    This song here is one of my most favorite songs by ABBA along with "Dancing Queen" which I also really like as well since those two songs are my favorite songs by the band. Since today is also June 18th, today apparently marks the 208th anniversary too of the Battle of Waterloo since Napoleon was defeated in this particular battle exactly 208 years ago today on exactly Sunday, June 18th, 1815.

    "Waterloo couldn't escape if i wanted to... waterloo knowing my fait is to be with you" this would have been the perfect song for a wandavision promo. It's retro, catchy, and has lyrics that sounds a little nefarious, and it's about love.

      Don't get me wrong, I grew up with both ABBA and Donna Summer, and I absolutely love them both. But ABBA was mostly pop, whereas the late, great, Miss Summer was mostly Disco.
      I know it's probably a minor mistake to most people but, as soon as they played Waterloo in the movie, I got a little peeved, lol!
      As a matter of fact, when Commander/Captain Lewis' hubby showed her that he found an actual copy of ABBA's double album, I think Waterloo was in that set (my older sister loved ABBA, and actually had that double album set).

    I never liked this song, but I had a dream that I was listening to Abba on TV and all I could remember is they were singing "promise to love you forever more" , . So I looked in UA-cam for the lyrics, i didn't know what the song Waterloo was about, great son about Napoleon the loser .

    The University of Waterloo uses this song as their goal song it’s absolutely ice cold and an incredible experience live but when you’re on the other bench it’s not fun but As a fan you love it
