#ABBA - เพลง
The best song ever from Abba.
100% indeed
Je ne la connaissais pas, elle est vraiment très belle effectivement.
Flop leider.
🤩🤩🥰🥰❤❤👍👍👍👍
Абба моя любовь
My favourite ABBA song, but unfortunately rarely played.
Well why don’t you play it more often? That seems the logical remedy to that problem. TH-cam is open 24 hours a day and it’s free. Go on. Treat yourself.

@@colmdurkin7915 lift?
@@unclenelvis get a life
@@unclenelvisI think when they said rarely played they meant that they haven’t heard this song from anywhere else, not that they rarely play this song
I absolutely love this song. One of the best Abba ever did.
The best!
Being a 66 year-old Brit and quite familiar with the Abba years, I always thought their greatness was best demonstrated in their poignant songs rather than the party songs (shall we say)
People don't realise it but this is truly one of the greatest masterpieces in modern pop music. No chorus, a double-beat that comes at intervals that feel right but you cannot put your finger on, an extremely mundane story that actually is so powerful from what it doesn't say. The feeling of sadness in the song, a contradiction given the implication it is about finding a new lover. There is so much it leaves you thinking about - just wonderful!
so true.....
merci merci
Yes, this song is so meaningful. I discovered it right before starting a new romance and felt it was saying exactly what I was feeling. Then when that romance failed, it still said exactly what I was feeling on the other side.
genial description..!!
yes!
The mark of good music is in its durability. Over 40 years on this song and many others by ABBA remain hugely popular and hugely impressive. Thank you for the music. Part of the soundtrack of our lives.
I think its what you would call "hauntingly beautiful".
This is May 2024 and this song of ABBA continues to be exceedingly electrifying, exceptionally elegant, exquisitely expressive, enormously exciting and excellently emotional even today. The singing is singularly soulful, sincere, sentimental, superb, sad yet sweet. ❤❤❤
Masterpiece stay forever
@@Remy_Gration Absolutely right. Thanks. 👌👌👍👍🙏🙏
Never be a better group❤❤ brilliant 🎉
@@philipalmond4768 Thanks. ABBA'S songs are timeless, iconic and classic. 🙏🙏
Another wonderful ABBA song brilliantly performed
One of ABBA's greatest and most underrated singles. Agnetha's vocal is simply stunning and the video is just brilliant.
I want this song to be played on my funeral

At her most beautiful too
So clever to describe a love affair from the emptiness of life before. I've never heard any song do that before or since. Heart-rending and genius.
It is not 'one of the best', it's their very best
Never got the recognition it deserved.
This song is a hidden gem. Only people who actually take the time to deep dive into ABBAs discography will find it. Nonetheless it’s one of their absolute best and it makes you wonder what would have happened if they had decided to stick together for a couple more records. Sadly it was emotionally draining for them to continue, you can feel Agnetha’s pain half across The Visitors 😢
🙏❤🙏😍💖💥🔥💫🔥👏👏👏👏👏
Es una de las más bellas canciones del S XX
Para disfrutar escuchándola toda la vida.....
Their final song and also their finest song.
Отличная песня. Эта одна из лучших
@@user-gs8ny4yb4r 👏👏👏👍👍👍🤝🤝🤝🖐🖐🖐
This song described my life 32 years ago, working two jobs as an immigrant who came to the US with nothing, I was working routinely without aim, lived the single life yet still without aim, 5 years later I saw her smiley eyes in a night that changed my life. The very next morning I stood at the window and listened to this beautiful song for the thousand times yet I finally felt what it meant, I listened to my life in a song and I discovered that I am in love with that beautiful girl I saw the night before, fast forward almost 28 years that girl still my wife and I still feel the same feeling that I felt the morning after I saw her the first time. ABBA has impacted my life in the most beautiful way.
Today July 2nd, 2023 we celebrate our 29 anniversary and the day after you came continue to be written, love is a gift that I cherish and never take for granted.....
