Agnetha Then and Now | home
Early Years 2
1968
Writing by candlelight to set the mood.
She was a romanticaly minded girl.
"I write my love songs under the
influence of 2 flickering candles
on my piano. They bring out the
romance in me." said Agnetha.
May 1968 Agnetha and Dieter Zimmerman became engaged.
Already she was working that flirty smile!
Late in 1968 Agnetha toured with Sten and Stanly and Marianne Koch, and even
performed on TV with them.
1969
In October of 1969 Agnetha and Björn announced their engagment.
Then they moved to a 3 bedroom apartment on Lilla Essingen in Stockholm.
"Nu Skall Vi Opp Opp Opp"
White Triumph
Spitfire that she bought with her
first earnings from records in 1969.
It had red interior.
This car was recently sold on Ebay in 2004 after being restored in Germany.
It is the same serial number as Agnetha's car, so this actually is her old car.
During her folkpark tour in 1970, Agnetha read phycology books while riding in the
tour bus. She performed 42 concerts that summer and traveled with Bert Åke Varg.

She also wore it with ABBA after altering it a bit.
