STOCKHOLM (AP) -- Agnetha Faltskog, one of the former members of Swedish pop
band ABBA, is preparing for a comeback and has returned to the recording studio
after more than eight years of musical silence.
The singer's spokesman, Staffan Linde, told The Associated Press on Thursday
that Faltskog, 62, is working alongside Swedish songwriter Jorgen
Elofsson, who has previously penned and produced tunes for Britney Spears,
Celine Dion and the boy band Westlife. He could not say when the new album will
be released.
After ABBA split in the early 1980s, Faltskog pursued a solo career for a few
years, but then went into a music hiatus for most of the 1990s. Her last album,
"My Colouring Book," contained cover songs and was released in
2004.
