...with choreography that owes a significant debt of influence to a number in the first film.

Don't know if this ha previously been mentioned but Waterloo is defiantly included.
In the first film a young Donna explains that she met Harry in Paris, so the whole song is sent in a Parisian bar.

I am so looking forward to this. I’m not normally one to go to films on the first day of release. Though in this case I will make an exception. What is there not to love about it? ABBA + Cher + lots of colourful lyrca.
This is going to be cheesy as hell, but what the heck, it’s going to be great fun. What’s more, we get to hear Brosnan’s dulcet tones all over again! It will be great going to watch the film cold as you get to enjoy the film without knowing when or which songs are going to be used. I know there are a few confirmations from the cast as well as Benny and Björn, but I hope they throw in a few surprise choices as well. Personally, I would love PB to sing/murder Knowing Me, Knowing You just so I can do the AH HA’s in the cinema. Hopefully they will do a sing a long version at some point.

Well I can't wait to see it either. It ain't going to win any Oscars but who cares! A great summer cheese fest with great music, although not sure of the vocals yet! I'm sure Cher will give her all though.

Thanks for posting this. I’ve just had a listen now. Who is the guy singing as it sounds a bit weird in that it doesn’t seem to match up with the key of the song. Though I suppose the same could be said for Pierce Brosnan and his “singing” in the original film!

^ It sounds like it could have been lifted straight from here:
Sounds bloody awful...

I don't like how Hugh Skinner sings.

I actually saw a clip (on Twitter I think?). I will try and find it again and have it posted.
I have to go out tonight however I will have a search for it Thursday night.

Don't know if this worked or not. Can anyone a bit more tech savy and with more time fix this?

I must say, I had a little cry looking at them. I am sphincter clenchingly excited about it. In fact, I can't remember a time when my sphincter has been so clenched.

Having had a look at the photo’s, it’s amazing how much talent is in that studio both in terms of writing and vocal ability. Even after 30years, I bet they can still create some great music. It will be a great day when the songs get released. If todays pop singers want to get advice about crafting great music, then they should spend some time with these guys. They would get a masterclass, and no auto tuning either.

Fascinating - in the code-word sense - to hear how far back in the mix they've kept Andy Garcia's voice. Perhaps they learned something from the Pierce Brosnan debacle in the first film.
Cher sounds pretty good.

Just had a listen now and it sounds really good. Cher is going to be fantastic in this. Why are the producers teasing us?! Don’t wait another month, just get the film released like NOW!!!

It sounded unbalanced to me. It should either have been a Cher solo, or a duet with someone who could sing properly, so there would have been no need to turn the volume down on AG's voice (or up on everything else).

See, I'm curious about this song. As great as song as it is, working on the premise that the lyrics of the songs selected actually move the story forward- I'm curious as to how they're gonna shoehorn this one in.
I's clearly about someone called Fernando who at some point was at war.
So unless there's a character being introduced called Fernando, or Frenando is someone being referred to in memory, again I ask, how are they gonna shoehorn it in?
Guess time will tell.
Cher's voice is do distinctive, isn't it?

Pretty sure they already confirmed Andy Garcia's character is named Fernando...
