This, honestly.

Songs like Dancing Queen and We Will Rock You are inarguably one of the most remembered songs of all time. It is really hard to just be able to conclude with a singular answer.

Both legends tho

[Rhiannon]

 ABBA has more classics yeah, and Queen has the biggest classic of all classics: Bohemian Rhapsody.

 

Both are one the biggest music acts of all time

Abba. Wtf is bohemian rhapsody omg, I will give them that we will rock you is more known than any abba song though 

[dangerousbutera]

As much as I’d love to say ABBA, Queen’s Spotify streams are something else. Dancing Queen still feels like a bigger classic than Bohemian Rhapsody to me though, but maybe I’m bias

Queen by far.

Bohemian Rhapsody

We Will Rock You

I Want to Break Free

We Are The Champions

Another One Bites The Dust

Don’t Stop Me Now

 

Now come on now, all of these songs are massive classics known by every generation. ABBA can’t even compete with their relevance with younger generations.

[Achilles.]

I’m gay so the answer is ABBA.

[jdanton2]

Queen have more streams on Spotify now but back in the 70's and 80's ABBA were much bigger world wide in sales.

[andresg770]

It's tough bc I think ABBA have more classics WW overall (Mamma Mia, Super Trouper, Fernando, Waterloo, Gimme x3, Lay All Your Love on Me, etc.), but Queen has the bigger classics (like We Will Rock You, We Are the Champions, and Bohemian Rhapsody).

[ToMmY]

I love ABBA but the right answer is Queen.
