I listened to Abba back in the 70's (who didn't?). We kids listened to it, our parents did too. A repertoire of very catchy melodies. I don't listen to them any more, though. Watched a live performance with them last New Years Eve, brought back many happy child memories. Agnetha Fältskog was sooo hot, every boys dream. :D

My mother (her name is Rita Ahlström) has Swedish roots (Her Grandfather was Swedish). She looks in the 70's like Agnetha.

She listen to ABBA in the 70's, she has many LP's from this supergroup... :D :wink:

That is what I call being really into one thought and never fail from it. I kinda respect them for it.

I like Benny´s abilities , if you consider, that he learned everything by himself. Just look into the "Gimme,gimme,gimme" Video, i´m each time astonished how its fingers fly over the keys. He has also somehow a nice and calm radiant emittance. I believe, if ABBA would be a kind of "way of life", then the world would be nowadays much more colored. That´s what i´m missing.

ABBA dont really need a reunion.....it wouldnt make them anymore popular than they are today.....

And besides....Most people tend to revive their careers,for one reason alone and thats financial gain....I'm sure that ABBA could live comfortably on all the royalties they receive from Airplay on radio,and continued album sales,which is without the wealth they already have...


I like a lot of ABBAs music and recognise them as a huge influence over pop music,and a very unique group,to revive their career would be like trying to force feed what theyve done in the past....If they were to reunite ,personally i would like to see new material,and not reawakeining whats was potentially a massive peak to their career

Björn Ulveus is being forced to pay about 8,7 million euros for not payed incom taxes.

A.Einstein was probable right: "The hardest thing in the world to understand is the incom taxes"

The same thing but different amount of money is now the case for Anni-Frid (Frida) Reuss-Lyngstad. She has not paid taxes either.

For the album 'The Visitors', released in 1981, they used more synths !
Under Attached is a track as for good example. :wink:
