Super Trouper was the group's sixth chart-topping album in the UK. It was also the best-selling album in Britain for 1980.
Many thanksto all for taking the time to rate and comment !!
Super Trouper is a registered trademark owned by Strong Entertainment Lighting, for their brand of followspots, i.e., directional spotlights used to follow a performer on stage. Album cover designer, Rune Söderqvist, decided to use the spotlight theme and photograph the group, surrounded by circus performers, at Piccadilly Circus, London. After discovering that there was a law preventing any entertainers or animals appearing in central London, they instead invited the members of two local circuses to Europa Film Studios, Stockholm to take the photograph there. Several of ABBA's friends were also invited to take part and the following also appear on the cover: Görel Hanser (vice-president of Polar Music who subsequently married the band's photographer Anders Hanser), Berka Bergkvist (another Polar Music employee), Tomas Ledin and Anders Anderson (ABBA's manager's son).

Super trouper beams are gonna blind me
But I won't feel blue
Like I always do
'cause somewhere in the crowd there's you
I was sick and tired of everything
When I called you last night from glasgow
All I do is eat and sleep and sing
Wishing every show was the last show
(wishing every show was the last show)
So imagine I was glad to hear you're coming
(glad to hear you're coming)
Suddenly I feel all right
(and suddenly it's gonna be)
And it's gonna be so different
When I'm on the stage tonight
Tonight the
Super trouper lights are gonna find me
Shining like the sun
(sup-p-per troup-p-per)
Smiling, having fun
(sup-p-per troup-p-per)
Feeling like a number one
Tonight the
Super trouper beams are gonna blind me
But I won't feel blue
(sup-p-per troup-p-per)
Like I always do
(sup-p-per troup-p-per)
'cause somewhere in the crowd there's you
Facing twenty thousand of your friends
How can anyone be so lonely
Part of a success that never ends
Still I'm thinking about you only
(still I'm thinking about you only)
There are moments when I think I'm going crazy
(think I'm going crazy)
But it's gonna be alright
(you'll soon be changing everything)
Everything will be so different
When I'm on the stage tonight
Tonight the
Super trouper lights are gonna find me
Shining like the sun
(sup-p-per troup-p-per)
Smiling, having fun
(sup-p-per troup-p-per)
Feeling like a number one
Tonight the
Super trouper beams are gonna blind me
But I won't feel blue
(sup-p-per troup-p-per)
Like I always do
(sup-p-per troup-p-per)
'cause somewhere in the crowd there's you
So I'll be there when you arrive
The sight of you will prove to me I'm still alive
And when you take me in your arms
And hold me tight
I know it's gonna mean so much tonight
Tonight the
Super trouper lights are gonna find me
Shining like the sun
(sup-p-per troup-p-per)
Smiling, having fun
(sup-p-per troup-p-per)
Feeling like a number one
Tonight the
Super trouper beams are gonna blind me
But I won't feel blue
(sup-p-per troup-p-per)
Like I always do
(sup-p-per troup-p-per)
'cause somewhere in the crowd there's you
At 3:11 Agnetha did her famous lip bite :P
