A very young Björn here in 1964, from the film 'Älskling på vift' ('Darling on the run'). Music by Björn and lyrics by Cornelis Vreeswijk.

Love Björn's confused look @ 2:51 :D

If I'd known that the captain was blind
Darlin', darlin'
Now if I'd known that the captain was blind
Darlin, darlin
Now if I'd known that the captain was blind
I wouldn't have got to work until half past nine
Darlin, darlin

I asked the captain for the time of day
Darlin, dalrin
Now I asked the captian for the time of day
Darlin, darlin
Now I asked the captian for the time of day
The captain grew so mad he threw his watch away
Darlin' darlin'

I told the captain that my hands was cold
Darlin', darlin'
Now I told that captain that my hands was cold
Darlin', darlin'
I told that captain that my hands was cold
'God bless your hands' he said and watched them drive his road
Darlin', darlin'

  • I'm a DY at a Swedish radio station mid-state. I've been using this group for a contest. Anyone who can guess who they are(and I've given major hints)wins some home-made lefse. My listeners are pretty sharp. They guessed The Zettlers on my last contest right away.

  • björn is sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oooooooooooo cute. I love him so much :D <33333333333333333333333333333­333333333333333

  • naw <3

  • I wonder if that's Stikkan "Stig" Anderson at the beginning announcing them? Also were Janne Schaffer or Rutgar Gunnarson, who played lead & bass guitars respectively w/Abba, in the "Hootenanny Singers" or "Hep Stars." Same with Ola Brunkert, Roger Palm, & Mike Watson?

  • @MBLremix My pleasure Marc! :)
