ABBA returns with new album -after 40 years!

[shinkyoku]

Personally I am not a fan. But many people are, and they might be interested in knowing that ABBA yesterday officially reunited with all original members.
Two new songs was released in connection with the announcement, and a full album will be released november 5.

The legendary disco band "took a break" 1981, and has not worked together since.

the new songs released:

 

[Goon Dog]

After 40 years, every ABBA song still sounds exactly like every other ABBA song. Progress!

 

[Chad The Limey]

Respect to them, Benny & Bjorn are great songwriters and Agnetha and Frida’s melodies are still spot on

No way!!

Way!!

Wow 40 years is more than half their lives. That's a long break. Wish them the best.

 

[AleYeah]

Not particularly a fan of this style of music, but the voices still sound strong. My wife's a big fan, so no doubt the new album will be on my shelf come November.

 

[HaulParris]

Unbelievable! Respect.

 

[Senzo Tanaka]

I got into them later in life but absolutely love their stuff. Voulez-Vous is a pop masterpiece. Is this the longest stretch a band has went with reuniting with all of the original members?

True, but also unlike anything else. That's the power of voice. Few artists in any medium ever achieve it.

I'm not a fan, myself, except of "Dancing Queen". That's one of the most epitomatic songs of all time. Defines a time.

 

[Joe_Armstrong]

ABBA have some genius songs.
I've seen their new song, and I don't think it's as great as the old stuff.
