I have my doubts.
Abba has always been the guilty pleasure that I'd never admit to my musician friends. Have to confess that I like their new song “I Still Have Faith In You”.
The new songs are definitely "ABBA" - Agnetha and Anni-frid are sounding great, and Benny and Bjorn providing that wonderful bouncing accompaniment as always. But I do wonder whether the ABBAtars are crossing that "uncanny valley". You do get a feeling from the fellows that they were so caught up in their look as a band, that maybe they great rejection from an audience watching septuagenarians dancing around on stage.
