As picking 'Knowing Me, Knowing You' also gave us the opportunity to watch clips of Alan Partridge, as well as ABBA, we felt this was the way to go for this weeks blog. ABBA are also the stars of our flyer of course!
Knowing Me, Knowing You was released by Swedish super group ABBA and was number 1 in the UK for 5 weeks from 2nd April 1977, it became one of the groups most successful singles. It was one of the first ABBA songs to deal with the break up of a relationship, although it predates the divorce of the band members and so was not autobiographical unlike some of their later break up songs.
The song has been covered a great number of times, most excitingly by Right Said Fred (who knew??) on a German album which tied in to a TV mini series. We have tried to find a clip of this but to no avail. It is available to download but we thought that would be taking it a bit far! You can however hear a 30 second sample HERE so knock yourselves out!
As mentioned earlier, we happily used this as an excuse to watch 'Knowing Me, Knowing You with Alan Partridge' clips. If you haven't seen it for a while then it is definitely worth revisiting! To start you off we have posted a clip below of the very first episode...
And so back to ABBA. We have picked out a fantastic live version from a 1979 tour for you to enjoy:
We only wish we stocked the one shoulder body con outfits that the ABBA ladies are sporting here, WOW! We have, however, still got a bit of disco diva sparkle for you!
First up, a dazzling pale green sequin halter neck in size 8-10, team it with hot-pants or a mini skirt and knee highs and you would be right at home with ABBA or on the set of Saturday Night Fever for that matter...
Or perhaps for the more modest of you, or those not wanting to freeze in current cold weather (sigh, when will it end?!), then this shimmering long sleeved gold number might be more for you:
Size UK 12, team it with hot-pants and gold platform shoes!
We dare you not to enjoy a bit of ABBA :-)
