Mamma Maria

Swedes and Spaniards. Separated by three decades. Similar styles or blatant white-collar robbery? This is a great example on how music might repeat itself after a while or, better yet, how bloody latin writers take a smash hit and convert it into a completely different song keeping what's good. And you thought we wouldn't realize...the nerve!

Pay Attention To: Chorus! It's all about the chorus. "Mamma Mia" even rhymes with "Ave Maria". Furthermore, you can even sing "si me quisieras todo te daria" over "my my, just how much I've missed you".

Abba - Mamma Mia


VS.
David Bisbal - Ave Maria
