ABBA
« on: July 10, 2008, 03:02:44 pm »
i was listening to dermot o'leary on radio 2 a few days ago (hey, the cd player in my car's broken, okay!) and a cover verion of ABBA's Super Trouper came on. it was 'unplugged' and sang by a soft voiced female artist. has anyone got any idea who it is becasue i'm dying to get hold of it now.

i know this is a long shot, but hey. any ideas would be helpful.

Was it this recording?
It says on his site that he played this one.

Sorry if this is wrong, wjp.

I had many a teenage, testosterone-laden moment over the two ABBA ladies.  Loulou's instructions forbid me from revealing more detail.

I am not an ABBA fan, despite people thinking I should be because of my age.  I find them a bit over-produced and just too jolly perfect. I like a bit of guts to my music. Still, I have to admit they were enormously talented.
Old but spicey!

I appreciate them more now than I did in my youth. The simply were not cool for a young boy to like.

But young at heart. Pham only sounds older than me because he is more sensible.
