An AC and people typing.

Great song, released by Orchestral Manoeuvres In The Dark (OMD) in 1981. Very well produced video, though would've liked to post their appearance performing it on Top Of The Pops, but it's not available on YouTube at the moment. OMD were from Liverpool.

Not my favourite video of this song (I'd have offered the bearded guy £1000 to go off to the pub for a few minutes while the performance was taking place), but still great stuff. Just love the crazy outfit worn by lead singer Liz Mitchell.

my husband snoring - it's own sort of music.

This one made no impression on the charts, at least in the UK, though it's an excellent song. It was only when Mamma Mia was released later in 1975 that Abba really arrived.

EDIT: It actually got to number one in several European countries and elsewhere, but only reached 38 in the British chart.

Another little known and massively underrated Abba song, as evidenced by the fact that it seems to be impossible to find a live video version, or even a mimed one.

Yet another relatively obscure Abba song, recorded before their 1974 Eurovision win. Interesting also because Agnetha was on maternity leave here, and is replaced by Inger Brundin. Annifrid looks rather different too, partly because of her hairstyle.

Telephones are on my mind. The pointlessness of me owning one.

LOL. Topically, essentially the same song DeepHour just posted.
