Is this Abba? The women sound like it, but the men don't.

hmm, you're right.  Could be from the Mamma Mia movie soundtrack?

Question apropos of nothing... how many post-1999 songs have made it to 10@10? Almost by defintion they'd have to be specialty sets. And are there any third millennium Katrinas?

Is this the Scissor Sisters' debut on 10@10?

I think so...since there aren't too many 10@10 opportunities for songs in the 2000's.
BOSing this!

"Mama, I can blow myself." I bet he never leaves the house  ;)

Great sounding set. Listening but  nothing to really add comment wise.
Hope everyone has a great weekend!

This version of "Mama Told Me Not To Come" is NTM. Another BOS.... this set has far exceeded my expectations.

Don't know if its an official 10at10 rule, but they've been songs 10 years old or older.

No, "Does Your Mother Know" was the forgotten follow-up single to "Dancing Queen."  Only male lead vocal in their catalog, AFAIK.

It's Randy Newman's original -- at least I assume it came out before TDN. He wrote it, doncha know.

I would have preferred Tom Jones' cover of it.

Ahhh, I should have mentioned I'd like to hear "Mama Tried", Dead version. My old band used to play this.

Inspired choice: cover of Ernie K-Doe's "Mother-in-Law."
