To be honest, the swedish version reminds me of something teenagers from the 70s would write, but maybe thats what they were....

but it does sound very simple not like the english version

[ji61m]

When this song was released in 1974, Frida and Bjorn were both 29 years old (Bjorn is the oldest of the four ) ...Benny was 28 years old, and Aggy was a young 24 years old. These were the early 70's and times were much simpler back then. You could basically write anything and sell records. Singer/songwriters ruled the 70's.

Peace...Jim~

A large portion of Minnesota's population is of Nordic descent, mostly from Northern European countries of Scandinavia such as Sweden, Norway, and Denmark.

So glad I got to live in Sweden as an exchange student and learn the language. I remember it took me four months to start dreaming in Swedish - LOL great time.

Splendid clip! The Swedish songs by ABBA are also beautiful. The Swedish language is very nice and melodious.

Why Does HONEY HONEY IN DANISH Break my Heart? Travelled nearly 3000 kms to meet a beautiful Girl, just rounded the corner at Hughenden (Dinosaur country) in Queensland, when the Danish version came on radio. I knew I was on the homestretch. To meet the girl I loved and lived with for 2 years. Travelled that way to be with her for (for the very first time) Christmas 2008. Cyclone Yassi blew my love away. Sorry must be this time of the year.

I wonder if they wrote their songs in Swedish and then translated to English or the other way around...
