The four members of ABBA made a rare appearance in Sweden this weekend at the premiere of “Mama Mia!,” the feature-length adaptation of the musical based on their songs.
It’s the first time the whole band has shown their faces in public in years and they were once rumored to have been offered a billion dollars to reunite for a world tour a few years ago.
Due in theaters July 18, the film includes 22 classic ABBA songs including “Dancing Queen,” “Take a Chance on Me” and “The Winner Takes It All. The soundtrack is due July 8 and features 17 tracks. We honestly don’t know (or care?) much about this musical or film, but ABBA’s pristinely crafted sugary and sparkling pop will always have a place in the pantheon so we can’t hate too much, but we will say certain people have some strange tans in this movie.
Ps, those waiting for an ABBA reunion shouldn’t hold their breath, principal songwriter Bjorn Ulvaeus, told the London Telegraph,”We will never appear on stage again. There is simply no motivation to re-group. Money is not a factor and we would like people to remember us as we were.”

Can you upload the whole soundtrack please! I cant find it anywhere. Contact me if you do, thanks! NEED PEIRCE BROSNAN ON MY ITUNES
I love this sound track, we bought a copy for all of us that went to the show.
I wish they would have included chiquitita, though. I just loved the way the friends gathered together and sang this song to Donna.
