ATeens Reunion: New Single “Iconic” & 2026 Comeback Details

Look, if you grew up in the late 90s or early 2000s, your inner child is probably screaming right now. After 20 long years of silence, the A*Teens are officially back.

Marie, Sara, Dhani, and Amit have finally reunited, and they just dropped a brand-new single that couldn’t be named anything else: “Iconic.” It’s their first piece of new music in over two decades, and honestly? It’s about time.

More Than Just “The ABBA Kids”

When A*Teens first hit the scene in 1998, they had a massive task: reinventing ABBA for a new generation. They didn’t just succeed; they exploded. Their debut, The ABBA Generation, went Gold or Platinum in 22 countries.

But they weren’t just a cover band. They quickly evolved into a pop powerhouse in their own right, giving us the absolute bangers that defined our middle school dances:

  • “Upside Down” (admit it, you still know the choreo)

  • “Halfway Around The World”

  • “Floorfiller”

With over 6 million albums sold, they became one of Sweden’s most successful exports, touring with the likes of Britney Spears and Justin Timberlake back when denim-on-denim was the height of fashion.

They Never Truly Left

Even while the group was on hiatus, their music kept popping up in our favorite movies. From the end credits of Lilo & Stitch to The Princess Diaries, they’ve always been part of the soundtrack of our lives. They even recently popped up in the 2024 Marvel blockbuster Venom: The Last Dance with a fresh remix of “Dancing Queen.”

Why We’re Obsessed with “Iconic”

“Iconic” isn’t just a nostalgia trip—it’s a victory lap. It carries that classic Swedish pop DNA (which, let’s be real, is the best kind of pop) but feels fresh enough for 2026.

It’s rare to see a group from that era reunite with all the original members and still have that same spark. Watching Marie, Sara, Dhani, and Amit back together feels like a core memory being unlocked for millions of fans across the globe.

The Verdict? If you need a shot of pure, unadulterated joy in your playlist, go stream “Iconic.” The kings and queens of Swedish pop are back on their throne.
