In case you have not heard, ABBA is back!
 

The group announced their return, a new album and a tour on Thursday evening. 

Along with that, ABBA has also released two new songs, Don't Shut Me Down and I Still Have Faith In You
 

Made up of four members, Anni-Frid Lyngstad, 75, Agnetha Faltskog, 71, Bjorn Ulvaeus, 76, and Benny Andersson, 74, ABBA shot to fame in 1974 as the winners of the Eurovision Song Contest. After churning out several hits, including Waterloo, Mamma Mia and Dancing Queen, the group called it quits in 1982. 
 

With a very particular sound, ABBA captured the hearts of many. Their disco pop tracks are still popular today, with both old and new fans. So, a concern for me was, would their sound change? After 40 years away, would they try to fit into what's popular today, or would they still be the old ABBA we all know and love?
