5 Shocking Ways ABBA Is Still Releasing 'New' Songs (The Latest Updates For 2025)

The question on every fan's mind in late 2024 and heading into 2025 is simple: are there any new ABBA songs? The definitive answer is complex, as the iconic Swedish quartet has not released a new group studio single since their monumental 2021 reunion album, *Voyage*. However, the world of ABBA is far from silent, with exciting new music and major updates coming from the individual members, the spectacular London residency, and even a brand new song from one of the legendary vocalists. The latest updates, as of December 2025, confirm that while the group has ruled out a full reunion for the 50th anniversary of their Eurovision win, the creative engines of Björn Ulvaeus, Benny Andersson, Agnetha Fältskog, and Anni-Frid Lyngstad (Frida) are still running at full speed. Fans seeking that fresh ABBA sound should look to solo projects and the evolving *ABBA Voyage* concert experience, which has added four classic tracks to its setlist, giving the illusion of new material within the immersive show.

The Closest Thing to a New ABBA Song: Agnetha's Solo Return

For fans desperately seeking a fresh track featuring one of the iconic ABBA voices, the biggest news of the last few years came from Agnetha Fältskog. In 2023, Agnetha released the solo album *A+*, a reimagined version of her 2013 album *A*. The project, which saw her collaborate with producer Jörgen Elofsson, wasn't just a re-release; it included a brand new song that was recorded specifically for the album: "Where Do We Go From Here?". This track is a significant entity for ABBA fans, as it is the most recent piece of entirely new music to come from a core member. The song showcases Agnetha's timeless vocal quality in a modern, yet familiar, pop context. It quickly became a highlight for those who missed hearing her voice on new material. The album’s release and the new single prove that while the group may be finished, the individual members are still musically active.

2. The B&B Creative Engine: New Music from Benny and Björn in 2024

The legendary songwriting partnership of Benny Andersson and Björn Ulvaeus (often referred to as B&B) is the creative heart of ABBA, and their collaboration continues outside of the main group. In September 2024, Benny released a new album with his folk/traditional ensemble, Benny Andersson's Orkester (BAO), titled *Alla kan dansa* (Everyone Can Dance). The importance of this release to ABBA fans is twofold:

1. New Benny Compositions: The music is entirely composed by Benny Andersson, featuring his signature melodic genius.
2. New Björn Lyrics: Crucially, the songs feature lyrics written by Björn Ulvaeus.

This is the closest fans will get to new ABBA compositions and lyrics, as the duo’s creative process remains intact, even if the vocalists are different. Benny and Björn’s work extends beyond BAO, with their long-running musical projects like *Mamma Mia!* and *Kristina* continuing to see new life and revivals, further cementing their legacy as one of the most successful songwriting teams in history.

3. The ABBA Voyage Show: Four Classic Tracks Added to the Setlist

The spectacular *ABBA Voyage* concert residency in London, featuring the digital 'ABBA-tars,' has evolved since its debut and now offers a "new" listening experience by incorporating classic tracks that were not in the original setlist. To mark the show's third anniversary, four beloved ABBA songs were officially added to the *ABBA Voyage* setlist in 2024, creating a buzz of "new songs" among attendees. These additions are:

• "Super Trouper"
• "The Name of the Game"
• "Money, Money, Money"
• "Take a Chance on Me"

While not technically new recordings, their inclusion means the ABBA-tars perform these songs for the first time in the purpose-built ABBA Arena, making the show a fresh experience for both new visitors and repeat fans. The show’s updates ensure the *Voyage* experience remains a current and dynamic entity in the ABBA universe, keeping the music alive and relevant.

4. The Final Chapter: Why 'Voyage' Is Still the Latest Group Album

The 2021 album *Voyage* remains the ninth and, officially, the final studio album by the group. It ended a nearly 40-year hiatus and delivered ten new songs, including the singles "I Still Have Faith in You," "Don't Shut Me Down," and "Little Things." Despite the massive success of *Voyage* and the ongoing cultural phenomenon of the *ABBA Voyage* concert, the members have been clear about the future of the group. Björn Ulvaeus and Benny Andersson have consistently stated that *Voyage* was the definitive end of ABBA as a recording group. They even ruled out a group reunion for the 50th anniversary of their 1974 Eurovision win with "Waterloo." This confirms that any search for new ABBA group songs must inevitably lead back to the *Voyage* album, with all other "new" music coming from the members' individual endeavors.

5. The 2025 Anniversary: Will 'New' Unreleased Tracks Emerge?

Looking ahead to 2025, the ABBA world will celebrate the 50th anniversary of the group’s formation and the release of their self-titled album, *ABBA*. While a full-blown reunion has been ruled out, major anniversaries often lead to the release of previously unreleased material, deluxe box sets, or remastered collections. The excitement surrounding the 50th anniversary could potentially see the release of rare B-sides, alternative mixes, or even complete songs that were recorded but never finished for albums like *The Visitors* or *Voyage*. Fans of the Swedish pop group should keep an eye on official announcements for any special reissues or compilations that might feature material that is "new to the public," even if it wasn't recently recorded. The enduring legacy of ABBA ensures that the demand for their music, whether new or newly discovered, will continue for decades to come.
