Abba girls plan a reunion

Singer Anni-Frid Lyngstad, known to fans as Frida, reveals that she and former band mate Agnetha Faltskog have discussed working with each other again.

The pair have not performed together since Abba folded in 1983 and 60-year-old Agnetha has been particularly keen to stay out of the limelight in recent years.

“It would be great to do something with Agnetha,” says Frida, 65. “If we did, it would be hard to avoid all the pressure because of Abba. It could never be low-key.”

The band, which has sold more than 375 million records, consisted of two couples, with Agnetha married to Bjorn Ulvaeus while Frida was married to Benny Andersson. Both couples later divorced and the two men have previously ruled out a full Abba comeback.

But Frida says she and Agnetha can’t resist privately weighing up the possibility of working together. “We talk about it,” she adds.

Both women have recently stepped back into the studio after years away from music. Frida recently recorded a duet with Swedish pal Georg Wadenius – a cover of Cat Stevens’ song Morning Has Broken. Meanwhile Agnetha is said to want to record with Swedish pop star Robyn.

Since the band’s split, the Abba songs have been made into West End musical Mamma Mia! as well as a film of the same name. Earlier this year the band was inducted into the Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame in Ohio.

But the stars of the group have appeared together only twice since they went their separate ways – in 2005 for the Stockholm premiere of Mamma Mia! and again in 2008 for the film premiere. The band still sells nearly three million records a year and was last year voted the group that the British public most wanted to see re-formed. Fingers crossed they will get their wish.
