45 years ago, the buzzword in Europe wasn’t Brexit but ABBA, with the Swedish band winning the Eurovision Song Contest in the UK on April 6, 1974. Using the titular Napoleonic Wars battle as a metaphor for a love-hate relationship, ‘Waterloo’ became one of the best-selling singles in history, reaching no. 1 in charts across the world.
