"Dancing Queen", sung by norwegian Astrid S, and the King and Queen dancing a little at their places. Such a memory from their pre-wedding concert - at 1.49.00. They seemed to like a lot of Christer Sjögren's "Honey, honey" too.

Radio Sweden spoke with the King and Queen, who were seen dancing to the Abba songs and the Queen says that it's clear, you just have to.
When the King and Queen got married, Abba performed with "Dancing Queen". The King says that the song has been with them all the years since then, almost 50 years.
When the King and Queen travel around the world, they hear that Abba's music is popular and the King says that have been fantastic ambassadors for Sweden, skilled Swedes who have shown Sweden to people abroad.
The King and Queen are now trying to get younger members of the royal family to like Abba. The Queen says that it's not just their generation, it's their children too, a second generation that also loves Abba, who are nice people. The King says with a laugh in his voice that it is indeed "three generations even", the Queen replies "we are working on it".
