ABBA documentary includes comments from Roxette
Written by onlywhenidream on December 27, 2001 to Roxette.
LONDON - Commentary by Per and Marie is included in a documentary about the members of ABBA produced for BBC radio in the U.K.
The program attempts to reveal the secrets of the Benny Anderson and Björn Ulvaeus songwriting partnership, one of the most successful in the history of pop. While various ABBA releases still sell around 3,000 copies worldwide per day, Benny and Björn have gone on to write for the stage. “Mamma Mia!”, a musical based around ABBA songs, is a current smash hit in London, Toronto, and New York.
The program airs on BBC Radio 2 beginning on Tuesday, January 8th.

As a Roxer and also an Abba-fan, I only hope that whenever BBC makes a documentary about Roxette, the Abba members will also do a guess appearance ;)

ABBA, just like Roxette, kicks major Swedish ass! ABBA seriously had a great impact on the music world, not less other musicians, that has lasted for generations. It doesn’t matter where you are from, what type of music you play, what your creed is, what color your skin is, whatever.... it’s just great music!
