Hmm, anyone heard of ABBA? Well it must have ring some bells huh? ABBA is a Sweedish group from 70's & 80's, joinning the ranks of worlds greatest singers/bands. It consist of 4 memebers, namely Benny Andersson, Agnetha Fältskog, Anni-Frid "Frida", Björn Ulvaeus.
According to some sources Abba is actually the name of a popular fish-canning company in Sweden. Hmm, smells fishy in here.. haha, just joking.. Since the fish canners were more or less unknown outside Sweden, so the name stuck on. ABBA is also an acronym from each of the member's name: Agnetha, Björn, Benny and Anni-Frid. Abba is "father" in Hebrew but the band claims that to be unintentional. The first B in the logo version of the name was reversed on the band's promotional material from 1976 onwards.
A few of their most popular songs were
Fernando
Mamma Mia
I Have A Dream (sung by Westlife as well)
Take A Chance On Me
Waterloo
Dancing Queen (sung by A-Teens as well)
