Mamma Mia! Abba's Agnetha to release first album in nine years

Agnetha Faeltskog, former singer with legendary Swedish pop group Abba, is to release her first album in nine years this May. But is she only in it for the 'Money, Money, Money?'

The 62 year old Super Trouper said she never thought she would sing again.

"When You Really Love Someone", the first single from the album, was made available on iTunes and Spotify today along with a music video on YouTube, after she asked her record label to 'Take a Chance on Me'.

Abba, one of the most popular and enduring bands ever, formed in 1970, sold more than 378 million records to date, split up in 1982 and never reunited, though we still thank them for their music.

A museum dedicated to the group will open in Stockholm this spring, even if there is no chance of Agnetha sending an 'SOS' to her former bandmates in hope of a reunion.

Agnetha's first single from the abum, "When You Really Love Someone" is out now.
