Summary

On the fiftieth anniversary of Waterloo the song, not the battle - one super-fan sits down to listen to the ABBA Gold album from start to finish, and looks back over the half-century he has spent in the company of ABBAs music, and attempting to unlock the secrets of its hold on him, and on all of us.

My My! Summary

My My!: ABBA Through the Ages by Giles Smith

My My! The story of ABBA told through a selection of their greatest hits.

This year is the fiftieth anniversary of Waterloo (the song, not the battle) a seminal moment in pop history which saw Swedish sensation ABBA burst on to the international music scene. How is it that half a century later this seventies Eurovision act is bigger than ever reaching listeners of all ages and spinning off into musicals, museums and holograms? Giles Smith, writer and music fan, sets out to find out why.

My My! is a celebration of ABBA through the ages. Its one fans way of saying: thank you for the music.
