There’s another layer to this - actual ABBA only just got into the top ten with their 2 songs

There's only one way to stop Steps - buy their album and go on every single Steps forum and share the popcorn under the name "Popcorn Maker" so no one has to buy it! Job done.

I went with that option too, after going for the LP+7" option for the later performance yesterday. I've just elected to pick them up so will wait until I travel down on the day. Nothing can go wrong with picking them up I'm sure

I said previously be lovely if the manics finally got their number 1 for the band. I got to admit learning steps is their competition I'm happy if they get number 1 or fail to steps, it's a very manics thing to fail to steps, not once but twice
