You have Agnetha.
Beautiful Agnetha.
[applause] And we have Björn.
[applause and cheering] Benny.
[applause] And Anni-Frid.
[applause] And they were two couples.
Agnetha and Björn were happily married, yes.
And they had these beautiful Swedish blond and blue-eyed children.
AGNETHA: Yes.
But Anni-Frid and, uh, Benny, they did it a bit different.
They were engaged for 15 years.
[laughter] Then they finally got married.
But they only stayed married for one and half years.
[laughter] And sadly, Agnetha and Björn also got divorced.
I'm sorry.
[laughter] So, the divorces was actually the beginning to the end for the super group ABBA.
But ABBA's music will live forever.
