She talks to two men at a party. One is a pessimistic preacher. The other flirts with her. She wants to be picked up. Is this the party in Happy New Year? The displaced preacher foreshadows the Electronic Church. Human rights interest him more than the gospel.
Interesting inetrpretation. But the line is: "I'm a minister, a big shot in the state". In other words he's a cabinet minister in the government, not a religious man.
it is awesome Just to see them thoroughly enjoy themselves out there ... having so much fun... there will never ever be any other band remotely close to their singing talents, song writing, true beauty, stage presence and such wonderful grace that seems to come so naturally and easily to them....
It was an honour for me to do this one for you, as I knew you would like it and you need something like this to cheer you up ang get you back into dancing mood!
Not quite its from German tv Show Express recorded in Stockholm in November 1980. See description on right for full details of this performance and song. Yeah its very energetic and catching, you can't help joining in! The dance movements are perfect for this song, and Frida's antics sure makes it memorable!
I am so sorry for my addled brain. I've watched the Dick Cavett show from Stockholm many times, I beg your pardon.
Still, it is great footage and even a greater performance. That head banging just cracks me up.
I just finished Carl Palms book, "Bright Lights-Dark Shadows, and I recognize the error of my ways.
I met Agnetha and Bjorn in Stockholm about three weeks before they were to be married. We talked for about 20-30 minutes. Just real people, down to earth.
Hi Myriam - I'm going to have another go at getting that picture signed for you - have to try on and on and on! Yeah Frida is great here with her playful antics for the camera and the whole performance is highly charged and rocks the place!
Hi John, good to see you uploading again-as for UMG-join the club had a load myself this week-although at least they seem to be 'permissive' ones which I dont mind! Watch the 'Blue Satin' ZDF ones though- a Hamburg studio is claiming the rights to some of them!
And i'll third that John, been awhile since i seen some AWESOME vid of yours, just like this song of ABBA's, on and on and on, hope you'll be here sharin' cool vids of ABBF! = )
Sorry Jim it should be +1. Not the best night for me, youtube have knocked off my icon so I gotta find it again. That was after UMG gave me 20 warnings in 3 days. Somehow I'm still here!
I've been in touch with Shay, and they've done the same to both of use! I don't really consider them warnings because if you check you'll find out that they're targeting videos with high view counts....it's easier for them to make money off of the ones people are watching all the time!
Hiya Jim, not sure if youtube are - they wiped out my icon after I'd done this one, so have to try and find it again.. That was after a load of warnings from UMG this week.. But I'm battling On And On And On!
