Writing, ranting, drinking and dating. Ancient Rome. Whatever I damn well feel is good to write about.

Abba : 20 Minute Playlist

April 28, 2018 by Tim Robson in 20 Minute Setlist

Well this one is an exciting 20 minutes! 

I always liked Abba and used to play their Greatest Hits 1974-76 in the 70's (pictured above). At university I defiantly played Abba - The First Ten Years. In these days of Mama Mia, you can't begin to understand how much derision I got. Clearly I was before my time in appreciation of good songwriting, crisp production and extraordinary vocals.

Anyway, as it was announced that the group has remarkably recorded two new tracks this year, here is my 20 minute Abba setlist.

Waterloo

Voulez-Vous

Dancing Queen

The Winner Takes it All

Bang-A Boomerang (SOS)

Super Trouper

All classics. The emotional highpoint would be - of course - The Winner Takes It All (their masterpiece). If this gig were played twice, then I'd alternate the early stompers Bang-A-Boomerang / SOS. Take a look at the video below. Mmmm, I'm thinking I'd like Agnetha and Frida to wear their cat 'dresses' in my fantasy concert... They could sing too, if they wished!

Agree?
