Maybe we're not so crabby about Sweden taking our Eurovision record after all!

The Eurovision happened in Liverpool over the weekend, and Loreen representing Sweden secured the win on behalf of her country.

She had been one of the favourites from the beginning, having already won the competition back in 2012.

However she took not one but two precious records away from us. We're no longer the country with the most Eurovision wins, and on top of that, Johnny Logan is no longer the only person to have won twice!

As Sweden was announced as the winner, it was quickly noted that seeing as Sweden will host next year's Eurovision, it will mark the 50th anniversary of Abba winning the song contest in 1974 with Waterloo.

Which has everyone saying that same thing: Will Abba get back together for one-night-only lifetime reunion at next year's Eurovision to celebrate?

When Abba won back in 1974, it sparked their legendary pop career and helped launch their international success.

Abba stopped touring in recording in 1981, and 40 years passed without any tours or new albums.

That was until last year when the Swedish pop group, now all in their 70s, returned to record a comeback album, and announce their unique live event 'Abba Voyage'.

Debuting back in May of last year, Abba Voyage is a virtual live show, which features Abba avatars (‘Abba-tars’) where Agnetha, Benny, Bjorn, and Anni-Frid, perform a concert as computer-generated younger versions of themselves.

CGI Abba are all well in good, but a live performance from all 4 members for the first time in over 40 years? We'll be crossing everything we have!

It is the perfect opportunity after all 😏
