        After "the winner takes it all", their music got a bit depressing, I thought.

          Sorry FC. I expected a different Abba, not the Abba of old which now sounds quite dated.

            They did say that they didn't even try to modernise, but rather to pay respect to the music that folks knew them for.

              Abba can do no wrong in my eyes, but each to his/her own.

                Surely these are old tracks, not that I have heard them before.

                Can't say I was ever a fan but I feel a bit nostalgic when I see the old videos, visually they were good so it's very sad to see them looking so old. Except one of the blokes hasn't aged at all, he always looked about 50 :old:

                    'The winner takes it all' was a masterpiece.. Sadly it's one so many of us can identify by.

                      They will do the old songs because there's new people to listen.
