1976 Disco Hit Ranked Among 'Best Pop Songs of All Time' Became Group's First & Only No. 1 Song 49 Years Ago Today ...Saudi Arabia

So it might surprise listeners to learn that even though ABBA did have four top ten hits on the Billboard Hot 100, only one of those went to #1. Released in Dec. 1976, "Dancing Queen" became ABBA's first and only absolute chart-topper on April 9, 1977.

Recorded in August 1975, "Dancing Queen" — ABBA's first foray into disco territory — was influenced by George McCrae’s "Rock Your Baby" and "the New Orleans rhythm on the 1972 album Dr John’s Gumbo," according to The Independent.

"Dancing Queen" didn't just top the charts all over the globe, it went on to be inducted into the Grammy Hall of Fame in 2015. Billboard even ranked the track the second-best pop song of all time.

If ABBA could only hit #1 once, "Dancing Queen" was certainly the right song to win the crown.
