ABBA Demands Trump Stop Using Their Music at Campaign Rallies
Swedish pop group ABBA and their record label have requested that U.S. Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump cease using their music and videos at his campaign rallies. This follows ABBA's songs being played at a rally in Minnesota. The band supports their label's demand, which was issued due to a lack of permission.
Swedish pop sensation ABBA has called on U.S. Republican presidential contender Donald Trump to halt the use of their music and videos at his campaign events, according to their record label.
ABBA hits such as 'The Winner Takes It All,' 'Money, Money, Money,' and 'Dancing Queen' were reportedly featured at a July 27 Minnesota rally, as reported by Svenska Dagbladet.
Universal Music, ABBA's label, stated that no permission was given for the music's use, and it has demanded the immediate removal of these media. The band chose not to comment further, fully backing Universal's stance, while the Trump campaign has yet to respond.
