Abba unaware of UK Eurovision 'snub'

Abba unaware of UK Eurovision 'snub'

Abba's Bjorn Ulvaeus and Frida Lyngstad

Eurovision winners Abba have admitted they were completely unaware that the UK gave them "nul points" at the song contest they won in 1974.

Bjorn Ulvaeus and Frida Lyngstad revealed their surprise after being informed of the fact by BBC 5 live.

"All these years and I thought the Brits were our best friends," Ulvaeus joked at the launch of a new Abba World exhibit in London.

Abba won the contest for Sweden with their song Waterloo with 24 points.

Ulvaeus said he was surprised to learn the news from reporter 5 live reporter Colin Paterson, particularly as Waterloo hit number one in the UK singles chart two weeks later.

Voting changes

In 1974, the voting rules were completely different to the current system. Each country had just 10 jurors, who gave one vote apiece to their favourite song.

Of the 10 points available to distribute, the UK gave five to Italy, two to Israel and one each to Finland, Ireland and Switzerland.

The UK's entry, sung by Olivia Newton John, finished in fourth place with 14 points.

The rules changed in 1975, when the juries began to award a maximum of 12 points to their favourite songs.

In 1998, the format changed again, allowing fans in all competing countries to vote in their millions.

The same voting system is still in use today.

Following Eurovision, the UK's love affair with Abba continued with nine number one songs between 1974 and 1980 and Abba's Gold: Greatest Hits album has sold 3.9m copies.

The hit film Mamma Mia!, based on Abba's songs, also become the highest grossing movie cinema release in the UK ever last year.

Abba are due to be inducted into The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in March, but when asked if there was any chance Abba could reform, Lyngstad said she enjoyed being a grandmother and needed "the musical motivation to go back".

Mamma Mia! Parque temático ABBAWORLD abre en Londres

LONDRES (AP) — ABBA, el cuarteto sueco que produjo éxitos como "Waterloo" y "Dancing Queen", vendió 400 millones de discos desde los años 70 e inspiró el musical llevado al cine "Mamma Mia!" ahora tiene un museo-parque temático con suficiente música y recuerdos para satisfacer al más ferviente de sus fans.

LONDRES (AP) — ABBA, el cuarteto sueco que produjo éxitos como "Waterloo" y "Dancing Queen", vendió 400 millones de discos desde los años 70 e inspiró el musical llevado al cine "Mamma Mia!" ahora tiene un museo-parque temático con suficiente música y recuerdos para satisfacer al más ferviente de sus fans.

Los organizadores de ABBAWORLD prometen que la exhibición, que abre el miércoles en Londres, será "un lugar de total interacción" con la banda.

"Todo empezó con un, '¿Cómo le damos al visitante un gran abrazo en cada sala?''', dijo Magnus Danielsson, presidente de Touring Exhibitions, la compañía detrás de ABBAWORLD. "Esto será más como ir a 'Mamma Mia!' que como ir a una exposición. Queremos que la gente cante y baile".

La música de ABBA es ineludible a lo largo de ABBAWORLD, desde la exuberante "Dancing Queen" hasta la melancólica "Knowing Me, Knowing You" y la desgarradora "The Winner Takes It All" recuerdan que la agrupación comenzó como dos parejas casadas que terminaron en divorcio.

La muestra cuenta la historia de la banda en 25 salas que suman más de 2.800 metros cuadrados (30.000 pies cuadrados). Vitrinas contienen trajes con lentejuelas de seda, satén y spandex y los visitantes podrán ver recreaciones de los Polar Studios, donde ABBA grabó, y la cabina cerca de Estocolmo donde Bjorn Ulvaeus y Benny Andersson compusieron sus éxitos.

Una esquina alberga el helicóptero de la portada de su álbum de 1976 "Arrival".

Un elemento interactivo ambiguo le permitirá a los visitantes tomar exámenes, recrear el sonido de la banda en una mesa mezcladora o bailar y cantar junto con una versión de ABBA animada con tecnología de "video holográfico". La tienda de regalos incluye camisetas, osos de peluche, rompecabezas y figurines de ABBA, además de CDs.

