[2Shaymcn]

You said it

He had 'it' from a young age Isabelle

[saloabad]

their music is pretty unique, I'm becoming their fan too. Thanks Shay, nice slides;)

[2Shaymcn]

They tried many different styles too Salo

This one shows Bjorn movigg away from folk to more pop styles

[dholm13]

No I didn't see this one before Shay. I like it a lot in fact! Thanks for the share Shay! Stay warm! I watched an old U2 concert the other night called Rattle &--- something..it was really great in b&w.

-Dallas

[2Shaymcn]

Rattle & Hum is the one Dallas,some great performances in that film. I remember seeing it on the big screen

Hey I just uploaded their 1st single on channel 2! They have a brand new single out next week!!

[dholm13]

Yup, exactly that was the name of it. Some really good old tunes of theirs in it!  The same night I watched "The Who" in the UK from 1970 and Keith Moon was rocken out with the drums! I love the "Tommy" one. They were all so young back when both these were done! Great memories!

[2Shaymcn]

Keith Moon was one of the best!

[jes941]

Shay I still think the hoots are tops loved all their music back then oh I mean my Dad did he told me about it, it was before my time lol

Jim

[2Shaymcn]

Yeah my grandpa told me all about them too! hehe

I wonder is there a real life story behind this one Jim? sounds like there might be

[jes941]

that's really strange Shay I was thinking the same thing!!!

[Cercopithecus47]

Both musically and lyrically, slightly influenced by The Beatles' Eleanor Rigby, I guess?

Andersson-Ulvaeus, what a combo.

[2Shaymcn]

You can hear a little 'Eleanor Rigby' here for sure!

[Cercopithecus47]

Yep. Not that Björn was ripping McCartney off or anything, but it has a little that same 'feeling' (churchyard, death & those strings...)

[SadLookinMoon]

love this song Shay! (of course I would, it's Björn) this lyricist-thing he's doing, I really think is his thing :)

cute 1.35!

[2Shaymcn]

Thought you might Elin, Cool lyrics too, he didnt get enough credit for the quality of his words
