As you suggest, the second line of the chorus of Burning My Bridges uses the first bit of this. I think it's very sad that the second version of Hamlet III (about autumn leaves) never came to anything, as what survives is a beautiful song fragment.

Benny was undoubtedly the musical engine behind Abba.

Thanks for looking in. Maybe ABBA will release a best of album with all of their unreleased songs. Wouldn't that be great!

Peace, Jim~

Hej Sandy...How did you manage to get in here without me seeing this. I'm sorry I missed you sweetie! We all know how you feel about Benny, so I should have expected a comment from you, Thank you.

Jim, I love this piece! It was just in one of your recent videos wasn't it? I know I just heard this song but not just the intramental version?? Or am I dreamning again!! Anyway I really like it a lot. I know I have this song too if I could just remember what album it is on!! Very nice!!

Thank you Dallas. You are right, this is the instrumental part of my video "Hamlet III (Parts 1&2). This particular track is from Benny's first solo album "Klinga Mina Klockor". Hamlet III (Parts 1&2), is on the box set "Thank You For The Music" Disc #4, on a track called "ABBA Undeleted".

@mistofoles

What???? What's so "pornographic" about that song?

[mistofoles]

"Klinga Mina Klockor"?? Sounds like a Swedish porno film!

Klinga Mina Klockor is a great album - I only bought it recently, but I love it.
