    Human beings first global language, MELODY, perfectly delivered by ABBA
  

*by K***S on Reviewed in the United States on September 10, 2023*

For the first year of our lives, all of us, we are soothed and cajoled by tones, forms of melody, no matter where in the world we are born, Alaska, Africa, Australia or the Amazon Jungle. Melody is our first universal language for every human being. “Dancing Queen” by ABBA is a delivery of glorious melody from the very first second to the end of the song.  One the most perfect songs ever recorded by humans in the context of its glorious construction and recording by the group plus the studio guys.  When you read Carl’s intensely and entertainingly researched words you understand the four unique path’s of the participants before the song existed and that the song was no accident, or off the cuff stroke of piece of luck. It took years to mature into its form from their four individual stories as children, as melody fully encouraged them towards music and singing. As the owner of 10’000+ records from over 50 years of loving music myself, a DJ,  music journalist, record company director and Grammy contributor in the USA, I long ago came to the conclusion that the aforementioned “Dancing Queen” was quite possibly the most perfect pop song ever recorded, because of its incredible melody parts, musically and vocally. Carl Magnus Palm’s book here has confirmed that opinion for me personally. If an asteroid was heading for earth I would put that song on and leave this planet with that incredible melody delivery in my soul. Great book Carl. Thank you ABBA, for the music.  Eddie Gordon.

    Exhaustive and excellent
  

*by P***. on Reviewed in the United States on December 31, 2018*

I have loved Abba since discovering them as a shy, withdrawn teenager but never really knew much about their rise to fame or their personal lives until reading this book. This biography is about as complete as you can get and covers a wealth of information about each member as well as their manager Stig Anderson. The book covers each member of Abba in minute detail, from their pre-Abba careers - all of them enjoyed a variety of success on their own (I found Frida Lynstad’s story one of the most fascinating aspects of the book), the group’s decade-long meteoric rise as one of the most successful pop acts ever, their lives following the break-up of the group and how their music has affected the world. The sections that detail the intricate finances and dealings of Polar Music slow the book down but still make interesting reading even though much of it was beyond my comprehension. Every serious fan of Abba will want to read this book. It is fascinating!

    A book worth reading!!!
  

*by S***G on Reviewed in the United States on September 12, 2020*

I read this book after watching an ABBA PBS pledge program.  I’ve been a fan dating back to their initial years and still listen to 20+ songs loaded into my iPhone from cassettes and CDs I purchased back in the day and over the years.  The book provided me with good background on the ABBA members and it was a quick read on my Kindle.
