"Mamma Mia" was based on ABBA's biggest hit songs and were combined to create a story. So the theme for Mamma Mia would be the ABBA songs.

The most popular song from "Mamma Mia!" is arguably "Dancing Queen," originally by ABBA. This iconic track captures the essence of joy and nostalgia, making it a favorite among audiences. Its catchy melody and uplifting lyrics contribute to its enduring popularity, both in the musical and the film adaptations. Other notable songs include "Mamma Mia" and "Take a Chance on Me," but "Dancing Queen" remains the standout hit.
"Mamma Mia!" (2008) was a commercial success, grossing over $610 million worldwide against a production budget of approximately $52 million. The film, based on the hit musical featuring ABBA songs, became one of the highest-grossing musicals of all time. Its popularity led to a sequel, "Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again," released in 2018, which also performed well at the box office.
Mamma Mia is the first track on the ABBA's third album (simply called ABBA). released on April 21, 1975. It was actually the last song recorded for the album and it was never intended to be a single. But a music video produced for the song (directed by future Oscar-nominee Lasse Halstrom), became a huge hit in Australia, prompting ABBA's record company Polar to release the single worldwide. Many people believe this was the first proven example of the potential of music video. (MTV was launched six years later.)

probably so because since the first movie was a hit then they would want some money so that way, yes they would probably make another mamma mia movie. AND MAMMA MIA ISNT A PERSON THATS FAT!
I think it was Ring Ring in 1972.
No, "Mamma Mia" is not a true story. It is a fictional story written by Catherine Johnson, with music and lyrics by Benny Andersson and Björn Ulvaeus from ABBA, and inspired by the songs of the Swedish pop group.
There were lots, but some of the biggest were Mamma Mia, Dancing Queen, Waterloo, SOS and Fernando.

no, she just covered the songs for her role as Donna Sheridan in Mamma Mia the movie.
Depends what you consider to be a hit. ABBA's first chart single in the UK was Waterloo, which peaked at #1 in 1974. Their next release was "Ring Ring", which was actually a remix of a 1973 single. The 1974 version reached #32 in the UK. Their next single, "So Long" only reached #91. But in 1975, "I Do, I Do, I Do, I Do, I Do" cracked the top 40, peaking at #38. Their next top 10 was "S.O.S.", which reached #6. ABBA's next single was their second #1 hit in the UK, "Mamma Mia".