Fantastic
this is amazing
Bravo Sam!
Oh. Yes Yes Yes 👍😁👍 감사🇰🇷🌈🇰🇷
Счастливые вы!!
Checking in from 2024. Still one of the greatest songs ever made!
One of the best songs ever written...
Beutifully haunting music, one on it's own..!
A total iconic masterpiece in music history. This song best describes what ABBA was going through as a group at this time and tells the whole story with just the beat. So sad considering this was their last song ever recorded together. It gives me chills knowing that Agnetha refused to sing this song unless the lights were dimmed in the studio and the air was just right. She even had a certain distance from the microphone during the recording. The fact she left the studio right after her last vocal in this song, not saying a word to anybody, and valuing to never go on stage again is haunting. Just makes this song ever so much more meaningful, beautiful, and powerful with how much heartbreak and talent that was involved in its creation. You can hear her heart through her voice. There is no music that comes close to ABBA. They are one of a kind, never to be duplicated again. Everything they did together was a success. And it still holds true today. I hope they never forget what they did for our industry and how much we love them. We miss you ABBA!
You’ve opened my eyes to another possible background to this wow!!!
But it wasn’t their last song ever recorded together. There are at least 5 new songs, and Bjorn is not featured in the recording. Only Agnetha, Frida and Benny are featured.
@@Clavinovaman this is really theirs last song ever
@@Lyngstad72 I understand the point that is trying to be made. In 2017, I agree, this would be a reasonable conclusion. Not the case anymore. No doubt one of the new songs will be, however.
@@Clavinovaman yeah I hope so soon
it's 2024 and i still love abba. 🚆
So do I ❤️
Ich auch 🔥👌🎶🎶🎶🫠🙏❤️
Me too😮
ABBA forever!!! :)
Навсе времена!!!!❤
If it’s possible to make you feel happy and sad at he same time, this song does it perfectly. A timeless classic
ABBA songs are very emotional... "Inside Out" taught us we can feel more than one emotion together sometimes.
Undoubtedly one of the finest songs ever written in the history of songwriting. It totally encapsulates the human condition. Sheer brilliance.
Agnethas voice is hauntingly beautiful
By God, what beauty Agnetha is, unmatched. ❤❤❤❤❤
The real miracle of the song, is that the man who wrote the lyrics didn't speak English as his first language, and neither did the man who put the words to music. Fantastic song, as is Andante Andante, their other gem.
Winner Takes it All. Another stunning work of art.
@@davidelliott5843Chiquitita too!❤
This is truly the best Abba song ever wow! what a masterpiece! the mood of the song is so powerfull, and with it being the last recording before they split in 1982 it explains why, for a song to make you cry and hit you so hard is not an easy thing to do! well done guys i only wish this song got the praise and recognition it deserves, the video is also perfect for the song even down the the lighting.
Слышится полный трагизм в отношениях, терзания и страдания души, невозможно передать это чувство, когда слова так гармонично ложатся на мелодию.
ABBA didn't split they took a break in January 1983 it was a hiatus they never officially split
ABBA the Best yes VOL.....
I T
Video rất hoàn hảo.❤❤❤❤
A timeless masterpiece.
a masterpiece........................
It's a shame this song didn't get more recognition because it's clearly one of their best.
Ok but how many 'best' do they have?.
@@a.berurier639 A lot
for me it is the sadest
back when it came out i think the feeling of the uk public was it seemed like a very tired abba song, people didn't get it. its only years later they saw it as the masterpiece it really is
Their unrecognised masterpiece.
Великолепная вещь,я её слушал мне было лет15,сейчас мне 60,верите нет я сам не верю но чувства те-же,недаром "АББА"моя любимая группа,приходили и уходили другие но АББА была всегда!
Мне в 82 году когда вышел альбом The Visitors было 18 лет, а сейчас 59. У вас калькулятор сломался)))
И да, этот альбом лучший!!!
@@Demiurg_D ладно,мне было 17,я не сщитал,от этого что-то поменялось?
