The 31 Best 'Mamma Mia' Songs, If You Aren't Just Playing Both Albums On Repeat

Wikimedia Commons

"Mamma Mia" is a movie based off original songs by the band ABBA. The songs are so catchy and just all around amazing, so I made a list of my favorite songs in "Mamma Mia" and "Mamma Mia: Here We Go Again."

1. 'When I Kissed The Teacher'

This song is pretty much all of us when we are finished with our final exams and reach freedom (from school, at least).

2. 'I Wonder' (Departure)

I just love the powerful voice singing with the background singers. Truly amazing sounding.

3. 'One Of Us'

I love how they're fighting but the song is upbeat.

4. 'Waterloo'

Almost died when they sang this in the second movie. A banger.

5. 'Why Did It Have To Be Me?'

Such a fun song and the scene was perfect.

6. 'I Have A Dream'

"I Have A Dream" from "Mamma Mia"

"I believeeeeeeee... in angels" is my favorite part of this song.

7. 'Kisses Of Fire'

I can't help but laugh at this song because the scene was just so funny to me.

8. 'Andante, Andante'

Lily James has a beautiful voice and this song amplifies it.

9. 'The Name Of The Game'

"The Name Of The Game" from "Mamma Mia"

Once again, I love the main voice with the background singers. Literally such a perfect sounding song, including the music.

10. 'Knowing Me, Knowing You'

I love the mix of male and female voices.

11. 'Angel Eyes'

I just love the lyrics tbh.

12. 'Mamma Mia'

"Mamma Mia" from the first movie

OG. Amazing. Song to belt out in the car. 11/10.

13. 'Dancing Queen'

"Dancing Queen" from "Mamma Mia"

If you hate dancing, this song will make you want to dance.

14. 'I've Been Waiting For You'

This lowkey could be a Christian song. So catchy.

15. 'Fernando'

When the beat drops, it is the greatest thing in the entire world. This song makes me so LIT.

16. 'My Love, My Life'

I cried. This song is beautiful but so sad.

17. 'Super Trouper'

"Super Trouper" from "Mamma Mia"

Supahpah Troopahpah... Such an iconic song.

18. 'The Day Before You Came'

Meryl Streep's voice is no match. Wow.

19. 'Honey, Honey'

This song is always in my head, and I don't mind it.

20. 'Money, Money, Money'

Everyone can relate to this song...

21. 'Our Last Summer'

Harry's voice steals this song, meaning his voice is the absolute best out of all of them. But I love how Bill, Harry, and Sam sing an entire song together.

22. 'Lay All Your Love On Me'

Sky + Sophie = goals and this song proves it.

23. 'Gimme! Gimme! Gimme! (A Man After Midnight)'

Catchy and so upbeat.

24. 'Voulez-Vous'

I love the music in this song and everyone just sounds so great together.

25. 'SOS'

Oh Pierce Brosnan, you're trying and I appreciate the effort in this song. He definitely sounds his best here.

26. 'Does Your Mother Know?'

Christine Baranski's voice in this song is just amazing.

27. 'Slipping Through My Fingers'

Its a slow song, but I don't mind it. It's so catchy and soothing.

28. 'The Winner Takes It All'

Another powerful solo by Meryl Streep.

29. 'When All Is Said And Done'

Such a happy song

30. 'Take A Chance On Me'

This scene is amazing and this song is perfect.

31. 'Thank You For The Music'

No, thank YOU, Amanda, for the music.

25 Beatles Lyrics: Your Go-To Guide for Every Situation

The Best Lines from the Fab Four

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Student Life

Waitlisted for a College Class? Here's What to Do!

Dealing with the inevitable realities of college life.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

The Best Lines from the Fab Four

And in the end, the love you take is equal to the love you make

The sun is up, the sky is blue, it's beautiful and so are you

Love is old, love is new, love is all, love is you

There's nowhere you can be that isn't where you're meant to be

Life is very short, and there's no time for fussing and fighting, my friend

He say, "I know you, you know me", One thing I can tell you is you got to be free

Oh please, say to me, You'll let me be your man. And please say to me, You'll let me hold your hand

It was twenty years ago today, Sgt. Pepper taught the band to play. They've been going in and out of style, but they're guaranteed to raise a smile

Living is easy with eyes closed, misunderstanding all you see

Can you hear me? When it rains and shine, it's just a state of mind

Little darling, it's been long cold lonely winter. Little darling, it feels like years since it' s been here. Here comes the sun, Here comes the sun, and I say it's alright

We danced through the night and we held each other tight, and before too long I fell in love with her. Now, I'll never dance with another when I saw her standing there

I love you, I love you, I love you, that's all I want to say

You say you want a revolution. Well you know, we all want to change the world

All the lonely people, where do they all come from. All the lonely people, where do they all belong

Oh, I get by with a little help from my friends

Hey Jude, don't make it bad. Take a sad song and make it better

Yesterday, all my troubles seemed so far away. Now it looks as though they're here to stay. Oh, I believe in yesterday

And when the brokenhearted people, living in the world agree, there will be an answer, let it be.

And anytime you feel the pain, Hey Jude, refrain. Don't carry the world upon your shoulders

I'll give you all I got to give if you say you'll love me too. I may not have a lot to give but what I got I'll give to you. I don't care too much for money. Money can't buy me love

All you need is love, love is all you need

Whisper words of wisdom, let it be

Blackbird singing in the dead of night, Take these broken wings and learn to fly. All your life, You were only waiting for this moment to arise

Though I know I'll never lose affection, for people and things that went before. I know I'll often stop and think about them. In my life, I love you more

Obviously the best superpower.
