    • “DANCING QUEEN” (1976) Sometimes a band’s most famous song is also their best. Since ABBA were the poppermost of pop stars, making music that belonged to absolutely everybody, it makes poetic sense their most brilliant moment is also their most universally beloved.
    • “KNOWING ME, KNOWING YOU” (1976) Skintight Lycra pantsuits and tragic heartbreak: the ultimate ABBA combination. Like Carole King on Tapestry or Fleetwood Mac on Rumours, ABBA layer their lush 1970s harmonies to kiss off a broken marriage.
    • “THE NAME OF THE GAME” (1977) Having tried everything else a time or two, ABBA made their big prog statement on the 1977 opus that they modestly titled The Album.
    • “SOS” (1975) Play this back to back with anything by Joy Division or the early Cure and you can hear how goth ABBA were. “SOS” defines the high-gloss Nordic melancholy that made them so influential for the new wave and postpunk artists who followed, as those lonely piano notes build up into an overload of synth bombast.
  1. Most ABBA songs were written and produced by Benny Andersson (right) and Björn Ulvaeus (left), with lead vocals most often handled by Anni-Frid Lyngstad (centre left) and Agnetha Fältskog (centre right). ABBA's manager Stig Anderson co-wrote several of the band's songs' lyrics.

    • Gimme, Gimme, Gimme. Abba - Gimme! Gimme! (A Man After Midnight) This song originally had the title 'Under My Sun', and it later formed as the title and theme tune of the 1990s sitcom of the same name starring Kathy Burke.
    • Thank You for the Music. Abba - Thank You For The Music (Official Video) This song was originally featured on the group's fifth album The Album in 1977, but became more famous when it was released as a single in late 1983, to promote the compilation album of the same name.
    • Does Your Mother Know. Abba - Does Your Mother Know (Official Video) This song was strange in that it was an ABBA hit that had lead vocals from Björn rather than either of the two female members!
    • Waterloo. Abba - Waterloo. This was the song that catapulted ABBA into the public consciousness. It helped them win the 1974 Eurovision Song Contest held in Brighton, and ABBAmania was born.
