Surprisingly, ‘Mamma Mia’ — which launched a musical and a popular film starring Meryl Streep and Pierce Brosnan — was not one of ABBA’s higher-charting songs in the U.S.

Throughout their run in the 1970s and ’80s, the Swedish sensation ABBA had 20 songs make it onto Billboard’s Hot 100 in the United States.

Four of those hits reached the top 10. Surprisingly, “Mamma Mia” — which launched a musical and a popular film starring Meryl Streep and Pierce Brosnan — was not one of ABBA’s higher-charting songs in the U.S., only reaching No. 32 on the Billboard chart.

Ahead of ABBA’s new album “Voyage” — the band’s first album in 40 years that comes out Nov. 5 — here’s a look at the 10 highest-charting ABBA songs in the United States.
