ABBA - If It Wasn't For The Nights

[BettinaBalser]

Kids from 1979, represent with a thumbs up! This song brings tears to my eyes.

[cat32762]

DANKE ABBA!!!!! Mit Eurer Musik bin ich aufgewachsen. Und Eure Musik gibt mir und vielen anderen Menschen so unendlich viel Lebensfreude! DANKE ABBA!!!!

[LaidIsGentleMen]

If Puccini were born in the disco era.. this is the kind of music he might have written!

[FurryMuscleBear]

The talent of ABBA is absolutely unrivalled. The harmonies of the beautiful girls, the arrangements, the writing, the overall studio production takes you to another level of pure life and energy. Agnetha said in an interview in 2011 that she is finally ready to do a reunion. The power of joy and happiness generated by a new ABBA studio album would literally transform this troubled world.

świetny kawałek ;)

[Chaaaos74]

*jeppey*, LOVE BOAT welcome ;-)

[shermanthemerman]

Thumbs up if you love the dance in this song on ABBA You Can Dance!! :D

[drivingbridles]

Nothing tops the feel and atmosphere of Abba. These guys will live on forever and ever!

[MMarto72]

I particularly like the bass in this song. I mean it's all good but that bass playing is just superior!

[MagicGary1960]

A great Abba song from the 1979 Album Voulez Vous? This Album came out the very year that I graduated from High School Rock On Abba.

[MFlego81]

The Voulez-Vous album is my favourite album from ABBA as it has most of the disco tracks like this one! I still like all the others! (^o^)

[mantisgo]

@MFlego81 my favourite abba's album is super trouper, but this is sooo good too, specially this song

[foxylorri64]

Mmmmmmmmmmmm love it!

[adriana1989ification]

the best band on this earth 

[mantisgo]

excelenteeee♥

eran unos genios.

[MegaFunk81]

[fuzzface100]

This was a criminally underrated ABBA track. Should have been a single.

[pandzik]

Their best album & great song. Thanks.

[infernokid1990]

I love the mock desperation in this song. It almost ruins the song, but the song is too damn funky to dislike.

[Sambucca]

I love disco!!!!

[Tanskuspyro98]

I love this song!

[Beaven26]

can a pop song get any better than this?

[dringend9]

Somebody is deaf!

[al28041966fitton]

First heard this in Malaga - about 1981!! Doesn't get any better than this!

A world away - but never forgotten - they can't take our memories away.

[MegaJaja97]

This song is pure genius

[rotralu]

This Song is fantastic!!!

[johnbarristerus]

God bless ABBA and anybody who loves and appreciates them!

[stellarartwars07]

Abba gave disco a very different edge, maybe because of their Swedish roots, there's a wonderful tragic-comic irony that underpins so much of their work. Voulez Vous is my favourite Abba album because it really emphasises this unique character. Like The Beatles, Pink Floyd, Michael Jackson etc, they'll never be another.

[man1987ist]

This song is a masterpiece. Dieser Song ist ein Meisterwerk. Cette chanson est trés bonne. Questo canzone é molto buono. (-;

[MegaDave1973]

what year was this classic good times

[95js95]

@MegaDave1973 1979, I agree with you. True classic.

[Msmonkeyeater]

i love this song... i love abba... i learned abba songs from my parents... im just 18 now

[Blueberry421]

@Msmonkeyeater

Cela prouve ton très bon goût musical! ABBA est et restera de loin le meilleur groupe Pop de ma génération ( j'ai 55 ans), et leur musique est toujours là, 30 ans après la dissolution du groupe!!!. Seule une musique exceptionnelle peut réussir a plaire aussi longtemps.

Je suis heureux que tu apprécies et te félicite pour ton bon goût.

[Msmonkeyeater]

@Blueberry421 in English please?? :)

[Blueberry421]

@Msmonkeyeater

Sorry, but i don't speak english: use translator. Thanks

[Msmonkeyeater]

@Blueberry421 but you just did.. :| owwwwkeeiii

[Msmonkeyeater]

@Blueberry421 okey its french, i get it. how i wished that i'm born in their time... i want to see them... i also like the carpenters

[MrPekisha]

This is Swedish very best :) Greetings from Serbia :)

[Veronica4u2day]

This is the best ABBA song

[MrVantoom]

Just music to feel good... Thanks for uploading!

[022ferny]

THUMBZ UP FOR NO DISLIKES!

[bluefete77]

One of the best of the best of ABBA's songs!!!

