So now you know. I have a love/hate relationship with ABBA. They're very singable, but they ruined my German career.

Well, really, I don't have any strong opinions about ABBA one way or another. I just wanted to tell that story and blame her one more time.
In this case, GraceKrispy, there's only one option for you to vote for: GERMANY!
btw, we'd be happy to also see you in the German lounge

Thank GOD the swedish music exports have improved so much since the days of Abba, Roxette and Ace of Base.

These days we actually produce some decent bands/music :)
