ABBA

Who doesn't love them some ABBA!!!??

I am putting all my music on my computer and came across my ABBA GOLD- greatest hits CD.

I don't think in high school I had ever heard of them-- but in college-- we rocked it out!

Funny story:
So I went to a medium sized Christian college (Calvin) and we had hours when boys had to be out of our rooms. I think it was midnight. So one day we were listening to ABBA and decided...
"Gimme, Gimme, Gimme" WINS!

" Half past twelve
And I'm watching the late show in my flat all alone
How I hate to spend the evening on my own
Autumn winds
Blowing outside my window as I look around the room
And it makes me so depressed to see the gloom
There's not a soul out there
No one to hear my prayer

Gimme gimme gimme a man after midnight
Won't somebody help me chase the shadows away
Gimme gimme gimme a man after midnight
Take me through the darkness to the break of the day

Movie stars
Find the end of the rainbow, with a fortune to win
It's so different from the world I'm living in
Tired of T.V.
I open the window and I gaze into the night
But there's nothing there to see, no one in sight
There's not a soul out there
No one to hear my prayer

Gimme gimme gimme a man after midnight
Won't somebody help me chase the shadows away
Gimme gimme gimme a man after midnight
Take me through the darkness to the break of the day

Gimme gimme gimme a man after midnight...

There's not a soul out there
No one to hear my prayer

Gimme gimme gimme a man after midnight
Won't somebody help me chase the shadows away
Gimme gimme gimme a man after midnight
Take me through the darkness to the break of the day"

So I hope you have a good laugh about this!!

Definitely got a laugh out of this one. I have so many fond ABBA memories, that the CD is still currently in my car for road trips. We had to play some at our wedding too, although the DJ ended up playing the wrong song. Yes, we had some great times to those tunes.
