Merry Christmas and a Happy 2008

Dear readers,
Thank you for all your mails, criticism, cheers friendship I have received this year. I'm proud to tell you that this blog now has reached 300.000 hits since the start in 2005. We certainly aren't a very little group of ABBA fans. The interest is higher than ever before. I'm sure Agnetha, Björn, Benny, and Frida are all really proud that people still care so much for their music.
     To get you into the Christmas mood here are four songs from Agnetha and Frida that have connections to the holiday.    

     Thank you for this year and let's all hope for an even better 2008!Love, Mikael

Hi!
Happy New Year - all ABBA fans! A question for you: Does anyone know if Frida has been singing any ABBA-songs in public since the split?

Best,
Kjetil Rolness

Dear Kjetil,

happy new year to you too!

Well, Frida has sung a few times ABBA songs after the split of the group. In 1984, she sung "I Have A Dream" live at the UNICEF GALA, Frida performed an acapella version of "Dancing Queen" at the swedish queen`s 50.th birthday in 1993 and this recording was also released on the acapella groups album "The Real Group" in 1994. Frida recorded a charity CD single in 2002 with a swiss artist called DAN DANIELL and it contains 2 songs with FRIDA. One is a very beautiful version of "I Have A Dream". There are many different opinions about this recordings from fans, but I must say, that I deeply love this version of "I Have A Dream" with FRIDA & DAN DANIELL.

Dear Kjetil, you can listen to a few samples of the songs with FRIDA on Dan Daniell`s website http://www.dandaniell.ch

Also you are very welcome to write to me, if you have any more questions about Frida.

Best wishes from Vienna.
