On September 12, 2025, the world will mark 28 years since the passing of Stig Anderson, the visionary founder of Polar Music, songwriter, producer, and the man who guided ABBA to global fame. Anderson died of a sudden heart attack in 1997, but his influence continues to echo through generations. Beyond business, he was a creative force, co-writing some of ABBA’s most iconic hits: “Waterloo,” “Mamma Mia,” “S.O.S.,” “Fernando,” “Dancing Queen,” “Knowing Me, Knowing You,” and “The Name of the Game.” These songs are not just part of ABBA’s catalog—they are part of the soundtrack of the modern world. His funeral, broadcast live on Swedish television, was an honor usually reserved for heads of state or royalty, a testament to his national and cultural significance. Nearly three decades on, Stig Anderson is remembered not only as ABBA’s manager, but as the architect of their legacy—an architect whose vision turned a Swedish pop group into one of the greatest music phenomena in history.
