Abba will never reform, says Björn Ulvaeus

Abba's Björn Ulvaeus has told the Sunday Telegraph that the band will never perform on stage again, saying there is no motivation to reform.

I think it's safe to assume that if Abba were ever going to reform they'd have done it already, though I suppose they say 'never say never'. Except Bjorn Ulvaeus just has. Speaking to the Sunday Telegraph as their Abba-song musical 'Mamma Mia' hits the big screen, Ulvaeus said this weekend: "We will never appear on stage again. There is simply no motivation to re-group. Money is not a factor and we would like people to remember us as we were - Young, exuberant, full of energy and ambition. I remember Robert Plant saying Led Zeppelin were a cover band now because they cover all their own stuff. I think that hit the nail on the head".