Soaring vocals, stunning harmony and absolutely great music from Bjorn and Benny!! 30 years later and this rocks in a dance club.

[johnbarristerus]

AGELESS SONG!

[aerialkate]

The great lost ABBA single. I love Agentha's voice, I love Frida's voice, but I love it when they share lead vocals - as on Dancing Queen and this track. It's such a feelgood song and Benny's piano sounds so elegant - yet the track is kinda funky too. A proper old disco song. Why can't they write songs like this anymore?

[122294leelem]

glad to be the 100th person to like this video =D

[122294leelem]

wow this is a good song im surprised not one dislike so far in 2 exact years from now

[Jess84able]

nao me canso de ouvir...acho tão bom...tenho 27 anos e aprendi amar abba com meus papis...



[decion1967]

I looked for this song over 30 years... Its amazing, they are great in harmony, in performance. I loved and will always love all those songs!

[RetroKimmie]

AWESOME ABBA SONG!! Def underrated

[maleadmirer]

I don't remember hearing this ABBA song before but I really like it. Thanks for posting it.

[smithhedgehog]

Incredible Bassline

[TheNenisc]

Adorooooooooooooooooooo!!!!! Ouviria um milhão de vezes...

[vdub202]

their B sides are so fantastic and deserve so much more credit and attention ! Not saying i dont love their A sides ! Personally I dont think there has been a super group since or before abba that have shown so much emotion and talent in their songs !

[CloudPanda568]

@vdub202 Almost every ABBA song was worthy of being released as a single, really. I can't think of a single song by them that I don't like (even ones they denounced themselves like King Kong Song are still good for humour purposes).

[PthaloGreen2]

Better than Prozac--or any mood-enhancing medication! How can you not want to get up and dance when you hear this song. ABBBAAA..oh how I wish you would do just one more concert.....

[dykeritz9]

soooooo fucking awesome!!!

[mysweetlizzie]

an iconic group of genius stature;greatest group ever,thank you

[ZOOSHA3]

Call 'em what you wish. Even if $1,000,000,000, Yes fellow babies that is one billion dollars, to do a world tour and they declined. Makes me think that they are as popular now as they have been in their haydays. I had the honour to see them live during their 1978 tour of North American Tour. Still have their concert stub. Thanksfor the music Agnetha, Benny, Bjorn , and Frida. Ola R.I.P.

[starshiptrouper]

Agreed, its sooo underrated and a definite classic!!

[caribeandude1]

The music world will never see the likes of ABBA ever again. They were true genious. Each of their songs is a jewel. Their music will live forever.

[suzannedrakie]

I always think Benny is holding a lightsaber when I see this picture. Bjorn has got Lukes' hair too...

[Bagiricsi]

Much better than any other versions! Thank you for uploading!

[Paul66able]

I love this song because of its rhythm and backing vocals. I also like the sound of the bass guitar, played by Mike Watson. In my opinion this his best contribution to an ABBA-song ever.

[arn0ldaar0n]

Ahhh....take me to Sweden!

[Moyodsreds]

Best ABBA song!!! Shoulda been a single !!

[jenjas333]

this is one of the many abba songs that has been forgotten by most people so thank u so much for posting :)

[unhooked25]

Sensational performance.

[beingbrave]

My favorite ABBA song of all time. Which is saying a lot because they had so many great hits. Thanks for posting.

[kzbxvz]

From the lovely year 1979.

[iamanabba]

cannot believe this wasnt a single wud av been no 1 in 79 abba were at there peak.

[quizmaster85]

@iamanabba I read that they were considering releasing "If It Wasn't (etc.)" as a single, but they decided to release "Chiquitita" as the single instead.

[KingCharltonHeston]

I love this song, it deserves more recognition.

[fedtho]

@King CharltonHeston: ...just as about 3 out of 4 ABBA songs that didn't make it to absolute classic status ;-)

[novaboy5]

@KingCharltonHeston

I agree, I have no idea why they never released this as a single.

[toshiro1968]

I've got my business to help me through the day, people I must write to, bills I must pay... But everything's so different when night's on its way... It's bad... Oh so bad! Somehow I'd be doing alright, if it wasn't for the nights. I'd have courage left to fight if it wasn't for the nights. How I fear the time when shadows start to fall, sitting here alone and staring at the wall... Each song they wrote is still a masterpiece. :)

[Vidcar1]

I think it's impossible to not be able to relate to one ABBA song!

One of my favourites is this, I may be 17, but I know quality music when I hear it!

[snare500m]
