=== ABBA and Swedish secular leftists antipathy===
The most successful Euro disco group was ABBA.
Although the Swedish group ABBA did not incorporate atheistic themes within their music, Björn Ulvaeus is now an outspoken advocate of "godlessness".<ref>[http://blogs.wsj.com/speakeasy/2013/09/10/abba-founder-godlessness-makes-swedens-pop-music-great/ ABBA Founder: Godlessness Makes Sweden’s Pop Music Great], Wall Street Journal</ref>
