on actual culture) #Abba
