The 40 song music run includes She Loves You, Glad All Over, You’re My World, Jumpin’ Jack Flash, Something Tells Me I’m Into Something Good, Shout, Ferry Cross The Mersey and more.

"Every song is a classic and it amazes me every time that everyone, teenagers up to 80 years old, know all the lyrics and sing- a-long.

"It just goes to show that people latch onto good music even if they weren't born yet."

2. Thank You For The Music - The ultimate ABBA party
