Hopefully we will get some more clips. I’m so looking forward to hearing the album. ABBA + CHER = WINNING COMBINATION.

The song choices might be seen as a bit mainstream but I'll be interested to see what the arrangements are like and no doubt it will sell well as an Xmas present especially in a few pink stockings.

Love the cover. Glad she has gone with the iconic Abba pose. Roll on September 28th.

I wish she'd covered "C'est la vie (C'est la vie)"... Seriously though I'm really looking forward to this album. Cher's original tweet suggests there will be a final mystery track at the end... imagine if it's a collaboration with ABBA themselves!

I’ve never been a fan of SOS but her voice sounds great and I like the production.

Manages to undo 10 years of hell to that song (thank you Pierce Brosnan). God love Cher

I don’t think I’d properly listened to the lyrics before. I’m really surprised at how well her voice suits this song. For me, I’m really keen to hear her version of “Winner”. Hopefully she will be able to capture all the emotion behind the lyrics.

Gosh, her voice is so distinctive isn't it?
And yes, such a great song.

I am living my best life listening to this.
It’s everything you’d want - Cher belting out ABBA.

Downloaded the album this morning and having a listen to it on my way to work, all I can say is thank you for the music Cher. It’s just a really fun album to listen to and definitely a great way to start the weekend. This is going to get quite a few replays over the coming weeks.

Most of the arrangements and production are pretty predictable. The Chiquitita cover is the most different from the original with that Spanish guitar sound, and a less stompy chorus. Then she ruined it by having the piano outro from the original, which doesn't fit this arrangement one bit. There's nothing too offensive in her covers album but with a bit of imagination it could've been so much better. I know the Abba harmonies will never be bettered, but at least try to do something different with the backing vocals rather than just ripping them off. Disappointed
