Abba number one in France

edit

I am afraid that it is not true that SOS was Abba's first number one in France. This song was not the most successful Abba song in that country, I do I do was more successful in France and sold 300 000 copies (you can check that on Infodisc or Top France). In fact, the best selling singles for Abba in France were : Fernando, Money Money Money, Gimme Gimme Gimme, they were awarded a gold disc. Svenjonal (talk) 15:52, 19 January 2024 (UTC)Reply

Active or not?

edit

There's a minor edit war going on concerning whether Abba are still active or whether they ceased to be active in 2022. Do we need to reach a consensus on this? Mark and inwardly digest (talk) 13:21, 20 February 2024 (UTC)Reply

Agreed here, as the tussle on this matter is becoming somewhat annoying. This needs to be pinned down. I don't know enough about the matter to have a hard position at this point, though. Stefen Towers among the rest! GabGruntwerk 17:27, 1 May 2024 (UTC)Reply
The years active is ridiculous. To say they've been active since 2016 suggests they have had the same activity for the past 8 years as 1974-82. When they recorded the songs for their recent album is irrelevant. They became publicly active in 2021. They were active 1972-82, 2021. Their current 'live' show is not activity ongoing.Tuzapicabit (talk) 22:29, 4 May 2024 (UTC)Reply
Cites for these claims would be useful for the discussion. Stefen Towers among the rest! GabGruntwerk 22:42, 4 May 2024 (UTC)Reply
