T.O.B. IS IN THE MOOD FOR DANCE
Tom O’Brien loves ABBA. We thought we just might come right out there and say that before anything else happens here. (HT: Bill.)
Later, O’Brien owned up to his ABBA addiction: “‘Dancing Queen’ is just hard to sit down to.”
Before ye cast any stones, consider two key facts. First, Tom O’Brien is a Marine, and therefore probably by category tougher than 98 percent of you currently not in ninja school or reading this on a laptop from the back of your donkey somewhere in the Hindu Kush as you travel in your duties as a Green Beret or SEAL. Even in aluminum foil loingerie (male version), he’s tougher than you are.
See that girl, watch that scene, diggin’ the Dancin’ Queen. Pic by Eagle Talon over at BC’s Scout board.
Second, “Dancing Queen” is a damn catchy song…no matter who’s covering it…
U2:
Salma and Sabina Agha in Hindi:
Diablo (wooo AH AH AH AH):
The original. And please, appreciate the men’s shirts. The video gets richer by the second if you do

@14, fyi real metalheads generally don’t pierce, they tat. Or at the least engage in some sort of facial hair displays.
And this woman Wing should be euthanized. Desecrating Elvis, the Beatles & AC/DC?? She touches Led Zep or early Metallica pre-black album & I hunt her down myself.

The amazing part is that Salma and Sabina can’t even speak Hindi. They learned the song phonetically.

I once went to a party in a house occupied by some tough looking metal heads with all kinds of piercings and scary tatoos. By far outpacing other bands in their impressive collection of Vinyl records? ABBA. And they were playing it on the iPod, too. It was strange.

Oh, and Sweden, lads. Sweden. As in Swedish women. Svenska flickor.
Your image = reality.

Those guys in ABBA invested wisely. And now they write operas and are considered national treasures in Sweden.
If only Roxette had been so lucky. Who knows, though? Perhaps there’s a chance for Robyn?
