Super Trouper should be Top 10 though.

How slow am I? I totally thought this would have started by now. I'll be back in two.

Gurl, Chiquitita deserves that #1 spot, if not Top 3.

20. When All Is Said and Done
 |
HIGHEST: 10
(Euphoria, Xorev, Evun)
LOWEST: 3
(Brando, Mikal)
AVERAGE: 7.26
Absolutely lovely. What a classy breakup song. I love that there is no blaming or bitterness -- how often does that happen in tracks about relationships ending? Beautiful lyrics. Even that one line about not being too old for sex. 10 |

18. Honey, Honey
 |
HIGHEST: 10
(Flashing Lights, Pyanga, Xorev, SupremeGoddess)
LOWEST: 3
(Evun)
AVERAGE: 7.66
A very average track. I feel like songs like Honey Honey are what people who try to copy ABBA often end up making. 3 |

Not seething over any of the most recent eliminations, but "The Visitors" is fabulous and should have been at least top twenty.

16. Super Trouper
 |
HIGHEST: 10
(Evun, SupremeGoddess, Gagasm, ClassicMainstream, True Skarlet, Pyanga, Xorev)
LOWEST: 0
(True Skarlet)
AVERAGE: 7.84
One of my favorite songs. There's something so honest about it. ABBA has retained their poppy melodies, but the lyrics reveal just how much all the fame and pressure has affected them. Heartbreaking to think of how sad they were towards the end at times. 10 |

It's good, but not one of ABBA's best. Given how famous it is, I would have expected it to make the top ten, but this is fine.
