Honey, Honey - ABBA

Honey, Honey - ABBA
2:55
Waterloo, 1975
Written by Benny Andersson, Björn Ulvaeus, & Stig Anderson

A typically catchy bubblegum hit from the Swedish singles machine.  Lyrically, this song is very much of its time: the ladies prostrating themselves before a well-known "love machine" who warns them to stay grounded or he'll hurt them.  Musically, though, it's perfect pop, with the women's vocals managing to sound amped up and sex-kitten at the same time.  On another note, why did ABBA record so many songs with repeated-word titles?
