Yesterday I found out that my best friend thinks that ABBA is just noise. I would have told him that he has no taste, but he already knows that, since I must have told him that approximately 500 times already.
This may be heresy but my least favorite song from The Dark Side of the Moon was arguably the biggest hit - "Money". Just never cared for it, Great Gig in the Sky and Time were my favs
On the other hand, I mostly agree with your friend here. Maybe not noise, but about as flavorful and memorable as a stick of baseball card gum.Yesterday I found out that my best friend thinks that ABBA is just noise.

Heresy or not I mostly agree. Not quite to "least favorite," but there are better tracks for sure. Can't claim to really have a favorite either, though Time would be a good candidate. Solid album, start to finish.

Well, the music is upbeat and catchy, even when the lyrics are about martial upset and divorce.
You almost certainly know more about Fleetwood Mac than I do.

Like Fleetwood Mac?
Great group... The Chain made it into the 2nd Guardians of the Galaxy
Indeed a great group. I dunno if they fit the "lyrics about marital upset and divorce" part. That was more their lifestyle than their lyrical theme. Talk about a soap opera in the greatest traditions of a rock and roll concert tour. Lindsay Buckingham is a candidate on my 'greatest guitarist ever' ballot, for sure.
"Dreams" and "Go your own way" were Stevie's and Lindsey's songs about their breakup from different ends.
I just googled the release date of that album, and in March of 1973, I was 9 years old and not into anything remotely like that. I was living with my dad's girlfriend's family, and the oldest daughter was into Terry Jacks - obsessed, actually, and I have "Seasons in the Sun" impressed into my brain even now, because she figured out how to play it on the piano and did not care that anyone else might be trying to sleep (she had a habit of practicing either early in the morning or after the two younger kids - one of whom was me - were in bed).This is reasonable, but we are talking about Pink Floyd's Dark Side of the Moon album. You didn't have to like it, but for someone your age, which is approximately my age, to not be familiar with it is almost (not quite, but almost) in "who are these Beatles of which you speak?" territory.
I make references to Jimmy Buffett lyrics all the time, assuming that no one is going to notice since he has two hit records to show for a lifetime of recording, but DSotM is kind of a cultural icon that was practically inescapable at the time.
I like ABBA; whatever the lyrics are, the melodies always cheer me up.Yesterday I found out that my best friend thinks that ABBA is just noise. I would have told him that he has no taste, but he already knows that, since I must have told him that approximately 500 times already.

No. No. NO!
Alex Lifeson should be on your "Greatest Guitarists Ever" ballot. What is wrong with you? Lindsay Buckingham is just adequate, not a musical superpower.
I'm no fan of ABBA, but Waterloo was and will remain a good song.Yesterday I found out that my best friend thinks that ABBA is just noise. I would have told him that he has no taste, but he already knows that, since I must have told him that approximately 500 times already.

The anthropologist/archaeologist part of me cringes at this idea.
While it would be great to see all the ancient buildings and monuments in their original form, it's going to have to wait until someone invents time travel.

Hes wrong, its not just noise, its deeply irritating noise.
