A friend refers to ABBA's lyrics as 'brain cleanser.' If you ever have some other voice stuck repeating in your head, you start singing ABBA and then the other stuff leaves. Of course, then you 're stuck with ABBA, and might be for years.
The resurgence of ABBA, "stuff white people like," and, hell, Garrison Keillor has to mean Obama is going to win the Presidency with his vacuous feel-good sparkly vanilla speeches. This election is about white people forgetting what bastards they truly are. Enough with the torture, already, they don't even want to think about it. Just tell us how to get W's voice out of our heads!
Give us the brain cleanser!
There was something in the air that night
The starssss so bright, Obama
They were shining down for you and me
For liberty
Obama