Una audioguía narrada por el actor sueco Stellan Skarsgard, uno de los astros de la película "Mamma Mia!", sigue la historia de la agrupación, desde que sus miembros formaban parte de bandas amateur en la adolescencia hasta que alcanzaron el estrellato tras ganar en 1974 el Festival de la Canción de Eurovisión con "Waterloo".

Los miembros de ABBA —Andersson, Ulvaeus, Anna-Frid "Frida" Lyngstad y Agnetha Faltskog— se separaron en los años 80 y prometieron no volver a reunirse.

Los cuatro apoyan el proyecto y han donado artículos de colección y grabado entrevistas que forman parte de la exhibición.

Los organizadores de ABBAWORLD esperan crear un lugar de peregrinaje a la altura de la mansión Graceland de Elvis o la ciudad de Liverpool de los Beatles, pero rodante. Tras su periodo en Londres, donde se prevé estará hasta marzo, planean enviar la muestra de gira y crear nuevas versiones en Australia y Nueva York para finales de este año.

Mamma Mia! Abba 'Back Together' For New Show

11:50am UK, Wednesday January 27, 2010

Steve Hargrave, showbiz correspondent
Abba have finally been reunited on stage, but sadly it is only as holograms.

Two of the legendary Swedish group turned up in London for the launch of a huge exhibition called Abba World, which features memorabilia alongside computer recreations of the band on stage.

But having been bombarded yet again by the reunion question, Sky News wondered if they were thinking "Mamma Mia, here we go again".

"It is very boring to have that question asked, yes!" laughed Bjorn Ulvaeus.

Anni-Frid Lyngstad and Bjorn Ulvaeus arrive at the premiere of the ABBA World exhibition at Earl's Court in London.

Frida and Bjorn arrive for the opening of the show, which will eventually tour Europe

"There's been Sheiks and all kinds of people trying to get us back together but we need a musical motivation.

"But it's nice for people to remember us as we were isn't it?"

According to pop folklore of course, they were offered a billion dollars for just one show but while other unlikely bands - like Led Zeppelin, and The Police - have given in to temptation, Abba have never been keen to take a chance.

Anni-Frid Lyngstad, aka Frida, says the reason is simple.

It's almost 30 years since we split up now, and here we are. It's weird and wonderful isn't it.

Bjorn Ulvaeus of Abba

"If I picture myself on stage these days I really don't know what I would do there" she smiles. "I could never do the things I did when I was young. I'm just happy I have these memories."

Abba World will no doubt be a perfect for fans who have a dream to step through 25 rooms filled with costumes, photos and interactive gizmos.

For anyone else of course it may just be a journey through some decidedly brave outfit choices.

Lisa Snowdon arrives at the premiere of the ABBA World exhibition at Earl's Court in London.

Presenter Lisa Snowdon was among the many celebs at the event

"My costume is high fashion!" smiles Bjorn as we survey what he wore for the band's breakthrough 1974 Eurovision triumph.

"I think it would be slightly too big for me now, I was overweight. It's weird, it's like you become a spectator yourself, I mean it's almost 30 years since we split up now, and here we are. It's weird and wonderful isn't it."

"It's a nostalgia trip" agrees Frida.

"When you get older in a normal world you look back at photo albums but for us it's something you never get away from. It is weird in a way, I must say."

:: Abba World is on at Earls Court, West London, until March 28

Abbaworld interactive exhibition to open in London

Abba have got behind the exhibition

Abba fans will get the chance to immerse themselves in everything about the band as an interactive exhibition has its premiere in London.

Abbaworld, which has the backing of the Swedish band, features 25 rooms full of memorabilia, behind-the-scenes footage and music dedicated to the foursome.

Fans will even be able to get up on stage with their "idols" as part of a 3D hologram installation.

The exhibition opens at London's Earls Court on 27 January.

Frida Lyngstad said: "On behalf of Agnetha, Bjorn, Benny and I, we are delighted to be part of Abbaworld and to have the opportunity to share our amazing experiences with our fans."

As part of the interactive experience, visitors will also be able to appear in music videos, on album covers and take part in a sing-a-long.

The exhibition is expected to go on a world tour but no other dates have yet been announced.

Tickets for the London date go on sale on 3 December.
