But he refuses to rule out a reunion: “But never say never.”

Jonathan joins him for an impromptu ABBA singalong.

Here they go again!

2 07 2009

sunAccording to “The Sun” newspaper (ie, not on this planet!) ABBA are being primed to see if they will take on the record-breaking run of shows planned for Michael Jackson.  AEG Live, the team behind the King of Pop’s planned 50-night residency are trying to tempt the Mamma Mia band out of retirement with mega-bucks deals.   And we all know there is no way that will ever happen. Gorel has once again denied the story has any truth. Not that she needs to really.  Typical of The Sun newspaper is all I can say.

According to Expressen ABBA’s spokeswoman Görel Hanser. It is not true. Abba will not be reunited, “she says, and insists that the claim comes as a total novelty.
The information does not come from any of the group members and not from me. It is absolutely not an issue.   Aftonbladet have picked up the story also with Benny saying “you can forget that” and confirming that the group have not been approached.

Just a reminder that Benny will be appearing on the Jonathan Ross show this Friday (as reported on Tuesday) and possibly “The One Show” on BBC.  However not confirmed.
