Mamma Mia! promoting Madonna and Confessions on a Dance Floor
From the official website of Mamma Mia!, the worlwide acclaimed show created using existing Abba songs within the format of a new, original musical:
“Mamma Mia!‘s Benny Andersson and Björn Ulvaeus have broken their strict “no sample” rule to grant Madonna the honour of using a song from their smash hit Broadway musical. Madonna’s new single “Hung Up” will feature a sample of ABBA’s “Gimme! Gimme! Gimme!” making her one of the rare artists to be endorsed by the Super Group.
Only The Fugees were granted the honour when they used a sample from “The Name Of The Game” in their 1996 track “Rumble in the Jungle”. “Hung Up” is the first single from the album “Confessions on a Dance Floor” due out on 14 November.”
