I am sooooooo sorry.

Cheers - I still have to leave pubs when 'Dancing Queen' or 'Voulez vouz' comes on the jukebox! Either that or hide in the toilet til it's over..

Not Now Neil sounds like you need to carry a set of earplugs in your pocket.

Good idea Flashback - I could use them when talking to the girlfriend too!

Not Now Neil, I just want to say thanks. That stupid "Voulez Vous" song was in my head till I went to bed, and I must've dreamt about it because I woke up with it still in my head. AAAAHHHHHH!!!!!!!!

Again, in need of a sticking-out-tongue emoticon!

Oops - sorry about that!!

It could have been worse though - it could have been 'Super Trooper'

Oh - I hope I haven't done it again!

Both of my parents brainwashed me with Meddle and all later PF until TFC.

They went through a bad phase of Meat Loaf (even seeing him live on the Deadringer tour)

What you might call "Classic Country" music...Oooooooooold (even in the seventies) music by guys with names like Webb Pierce, George Jones, Donna Fargo, Tammy Wynette, Hank Williams SENIOR...I think you guys get the picture. The kind of music that from the first note, the entire song screams "I'M A HICK!!!!!"

Mosespa,me to,my dad had every tear-in-your-beer song out there(I'm talking from the 40s-70s).That shit can drive a person crazy if you listen to it everyday.

My mum was listening to Nana Mouskouri (who I have no recollection of, I just remember it was AWFUL) and Abba

, while my dad was listening to Queen and The Who. Can't stand Queen now, but I love Brian May's guitarin'

I'm not afraid to admit i love ABBA,they have one of they greatest song writing teams ever,up there alongside Lennon and McCartney,Waters and Gilmour!!!
they have more sing along songs than the floyd ever made,and even those people who say they don't like ABBA know the words.
