Jónsi, the lead singer in Sigur Rós, once forgot the lyrics while performing with the band in France. He improvised and kept on singing in Icelandic “Oh sh*t, I forgot the lyrics, but that’s o.k. because I’m in France where no one understands me.

Disney originally wanted ABBA to do the music for The Lion King, but ABBA wasn’t available, so they went with Elton John.

In 2000, ABBA turned down $1 billion to do a 100 re-union tour.

Before ABBA made it big, they promised to hold a concert for their municipality in exchange for being allowed to rehearse in the cafeteria of a local school, but so far they haven’t held one and are yet to fulfill their promise.

ABBA’s costumes were colourful and elaborate specifically to get around Swedish tax law. If the costumes couldn’t be worn outside a performance, they could be considered tax deductible.

Sorry, Dianne, but, contrary to rumor, he never would have said that. He was way too fond of Ringo to have said something like that.

No course he didn't in serious tones...

The Bigger Picture with quotes can be that..

Think the rumours are always going to be for anybody in the lime light...

If my quotes were picked up in the flesh and put out there... I would have been stoned to death a million times over...:laughing:

The thing is, some people do take that seriously which is why I had to comment. To truth is, John quite admired Ringo's drumming as well as Paul's bass playing. Think he was a little angry with George at the end though (per the Playboy interview in 1980)
