August 26, 20213 yr 2nd September is the 50th anniversary of me landing back in the UK after 2 years in Singapore as a boy. I'm sure it'll have been timed to celebrate my return to UK pop music record buying, being as I bought just about everything they released in the 70's, 80's and most stuff since. :lol:

August 28, 20213 yr Apparently, there is to be some kind of ABBA 'Event', at several Global Cities, on Thursday 2nd September. It lasts from about 5pm, (some say 6pm), to 1 Minute to Midnight. In the 1st Minute of Friday 3rd September, we will get some New ABBA Music. It is to be either 1 Song, or 2 Songs. ABBA have Recorded more than 2 New Songs. We will get the rest at a later Date. Altogether, there are either 5 New Songs, or 8 - or even a New Album. We will see. If you want to get Emails - with on-going information, about ABBA's Plans, here is the ABBA Voyage Site: https://abbavoyage.com/?s=07&fbclid=IwA...T12uA-6dODg-_7k You can see what The Venue will look like, (for The ABBAtars Shows, in London), in this Article, from yesterday's 'The Sun'. The Venue looks like it could be a Building in 'Star Trek'! It seats 3000 People, and there will be 8 Shows a Week. Presumably Saturday, will be the Day with 2 Shows. https://www.thesun.co.uk/tvandshowbiz/15977...-show-comeback/
August 30, 20213 yr Do we have any clue what ABBA Voyage is all about? Why does this project have a dedicated website along with Facebook, Instagram & Twitter pages? :huh: Edited August 30, 20213 yr by Voodoo
August 31, 20213 yr Someone on Popjustice posted this: I just got a sneak peek at the Press kit for this and: - The album will include 10 NEW SONGS. 2 of which will be in the hologram show. - We got a musicvideo for "I Still Have Faith In You" (Not sure what it's gonna be but the press kit includes pictures of ABBA in motion capture suits.) - The album campaign runs from Sep to Dec so I guess they're targeting a December release date - Only B&B appeared in the EPK video. https://forum.popjustice.com/threads/abba-i...u.67379/page-22 :o :o
August 31, 20213 yr All sounds very exciting, I wonder if the lead single will have good opening day streams, the curiosity potential for this must be huge and their back catalogue is masssively successful still.

September 2, 20213 yr As they never actually officially split before, imagine if the press conference this evening is to formally release a statement announcing they have split up as a band. 😱
September 2, 20213 yr There’s something OFF about that Bjorn ABBAtar, I can’t quite place it. It looks roughly like him, but it’s perhaps a little uncanny valley?
September 2, 20213 yr Someone on Popjustice posted this: :o :o If all of that is true I might literally collapse from sheer joy - a whole new album?! :w00t:
September 2, 20213 yr I hope it's good. Does anyone think they have a shot at #1 if they released a new song at midnight? I wouldn't be surprised if they did get to #1. I think a lot of people will feed into the nostalgia of it. Plus, I'd be here for ABBA getting a hit in 2021. *_*
