Björn Ulvaeus has confirmed the news we’ve all been waiting for – there is ‘definitely’ new ABBA music on the way.

Yes, seriously.

The Waterloo singers – also made up of also comprised of Benny Andersson, Anni-Frid Lyngstad and Agnetha Fältskog – went their separate ways in 1982, but have been teasing a possible reunion for years.

Chatting to the Herald Sun, he announced that the time is almost here, and that they’ve been meeting in Stocklholm to discuss new music.

‘There will be new music this year, that is definite, it’s not a case anymore of it might happen, it will happen,’ the 76-year-old said. ‘We’re really, really good friends.

‘The four of us stand in the studio for the first time in 40 years and there’s just something in knowing what we’ve been through.’

He added: ‘It’s hard to describe, but there are such strong, strong bonds between us’. 

Last year, it was revealed that ABBA had new songs ready to drop – but the coronavirus pandemic put a hold on this.

Journalist Geoff Lloyd spilled the beans on a Zoom chat he’d had with Björn during an appearance on the Reasons To Be Cheerful podcast.

‘They’ve recorded five new songs. They should have been out at the end of last year,’ he let slip.

Speaking of a possible new album or tour, he added: ‘I think it’s because they’re going to do this tour with holograms.

‘Because of technical difficulties and the pandemic, it’s delayed things. 

‘But he promised me that the new ABBA music will be out in 2021.’

New music and a hologram tour? We’re not worthy.
