"Countdown", ABC Australia, December 6 1981.

Lyrics inspired by the recent divorce of ABBA's Björn Ulvaeus and Agnetha Fältskog (or "Anna" as she was commonly known).

In 2010, the song was included on the soundtrack of the acclaimed movie "Animal Kingdom".

Watch for some "Bohemian Rhapsody"-inspired visuals at the end!

Martin Plaza is lead singer on this single which was lifted from the Mentals' "Cats and Dogs" album. Both single and album were big hits in Australia.

Mental As Anything is something of a phenomenon in Australia, having recorded and performed for over twenty years (1977-2000) without a single lineup change.

  • @operatorofthedrones Thanks for pointing this out, I've added that information to the title and tags :)

  • ABBA could theoretically get back together, but they won't and they shouldn't.

  • @MeatCloud be proud to add yourself to the " haters " and keep your hating thoughts to yourself.

  • Anybody who has discovered this song through 'Animal Kingdom' should now do the right thing... immediate suicide.

    1. Becuase your ignorance is inexcusable.

    2. Because you wasted 90 mins (or whatever) of your life watching such brainless crap.

    Plenty of bands did the beer between tunes... Boy do I miss them days :(
