I've been wondering what we're supposed to be hailing Empress Zelda with.

Is it hobnobs?
Individually, or the whole packet?

The complete works of Abba? Oh. No. The complete works of anti-Abba: automagically cancels out any Abba music in earshot. Oh. Sorry; wrong thread.

What? WHAT??? What is with the Abba hate? They were clean, wholesome bouncy, upbeat and sounded great. They didn't stick their tongues out two feet, true, and didn't encourage drug usage, or devil worship.......so why, why???

Abba's big breakthrough came in one of the annual Eurovision Song Contests.

Their winning song was 'Waterloo' - which possibly didn't endear them to the French audience , but went down rather well this side of the Channel.

And established the Eurovision Song Contest on TV, which has resulted in a selection of "songs" and "news items" once a year from bands that would not normally even be described as "novelty".

it's nothing to do with waterloo, specifically. it's their whole repertoire.

note the use of quotation marks. quite justifiable, too. indispensable, in fact.
