On April 6, 1974, ABBA stormed the Eurovison syage in cosmopolitan Brighton.

"Waterloo" was the first ever Swedish winner, and arguably the most memorable moment in Eurovision's entire history. More than 30 years later, people are still buying, playing and singing their tunes. ABBA's last studio album was released in 1981, but the extraordinary global success of Mamma Mia!, the musical and hugely successful film structured around the group's songs have ensured a whole new generation of ABBA fans. Since its premiere over 30 million people have seen the theatrical show and millions more the star-studded film adaption which was a summer box office hit across the world in 2008 and an instant female feel-good classic.

Thank You For The Music traces the fascinating story of the Swedish supergroup through their superb songs, including all 22 from Mamma Mia!
