Best Answer

Not sure exactly what you mean by your question, but every song released by ABBA, with only one exception, was written by them, specifically by lyricist Bjorn Ulvaeus and composer Benny Andersson. On many of their early songs, manager Stig Anderson was also credited (his English-language writing skills were better) and on one early hit (Ring Ring) Neil Sedaka helped write English lyrics. That's something like 150 tracks, including foreign language versions of the same songs. (Abba recorded in Spanish, Swedish, German and French.)

The one track Abba released that wasn't written by them was a medley of American folk tunes on their third album, "Abba".

How many songs did ABBA recorded?

Abba recorded 111 songs, but at least 10 of them were recorded in Spanish in the CD Collection called "Oro" which was the Spanish equivalent of of the English CD called "GOLD". They also recorded many of their songs in French and Swedish (Waterloo) and many others in German. These can be heard in the 4-disc CD collection called "ABBA: The Definitive Collection". The previous writer said they only made five of their songs into Spanish, which is obviously in error as ecidenced by "ORO".


How many ABBA sing of by heart?

I have no idea what this question is asking. But there were four members of the Swedish group ABBA, five if you count Sig Anderson, considered by some to be the fifth member of ABBA, since he co-wrote many songs with Benny and Bjorn.Being that there is no song title, and the only clue to the title for which you are searching is the word "of," and there being no ABBA songs that are titled simply "Of," a song by song search is the only option to provide an answer. There are seven songs that contain the word of. These are below with those who performed them:Fanfare of the 1981 Ice Hockey World Championship - None, this was instrumental only.Kisses of Fire (Track 10 on Voulez-vous) - Benny Andersson, Frida Lyngstad, Agnetha Fältskog and Björn UlvaeusMedley: Pick a Bale of Cotton/On Top of Old Smokey/Midnight Special (Track 13 on ABBA) - Benny Andersson, Frida Lyngstad, Agnetha Fältskog and Björn UlvaeusThe Name of the Game (Track 4 on The Album) - Benny Andersson, Stig Anderson and Björn UlvaeusOne of Us (Track 6 on The Visitors) - Benny Andersson, Agnetha Faltskog, and Björn Ulvaeus.She's My Kind of Girl (Track 10 on Ring Ring) - Benny Andersson, and Björn Ulvaeus.Two for the Price of One (Track 7 on The Visitors) - Benny Andersson, and Björn Ulvaeus.
