Led By The International Hit "The Winner Takes It All" Super Trouper Was The Group's Sixth Chart-Topping Album In The UK. It Was Also The Best-Selling Album In Britain For 1980. Super Trouper Was First Released On CD In 1983 By Polar Music International In The Early 1980s By Polydor And In The Late 1980s By Atlantic Records For The US. The Album Has Been Reissued In Digitally Remastered Form Four Times First In 1997 Then In 2001 Again In 2005 As Part Of The Complete Studio Recordings Box Set And As A Deluxe Edition Containing A Bonus DVD In 2011. The Previous Year's Divorce Between Björn And Agnetha Was Explored In "The Winner Takes It All" And The Members' Lives In Stockholm High Society Circles Coloured The Lyrics For "On And On And On". Other Well-Known Songs On The Album Include The Hit Single Title Track "Super Trouper" As Well As The Electro-Dance Of "Lay All Your Love On Me". Probably Due To The Disco Backlash At That Time The Album Saw ABBA Returning To A More Straightforward Pop Sound As Opposed To The Preceding And Noticeably More Dance-Oriented Voulez-Vous Album. The Album Closed With "The Way Old Friends Do" Which Was Recorded Live A Year Earlier During Their 1979 Concert Tour.
