ABBA’s new album Voyage has made history with its UK chart success.
Waterloo’s first album was released earlier this month. The Official Albums Chart soared to its top in just one week.
The album marked ABBA’s 10th number one album in the UK, and it became 2021’s fastest-selling album so far as it registered the biggest first week sales in four years.

After releasing Voyage, their first album for 40 years, Legends: ABBA has risen to the top spot on the Official Albums Chart.
However, new data also revealed that the album reached the top of the album charts across 17 different countries. The album sold over 1 million copies globally in its first week. To date, it has been streamed more than 190,000,000 times.
The band spoke out about the success of Voyage’s early releases, saying that they were so pleased with the response from their fans.
‘We are absolutely over the moon to have an album at the top of the charts again.’

This news is coming as Mamma Mia’s singers have also reached new heights, with GOLD, their greatest hits album which was certified platinum by BRIT in the UK.
ABBA’s GOLD was released in September 1992, debuting at Number 1, and has gone on to be the UK’s second best-selling album of all time, falling only behind Queen’s greatest hits album.
Rob Crutchley from BPI, overseeing The BRIT Certified Awards said that “Gold being 20x Platinum was an exceptional achievement.”

Back with a bang! ABBA has announced that they are returning to music. They also have a London residency for a hologram performance.
‘It shows – along with the great success of Voyage – just how well-loved Abba are and how their enduring appeal truly spans generations.’
Earlier in the week, ABBA revealed details about their debut Christmas single “Little Things” which will be available on CD via Universal Music Group.
Voyage features the single, which is a light reflection on Christmas morning joys and the family bonding that surrounds this holiday.
