- It's just a feeling I have that it would be fun to get together, talk a
bit about the past and may be do something together. But then it has to
be something special.

Quote D'Jour
"Discussing all of our singles was great fun. There are many fond memories - memories about writing the songs, recording and promoting and performing them."
Björn added, "We're all curious and excited to see which songs appear where in the countdown. The British people took us to their hearts, completely... and made us their own, which we are very proud of. It's very nice to come to England because it's like going home."

ABBAs Millions Part 1 of 4
Light hearted British documentary estimating the fortunes of ABBA from their music and related ventures.
Doesn't really take into account the various investments, shares and ventures each member has outside of ABBA, so the final figure is probably substantially higher than reported, especially since the continuing success of Mamma Mia! both as a stage show and as a film, and the never-ending chart success of ABBA Gold would have added tens of millions more since this documentary was made.
