The first time I heard this song was while performing in the Royal Nova Scotia International Tattoo in 1990. The bagpipes, massed bands and chior performed it during the finale.
A lovely song and my late partner Tess's favourite, God rest her. I love it too, but wish it had another line than those "fights and words of violence", or perhaps another verse.
THANK You nskid!!! It never ceases to amaze me how adamant people can be about the way They hear lyrics, while at the same time being so obviously wrong. Seriously, google "lyrics ___" just about any song. Some of it is So wrong it's hilarious.
my first Abba Album was Abba Arrival...on vinyl and I guess I must have been around 10 years old! ...in 1976....and my love for Abba has evolved through many changes but always their music and words have moved and lifted me! thank you so much dholm13 for this lovely song and video with it!!!!
I love this song so so much! And it was so near the end for Abba as a group in a way this song is tinged with sadness and emotion. Even my father, who wasn't really an Abba fan, could appreciate the beauty of the words and music in this song...D.B.Jones R.I.P.......buttons....
@hlnl56 I see what you mean, the "times of joy and times of sorrow/We will always see it through" part does have similar melody I think when I listened to the hymn. Also reminds me of Auld Lang Syne, its that style of tune. It sounds just like an old folk song or hymn.
This song brings back a memory both happy and sad.....happy with the long Summer I spent with Wendy which seemed to last forever and sad when it ended so suddenly.....all those years ago and I still think of her.... but what a memory.
Hmmm....where my comment has gone? I wonder.... I left it 3 days ago here....
Ok, it told that it was a great vid from a great friend! That it was a coincidence... `cause I had listened to that song from my CD perhaps 10 times that day....
Hmm Laura.. I remember your comment and I answered it! I don't know how it could vanish! You Tube has done some strange things lately! I remember you telling me you had just listened to it a bunch of times that day. Thanks for re-posting your comment Laura!
I accidently hit the red thumb on your comment! Sorry! I will get it changed as soon as I can AZ.. Yes, I was able to find some nice high resolution stills for this video. Thanks for taking the time to watch and leaving a great comment!
Hi there Mari-A! Happy to see you were here and enjoyed! Always liked this song and decided to do a video with it. Thank you for taking the time to watch and comment!
Hi there my darling Carina! Happy to see you were here and enjoyed! I like the song a lot too and decided to do a slide for it today. Thanks for taking the time to watch and comment!
Hi there Veronica! Yes, I love Frida's lead vocals in this one a lot too. You are so lucky to have been able to see them live! I sure wish I could have! Thanks for your visit and comment!
What a beautiful song and video Dallas. I love your pictures some of which i have never seen. Thankyou for sticking in there friend you are doing a wonderfull thing Rick
Hi there Rick! I hadn't did a video on this song and always liked it so thought I would put one together. It is a short song that comes with some sadness because of ABBA members ending up going their own separate ways. But the good thing is they left us with a whole lot of wonderful music that will go on & on! Thanks for stopping by Rick!
A fine upload my friend with photos I have not seen before-we both seem to have got a new lease of life and with the Warner dispute just having been settled, there will be other gems that can now be posted. Take care my friend! 5 star fave!
Hi there Bill! It was an easy one to put togetherl. I just used pictures from an early folder that seemed to go well with this song. Always liked the song and hadn't done a video on it, so decided to do one. Glad you liked it buddy! Thanks for taking the time to watch and comment!
Hi there Laura! That sure was a coincidence! I was thinking about this song today too and decided to make a video on it. Thanks for taking the time to watch and comment!
I'll take this as my own National Anthem. Yup the National Anthem of The Scunnered Man. So sorry no one else can claim it now. 29th Feb 2012.

You and I can share the silence
Hand in hand put together
The way old friends do.
And after fights and words of violence
We'll make up with each other
The way old friends do.
