Momentum
This song has not appeared on a Rotation chart, so it has no score and no receipts. The rank history below is the ledger; a score is only published once the momentum run puts it on a chart.
Why it's here
The song became ABBA's seventh UK number one and their final chart-topper there in the 1970s, giving the group the most UK number-one singles of any act in that decade. [1] Billboard ranked it number two on their list of the 15 greatest ABBA songs, and Rolling Stone placed it ninth on their list of the 25 greatest ABBA songs. [2] Its distinctive opening was compared by Record World to Blue Swede's a cappella intro on 'Hooked on a Feeling,' calling it one of pop's most captivating acappella openings. [3]
In culture
Every place this record has lived. A solid chip states a fact and carries the citation that earns it; a dashed one is a connection somebody drew, and carries their name instead.
