Since the beginning, in Aarhus, 20 years ago, they have developed into a professional and perpetual success with Swedish Abba as their ideal. The need to worship Abba and their music did far from vanish with the break up of the group in 1982.
Abba Revival Bands unerring cover has convinced many fans and led the band on a successful pop-odyssey with Abba's fantastic pop songs and cool seventies-glam in the trunk. With the billing, "The Original Abba Revival Band From Scandinavia" they have successfully toured for a great number of years and appeared on several TV- and radio shows in Scandinavia, Greenland and Germany.
The Abba Revival Band members are currently seven show musicians from Aarhus, Copenhagen and Stockholm. The band performs using the classic abba-line-up with the two couples in front and a backing band.
The overall impression of the sound, the costumes and the show comes close to the real thing and many festivals; company parties and clubs have given in to the irresistible urge to party, dance and sing-a-long.

Abba Revival Band Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
So I made up my mind, it must come to an end
Look at me now, will I ever learn?
I don't know how but I suddenly lose control
There's a fire within my soul
Just one look and I can hear a bell ring
One more look and I forget everything
Mamma mia, here I go again
My my, how can I resist you?
Mamma mia, does it show again
My my, just how much I've missed you?
Yes, I've been brokenhearted
Blue since the day we parted
Why, why did I ever let you go?
Mamma mia, now I really know
My my, I could never let you go
I've been angry and sad about things that you do
I can't count all the times that I've told you "we're through"
And when you go, when you slam the door
I think you know that you won't be away too long
You know that I'm not that strong
Just one look and I can hear a bell ring
One more look and I forget everything
[Chorus]
Yes, I've been brokenhearted
Blue since the day we parted
Why, why did I ever let you go?
Mamma mia, even if I say
"Bye bye, leave me now or never"
Mamma mia, it's a game we play
"Bye bye" doesn't mean forever
[Chorus]
Yes, I've been brokenhearted
Blue since the day we parted
Why, why did I ever let you go?
Mamma mia, now I really know
My my, I could never let you go
