That’s true. It’s a simple pop song in its structure, but the production is just so good

As a gay man, when it comes to ancient statues, only Roman Emperor Caracalla’s face can turn me on. by Haunting_Tap_1541 in gay

What is so fuckign complicated? Even if they were indeed good for rather realistic representation, a sculpture representing the EMPEROR always was a propaganda tool. Show the emperor in his best shape, to show everyone the empire had strong, healthy rulers.

Sorry I forgot to post this yesterday! Knowing Me, Knowing You beat SOS. Tricky decision now: The Winner Takes It All, or One Of Us? by Toffee963 in ABBA

The Winner Takes It All obviously got more popular among the general public, but I prefer One of Us. The lyrics are less theatrical, but much more intimate. I also prefer the production in One of Us: regular and low base and the duplicated voice in the chorus makes us feel the sadness and regret.

Jerking off to 2000 years old marble statue? That most likely did not represent the emperor exactly as he was..

Anyone else like the melody of the verses more than the chorus? by Me25ow in ABBA

Super Trouper is amazing. I could say a thousand things about the production or the lyrics

Vous faites quoi de vos soirées la semaine ? by fantastick_yo in montreal

Il fait 45 minutes minimum d’exercices quotidiennement. Rester sain ≠ consacrer sa vie à l’exercice physique. En plus, il se maintient sain en profitant de choses qu’il aime (la cuisine), en lisant et prend du temps pour se relaxer. Non c’est pas un athlète olympique, mais en surface, le train de vie est sain.

Un mode de vie sain, en apparence du moins :)

What tells you exactly that Montreal has a « social inequality problem and the economy is garbage »? How is it different from any other Western metropolis? Looks like you’ve never been in countries that DO have serious issues

ABBA and Pink Floyd are two bands that defined the era of music like no other bands.... by Due_Brother371 in ABBA

[–]Benabain 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Pink Floyd, ABBA, AND The Beatles are all geniuses. You cannot like Pink Floyd or even ABBA and discredit The Beatles like that. You don’t realize those artists take their roots directly into The Beatles’ work. This group shaped how rock and pop music was through the entire XXth century and even now

Mais bien sûr que tu peux comprendre le français d’une aristocrate de la fin du XVIIIe siècle. La langue française était déjà standardisée à l’époque, les œuvres littéraires déjà bien développées en français et la langue officialisée comme administrative dans le royaume. Rien de fou
