| I have noticed that bits and bobs of this album seem to be referencing ABBA. The opening riff on this is clearly from Knowing Me, Knowing You. _________________ |

| Oh, Pete. He was a very lovely man. It's very sad to think he's gone. _________________ Disprove the return of a potato (5)

| Just a really good pop song, but with very sweet, tender, pensive lyrics. _________________ Disprove the return of a potato (5)

| This is very Human League.
But not as well produced. _________________ |
