The latest Abba 7" single to be added to my collection is an Austrian release of "Fernando" (b-side "Topical Loveland") which was released in Austria in March 1976.
The single first entered the Austrian charts on the 15th March 1976 where it took only 4 weeks to reach number 1 where it stayed for an amazing 14 weeks. In total the single spent 40 weeks in the charts (including a further three weeks at number 2 after moving off the top spot) eventually being certified 25 x Gold.
Unsurprisingly "Fernando" was the biggest selling single in Austria in 1976 however Abba had 7 records in the 1979 year end chart -
- Fernando (1)
- Dancing Queen (3)
- Money, Money, Money (7)
- Rock Me (14)
- S.O.S (16)
- Mamma Mia (28)
- Ring Ring (49)
