I really love this song and wanted to get it live but this seems to be the only one, and yes...those dancers ruin it for me too! I wanted to see the band up close. Is there any other live version NOT from Japan?
WHAT A FOOL I AM, THE DAY BEFORE YOU CAME , I said, One Of Us IS Lying; Bjon told me, "THAT"S ME" . What can yo do, WHEN All IS SAID AND DONE,, he kept pushing, "TAKE A CHANCE ON ME", then KNOWING ME and KNOWING YOU it was going to be HEADS OVER HEELS. PEOPLE NEED LOVES, I 'm going back to WATERLOO. I DO, I DO, I DO , I won't see you until next year so , HAPPY NEW YEAR, so, SO LONG, ANDANTE, ANDANTE and GIMME, GIMME a break , HONEY HONEY go back with CASANDRA.

I can't argue with that verdict Appy. Abba were good enough on their own not to need any accompanying dancers, however athletic they were. And their prescence prevents group close-ups as well. This song is typical of how the girls can sing complex harmonies perfectly to Abba's high tempo keyboard music!
This was their "sparkling outfit" period Di. They went through spells of outfits, usually lasting up to one year, before moving onto something different.
Its like they filmed a scene from Xanadu and used the dance troup from Tokyo. I was expecting Olivia to burst on the scene in her skates - of course about 6 years too early-
Great ABBA performance, Anni-Frid Lyngstad is the best. The dancers are great! Japanese dancers maybe the greatest.

I can only find this partial live version from Perth in March 1977, but the quality is far worse!

I have never seen this clip before. Thank you!I agree, Abba needs to stand alone. The magic is all there, nothing else needed.

Nice song but i think the dancers spoil this and there,s no close ups of the band.

Olivia is welcome, as long as she keeps going!
Yes this is unusual for Abba, they normally need no support at all.
