ABBA joins TikTok

#DancingQueenChallenge may have been trending on TikTok for months already, but ABBA was not present on the social media platform... until now! 

According to a press release, ABBA's music was the most requested from an act without a presence on TikTok. This all changed Sunday night when the band made their debut, uploading a video of a piano version of "Dancing Queen." The video showed just a set of hands playing the catchy refrain. 

A second video was then uploaded to their new TikTok page on Monday morning, teasing that on September 2, a new experience called the "ABBAVoyage" will be launched. The video showed a dawn-rising graphic with the date and was captioned by saying, "Thank you for waiting, the journey is about to begin. Agnetha, Björn, Benny, Anni-Frid.

Do you know what else this means? ABBA's music is now officially available to TikTokers on the Sounds page. 

• TikTok Head of Music Operations Paul Houricanin said in a statement, "We are so excited to welcome Agnetha, Björn, Benny and Anni-Frid to TikTok, bringing their phenomenal music to fans both new and old around the world. With one of the most recognisable music catalogues ever created, their unique craft of songwriting truly transcends generations and has inspired music lovers for decades. Our community have already shown us with their own creations that this is the music they've been waiting for and we're excited to see how ABBA can inspire a new generation of fans, sparking yet another wave of music creativity with the hits that have defined pop for so long."
