ABBA release new video for 1979 single ‘Chiquitita’

Swedish pop group ABBA is back with a new music video. The group released the video of their single “Chiquitita”, featuring throwback performance footage and the song’s lyrics.

“Chiquitita” is the lead single from ABBA’s 1979 album, Voulez-Vous. In November, ABBA reunited to release Voyage, their ninth studio album and their first album in 40 years.

“When we got into the studio after 39 years, it was like no time had been lost,” the group said at the time. “This is what we really love to do, and to be able to do it at 70 is deep satisfaction, as well,” they added.

ABBA is promoting the album with ‘ABBA Voyage’, a new concert experience featuring their digital avatars accompanied by a live band.

ABBA consists of Agnetha Fältskog, Björn Ulvaeus, Benny Andersson and Anni-Frid Lyngstad.
