Probably my fave Abba song. Some beautiful chords in there. Fantastic production & harmonies - perfect in nearly every single way. Vulnerability taking shape in musical form.
One of the first songs that really hit me hard as a kid. Uplifting, searing, & painful all at once. Remember distinctly wondering whether growing up really was something to look forward to or if it was just far too complicated!!
Some of ABBA's songs are more like symphonies than typical rock or pop songs---This is one of them. The complexity, harmony, emotion, and power of this piece lift it far above any current pop song that I have heard in years. Recently, I played this video for a young music student who had never heard it before, and it stunned him---Now he listens to ABBA every chance he gets!
Agnetha still looks good for being close to 60. Frida also looks pretty for her age now. Both have internal beauty that will last in their songs and videos.
Internal beauty ....Yes ....But young physical beauty is what generates Infatuation which is oh so powerful but very fleeting . Anybody found the " Fountain of youth " yet? I could sure use some!!
Sweden is not a eastern european country. It is in Western europe area,Scandinavia in fact. Well,depents on how you look at things,if you're in west of this country...etc...Have a look at google if you can't find it. But Sweden has the borders with Norway and Finland,with lands touching one another....
I can't say I recognize the board game they're playing in the video. I suppose it's a Scandinavian game. Do any of you Finns, Danes, Swedes, or Norwegians know?
This song contains everything missing from modern music. Beautiful melody, stunning harmonies, superb writing, arrangement, layering. Frida and Agneta's voices are like two precious metals blended to forge a brilliant new alloy. That, and they're both gorgeous. I'll bet writing/playing with them all was an absolute blast.
Too bad the scene and song were cut from the movie. Fortunately, it's in the bonus section under the deleted scene. Great song - although nothing like the original, Amanda did a preety good job.
Your idea is really great. I had some like this untill the day I read in Abba Official Site this song is about a consult with a Psychiatric doctor. Unfortunately, two days before I read it they changed the entire site and there isn't this part anymore.
She is asking for him to kill her and put her out of her misery "I was an impossible case, noone ever could reach me...". He wants to help her, but it is illegal
Um.... no. She's saying that she's fallen in love with him, despite the fact that she hasn't with anyone else, and wants to know if he feels the same way or if she's misreading his intentions.
Apparently it was based of an actual Person's psychologyst's visit. "I've seen you twice, in a short while, only a week since we started...getting more open-hearted" People see their Psych's 2x a week.
its not stupid at all. because the same goes for me and im sure it goes for a lot of people. like whatever kind of mood were in at the moment has an effect on what music we want to listen to at that time, so your comment makes perfect sense.
Thank you so much for posting this! Reminds me of fall of 1977 when I was in 3rd Grade in Chicago! Always makes me think of the girl I had a puppy love with!
I LOVE THIS GROUP SO MUCH! i AM 56 AND DISCOVERED THEM RECENTLY AFTER i SAW meryl sTREEP IN MAMMA MIA! i FEEL YOUNG AGAIN!tHE LADIES HAVE SUCH LOVELY FRESH EXPRESSIVE VOICES.
I was watching ABBA The Movie a few months back and this song came on. I liked it so much I checked out some of their other songs.If you want a real treat, listen to some of their lesser known stuff. Great music and lyrics. Agnetha and Frida both have wonderful voices, and when they sing lead together the sound is amazing. Thanks for posting, this is my favorite video of this song.
i'm watching it; i just sent you a message; but my head is pretty much a mess right now, i feel numb, i will tell you that this is NOT a game to me, and it scares me that you'd put it in words like that cos i've never been a person that turns relationships into games at all... you need to ask YOURSELF "what's the name of the game" cos i'm a mess right now, i don't know what more to tell you, i feel really numb
naah Cub just realistic...time passed ..i must admit Agnetha did a great album in 2004 but i don't think she wanna get back with her old buddies..Frida probably feels the same she's another person a princess busy in high society stuff Benny got his band and bjiorn...well he got his memory problem....i think in a way there's that feeling david gilmour had too....when it comes to do things branded pink floyd or abba well it's too big and they're aged to keep up with all that fuss...better a solo
What a great group! They have so many great songs it is tough to pick a favorite though this and "Knowing me, knowing you", and "SOS" are a few of mine. Thank you so much for posting this video.
surely they're special but a comeback tour? they're kinda tired and grown up agneta almost 59 frida and ben 63 bjiorn doesn't even remember he was a musician having problem with memory...they were great but it's over
After a long time and a lot of thought this is my favorite ABBA song. And I love both of the girls amd i especially love agnetha 2:46, dear god that is hot.
I have many favorite Abba songs, but this is my absolute number one fave...such a sexy song with a hint of R&B in the guitar and bass licks...and the voices by the ladies...amazing!
hahaha Benny is hilaroius, I always laugh everytime I see this vid at 3:58 Frida should bite him hehehehe, gosh Agnetha is so sweet!!!she is a really special blond person, I mean she is not just pretty but she is just eveyrthing else too...this song is just another classic!! with ABBA just keeps getting better and better! thank U!
In Swedish culture the woman, not the man, selects who she wants to date and marry. That is what I admire most about what Abba depicts in this music video. There would be less domestic violence and divorces in America if it were more this way.
This is a great,fantastic song.I also heard badfinger song that is named the same from 1972.Both very good songs.I just heard day after day and baby blue.If management werent corrupt,Badfinger i think would have been as big as Abba.
