Also I do like the idea that there is a Swedish girl pop duo called West End Girls who exist purely to cover Pet Shop Boys singles. One of them even does a Chris Lowe and just stands around looking sulky.
I phoned Ikea the other day in a foul mood because they had delivered the wrong stuff to me, and they put me on hold with Abba singing Lay All Your Love On Me, and it just didn't seem worth staying angry. There has never been a better accent for pop. (Except possibly Baccara, who have never sounded that Spanish to me.) Also Neil Hannon wrote a good song about Sweden. It's here on YouTube, but with a poor video some filmschool student made.
