ABBA THE ALBUMS PRESENTS-
Andersson-Ulvaeus SONGS !
This is a provisional list of a lifetime of known songs written by Swedish songwriters, BENNY ANDERSSON and BJORN ULVAEUS, This listing has been updated as of November 2012. Also listed are songs written by Benny and/ or Bjorn working with with other songwriters such as Stig Anderson, Tim Rice, Kristina Lugn, Ylva Eggehorn, Peter Himmelstrand, or Svenne Hedlund.
The songs are listed by the year the song was initially recorded or in a few cases performed publicly. If the year the song was recorded is not known then the year of release is used instead. For example- Since we know exactly when all of ABBA's songs are recorded they generally listed in the year they were recorded not in the year they were released. .
Some pieces of songs written by BENNY ANDERSSON and BJORN ULVAEUS have been recycled in other songs-I haven't addressed that issue in this list. Also sometimes, the melody for new songs might have been written years before, and then dragged up for current usage. More than one BAO song fits that bill-I have noted some but not all of these instances. .
Alternate language versions of songs are only included when Bjorn and/or Benny were clearly involved with both versions..
This listing includes a few possibly traditional songs that I am not sure if they written by Bjorn and/or Benny.
This listing does include many of B&B's finished unreleased songs, but song titles that were merely unrecorded working titles are not included. .
This list is not guaranteed accurate or complete...
All
songs are written by Andersson-Ulvaeus unless otherwise noted. I have included the original artist on some of these songs, but that part of the chart is unfinished..
