Since there was a reference to ABBA's final album VOYAGE.This blasted to no1 in 18 countries USA no2 Billboard chart and almost top 3 elsewhere.In UK (also a chart topper)ended no3 in the year end chart of 2021 with only Ed Sheeran and Adele above it,while in Germany it ended as the no1 album of the year.Not bad for a band that was gone in hiatus and didn't record anything for about 4 decades but came back in the streaming era with an organic ' trendblind' album that also ended top 10 in the year end charts globally(N08 all formats and N02 in sales worIdwide).Their VOYAGE expiremental Abbatar gigs in London were reported of having sold out over 650,000 tickets up to a couple of months ago since premiered late May '22.People travel from all over the world go back and watch this unbelievable thing multiple times. Abba is still big deal to many Gens.This is a phenomenon.Gotta give them a well deserved respect now.
That's awesome! I think Eurovision is really fun, and ABBA are great (of course). Thank you so much! :D And Slovenia? Nice! I'm actually going to Bled in a few days
@@ThreeStarVagabond I totally agree! Oh really? That's great! I've heard from my parents they are having a heat wave atm, but the temperatures are supposed to drop soon. Have fun in my country! I look forward to see what are you going to film there. :)
@@SlovenianGirlAbroad Haha I hope it won't be too cold even if it drops a bit - I love heat. But thank you! I really look forward to exploring a bit around the area :D
You didn’t do a proper research , ABBA was immensely popular in Latinamerica which includes Southamerica . We even got a whole album in Spanish and 2 songs in Spanish on every next ABBA albums .And their oil company their manager founded to trade oil and goods like crystal from Poland is in every biography book of ABBA . Gipsy friend or Zigenarvän is on many Agnetha’s pre ABBA cds
I'm actually really happy that I could spread some useless knowledge your way :D Thank you so much - this is less exciting than your travels, but I hope to get away on something adventurous later at least :)
Thank you for this video (and all your videos) and have been watching them ahead of my planned visit in July and the ABBA museum is definitely on my list! I am learning Swedish for fun and listening to ABBA songs på Svenska has really helped.
Woohoo, you'll definitely like the ABBA museum then! And that's so funny - most people in Sweden are listening to the English versions these days, since they are the international ones. So you probably know the Swedish versions better than most Swedish youngsters
Very interesting thank you. I am an american but have deep Swedish roots ( my grandparents on my fathers side came from Sweden) a few more intersting facts. Yes Frida was born in Norway a lebensborn child but her grandmother took her to Sweden as a baby as Norway was horrible to those children and their mothers. Fridas mom died when she was 2 and she grew up in Sweden. Frida also took design classes in Stockholm and is quite the accomplished seamstress. She came up with ideas and helped sew most of their costumes including the snake skin outfit, the waterloo ones and the blue and gold cat dresses she and Agnetha loved to wear. She sewed many maternity clothes for Agnetha and even made clothes for her dogs lol. I have to see this museum one day.
Wow, that's a lot of interesting information! Thanks for those additions - there's always something new to learn. And I hope you get to see the museum and Sweden as well some day! Sounds like you definitely could connect with your roots over here :D
I REMEMBER THAT ABBA WANTED TO PARTICIPATE IN EUROVISION THAT TIME BUT THEY FORBID THEM BECAUSE THEY HAVE ALREADY WON THE EUROVISION,THIS RULE DIDN'T APPLY LATER WITH JOHNY LOGAN AND IRELAND AND NOW LOREEN!!!!!!❤❤❤❤❤AND ONE MORE THING ABBA ARE ALWAYS SUPERSTARS!!!❤❤❤❤❤
@@ABBALAURAFAN Those are awesome goals to have! Hmm.. Maybe you should start with London then, 'cause who knows how long they'll keep doing the concerts right...
Abba had a #1 hit in america - dancing Queen , so Frida came to Sweden at about 5 so that makes her not Swedish? Agnetha had huge Success before ABBA not "some" success.
Nice video! A couple of years ago I went to this museum and loved it. I never knew that much about Abba except for some of the songs, but visiting this museum was one of the highlights of our trip to Sweden. One thing you haven't answered in the video though: what do you think of Abbas music?
Nice to hear that you visited the museum! I thought it was pretty cool - I had a lot of fun. And haha, well, I think it's actually hard to find people who don't enjoy a few ABBA songs. I'm not a die hard fan, but it's part of the Swedish DNA to know Dancing Queen by heart...
@@ThreeStarVagabond Haha I bet. You problably get those lyrics as a test on your high school exam :) But I like Abba as well. It's always nice to listen to.
@@AmsterdamComicGeek We actually only learned useless children's songs when we started learning English. Maybe I should propose that Abba is included in the curriculum instead? But yeah - it's hard to find people who actually dislike Abba for some reason...
Haha yeah they did have some warnings against filming certain things in the museum. But I think they didn't notice me 😀 It was pretty expensive to get in though! I had fun either way
Oooh that's a cool idea! I dont know that much about Avicii so it'd be fun for me as well. Hmm... I'll see if I can film inside there - thank you for the suggestion! 😀
@@ThreeStarVagabond That would be so great! The date when he passed away is coming up on April 20. It's been four years. His parents have really been doing a lot to keep his memory alive in a positive way.
@@sunflowers4227 Oh no, I probably won't have time to visit before April 20 - but that would have been excellent timing otherwise... Yeah, I feel like there's a proper heartwarming (but primarily sad!) story to tell about it all
@@ThreeStarVagabond Yes, that's true , you wouldn't have much time to plan a trip there, but I'll be looking forward to seeing it whenever you can visit. 🙂
@@sunflowers4227 I'll do my best to make it happen soon then! Right now I have work and then I'm off to London over Easter - otherwise I would've planned for Avicii now :)

