ABBA - Dream World

ABBA - Dream World

This is a list of songs that were either recorded or written by ABBA, but which were never released during the bands' active years (1972-1983) for various reasons. Some of the songs were released later in their entirety or as parts of the track "Abba Undeleted" (included in the box set "Thank You For The Music", 1994), while some of the songs were released as part of solo projects.

We're not the stars of a Hollywood movie
So what's the use to pretend
I'm not so charming and you're not so groovy
You've gotta face it my friend - Wikipedia,

Dream world
You've been living in a dream world
Trust me
You just can't escape from reality
Boy meets girl
Doesn't mean they're in a dream world
Here I am, there you are, we've gotta make it together
And we've made it so far, so it can only get better

When you reach out
And you say to me
How I love you girl
When I hold you
Baby can't you see
It's a real dream world

You had your hopes and your high expectations
Somehow it doesn't seem right
I'm getting fed up with your accusations
I'm not your angel in white

Dream world
You've been living in a dream world
Trust me
You just can't escape from reality
Boy meets girl
Doesn't mean they're in a dream world
Here I am, there you are, we gotta make it together
And we've made it so far, so it can only get better

When you reach out
And you say to me
How I love you girl
When I hold you
Baby can't you see
That's a real dream world

Dream world
You've been living in a dream world
Trust me
You just can't escape from reality
Boy meets girl
Doesn't mean they're in a dream world
Here I am, there you are, we gotta make it together
And we've made, it so far, so it can only get better

Great pics you chose ,,, Abba always sounds like schlager and christmas day-at-the-fair music to me... always felt that they should have done "broadway" shows..incredible group..great singers

[frapistat]

@jojfritz You are one of the few visionaries who could see where their music was going. Broadway hosted Chess, Kristina, and Mamma Mia. These musicals have played around the world and are still ongoing in certain geographies. Definitely schlager roots. Benny Andersson Orkester (BAO) is todays group. BAO's "Story of a Heart" is one of my favorites. Thanks for a great comment.

Good job Rob. Fantastic pictures!

@Mateo7800 Hi Artur. Thanks for the kind words, I'm glad you enjoyed the show.

Great upload Rob! Such a GREAT Abba gem! It is strange but the lyrics always reminded me of the lyrics of "Angeleyes," no wonder it belongs to the Voulez Vouz album!

Thank you Rob for the lovely slideshow.

@abbashalom62 Thank you, Marie, I'm glad you liked it. I wanted to do something for the V V Deluxe release. This song is a bonus track on it. Thanks for watching.

truly wonderful collection of images, Rob, luv the one at 1:00 :) it's a great song really, album material to be sure, sad it didn't make it onto the original catalog of albums, but given the huge quantity of material the boys produced in those years, it really isn't surprising i guess. two thumbs up and many thnx for the share :))

@Mrroydoncrossing I should remember that I am dealing with a Musketeer.  Nothing gets past you, Bil...Aramis! I'm actually trying to learn how to use this new toy. Old dog and new tricks definitely apply here. Thanks for the kind word.

@songsungu Many thanks, Christian. I thought it would be fun to do since the song is a bonus track on the (soon to be released) Voulez Vous Deluxe. I'm glad you liked the slideshow.
