Does anyone here NOT own Abba Gold?
Just wondered as it's such a big-seller and seems to cross age-groups and be the CD everyone seems to own.
If you don't own it then why not?

I don't own it.
When growing up I got that sick of hearing ABBA and the constant 10 yearly revivals to the point of Nausea. My uncle also doesn't own it for the opposite reason, a massive fan he owns their back catalogue and therefore has no point in owning it. |

Our family doesn't own it simply because, believe it or not, some people don't like Abba.

Yep, I think the question should be:
Does anyone here own Abba Gold?

Not met one yet
![]() ![]() I see what the OP's getting at though, there's certain albums that are so famous/popular that it seems like pretty much everyone has a copy. Greatest Hits by Queen and The Fame by Lady Gaga are good examples.

We have copies of their other Greatest Hits, but not ABBA Gold, although my cousin burnt my parents off a copy years ago. So half and half, yes... (sorta) lol.

I always preferred More Abba Gold. I dunno why but I think the better songs were on the follow up.

I don't own it, not being an Abba fan, although I did buy a copy for my dad's birthday once.

We have two copies in this house. Had to buy another as my daughter nicked mine when she was about 8 and got her first hi-fi. They were singing Mamma Mia in their school play and she needed to practice.

In the mid 80's it was Brothers In Arms by Dire Straits, to test the new CD player, as it was a digital recording so sounded good.

Funny you should say that. I have always thought it as well. Everyone seems to have it
