More on Mamma Mia
Description from Wikipedia:
"Mamma Mia" is a song from ABBA's third album, ABBA, written by Benny Andersson, Björn Ulvaeus and Stig Anderson, with the lead vocals shared by Agnetha Fältskog and Anni-Frid Lyngstad.
The official B-side of the single was the instrumental "Intermezzo No.1", also included on the ABBA album. However, in the UK, "Tropical Loveland", another track from the same album, was used as the b-side. The reasoning for this is unclear. Epic Records in the UK may have made the change as "Intermezzo No. 1" was not representative of the album as a whole, being the only instrumental track on it. Epic may have feared that record buyers would be put off from buying the album if they thought there might be more than one vocal-less track on it.
*In 1980, a Spanish version of "Mamma Mia" was included on the album Gracias Por La Música.
*In 1999, a musical with the same name, Mamma Mia! opened in London's West End, featuring many of ABBA's songs, and production has spread to many other countries, with over 1500 performances on Broadway alone.