@@user-lo2tj1kx2p Да вообще ничего. Просто я купил этот альбом на катушке, в студии звукозаписи в Сызрани (!!!!)
за 7 рублей и в шикарном качестве!
Через три месяца после выхода альбома!
А не в Ленинграде где я жил, там если только пятую или десятую копию у знакомых можно было найти.
Согласен в сами на все 100!!!
Мне скоро 60,,, Был на 1м сеансe фильма АББА 1го Января 1981го года и был на лазерном Шоу АББА в Лондоне в 2023м !!!
Эта песня единственная в их репертуаре кот орая так рвет душу эмоционаольно...
❤
ABBA are timeless, this particular song is a absolute gem ❤
In my opinion, best song they made
One of the most intelligent pop songs ever written and an incredible performance by Agnetha. Abba's true masterpiece.
Amazing song!💖
Ididnt know this song, must be one of eldest they made before end.
@@albertok5715 Yes. It's their second last single and the last song they ever made together. It received little airplay and only reached no.32 when it was released in '82 so unfortunately many people won't know it.
My favo ♥️
This song always gives me goosebumps.Makes my hair stands up.Amazing song and performance.All Hail Abba
This is the best song Abba ever made. Truly amazing. Makes you wonder if they’d carried on a little longer. This song is a masterpiece.
They precisely did not carry on a little longer because of this song not topping the chart (Benny said that if THIS song had been a success, they would have continued a couple of years more).
Yes.... it is the very best song of abba ❤❤❤
@@leilashampoo1408 Sadly as the 80s came, both couples divorced and the ABBA craze of the 70s had started to fade.
Had they continued they would’ve came up with more masterpieces. “I Am The City” was a testament to that, on what was supposed to be their album after “The Visitors”, “Opus”. But “Opus” never happened. “Just Like That” was a masterpiece in the works but never fully completed.
@@leilashampoo1408 but they were also also going in different directions and the public did not appreshiate the album at the time
Pete Waterman said if I had only written one song in his life, it would have been this one. He absolutely loves it, as I do
Бессмертная музыка. Браво👍🤚👌
absolutely one of the best ABBA songs ever....and a lot of people don't know it, but its truly a masterpiece!
zanetierney for me this is the greatest abba song
most people dont know it because it was released not on album but as a single
A love you
zanetierney best ABBA song, for me
zanetierney Couldn´t agree more.....
zanetierney You ain't wrong pal. I grew up with Abba and this song always meant the most. I just love the way it documents!
OMG this song, the words, the haunting melody, the look's they give each other, the train on the bridge , it's just a masterpiece. Nothing more to say.
@@aMusingAngel1 ... I won't, hence "Nothing more to say"
It is also classy. No need for being almost naked, shaking your bits and swearing. Truly beautiful music video and song.
a confession to yet uknown lover... very honest... we all expierence it every our days... and then... a silence...
Gibts nix mehr zu sagen,in der Nacht....genial
No more ace to play.
I listen to this song very often. I just love it!!!!
Yes me too ❤❤❤
A musical masterpiece. Doesn't matter if you're into heavy metal to Mozart and everything in-between. This is just brilliant. The vocals and the story of a mundane day brought to life in this recording. And the background music. I'm no expert so probably a technical name for it but it's so understated but so brilliant at the same time. Just my opinion but i think this is the best Abba song by a country mile and possibly one of the all time greats. Love to hear your thoughts and if you agree or disagree.
Benny is closest to the classic composers that we had in our lifetime. This song is brilliant due to the mixture of synths, drops and the haunting backvocals of Frida, who sound like a grieving mythological creature. Masterpiece to say at least.
I agree I know all genres of music this stands out from most
Да
Словами не описать, что происходит в душе когда слушаешь эту песню. Спасибо тебе АББА .
это что то
Мы остановимся только когда будет порядок! Должен быть наш порядок! Русские светлые! Обратите внимание!
