I suspect my next top 10 or so will be the truly wonderful Arcade Fire.

With your musical tastes so "eloquently" spammed on this thread, I fear "Dumpster Fire" is a more apt contribution of yours. [:'(]

How about the Top 20 progressive rock songs?

Well that ABBA is not to everyone's taste I accept - though is perhaps more than a little surprising given the genius of the compositions and the beauty of the voices - but to not like Arcade Fire either?

Goodness [X(]

But never mind. An Officially Official Arcade Fire Top (20?) will follow shortly.

Well at least Kanye West has made one decent record

A few big questions arises from this;
-who supplies the wood
-who brings the torch
-who brings the stake
-where do we burn Warspite

I realised this morning that I have not got an ABBA playlist on my Ipod. I know roight? [:D]

Anyway, I intend to rectify that glaring omission by selecting 10-12 tracks. From comments recently I know that this will be an eagerly anticipated event so stay tuned as I count down the official bestest ABBA tracks of all time [:)]

Edit: Yeah right. 10-12? Impossible to whittle down less than 20.

I notice that you succeeded in getting ten ABBA tracks last time you made the list.

1. I Wonder (The Album)
2. The Name of the Game (The Album)
3. Last Summer (Super Trouper)
4. S.O.S (ABBA)
5. The Winner Takes It All (Super Trouper)
6. Eagle (The Album)
7. Summer Night City - (Greatest Hits volume II - why was this classic not out on an album?)
8. As Good As New (Voulez-Vous))
9. My Love and My Life (Arrival)
10. The Visitors (The Visitors)

Well that was tough! Soooo many incredible tracks......

Well this time I thought I'd do it properly - and add the music for each too.

So in two years the number 1 remains number 1 [:)] Yeah, got to be happy with that [:)]

Yes... well... while a nice list I can not agree on that you did in properly. Last time I muttered that you missed two great tunes but it was maybe understandable since it was only a top ten list. But with a top 20 list it is almost scandalous that Fernando and Chiquitita is not included in the list.

[:D]

I thought someone might be up in arms over Dancing Queen (just can't listen to that song anymore) and maybe Fernando, but Chiquitita... not so much.

It suddenly occurred to me that Dancing Queen, Waterloo, and Fernando are the only Abba songs I know. Perhaps my low opinion is due to inadequate sample size (said as a lightning bolt struck him)?

Well that's why I added the links. Hope you get a chance to listen to some of these. I would be amazed if there aren't one or two you find you like.

Okay here we go with an Arcade Fire The Officially official Top 12

Apparently in particle physics, supersymmetry (SUSY) is a proposed type of spacetime symmetry that relates two basic classes of elementary particles: bosons, which have an integer-valued spin, and fermions, which have a half-integer spin.

But that's all cobblers because supersymmetry is the first of the Arcade Fire offerings. The song is about 11 minutes long but for all intents and purposes stops at about 5 minutes. I have no idea what they were thinking of for the next 6 minutes - but they were obviously in arty farty mode (not, I am pleased to say, a sign of things to come). Anyway, that does not take away from the excellent opening 5 which is all you need to listen to.

No.12 Supersymmetry (Album: Reflektor - 2013)

I know you're living in my mind
It's not the same as being alive
Supersymmetry
Supersymmetry

Next up we have one of two tracks from their second album Neon Bible. God knows what it means but the track is great, featuring a wonderful organ intro.

No.11 Intervention (Album: Neon Bible - 2007)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZO7ZWfvCjBE

Working for the Church while your family dies
You take what they give you and you keep it inside
Every spark of friendship and love will die without a home
Hear the soldier groan, "We'll go at it alone"

Into the top 10 and we kick this off with the first offering from the truly outstanding Suburbs album. This track evidences one of the things I most like about many of Arcade Fire's songs - the song changes direction at least once. In this case the last 1 minute 30 seconds picks up the bass as the drums kick in and the song builds to its crescendo.

No. 10 Suburban War (Album: The Suburbs 2010)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cNdqoQWz34E

But you started a war
That you can't win
They keep erasing all the streets we grew up in

Now the music divides
Us into tribes
You choose your side and I'll choose my side
