Abba (Live)

ABBA are a Swedish pop group formed in Stockholm in 1972 by Agnetha Fältskog, Björn Ulvaeus, Benny Andersson and Anni-Frid Lyngstad.The group's name is an acronym of the first letters of their first names.

They became one of the most commercially successful acts in the history of popular music, topping the charts worldwide from 1974 to 1982.ABBA won the Eurovision Song Contest 1974 at The Dome in Brighton, UK, giving Sweden its first triumph in the contest.They are the most successful group to have taken part in the competition.Estimates of ABBA's total record sales are at least 400 million records worldwide, making them one of the best-selling music artists of all time.They are the best-selling band from continental Europe, and also from outside the English-speaking world.ABBA are the first group from a non-English-speaking country to achieve consistent success in the charts of English-speaking countries, including the United Kingdom, Ireland, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, South Africa, and the United States.They have a joint record eight consecutive number-one albums in the UK. The group also enjoyed significant success in Latin America, and recorded a collection of their hit songs in Spanish.During the band's active years, it was composed of two couples, the one being Agnetha Fältskog and Björn Ulvaeus, the other Anni-Frid Lyngstad and Benny Andersson.With the increase of their popularity, their personal lives suffered which eventually resulted in the collapse of both marriages.Several films, notably Muriel's Wedding (1994) and The Adventures of Priscilla, Queen of the Desert (1994), further revived interest in the group and spawned several tribute bands.In 1999, ABBA's music was adapted into the successful musical Mamma Mia! that toured worldwide.A film of the same name, released in 2008, became the highest-grossing film in the United Kingdom that year.A sequel, Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again, was released in 2018.ABBA were honoured at the 50th anniversary celebration of the Eurovision Song Contest in 2005, when their hit "Waterloo" was chosen as the best song in the competition's history.The group was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2010.In 2015, their song "Dancing Queen" was inducted into the Recording Academy's Grammy Hall of Fame.On April 27, 2018, it was announced that the band had recorded two new songs after 35 years of being inactive, named "I Still Have Faith in You" and "Don’t Shut Me Down", and that they will be released in December 2018.On September 18, 2018, in an interview, Andersson said that they are still working on the songs, with possibly a third one written, and the songs will now be released sometime in 2019.
