[kj] projectile vomiting

[Alex Smith]

I have an mp3 of the Sisters of Mercy covering "Gimmie Gimmie Gimmie (A Man After Midnight)" as well. I don't mind the originals either. Once again --- better Abba than, say, Michael Jackson or Phil Collins or whomever.

For whatever reason whatever their quality, it doesn't show until someone
"from the other side" do a cover of any of their songs. I absolutely do
not like Abba, never have never will, but I can enjoy the occasional cover. 
I do hope KJ never will do an Abba cover though. I'd say the risk is very
very small.

Anyone heard the Abba cover "Gimme gimme" with swedish band Leather Nun?
It's almost a joke, but nevertheless brilliant.
