ABBA - Dancing Queen - 1976 |
![]() ABBA was a Swedish pop music group. The band consisted of Benny Andersson (Sweden), Björn Ulvaeus (Sweden), Anni-Frid Lyngstad (Norway), Agnetha Fältskog (Sweden). They topped the charts worldwide from the mid-1970s to the early 1980s. The name "ABBA" is an acronym formed from the first letters of each of the group member's given name (Agnetha, Björn, Benny, Anni-Frid). "Dancing Queen", topped the charts in the loyal markets UK, Germany and Australia, and reached number 1 in the United States. ABBA have performed disco, rock and roll, folk, love songs and other song types. Now, decades later, the songs "Dancing Queen", "Fernando" and "Mamma-Mia" are being played on ipods, stereos and theaters. Their music breadth is quite amazing from the soft toned "Andante, Andante" to "Gimme! Gimme! Gimme! (A Man After Midnight)", "Money, Money, Money", and "Summer Night City". The 1994 movie Muriel's Wedding has also helped introduce younger generations to ABBA's music. ABBA had such hits as: The Day Before You Came, SOS, The Winner Takes it All, Knowing Me Knowing You, as well as many less popular but just as enjoyable ones, among which are: Cassandra, Elaine, That's Me and Crazy World.
Frida has limited success as a recording artist up to the early Seventies even though she was a fairly well-known stage artist. By 1970 she was part of a Swedish cabaret show with her fiancé, Benny Andersson, and with Björn Ulvaeus and his fiancée, Agnetha Fältskog. |
