Why ABBA are still a massive deal

It's pretty amazing when you think about it. The band, ABBA, shot to global fame after winning the Eurovision Song Contest back in 1974 with their song "Waterloo." For anyone who doesn’t know, Eurovision is a huge, continent-wide music competition, and winning it is a massive deal. After that, they just kept releasing hit after hit. Songs like "SOS," "Mamma Mia," and "The Winner Takes It All" became the soundtrack for a generation. And they weren't just temporary chart-toppers; these are timeless hits that have stayed popular for almost 50 years.

But how do they stay so relevant? Well, just look at the numbers on Spotify, where they consistently have around 60 million people listening every single month. That’s more than many current artists! Their music has also been given a new lease of life through other amazing projects. There are the blockbuster film musicals, 'Mamma Mia!' and its sequel, which introduced their songs to a whole new audience. People who weren't even born when the band was together now know all the words. Then there’s the high-tech virtual concert series in a purpose-built London Arena, where digital versions of the band perform every night. It’s a groundbreaking show that proves how innovative their team continues to be. For the truly dedicated fans, there's even a dedicated ABBA museum in Stockholm. This band isn't just a nostalgia act; they are a living, breathing part of modern culture, and this tribute night is a celebration of that incredible, ongoing story.
