Arrival [Atlantic, 1977]
Since this is already the best-selling group in the universe, I finally have an answer when people ask me to name the Next Big Thing. What I wonder is how we can head them off at the airport. Plan A: Offer Bjorn and Benny the leads in Beatlemania (how could they resist the honor?) and replace them with John Phillips and Denny Doherty. Plan B: Appoint Bjorn head of the U.N. and Benny his pilot (or vice versa) and replace them with John Lennon and Paul McCartney. Plan C: Overexpose them in singing commercials. Plan D: Institute democratic socialism in their native land, so that their money lust will meet with the scorn of their fellow citizens. C

ABBA was amazing - instead of their songs having a hook, they'd have 3 or 4 hooks.
The Beatles and the Bee Gees were also able to do this, the Carpenters, Led Zeppelin, some Bieber songs.
Not many can do it but ABBA sure af did, no matter what genre.

This guy has had decades to pick up a guitar and learn or at least something yet he still hasn't. He's basically the equivalent of any random video essay Youtuber who is just ranting
