Fans Choose ABBA’s ‘I Still Have Faith in You’ and ‘Don’t Shut Me Down’ as This Week’s Favorite New Music
The results are in, and in a week of big music releases, ABBA’s return has topped this week’s fan-voted new music poll.
Music fans voted in a poll that was published Friday (Sept. 3) on Billboard, choosing the legendary pop group’s two new singles “I Still Have Faith in You” and “Don’t Shut Me Down” as their favorite new music release of the past week.
“You’ve waited 40 years for a new ABBA song and now there are two!” ABBA’s social media accounts declared on Thursday (Sept. 2) upon the unveiling of the pair of songs that will be included on their new album Voyage, which is set for a Nov. 5 release.
ABBA’s new tunes brought in 33.26% of the vote, narrowly inching ahead of Lady Gaga’s Dawn of Chromatica remix album, which had 32.81% of the vote.
The ABBA tracks beat out both Kanye West and Drake’s new albums — which placed in third and fourth place, respectively — in this week’s readers poll. (Elsewhere, Kanye’s Donda just debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 albums chart.)
