    I hope it's only an "OCD-like personality" as opposed to having for real OCD. Because from what I've heard having honest to goodness for real diagnosed OCD is no fun at all. :(

    Got a handful of them.

    I personally don't consider them as Disco, Pop Muzik, but not Disco. Heck, even my old man liked them and he rarely strayed from Johnny Cash, Willie Nelson and Merle Haggard.

    And sorry I derailed this thread with my vinyl obsession.

    Cool stuff!

    Love Abba, Johnny and Merle! It's all good to me.

    Agnetha still looks and sounds great!

    Not in general, no...but that song and its album was. And before anyone asks, the title is French for "Do you want me?" And that is a fantastic hobby BTW, and the best part is you can listen to them on YouTube or something and don't have to worry about wrecking/scratching your actual discs!

    And I would so be putting this as my ring tone (the first one) if I ever joined the 21st century and felt any sort of real need/desire for a smartphone:

    BTW did you know that the NES video game Ikari Warriors has an ABBA code? :blush: Yes sir, when you're in the process of losing your last life just press A-B-B-A and you get to keep going! Gimmie Gimmie Gimmie more lives after dying...won't this code help me chase the Game Overs away? :blush:

    Hey don't sell Frida short! I love those cute gestures she did in some of the videos/concerts, such as whispering in Agnetha's ear and doing that little head dance in the above Gimmie video and that adorable kiss they gave each other at the end of that Pick a Bale of Cotton song! Awww... :) Not to mention she's now a Countess. :) For just one example (at 4:12)...

    My mother had me tested, lol. No it is more of an impulse buying habit and hoarding mentality than anything else.
