  ABBA GOLD GREATEST HITS October 28, 2008 LOVE THIS CD. WE PLAY IT ALL THE TIME. THE PRICE WAS GREAT FOR ALL THE ENTERTAINMENT THAT WE HAVE GOTTEN.
  ABBA GOLD October 28, 2008 I bought this for my sister's Christmas gift. She LIKES ABBA a lot. The CD is filled with their Best Songs from Dancing Queen, Mama Mia, to Fernando all in one CD. If you Like ABBA but don't want to get a bunch of CDs this CD is perfect.
  Fantastic CD! October 20, 2008 This CD is fantastic! Enjoyable to listen to, even better to exercise to! I ordered this CD after seeing the movie Mama Mia! and I am thrilled with it.
  nice collection of songs. good sound quality October 18, 2008 Very good album. Lots of great songs, including some unexpected ones I hadn't known were by ABBA ("Take a Chance On Me", first heard that song on The Office; and "Gimme! Gimme! Gimme!", has that great intro you hear a lot).
The sound quality is pretty solid too, especially for them being somewhat older songs.
  Beyond "Mama Mia" October 15, 2008 If you came to this music through the Broadway show or the movie, don't stop there -- check out the originals.
ABBA's success in Europe grew after their song "Waterloo" won the Eurovision Song Contest in the early '70's (in the "Dark Ages" before American Idol / Pop Idol).
This music isn't...famous for depth or anything, but the gentleness of songs like "I Have A Dream" or "Fernando" still sounds pretty sweet to me, decades after I first heard it. The dance tracks are still danceable, and I've always enjoyed the way this group manages to make the words they use a part of the soundscape of the song (voice as...almost a percussion instrument).
This version of their greatest hits was, for me, the best bang for the buck.
