Abba Date - 5th June 1978

On the 5th June 1978 Abba's single "Eagle / Thank You For The Music" entered the Australian chart where it would stay for six weeks peaking at number 82.

This low chart position does seem a little strange especially as the groups previous single "Take A Chance On Me" reached number 12 and the group's next single "Summer Night City" reached number 13.

Although this wild variation in chart positions continued into 1979 / early 1980 with the next five Abba singles having varying chart success -

  • "Chiquitita" - Number 4
  • "Does Your Mother Know" - Number 7
  • "Voulez-Vous" - Number 79
  • "Gimme! Gimme! Gimme!" - Number 8
  • "I Have A Dream" - Number 64
