ABBA singers appealing fans to vote for favourite song in tribute show
September 14th, 2010 - 4:44 pm ICT by ANILondon, Sep 14 (ANI): Members of Bjorn Ulvaeus and Anni-Frid Lyngstad, have come forward to make an appeal to fans to vote for their favourite song from the band, as part of an upcoming TV tribute.
The tribute will see the duo reveal all about their time in the band.
The pair formed one half of the Swedish supergroup and achieved nine number one hit singles in Britain alone.
And now, they have joined hands again to record a series of revealing interviews about their heyday for a forthcoming show on ITV.
The duo also wants ABBA fans to vote for their most beloved track to form part of a countdown on the programme.
“Discussing all of our singles was great fun. There are many fond memories - memories about writing the songs, recording and promoting and performing them,” the Daily Express quoted Lyngstad as saying.
Ulvaeus added: “We’re all curious and excited to see which songs appear where in the countdown. The British people took us to their hearts, completely… and made us their own, which we are very proud of. It’s very nice to come to England because it’s like going home.”
The show will air later this year (10). (ANI)
