"Gimme Gimme Gimme (A Man After Midnight)" - ABBA





Birthday gal slash pop goddess Agnetha Fältskog today turns 60; formerly one-quarter of Sweden's own ABBA - along with Björn Ulvaeus, Anni-Frid Lyngstad, and Benny Andersson - she later had a less successful solo career. Still, how does one top the massive success of a group like ABBA?

Gimme! Gimme! Gimme! (A Man After Midnight) originally appeared on a 1979 greatest hits compilation, as well as on their later album ABBA Gold, and is a must-have for ABBA fans; it was later, of course, heavily sampled as the basis for Madonna's massive hot single Hung Up.

  1. STRAIGHT GUY FYI:

    1) She's the blonde.

    2) Her name is prounounced An-YETTA; only fans of Felicia Jolly-Goodfellow pronounce it Ag-NEETHA.
