All of the songs that I have listed are ABBA songs that peaked at number one in the UK - and all of these songs are in chronological order.
1. Waterloo (peaked at #1 in May 1974, and stayed at the top for 2 weeks) 2. Mamma Mia (peaked at #1 in January 1976, and stayed at the top for 2 weeks) 3. Fernando (peaked at #1 in May 1976, and stayed at the top for 4 weeks) 4. Dancing Queen (peaked at #1 in September 1976, and stayed at the top for 6 weeks) 5. Knowing Me, Knowing You (peaked at #1 in April 1977, and stayed at the top for 5 weeks) 6. The Name of the Game (peaked at #1 in November 1977, and stayed at the top for 4 weeks) 7. Take A Chance On Me (peaked at #1 in February 1978, and stayed at the top for 3 weeks) 8. The Winner Takes It All (peaked at #1 in August 1980, and stayed at the top for 2 weeks) 9. Super Trouper (peaked at #1 in November 1980, and stayed at the top for 3 weeks) Nine number one singles, and 31 weeks at the top. That’s an average of 3.44 weeks at the top. |

Their best songs didn’t get to #1!
Lay All Your Love On Me, Gimme Gimme Gimme and S.O.S.  My favourite of these is probably The Winner Takes It All ~ |
