How did ABBA go from repeated disappointments in Sweden's Eurovision selection to winning the 1974 Eurovision Song Contest with “Waterloo”?
ABBA historian Carl Magnus Palm takes us through the years leading up to that breakthrough: the rejected songs, “Ring Ring”, Stig Anderson's determination, the development of ABBA's sound and the extraordinary costumes that helped make their Eurovision appearance unforgettable.
We also explore how “Waterloo” got its title, the musicians behind the recording and the decisions that transformed four Swedish performers into international stars.
An in-depth conversation with Steve Blame, marking 50 years since ABBA's historic victory in Brighton on 6 April 1974.
