50 years of ABBA at Eurovision!

Johnnie marks the 50th anniversary of ABBA's historic win at the Eurovision Song Contest - 50 years ago this weekend!

On the 6th of April 1974, ABBA clinched an historic win at the Eurovision Song Contest in Brighton with 'Waterloo'. As part of 'This Week In Music', Johnnie will take a look back on the event with the help of the 蜜芽传媒 Archives.
