It's time to dust off those platform shoes and dig out the flares, because ABBA is back and Aussies are getting on the dancefloor! The iconic Swedish pop group has captured the hearts of millions around the world, and Australia is no exception.
The Arrival of ABBA
ABBA disbanded in 1982, but their music has remained popular ever since. They have sold over 150 million records worldwide, and their hits like "Dancing Queen", "Mamma Mia", and "Waterloo" are still played on radio stations around the world.
The group has remained in the public eye in recent years, thanks to the success of the musical "Mamma Mia!" and the two movies it spawned. But it wasn't until they announced a "virtual comeback" in 2021 that the excitement really started to build.
Dancing Queens and Kings
As soon as the news was announced, Aussies started dusting off their disco balls and planning ABBA-themed parties. The group's music has always been popular in Australia, and it's not hard to see why. The catchy tunes, upbeat lyrics, and infectious rhythms are perfect for getting up and dancing.
And that's exactly what Aussies have been doing! From house parties to nightclubs, people are taking to the dancefloor to strut their stuff to ABBA's music. Even some of the biggest names in Australian show business have joined in on the fun. Kylie Minogue, for example, recently posted a video of herself dancing to "Dancing Queen" on Instagram.
The Future of ABBA
So, what's next for ABBA? Well, they're set to release a brand new album, "Voyage", in November 2021. The album will feature ten new songs, all written and recorded by the group members. They've already released a few tracks from the album, including "I Still Have Faith in You" and "Don't Shut Me Down".
But that's not all. In May 2022, a new "ABBA Voyage" concert will kick off in London, featuring a "revolutionary new concert experience" where ABBA will appear as digital avatars. Fans around the world will be able to experience the concert via a virtual reality headset.
Conclusion
It's safe to say that ABBA fever has taken over Australia! People are putting on their dancing shoes and getting on the dancefloor to celebrate the music of this iconic pop group. With a new album and a virtual concert experience on the horizon, it's clear that ABBA will continue to be a beloved musical act for many years to come.
