English
By (author): Giles Smith
A lovely book as bright, shiny and uplifting as an Abba hit Daily Mail
[A] witty and affectionate account . . . Its not a stretch to say that, at its core, My My! is a book about time, death and the possibility of immortality Sunday Times
'At last, a book that's worthy of ABBA' Spectator
My My! The story of ABBA told through a selection of their greatest hits.
This year is the fiftieth anniversary of Waterloo (the song, not the battle) a seminal moment in pop history which saw Swedish sensation ABBA burst on to the international music scene. How is it that half a century later this seventies Eurovision act is bigger than ever reaching listeners of all ages and spinning off into musicals, museums and holograms? Giles Smith, writer and music fan, sets out to find out why.
My My! is a celebration of ABBA through the ages. Its one fans way of saying: thank you for the music.
