for me were good only 4:
1 look sharp
2 pearls of passion
3 the visitors (abba)
4 live (abba)

I have always wanted to buy ABBA’s The Visitors! I have only Gold & More Gold from the group, and as the singles from The Visitors (eg The Day Before You Came and Under Attack) are just diamonds, I wonder if the other tracks are worth the buy?
Rich-UK said on April 27, 2004 21:20:
@ animalkingdom: The Day Before You Came & Under Attack are not singles from The Visitors. They were afterwards and were not released on any album around the time of the single releases. One Of Us and Head Over Heels are singles from The Visitors, Abba’s last studio album. (Under Attack is a really fantastic POP song!) All the best, Rich

“when all is said and done” is other well-know song from visitors album...
i love “slipping through my fingers” and “soldiers” that was not released as singles, but they are 2 of my fav abba songs...

such a list should also include
Depeche Mode - Black Celebration (and maybe even Speak & Spell - a much underrated recording, I think)
Sting - Nothing Like The Sun
Pet Shop Boy - Behaviour
The Police - Synchronicity
The Waterboys - This Is The Sea
Simple Minds - New Gold Dream
