How Abba's "Thank You for the Music" Really Happened...
I guess some comedy sketches are way funnier if you know the
context. So a new sketch from the UK’s Mitchell and Webb Are Not Helping about
Abba is pretty brave, given the shrinking demographic that might get this. Never mind, I’m part of that demographic and
found this hilarious so all you young people scratching your collectve head can
just jog on…
The sketch centers around the creation of the song “Thank
You for the Music” – one of Abba’s greatest hits of the greatest hits of the band Abba (that was translated directly from the Swedish). In it, Bjorn introduces the song to a
sceptical Agnetha – watch the rest to see what happens.
