WATERLOO 'MAMMA MIA! 2' CLIP
Below is a less than 1 minute clip of 'Waterloo' from 'Mamma Mia! 2'. It is sung by Lily James, (who can sing), & Hugh Skinner, (who can't sing). The Clip is from Italy, as Universal seem to be 'pulling' the Clip as soon as it is added to YouTube - even though they released 'Waterloo' as a 'Single' a few days ago.
As you can see, 'Waterloo' is sung in a Napoleon Themed Restaurant, with the Waiters and Customers joining in...
Here is the full Audio Track of 'Waterloo' by 'Young Donna', (Lily James), and 'Young Harry', (Hugh Skinner). Donna/Lily can sing and Harry/Hugh cannot sing - at all. (As people on YouTube are already saying).
I wonder if - one day - Benny and Bjorn will allow their Songs to be sung, by proper singers, in a Film. Rather than in Film's where only 2 or 3 of the Cast can actually sing...

CONFIRMED -- AT LAST!!! -- 'MAMMA MIA!' 2 SONGS
Universal have still not released the Titles of all 18 ABBA Songs on the Soundtrack Album.
However, there has now been at least one 'Pre-Screening' of the Film and an ABBA Fan has sneakily Filmed the end credits - showing the Songs that were in the Film.
Universal are not happy about this & they 'pull' the Video, whenever they see it.
7 of the ABBA Tracks, that were said to be in it, are not in it.
These 20 ABBA Songs are Listed in the end credits. (There are likely to be more than 20 ABBA Songs in it, as some of the 20 may well be sung twice).
(The Songs in Bold were also in Film 1)
01)... Waterloo
02)... Hasta Manana
03)... SOS
04)... I've Been Waiting For You
05)... Mamma Mia
06)... Fernando
07)... Dancing Queen
08)... When I Kissed The Teacher
09)... Knowing Me, Knowing You
10)... My Love, My Life
11)... Why Did It Have To Be Me
12)... The Name Of The Game
13)... Hole In Your Soul
14)... Thank You For The Music
15)... Angel Eyes
16)... Kisses of Fire
17)... I Have A Dream
18)... Andante, Andante
19)... Super Trouper
20)... One Of Us
THIS MEANS THAT THESE 7 ABBA SONGS ARE NOT IN THE FILM
Here are the 7 Listed - with their - alleged - sources given:
01)... "As Good As New" from Voulez-Vous (1979) - Mentioned by guitarist Janne Schaffer on an Aftonbladet Podcast

Meryl Streep -- 'Old' Donna, sings on Tracks 16,17 and 18. So much for the 'fears' of her Fans, that her character was not in Film 2, because she was 'Dead'. She sings Track 18 on her own.
THE TRACK LIST OF THE 'MAMMA MIA HERE WE GO AGAIN' SOUNDTRACK CD
At last - Tuesday 10th July 2018 - Universal have revealed its 18 Tracks.
These 4 ABBA Songs were mentioned in the Film's End Credits, but they have not been put on the Film Soundtrack CD - Hasta Manana, S.O.S., Hole In Your Soul and Thank You For The Music.
(Unless all 22 Tracks are to be put onto a 'Deluxe' Edition of the Soundtrack CD).
These 2 ABBA Songs were not in the End Credits of The Film, but they are on the Film Soundtrack CD:
I Wonder (Departure) and The Day Before You Came.
NOTE -- They may be in the Film, even though they are not in the End Credits.
@@@ = These ABBA Songs were also on the Soundtrack to 'Mamma Mia! 1'
01)... When I Kissed The Teacher
02)... I Wonder (Departure)
03)... One Of Us
04)... Waterloo -- (In the 1st Film - but not on the Soundtrack CD)
05)... Why Did It Have To Be Me?
06)... I Have A Dream -- @@@
07)... Kisses Of Fire
08)... Andante, Andante
09)... The Name Of The Game -- (But the Scene was cut from the Film) -- @@@
10)... Knowing Me, Knowing You
11)... Angel Eyes
12)... Mamma Mia -- @@@
13)... Dancing Queen -- @@@
14)... I've Been Waiting For You
15)... Fernando
16)... My Love, My Life
17)... Super Trouper -- @@@
18)... The Day Before You Came

It has now been revealed that 'The Day Before You Came' by Meryl Streep, is only on the Digital Download of the Soundtrack Album. It is not on the CD of the Soundtrack Album.

On that picture above, it looks like the actor from the Windsors who plays Prince Wills, I cant see him in any other role!

Such a pity some of these songs could do with a lyrical updating to make them more relevant. For example:

It turns out that 'The Day Before You Came' is on the Soundtrack CD of 'Mamma Mia! 2' after all. Pierce Brosnan has another 'go' at 'SOS'. (He did it very badly in Film 1). However, 'SOS' is noton the Soundtrack CD for Film 2. It also turns out that Meryl Streep is only in the Film in Flash-Backs, as she's been Dead for a Year.
Cher is made to look like a major character in the Trailers. It turns out that she only appears near the end of the Film. Her total screen time is only 8 to 10 Minutes! (She is recording an ABBA Covers Album - but in her own style. They won't be like how ABBA did them).
The Film is not out until Friday - 20th July. As such, I'm not expecting the 'huge' impact for the Soundtrack CD, that Alan Jones estimated for this Week's UK Album Chart. This Soundtrack has a lot more less well known ABBA Songs on it. I suspect that a lot of people will only buy it after they hear them in the Film. Benny and Bjorn have announced that they have a 3rd New ABBA Song in mind, so we could end up with 3 brand New ABBA Songs from December 2018 on-wards.

Big mistake imo - may be the rock they perish on

Mixed reviews for the film - most give it a 3/5 although The Guardian gives it a 5 and there are a couple of 4s.
Most seem to think that it was a big mistake to sideline Meryl Streep.

I watched this the other day and absolutely loved it. The girl playing the young Donna is excellent I thought.

The 2nd Film is doing very well indeed in the UK and Australia.
However, I can't see it making the almost £69 Million that Film 1 made in the UK.
I think that every Song in it should have had a big, spectacular 'Set Piece' with it, but only 3 or 4 of them did.
The Soundtrack may be No.2 for a 3rd Week, in the UK tomorrow, but its Sales are consistently lower than the 1st Soundtrack, which has sold over 1,540,000 in the UK.
Nor do I expect the DVD of Film 2 to come close to the DVD Sales of Film 1. That sold almost 1,670,000 in 1 Day in the UK, and almost 3.2 Million by the end of Week 1.
Also, a lot of ABBA Fans are angry that Benny and Bjorn allowed 'Kisses Of Fire' to be ruined in the Film. It is only partly rescued on the Soundtrack CD.
In the meantime, Benny and Bjorn now say that 'I Still Have Faith In You' by ABBA, will no longer be a Single in December. We now have to wait until 'early 2019'.
Lily James does an excellent job as Young Donna in 'Mamma Mia! 2'. I think that they had to kill off Meryl Streep, as she does not normally do Sequels, and she only agreed to play a small part in Film 2, due to that. So, she had refused to do much in Film 2. It was her decision - not the Director's or Writers...
