"Hi! I'm called Samantha McVelia! I have the cd of ABBAMANIA! I think that this cd is quite cooool!!! My mam likes Abba alot! So she has me liking it to! We think that the ABBAMANIA cd is great! But, sometimes when i listen to the ABBAMANIA cd then an Abba cd, i think that the people singing on the ABBAMANIA cd is better!"
Typical...

"What is it about the musical groups that cover Abba that suck all the life out of the songs? I actually really enjoy most of the artists on this album...when they are not butchering Abba. None of these singers have anything similar to the real vocal depth that Agnetha and Frida had, and there are boring dance mixes of already originally strong dance tracks. There ARE some decent 'tributes' on the album, but you may as well just pop in the real Abba: more enjoyment, less wishing for better production value."
Great covers of ABBA

"I don't normally like ABBA covers. Really, what is better than the original? But I have to say that I really am enjoying this CD. I am not sure if I have a favorite as so many of them are just plain good. I have not heard of most of these singers/groups. The Corrs version of "The Winner Takes it All" is very clean and melodic. I love Culture Club's version of V.V. It is everything you expect of Boy George: light, fun, playful, but not a song to underestimate. ABBA songs are not easy to sing well. Other favorites are "I Know Him So Well." And "I Have a Dream." I am glad I took a chance on this CD."
