Suppose whoever is in charge of making wants to tell the exact same story with a new cast, possibly a new location. You’re in charge of picking the songs for the movie.

You magically have access to the rights of any song ever, the only limitations is that the songs should fit at the same points of the same story as the first movie.

Do you use the same songs? Would you run with a different genre? Change decades? Swap in different Abba songs? Is it sacrilege to even wonder?

    It would not be Mama Mia without the original Abba songs.

    Ok I’m going to be the asshole. My little sister became OBSESSED with Mamma Mia and Hairspray. I never minded Abba, now I FUCKING HATE ABBA. She watched them one after the other 2 viewings of each at least once a day for about 6 months.

    So my answer is, you can use any combination of Wheeler Walker Jnr songs you like.

      Oh wow! Those songs could certainly tell the story of seeing 3 men in 3 nights

        NGL I now want someone to do the redneck version of Mamma Mia.

        Also while its vulgar “Comedy Country” the dude is actually a really good musician and would probably still have a solid career if he had played it straight.

          Haha yeah, that would be great! A nice bit of satire. Maybe the story would look a bit less romantic if the exotic location were replaced by a motel in a small town with redneck bro-country music telling the story.
