It's painful, but if it helps to shut Heston up...
This or if we continually deny ABBA songs for this whole thing. Hard to say which would be more satisfying...

Either way I win.

SOS is on another level, an oustanding piece of pop music that encapsulates the genius of ABBA - despair and misery wrapped in delirious melody.

How do you win if your choices don't?

Very much so. Still reeling that Dancing Queen was beaten by that much inferior Breeders song in the last round.
There's a tiny, tiny hopeful part of me that says you guys are running a Kaufmanesque long con on the board

Because I will be able to continually nominate and talk about ABBA.

ABBA all the way. As much as I love the Pogues track it is too 3 ABBA therefore on another level..
You need to calm down on your ABBA enthusiasm I am getting worried about you!!
I blame myself for getting him hooked on Agnetha.

Heston’s commitment to the bit is making me dislike ABBA on principle.

I know im not typical but I can't imagine a scenario where all the other choices are so bad that I would pick ABBA.

Ah, I see. I suspect there's a not-insignificant contingent here that would put up with that just to see you lose the votes again and again. So I guess everyone would win?
