"Waterloo" by ABBA is featured on ABBA: You Can Dance, Just Dance Now (for players who subscribed before April 9, 2024), and Just Dance+. It was also featured on Just Dance Unlimited and 舞力无限, but was removed.
Appearance of the Dancers[]
The routine is performed by four dancers (two males and two females) who represent the members of ABBA and wear the clothes worn by them in the music video of the song, as well as at their performance of the song at the Eurovision Song Contest 1974.
P1[]
P1 is Benny. He has very short brown hair and wears a blue shirt with buttons, black pants, and black boots.
P2[]
P2 is Frida. She has short curly brown hair and wears a white shirt, a pink and white striped belt, an orange and white skirt, and red boots.
P3[]
P3 is Agnetha. She has long blonde hair. She wears a blue beanie, a blue shirt, blue pants with a silver belt, and black boots.
P4[]
P4 is Björn. He has short brown hair and he wears a black shirt with white buttons, a silver belt, black pants, and black boots.
Background[]
The routine takes place on a dark stage. During the intro, two white spotlights light up over the coaches (first P3 and P4, and then P1 and P2), and then the entire scenery becomes lighter, revealing more details.
The stage has a grey-beige square in the middle with a semicircle on the top and three big semicircles behind the coaches. Two of them are placed on a pedestal, and the smallest one has ellipses around another semicircle, resembling a half-cut citrus fruit. There are also protruding bronze brown squares on the sides, a faint golden disco ball on the top left and other faint golden lights on the top. White spotlights occasionally light up on the coaches throughout the routine.
When the coaches perform their Gold Moves, the background becomes darker all of a sudden and lights up progressively. As soon as the chorus starts, small circular lights light up around the circles one after the other in a fast motion or together.
At the end of the routine, the background fades to black slowly.
Gold Moves[]
There are 2 Gold Moves in this routine, both of which are the same:
Both Gold Moves: Spin around and put your hands near your hips. This is a left-to-right Wave Gold Move.

Trivia[]
General[]
- Waterloo is the second song in the franchise to be a Eurovision Song Contest winner, after Satellite.
- In the main series, "Wa-Wa-Wa" is not displayed in the lyrics.
- In the announcement trailer for ABBA: You Can Dance, the lyrics color is green instead of yellow.[6]
Routine[]
- Waterloo is the Quartet with the lowest number of unique pictograms in the entire franchise, with only 21.
- Waterloo was the first routine from ABBA: You Can Dance to return in Just Dance+.
- It was also the first map from ABBA: You Can Dance to return as a legacy track and the first one where all the coaches have names on the coach selection screen.
- Waterloo, along with Toy, was originally planned to be released in Just Dance+ on June 15, 2023 as part of the playlist "Eurovision Song Contest"; however, their release was ultimately brought forward to May 25 to replace Wannabe, which was initially planned to be released on the same day.[3] This marks the first time a map is released in a Just Dance music catalog to replace another map.
- Waterloo is placed in the Just Dance 2017 section of Just Dance+, even though it returned to Just Dance Unlimited during the life span of Just Dance 2018.
- In the Dutch release trailer, the routine is mirrored, resulting in the coaches’ positions being Björn-Agnetha-Frida-Benny from left to right.
