Not sure if the worst thing about Ace Of Base is that song or the horrendous nazi past of one of the members. 

It's that song. Easily.

I mean, seriously? How the hell did they get in?

Fine lines SD. I'd do a wink emoji but... its not me who uses them... and I wouldn't want to get anyone in trouble ..... @SasaS .........

 

Or sd.... 

 

The only thing I knew about Ace Of Base is that they sampled The Guns Of Brixton in one of their songs and it turns out I have them confused with Beats International, so it transpires I know nothing about Ace of Base.

Listening to them now, from the videos shares in the thread, Nazi past may be irrelevant in their list of crimes.

There was a group of questions on University Challenge, where the teams had to name 4 songs that sampled the Clash - Dub Be Good to Me, Paper Planes... and two others that I can't remember. 

Any ideas?

I think one of them was 'We've sampled a load of shite here' by The Undisputed Truth.

The only good bit is Police On My Back and the Equals version is way better than the Clash one.

I quite like this. It’s not them.

Really looking forward to this reissue next week, full 1971 Royal Albert Hall concert included.

Never really noticed before but the two ladies from Ace of Base are a bit of alright.
