Personal Quote:

[Talking about ABBA's signature song "Dancing Queen"]: I loved the song from the very beginning. Coming back from the studio, Benny played the backing track to me. It was so beautiful that I started to cry. I mean, even without lyrics or voices on it, it was outstanding. See more »
