Swedish music groups
This may be blasphemous to some, but I think Ace of Base was better than Abba. While Abba pumped out a lot of hits for a longer time, the few hits Ace of Base had were off the charts better than any of Abba's garbage.

Two Words - Dancing Queen.
And Five More Words - Take a Chance on Me And according to my sources, it should have been "Du er den en den där er full av crap". Get it right. |

But can anyone beat Roxette's power ballad, 'It must have been love'...Swedish music is beautiful.
You are full of crap is a difficult phrase to translate literally over to Swedish...you could just say: Du har mycket skit. That doesn't truly get the point across, but american missionaries would get the point you are trying to make. It would also get you a one day suspension from cougarboard if LiveCoug was online. |

I don't know where Abba falls in the scheme of greatest groups ever, I just know they're about 10,000 spots higher than Ace of Base.
Musical composition, musicianship, singing, variety of musical influences, etc. It's not even close. P.S. I don't own any Abba music. |
