"Chiquitita" and "Lay All Your Legend on Me" made it to the Top 10!

'Chiquitita' is so touching, wouldn't mind it being #1. But being real prolly 'Dancing Queen', 'Gimme! Gimme! Gimme! (A Man After Midnight)' or 'Mamma Mia' will get it.

Not all the songs One Of Us, Super Trouper, Honey Honey leaving when I all gave them a 10.  I got again 8 out of 10 right that I thought were leaving. I Wish Gimme! Gimme! Gimme! (A Man After Midnight) and Waterloo were replaced with One Of Us and Super Trouper though.

Here's how I rated the top 10 and the order in which I would like them to end:
1. Chiquitita - 10
2. Fernando - 10
3. The Winner Takes It All - 10
4. Mamma Mia - 9,5
5. Take A Chance On Me - 9,5
6. Lay All Your Love On Me - 9
7. SOS - 9
8. Dancing Queen - 8
9. Waterloo - 7,5
10. Gimme! Gimme! Gimme! (A Man After Midnight) - 7
I would be happy with either Fernando or Chiquitita to take the #1 spot, I obviously should have rated Dancing Queen higher, but I gave it a lower rating in the hope it wouldn't make the predictable number one. But let's see what happens.

I'm back bitches.
Spent 13 hours traveling to my hometown way up North in Sweden and now I have even worse Internet. I would appreciate it, Evun, if you didn't reveal the rankings so quickly this time. It's the finale after all, ain't it?

They're amazing. A story about war and it's so beautiful. Easy 10.
I was so afraid Fernandooooo
We were young and full of life
And none of us prepared to die
And I'm not ashamed to say
The roar of guns and cannons
Almost made me cry

It's so fun to say "Chiquitita." And the sentiment is darling. And that piano bit at the end is great. 10 |

Fernando and Chiquitita, which are my favourite ABBA songs leaving after each other and not even making Top 5, while the mess Gimme! Gimme! Gimme! is still around? I'm done.
