in the winter snow my songs would keep you from the cold

excuse me for opening this (now the 3rd one concerning it) new thread about Agnetha's new album, but i think it deserves it.
i LOOOOVE it! only the 4th store i went to had a copy, the first 3 ran out! she must be selling big time here! no wonder, If I Thought You'd Ever Change Your Mind is on the radio constantly (btw- try the remixes, they're great).
till now, her solo offerings were utterly crappy (aka as "the buckingham syndrome") but this one's a different story. i think her decision to make a covers album was a bright one, it's been ages since she recorded so beautifully written songs. it's quite old fashioned and i can't say it's innovative in any way. in fact, it's far from being a masterpiece in many ways, but hey, that's her essence, she's not a musician, but she IS a superb interpreter and she still sounds and looks excellent. yes. Agnetha is the G spot of senimentality.
