ABBA fans rejoice! Two new songs set to be released
Swedish disco group ABBA have reunited to release two new songs, 35 years after the release of their last single, sparking joy amongst the band’s many fans.
Yahoo 7 reports the group will release two new songs called “I Still Have Faith In You” and “Don’t Shut Me Down” which were recorded last year on the sly.
“We all four felt that, after some 35 years, it could be fun to join forces again and go into the recording studio. So we did,” the group said in a statement.
The legendary group split up in 1982 after a legendary run of hits with songs like, “Waterloo”, “Dancing Queen”, “Mamma Mia” and “Super Trouper”.
“It was like time had stood still and that we only had been away on a short holiday. An extremely joyful experience!” the band members added.
Fans are now waiting with baited breath for the release of the songs, and music expert Carl Magnus Palm, who has written several books about the group, sees no reason why the new music won’t be a hit.
“I think it’s going to sound pretty much like their last songs from 1982, with quite a mild tempo, not like ‘Voulez-Vous’ or ‘Gimme Gimme Gimme’,” he told AFP.
“Frida’s and Agnetha’s voices are the same, so it won’t be a huge difference,” he said
