I Want To Also Thank Elin For Sending Me This Beautiful Song.
"BARNEN SOVER"
Hör vad det är tyst, ingen TV mer
Och i nästa höghus ser vi ljus
Och ljus som släcks ner
Vi har lite vin, kurar i vår vrå
Och vi nynnar med i LP-n som står på båda två
Barnen sover, det är så stilla
Och vi vill inte sova än
Pratar lite, den gången, minns du?
Och dansar med varann igen
Spelar Svälta räv, gäspar lite grann
Hittar barnens Kalle Anka
Läser högt för varann
Letar i vår kyl, gör en snabb supé
Och då står ett barn i dörr'n och vill ha saft klockan tre
Barnen sover, det är så stilla
Precis som inga andra fanns
Över taken syns morgonsolen
Vi somnar tätt intill varann
Thank you for this video! I find there are 2 versions of this song on YouTube, I wonder why? I don't know which one is from the Frida 1967-1972 2CD.

@ji61m you can search for "Barnen Sover: A Portrait in Black and White" on YouTube...
I check out the Wikipedia, it says there is a live version, recorded on September 29, 1970 for radio show Våra Favoriter, which is the first public appearanc of A, B, B, and A together as a quartet. I just don't know if one of the 2 versions is this live one...

Thank you Kat, it's good to hear from you. It's one that's not heard that often and I heard a snippet of it at some site and wanted to make a video. Thanks to Elin, she sent me the song.
