Björn Ulvaeus Criticizes Trump's Use of ABBA Music in Campaign

The ABBA star disapproves of Trump's campaign playing their music, questioning the understanding of song lyrics.

  • Donald Trump's campaign has repeatedly used ABBA songs during his rallies, which has drawn criticism from band member Björn Ulvaeus.
  • Ulvaeus expressed his disapproval, stating that ABBA never allowed their music to be used in political contexts.
  • He humorously pointed out that the song 'The Winner Takes It All' is about losing, suggesting Trump may not have paid attention to the lyrics.
  • Both ABBA and their music label, Universal, have previously requested the campaign to stop using their music.
  • Trump's campaign team maintains they have the right to play the music in public settings, a claim Ulvaeus disputes.
