These are some of the finest pieces of pop music ever written. I pretty much know the No.1 but I'll have another listen through on my way to and from work to finalise the order.

Thanks for the memories. IT was said they were not very good musicians, however they must have had good management to put together so many hits. I wonder did they write their own songs?

No.8 Eagle (1978) Not released as a single in the UK

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dDI7x1nwTUw

This lengthy track (ABBA's longest) is a very inspiring song and its also one of only two things I remember about ABBA The Movie. Very nicely done.

No.7 Our Last Summer (1980) Not released as a single in the UK

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KoyNlVQbUPc

Frida takes the lead on this one. The word beautiful is used so much in connection with ABBA songs and this one is no different. Great lyrics, a wonderful track, combining nostalgia and love - oh and Paris.

No.6 I Let The Music Speak (1981) Not released as a single in the UK

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nyfvl5L6JNU

Another track led by Frida, and one that shows her voice to the very maximum. From her soft delicate start, wonderfully accompanied by a piano, she steps up a gear with an orchestral backing - and the last 40 seconds or so simply raise the hairs on the back of your neck.

Status: offline 		So the last one this morning, before looking at the top 4 this evening. I wanted one up tempo number in the higher echelons and this is the track - from ABBA The Album - that makes way for it. Fun Fact: This song was released as a single with a B-side track that will feature later in this list.

No.5 The Name of The Game (1977) UK Singles chart highest position No.1

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iJ90ZqH0PWI

Both girls share the vocals here - Agnetha singing in a wonderfully dreamy manner - and Frida following suit. This shouldn't be outside the top 3....

No.4 Summer Night City (1978) UK Singles chart highest position No.5

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_d5dPYHi17k

A catchy up beat number - that apparently the band were not happy with as it didn't sound like ABBA. Sounds pretty damn good to me though

No.3 S.O.S (1975) UK Singles chart highest position No.6

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cvChjHcABPA

Nice piano intro, beautiful voice, sad toon. Just musical gold

No.2 The Winner Takes It All (1980) UK Singles chart highest position No.1 (of course)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iyIOl-s7JTU

Led by Agnetha, this track contains all the raw emotion of separation/divorce. Wonderfully sung, great lyrics. Sheer musical genius.

It takes something pretty special to beat this tear-jerker.....

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tm_z2qNJTGg

The lead this time is Frida. The opening piano, the glockenspielly type sound that runs through it, the cut glass voice, the sad, sad (and yet uplifting) words - its really very very simple; if this song doesn't beat you senseless and leave you an incoherent mess prostrate on the floor and begging for mercy then you have no soul. FACT.

Well at least Kanye West has made one decent record (there is another from the Great Gatsby but I don't know if that is one of his or if he just sings on it). But Bieber? No idea what he's done - apart from being famous for being famous.

I suspect my next top 10 or so will be the truly wonderful Arcade Fire.
