Today's Songs For Saturday spotlights two new tunes from the Swedish super group ABBA.
For years spinning into decades, the idea of the 4 members of ABBA reuniting to perform new music seemed as elusive as an unicorn.
ABBA has frequently been adamant that they were done. Finito! No more!
Until....
On 27 April 2018, all four original members of ABBA made a joint announcement that they had recorded two new songs.
After various hints and suggestions, it seems the return of ABBA has finally reached its fruition.
ABBA has been reborn.
Or should I say "Re-Bjorn!"
Those two new songs have been released.
Let's start off today's play list with "I Still Have Faith in You".
These two new songs have morphed into an all new album called Voyage coming out later this fall and after that a new 'digital entertainment experience' featuring ABBAtars, a virtual and young again ABBA.
OK, here is the 2nd new song from ABBA, "Don't Shut Me Down".
The whole thing with the ABBAtars risks being more weird than cool.
But damn! The big story is that ABBA lives again.
Thank you, ABBA, for the music.
Well, that is that for today's Songs For Saturday.
Until next time, remember to be good to one another and to always keep the music alive!
Or as they say in Sweden, "håll alltid musiken vid liv!"
