“Gimme Gimme Gimme (A Man After Midnight)” was released in 1979 and peaked at #3 in the UK Charts. Despite not reaching #1 in the UK, this is one of ABBA's signature tunes, being covered by the A*Teens, and sampled by Madonna on Hung Up in 2005, one of only two officially sanctioned sample of an ABBA songs to date (the other being the Fugees Rumble In The Jungle, sampling Name Of The Game). Boo at 11 of you voting this gem out :(


“Gimme, Gimme, Gimme” who got 11 votes, tying until the last minute with “Take A Chance On Me” with 10 votes. Close!
"Lay All Your Love On Me" had 6 votes, “The Winner Takes It All” and "Mamma Mia" tied on 3 votes and "Dancing Queen" had just 1 vote.

The next round could be another close thing! The voting will be open for about a week.

Dancing Queen, it is good, but the others are better.

Aww, 'Gimme! Gimme! Gimme! (A Man After Midnight)' is my second favourite ABBA song </3 at least my favourite is still here.

 

Going for 'Dancing Queen' again!

Gutted Gimme Gimme Gimme is out already! :(

 

Voted ‘Take A Chance On Me’ again

The Winner Takes It All

have we all forgotten Mamma Mia is still here. get rid!

Lay All Your Love On Me

Lay All Your Love On Me to go next....although I was tempted to vote to much over-played Dancing Queen...

Please let 'Dancing Queen' be out before 'Lay All Your Love On Me'. Pleeeeease. x

Finally, in round 15, I can move on to voting for a third different song. It also means the term “least favourite” now applies.

Still Mamma Mia.

No way I LOVE gimme gimme gimme a man after midnight won't somebody help me chase the shadows away...

 

Underrated gem of a hit.

 

If lay all your love on me doesn't win I might cry :wub:

 

 

I love Gimme more than any of what's left ! I vote to get rid of The Winner Takes It All.

I’ll be closing this later - any last minute votes? :P
