And, are the melodies strong? Do they do something to/for you? And, how good is the performance? How well is it all pulled off?
To me, Abba rank high on everything listed above. Not crap.
Could not have said it better. NOT crap.

23How ABBA can be anything other than Not Crap is fucking beyond me. Mamma Mia, for one, makes me cry nearly every time.

28I find people who quickly and angrily refer to Abba as CRAP to be what some may refer to as 'try-hards'.
They're not just perfect pop. Beneath the shiny layers are some of the greatest harmonies, arrangements and production the world of music has ever offered.
Emphatically and most certainly NON-ironically, NOT CRAP.
