50 years after Abba’s ESC victory: Kitschy but still cult media

Sweden, of all places, is set to host the music competition next. In 2024 of all places. What a miraculous coincidence! It’s been exactly 50 years since a small band from Sweden won the Grand Prix d’ Eurovision and made music history. “Waterloo” becomes a hit and the career of Abba begins.
