Top 10 Tuesday of Groovy Tunes: ABBA Takes a Chance on Me
Each week I feature 10 groovy tunes that reached the Top 10 on Billboard's Hot 100 chart during the last 50+ years. You can vote for your three favorites, and the five with the most votes move on to the following week when five new songs will be added to the list.
Cyndi Lauper reclaimed the top spot last week with "Time After Time", which received 21 votes out of the 134 cast. And this week she will be challenged by Bette Midler, The Pointer Sisters and ABBA.
