DanaHaynes's Music Collectibles 3-27 Ace Of Base
Ace of Base is a Swedish pop group formed in Gothenburg in 1990, best known for their catchy, danceable tunes and blend of pop, reggae, and dancehall influences. The band originally consisted of siblings Ulf Ekberg and Jonas Berggren, along with their female counterparts, Malin and Jenny Berggren. They gained international fame with their debut album Happy Nation (1992), which was later re-released in the U.S. as The Sign in 1994. The album featured massive hits like "All That She Wants," "The Sign," and "Don't Turn Around," songs that combined infectious melodies with upbeat rhythms and catchy choruses. Their mix of pop and reggae-inspired sounds, combined with an accessible, radio-friendly style, made them one of the most successful groups of the '90s pop era, particularly in Europe and the U.S., where they achieved multi-platinum status.
Following their early success, Ace of Base released several more albums, including The Bridge (1995) and Flowers (1998), although none reached the same level of commercial success as Happy Nation.

Although they never replicated the peak success of their early years, Ace of Base remained popular throughout the late '90s and into the 2000s, known for their timeless pop hits and influence on the Europop genre. Their music remains beloved for its upbeat energy, memorable hooks, and the infectious nature of their most iconic tracks, which continue to enjoy airplay in retro and nostalgic
