Herreys (sometimes Herrey's[1] or Herrey[2]), is a Swedish pop group, consisting of the three Mormon brothers Per Herrey (born 9 August 1958), Richard Herrey (born 19 August 1964) and Louis Herrey (born 3 November 1966). They won the Eurovision Song Contest 1984 with the song "Diggi-Loo Diggi-Ley".[3] Richard and Luis Herrey became the first teenage males to win Eurovision and remain the youngest ever male winners, being 19 years and 260 days and 18 years and 184 days of age respectively[4]. In 1985, they won the Sopot International Song Festival with "Sommarparty". At the time Herreys won Eurovision, the brothers were living and working as singers in the United States.

Herreys continued to record and tour for a few years, but had no hits of the same magnitude as the Eurovision winner. They were the first European boyband preceding the international boom a few years later. Herreys was the bestselling pop group in Sweden in the 1980s, and enjoyed enormous success touring and performing in excess of 300 live shows. Herreys was also the first western band to be invited to tour behind the Iron Curtain in the Soviet Union, and also did shows with the big Russian star Alla Pugacheva. Louis Herrey decided in 1987 that he needed to serve a mission for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and with his brothers' permission he left for two years, leading to the breakup of Herreys.[5]


The three brothers reunited to perform "Diggi-Loo Diggi-Ley" in the intermission of one of the Swedish Melodifestivalen semifinals of 2002. Richard Herrey made an appearance at Congratulations, a 50th anniversary concert, held in Copenhagen, Denmark in October 2005. In February 2006, Richard Herrey released his first solo album, Jag e Kung. They performed at Eurovision Song Contest's Greatest Hits, the 60th anniversary show in 2015.[6]

Multi page form doesn't track abandonment properly when page reloads in google tag manager

0 Multi page form doesn't track abandonment properly when page reloads Hi I have been using the GTM technique detailed by Simo Ahava to track form abandonment and the event is being returned to GA but not correctly. The 3rd party form I am tracking is multipage and you click submit input buttons to move to each new page. This submit button is triggering the form abandonment event even though I am on the same form and have not finished it yet. The form action points to the page itself and so the page url never changes, even on the thank you page. How can configure GTM to ignore these submissions/ reloads and only fire the abandonment when the browser window is closed? https://www.simoahava.com/analytics/track-form-abandonment-with-google-tag-manager/ simo #abandonment #fromtracking¢ ...
