Madonna's new single, "Hung Up" will feature a sample of ABBA's 1979 hit "Gimme Gimme Gimme."
ABBA's Benny Andersson and Bjorn Ulvaeus have rarely deviated from their strict "no sample" rule for this Madonna single.
The only other artist to receive sampling permission from ABBA was The Fugees, who sampled "The Name of the Game" for their 1996 song "Rumble in the Jungle."
"Hung Up" is the first single from Madonna's upcoming album "Confessions On A Dance Floor," which will be released on November 14. |  |
