...and a song for today:
ABBA Mamma Mia
uploader / channel: Craig Gagné
Play!
The unstoppable appeal of ABBA is interesting -- reading listener thoughts under these videos on You Tube, I came across one series of comments that were all in languages other than English. Spanish, Italian, some I didn't recognize, some that used an alphabet different from ours: characters that were not Chinese or Japanese -- something else, maybe Russian, or an eastern European language...?
In the ones that used our alphabet, even if you couldn't read it, you could still tell that they enthusiastically love these songs! Like -- they type in their language, and then have the emojis, "100 100" and a picture of a thumbs-up, etc. It's kind of funny, and joyful.
Language barriers cannot hold back the euphoria.

* 2022, still playing in clubs / bars, and the dance floor is hopping! Everyone loves the ABBA classics (and some secretly love them, but will never admit it)
