ABBA World blog – year three

This week the ABBA World blog celebrates its third annivesary! Time flies when you’re having fun and all that. It seems like only yesterday that I was making those very first posts.

Here’s a sampling of some of my favourite posts over the last year: 

• Finally facing their ‘Waterloo’? The importance – or not? – of Eurovision in ABBA’s story.
• Story Of A Heart and the music of Benny Andersson does Benny’s music sound like ABBA or is it the other way around?
• Benny Andersson Band in London I was there!
• My City_My Life Björn’s travelogue around Stockholm for CNN.
• No Voulez-Vous Deluxe Edition? delayed in 2009, now to be released in May 2010.
• Who owns a song? discussion on the virtue of cover versions.
• Kristina at Carnegie Hall I was there for the English language debut of Benny and Björn’s musical.
• ABBA and the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame reaction to the announcement of ABBA’s induction.
• Mamma Mia! fans celebrate the return of the musical.
• ABBA and Christmas why I’m glad ABBA never made a Christmas record.
• What was the ABBA event of 2009 poll – still open, by the way!
• My first ABBA record reminiscing about the ABBA LP.
• The Little White Piano Björn’s literary debut.
