Svenne & Lotta with ABBA Funky Feet & Rocky

Here ABBA fans, is the much talked about unreleased ABBA song, "Funky Feet". ABBA recorded it and decided not to release it because of it sounding like "Dancing Queen", and it also reminds me of "If it wasn't for the nights". They gave the backing track to Svenne & Lotta. The "B" side is an absolutely KICK ASS version of Austin Roberts "Rocky". Micke Tretows tight arrangement and production really showcases their respective voices. Enjoy!

Was Lotta Swedish too?

[KarlDan]

:ook at youtube for my video of Sherrys medley of dance hits.

Lotta was a member of this Philly girl group and met Svenne while touring in Sweden.

I think you will enjoy some of my other Svenne & Lotta videos as well.

Cheers then!

I think it is to ABBA's eternal credit that they didn't release FF themselves. They would have become "one trick ponies", as there are similarities between it and DQ. The lyric theme, and the basic chords come to mind straight away. So many groups cash in on the success of one record by releasing a similar one 5 minutes later, and they end up dumper bound. Well done ABBA - Fernando, DQ, KMKY - 3 great but totally different records! That said FF is a good song - for someone else!

Lotta is a GREAT and underrated singer!

Loved their LP back then.It was produced by Benny.Love more Fridas solo-album.It was my second record to buy.The best song on that was Skulle de va skönt.Beach Boys in swedish! Better lyrics and sounds!

I don't see the comparison to "Dancing Queen." Guess I'm a moron. ABBA should have recorded this and released it. It's quintessential ABBA, and only ABBA could put it over they top. Great song, and missed ABBA opportunity.

If ABBA released their version of "Funky Feet" it could give them yet another big hit!

Discomusic is my religion

[abbasupertroupers]

This song is sticky WHYYYYY ABBA it's so different of dancing queen

[99realz]

Alcazar sang it better!!!!!!!!!!!

[hmbaily]

She was American and was with a trio touring Sweden when she met Svenne. The sixties were a good time to look for a more tolerant society than the USA, and these things combined to allow her to make a home in Sweden. The Americans loss is our gain!

Loved ABBA so much that did not see how close Dancing Queen this was.Svenne&Lotta LP is still working.B&B produced it.Many many good songs on that.
