AGNETHA MAKES A UNIVERSAL RETURN
Siren songstress from ABBA has new album “A” due on May 13
Brand new single “When You Really Loved Someone”out today!
STOCKHOLM, March 11, 2013 – “Never thought that I’d ever sing again. But hearing the first three songs, I just couldn’t say no!”
With these words, one of popular music’s most recognisable and celebrated names of the past 40 years – Agnetha Fältskog – signals her return to the spotlight. The siren songstress from ABBA is coming back with a new album “A”, due for release in May and preceded by a curtain-raising track, “When You Really Loved Someone,” which is available internationally as a single to buy from TODAY, Monday March 11. Agnetha’s new official website, Facebook, Twitter (@AgnethaOfficial) and VEVO channel featuring the brand new video for “When You Really Loved Someone” will all be live from 10am UK time today.
Agnetha has been working with renowned, Grammy-nominated songwriter/producer Jörgen Elofsson – who has been responsible for hits by Britney Spears, Kelly Clarkson, Celine Dion and Westlife, among others – and acclaimed producer/arranger Peter Nordahl on her brand new album.
“She wanted to make music again,” says Elofsson, “We could feel that. She had been thinking about it. Basically, she’s a musician, a songwriter/singer who hasn’t done that for a while. We saw her open up, become much happier, with music again in her life.”
“A” features one of Agnetha first co-writes in many years: “I hadn’t written any music for a long, long time,” she says. “But I sat at the piano, and suddenly it was there.”
Anticipated by millions of ABBA fans worldwide, Agnetha’s brand new material is being released by Universal Music Group, the global music leader. Max Hole, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, Universal Music Group International, added: “You can imagine the excitement that all of us felt at the prospect of Agnetha making new music. So we were determined that she would choose Universal to bring that music to the world, and we are gratified that she did. This is a dream project for so many people inside our company, and for Agnetha’s fans around the globe.”
The most anticipated new album of 2013, “A” was recorded and produced by Jörgen Elofsson and Peter Nordahl: “We wanted to make this as if Agnetha hadn’t entered ABBA,” says Elofsson. “We were interested in what she sounded like if she hadn’t been in the group. And yet it’s important that she comes across as we remember her to be”

"I called Benny to get his blessing"
The songwriter Jörgen Elofsson about the collaboration with Agnetha Fältskog
The album was finished. Agnetha Fältskog was satisfied. Songwriter Jörgen Elofsson was satisfied. He still wanted to talk about it with a former member of ABBA.
-When we were finished with the album I called Benny, says Jörgen Elofsson. I wanted the pope's blessing.
He received it.
-I was very nervous, but it was fun to play it for him, says Jörgen Elofsson, 51. Benny Andersson was very kind and said it was her best solo album after the ABBA-years.
Agnetha Fältskog's album "A" will be released on May 13. The idea appeared a few years ago. Jörgen Elofsson and the producer Peter Nordahl wanted to make an album - most of all with Agnetha Fältskog.
"She is a hero"
-How do you get a hold of her? We had a few contacts and finally we got to meet her, says Jörgen Elofsson. We arrived at her house too early and nervously shook in the car while we waited. Agnetha is a hero to both of us. But when we met she was really nice.
There were a few finished songs back then in September 2011.
-I had 15 songs which and chose three which we played for Agnetha. She got to choose the one she liked the most. It was "The One Who Loves You Now", the first one we recorded.
Another song was the new single "When You Really Loved Someone". The rest was written during the recording.
-She is an incredible storyteller, says Jörgen Elofsson. We are an instrument so that she can sing again.
