I Don't Want to Talk About the Things We've Gone Through

Today's group is thought of mainly as a 70's group, and with good reason. The majority of their hits came in the 70's, but the group did release a couple of albums in the early 80's, one of which produced today's video feature. It's the highly successful Swedish group of Bjorn, Benny, Agnetha, and Anni-Frid ("Frida") known collectively as ABBA with their last U.S. top 10 hit from the year 1980. It's a bitter break-up song and we can see that Agnetha is not happy during the whole video. Here is "The Winner Takes It All"...