That is absolutely amazing! Wow, I didn't follow how well Voyage performed - but that's really incredible :D Thanks for that!
Can't wait to visit this museum in 2 weeks! Thanks for covering it!
I hope you'll have a blast! The museum was actually a lot more fun (and more interactive) than I thought it was going to be :D
I would love to visit Abba museum. I'm a huge fan of Eurovision and they are legends. Great tour. Also, love your sense of humour. :)

I think you're definitely someone who knows more about ABBA than me! Cheers for all the corrections!
ABBAAAAAAAAAA THE KINGS AND QUEENS OF EUROVISION!!!❤❤❤❤❤❤
Very interesting, thanks for sharing and enjoy your day, my friend. 😀👍🏻 Even though we visited the museum we lerned something new now.
I'm actually really happy that I could spread some useless knowledge your way :D Thank you so much - this is less exciting than your travels, but I hope to get away on something adventurous later at least :)
ABBAAAAAA ❤❤❤❤❤❤
Great video .. I was hoping to hear 1 thing I did not know. But still fun.
Sorry for that! I did try to find some more unusual facts - but I guess it's hard to surprise a fan :)
@@ThreeStarVagabond indeed but I did enjoy watching so thank you!
Thanks for the interesting facts and review of the museum. I am an ABBA fan from Kyiv, Ukraine. Best wishes and good luck for a new stories! ;)
Thank you so much! And man, best of luck to you in general right now :/ Hang in there, in these horrible times!

WITHOUT ABBA THEMSELVES THESE ARE JUST ORDINARY THINGS!!!!❤❤❤❤❤❤
The mix challenge looks fun.. one day. 🙏
The museum was fun overall! I liked that there was a lot of interactive parts - like the mixer challenge, and singing and a lot more
@@ThreeStarVagabond 2 goals before I die - 1 visit Sweden.. and 2 London for the ABBA concert!
@@ABBALAURAFAN Those are awesome goals to have! Hmm.. Maybe you should start with London then, 'cause who knows how long they'll keep doing the concerts right...
Interesting!!!
Glad to hear it :D It was fun!
We are going to Stockholm soon in April (without the kids) and one of the stops is the abba museum 😃
Oh nice! :D Hope you'll have fun! Any other cool Easter activities palnned when you're in the big city? :)
@@ThreeStarVagabond We are going to a Concert (tool) and be 3 days in Stockholm 🙂
@@nordicwithus That's awesome! :D Alright, hope the weather will be good as well so you get some good views of the city :)
LUCKY SOLDIERS!!!!!❤❤❤❤❤

I can recomend a trip to London to see the new ABBA Voyage Show. Its more than fantastic.
It's too bad that I missed it when I was in London recently! And I missed the Bridgerton Ball as well. I miss all the cool things :)
The entrance of the museum is not cheap, but it was worth it.
I still was scared to shoot something, because I think there was some kind of warning :D
Haha yeah they did have some warnings against filming certain things in the museum. But I think they didn't notice me 😀 It was pretty expensive to get in though! I had fun either way
I'm not sure if they'd let you film there, but would you ever consider visiting the Avicii Experience Museum?
Oooh that's a cool idea! I dont know that much about Avicii so it'd be fun for me as well. Hmm... I'll see if I can film inside there - thank you for the suggestion! 😀

We all know what you talking about
Swedish group Koop
I...DID...NOT...EXPECT...ABBA. ha ha ha
Mamma Mia! Just wait - I might do one about Avicii later on as well 😀
I hate the super salty herring of maratime Canada. I like rollmops.
Rollmops isn't a word I've seen in a long time! Man, I barely remember when anyone made that :D
