In these dire times for fun only.. your Album.. You can only take one track from each of the 8 studio albums and one bonus track from any of the other tracks that did not appear on the original album. some are a lot easier to choose than others, some a nightmare ... My 9 tracks are.. 1. Ring Ring 2. Dance ( while the music still goes on ). 3. I’ve Been Waiting For You 4. Dancing Queen 5. Hole In Your Soul 6. Kisses Of Fire 7. Lay All Your Love On Me 8. The Visitors Bonus. Summer Night City Have a go , it’s something to do...keep posting, it’s only fun, and keep Safe..  |

Nice little idea! First thought - plonk down all your favourites - instantly rejected, since this selection will constitute an album in effect, and the tracks will have to compliment and contrast, to form a pleasing(ish) whole. On that basis also, I'm not going to sequence them chronologically, I'm going to try and go for a bit of tonal blending:
1. Eagle (painful, having to rule out TNOTG, HIYS and Move On from selection!)
2. Another Town, Another Train
3. SOS
4. The King Has Lost His Crown
5. Knowing Me, Knowing You
6. Suzy-Hang-Around (Dance (WTMSGO) is the best on Waterloo I think, but I can't integrate that here, so I'll go for this personal favourite Benny lead vocal track)
7. Me And I (selects itself as the stand-out from an otherwise notably lacklustre album)
8. Slipping Through My Fingers
Bonus: Lovelight Just remembered about the existence of the unjustly maligned Crazy World (possibly Bjorn's best lead vox, in that he sounds invested, and the arrangement is very nice - really like that little repeating piano figure of Benny's).

1 - I Saw It In The Mirror Dear God! What's possessing you?! Could say the same to you two with Dance (While The Music Still Goes On) 😂 I just love I Saw It In The Mirror. It’s massively underrated in my opinion. I either chose that or Disillusion. I chose I Saw It In The Mirror because I wanted too. |

I suppose that's true enough (thanks for taking that crack of mine in the right spirit). I thought about going with Disillusion, but while it has a lovely start, it quickly runs out of road.

I might not necessarily put I Saw It In The Mirror as my one track from its album, but I agree with The Rubber Ball Man, in that it’s the track everyone claims to love to hate, but it really doesn’t deserve it. You’ve got Agnetha and Frida coming in here and there and I enjoy those types of songs. Like Two For The Price of One, sometimes the women truly shine when they’re not centre-stage. They can quietly steel the show. If I was to do this I’d have to break the rules... I couldn’t mix singles with album tracks so I’d have to do one list for each. Is that allowed? |

In case of some of the albums it's like asking to choose your favourite child but here we go... 1. He Is Your Brother 2. Dance (While The Music Still Goes On) 3. I've Been Waiting For You (it's getting harder) 4. Dancing Queen (so many candidates) 5. Hole In Your Soul (don't make me choose just one!!!) 6. Angeleyes 7. The Winner Takes It All (I was on the verge of selecting The Piper but chron would surely agree that Agnetha's ultimate vocal performance can't be left off 8. The Visitors (tough one) bonus: The Day Before You Came |
