So here's my No. 9. A bit predictable, yes but it's such a good song. I found this tidbit on Wiki about this song that I really enjoyed reading.
""SOS" has a number of musical fans: John Lennon had declared that it was one of his favourite pop songs, and Pete Townshend in particular said it is probably his favourite pop song. Ray Davies also said that he was taken with the song after seeing the group perform it on the television show Seaside Special.[5]"
I really love this live version since it's sung with more emotion and the sound quality is very, very rich. And the Australian crowd makes it even more live - thanks to all of them.
No. 9 S.O.S
This song has a quite a few cover versions but I liked the following by the British rock band 'Cutting Crew' and the German metal band 'At Vance'. I'd say though that they don't do justice to the chorus as Abba's far superior. Of course it's the original anyway and nothing can beat that anyway. I do think ABBA's chorus is the hardest thing to replicate.
