Just reset the playlist on my iPod after charging it and these came up on shuffle this morning to get me moving:

and very appropriate for an early Saturday morning:

I remember waiting for the new ABBA single to come out in 1981 after the great Super Trouper album the year earlier with The Winner Takes It All as the single. Donny Sutherland announced this song off The Visitors album as the new single and at the time i was horrified, over the years though i grew to love it and realised what a truly great song it is, being older i can really relate to the lyrics now.

Can you just start an Abba thread?

Can you just start an Abba thread?

Well they had enough songs to have a thread of their own.

Someone on the old Wall used to say "Take me down to Sydney City where the Chooks are mean and Souths are s****y" and it stayed with me all these years every time I hear this song. Was it anyone who now posts on here?

I got this album for my birthday:

The song that just keeps on giving and giving.

This is my favourite Olivia song. It's the equivalent of when life gives you lemons, make lemonade type of song. Like always looking on the bright side when people try and drag you down. I know she wrote this about her cancer battle but it's great for any kind of battle anyone may be facing in life. I find myself drawn to it when I need inspiration. If there is only one song from my collection that I could carry in my heart, it's this one. Hope it helps others too:

Great song from Olivia. They played it on the big screen at 1994 Rugby League Grand Final not long before Olivia came out to sing the National Anthem.

This one comes up in my IPOD a lot.
