ABBA - DANCING QUEEN


Title: Dancing Queen
Artist: ABBA
Country: Sweden

This is ABBA’s biggest hit of all time. It was released worldwide in 1976. It was the first song that was given an International Standard Musical Work Code (ISWC) in 1995. The ISWC is a unique identifier for musical works similar to ISBN for books.

This song was number one in the music charts of Australia, Belgium, Great Britain, Denmark, Eurochart 100, Germany, Ireland, Mexico, Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, Rhodesia, South Africa, Soviet, U.S. Billboard Hot 100, and of course Sweden.

This is a song that I never get tired of listening. Though it was released in 1976, this song is always fresh. For me, good music never fades. And no matter how many times this song is covered and revived by different artist, the original version is always the best.
