It was 50 years ago today that ABBA performed Waterloo as their entry to the Melodifestivalen, Sweden's selections for the Eurovision Song Contest. It was that day that history was made, and our favorite band won first place.
ABBA won for a multitude of different reasons - their unique song choice, their exquisite presentation, and their amazing songwriting. Out of all the entries, ABBA stood out. They didn't let their loss from the year before let them down, and instead they came back stronger. ABBA faced their Waterloo, but they didn't let themselves get defeated. Instead they won.
Of course, as we all know, for ABBA, their story was just getting started. But today, let's celebrate ABBA's historic win, just two months before their next big win - Eurovision, 1974!
