Issue 151 of Eumundi

It’s 50yrs since ABBA released Dancing Queen as the lead single from their 4th album, Arrival. Dancing Queen reached number 1 in 15 countries including Australia, and was the only number 1 hit for ABBA in the USA. Five decades later you can still hear Dancing Queen on the airwaves, at karaoke parties, Mardi Gras celebrations and wedding receptions.
ABBA formed in Sweden in 1972 but came to attention outside of their home country when they won the Eurovision Song Contest in 1974 with Waterloo. Strangely, the stigma of winning Eurovision made it difficult for ABBA to be taken seriously. Mamma Mia, from their third album, returned them to the UK number 1 spot, and was number 1 for 10 weeks in Australia. December 1977 saw the release of ABBA: The Album, their 5th album, which included the hits The Name of the Game and Take a Chance on Me.
The hits kept coming, but in 1982 the group took a temporary break. A decade passed before the greatest hits album ABBA Gold and a quirky 1994 Australian film Muriel’s Wedding revived a nostalgic yearning for ABBA’s songs. The musical Mamma Mia! premiered in London in 1999 and continues to tour the world. Almost 40yrs after their temporary break, the group released their 9th album Voyage in 2021. In 2025 Dancing Queen reached 1B views on YouTube.

Eumundi Voice recently attended The Sea Carries Flowers Too exhibition at Leighton Contemporary Art Gallery in Noosaville – a captivating exhibition that brings together the distinctive works of Australian landscape painter Amy Wright and Cornwall-based textile artist Adam Halls.
Amy’s vibrant, memory-driven paintings capture the beauty of wild landscapes through rich textures and layered detail, while Adam’s intricate stitched works are inspired by the subtle patterns and colours found in nature. Both artists offered a fascinating insight into their creative processes, from Amy’s practice of working across multiple canvases simultaneously to Adam’s unique blend of machine and hand stitching. The exhibition explores the interconnected relationships between flora, landscapes, oceans and light, creating a stunning visual dialogue between the 2 artists.
The Sea Carries Flowers Too is on display until 2 October at Leighton Contemporary Art Gallery, 5/64 Gateway Dr, Noosaville. Visit: leightoncontemporary.com.
