ABBA refuses $1 billion reunion offer ABBA STOCKHOLM, Sweden -- Members of the Swedish '70s band ABBA say they won't get back together -- not even for $1 billion. An American-British consortium offered them that amount to reunite for 100 concerts, but they refused. "It is a hell of a lot of money to say no to, but we decided it wasn't for us," Benny Andersson tells the Swedish tabloid Aftonbladet. ABBA disbanded 17 years ago, but their hit songs are currently experiencing an international revival. Part of the credit goes to the teen group A-Teens, whose covers versions of "Gimme! Gimme! Gimme!" and "Mamma Mia" have risen up the charts. And the musical "Mamma Mia," based on ABBA songs, has become a hit in London -- sending sales of the album "ABBA Gold" soaring. ABBA got its name from the first initial of each band member: Anna-Frid, Bjorn, Benny and Agnetha. Agnetha Faltskog was married to Bjorn Ulvaeus; Andersson was married to Anni-Frid Lyngstad. Their relationships, as well as the band, broke up in 1983. Since then, Benny and Bjorn have been writing musicals and producing records, while Anni-Frid and Agnetha made unsuccessful attempts to launch solo careers. cnn.com