Mil vezes obrigada,por embalar nossa juventude cheia de sonhos
Да, смотрю на эту женщину, и понимаю того парня, который стал нарушителем перебежчиком и рванул из Союза к ней навстречу, надеясь увидеться с ней в Швеции. Помните эту легендарную историю?
@@19abdulla70 что то не припоминаю-интересно очень
possibly the most under rated song by abba, fantastic song
4 me it´s a good ending of the great abba story.
Really good song!
Sad, but good….
// Sweden fan 4 ever
Beats a lot of records in these times. Look sales counts and love from the fans.
yesmarblles.it.is
I 100%agree Damian ,this is one of their hidden gems!
The last minute is instrumental only and adds to the greatness of this recording!
I would like to tell you just how much this song means to me but am in tears, so sorry.xx
I loved ABBA even when it wasn’t fashionable. We spent many a happy holiday driving round in the north of Scotland listening to them
And now, we have a new ABBA songs, so this beautiful song is not the last one, which was recorded!😜
Sure thing....😊👍
Wasn't it "Under Attack"?
Pedro Bonucci under attack was the last single, but the last song recorded (until 2018) was the day before you came
This was the last one to be recorded? :))) One of their best songs, in my opinion.
The best ever👍
The Day Before You Came" is a song that has always resonated with me, for a long time, as it beautifully captures the monotony of daily life and the profound impact a significant person can have on our lives. The lyrics, written from the perspective of the protagonist, meticulously recount the mundane details of their day-to-day existence, or at least, how it once was, and indeed returned to. This highlights the lack of passion and direction in their life, before the arrival of a special someone.
The protagonist explaining their morning routine, such as leaving their house at eight and catching the train. This meticulous description of their daily life emphasizes the sense of obligation and the lack of excitement or spontaneity before the arrival of their lover. As the song progresses, the protagonist describes their workday, lunch break, and the commute back home, illustrating a rigid and predictable routine. The lyrics "I must have kept on dragging through the business of the day, without really knowing anything, I hid a part of me away" suggest a disconnection from their emotions and a sense of being only partially present in their own life, just going by, and by.
The music video is also a departure from ABBA's previous work, which often featured the band members dressed in glamorous outfits and upbeat, energetic visuals. In contrast, the video for "The Day Before You Came" features Agnetha Fältskog as the protagonist, dressed in somber attire, riding the train, interacting with her lover, and driving home in the rain. To somber tunes. The individual shots of the band members sitting alone in an empty, theatre-like setting which indeed could before have been used to play a concert in, full of people, and now, empty, further contribute to the overall melancholic atmosphere of the video. As well as the shots of the train going by, and a sense of separation at it's core.
In my opinion, "The Day Before You Came" is possibly the greatest love song ever made, or at least one of them. The song's emotional depth & versatility, coupled with its introspective lyrics and poignant tone, showcased ABBA's ability to craft songs that resonated with listeners on multiple levels. The song serves as a powerful reminder of how the arrival of someone special can bring newfound meaning and purpose to one's existence.
Moreover, the song is particularly significant as it was the last one recorded by ABBA together before they split. The themes of longing, introspection, and the eventual realization of the impact this person has had on their life could be interpreted as a metaphor for the band's journey, with the members moving on from their time together and returning to their individual lives. When you also realize that they all were couples, it adds a deeper meaning to it as well. This added layer of meaning makes the song even more poignant and powerful, reflecting on both personal relationships and the group's journey as a whole. These different approaches help make it a lot more profound.
This is a song that has deeply touched me, and i can listen to it again and again, as it captures the essence of love, longing, and the transformative power of human connection. It stands out not only as one of ABBA's most moving songs but also as one of the greatest love songs ever made. The song's themes and the music video's visual representation of the protagonist's life create a powerful and poignant experience that remains unforgettable. At it's core, the lyrics just describe a normal day most of us can recognize, but when you add the melody to it, it tells you that something more is going on here. This song remains one of ABBA's more less known songs compared to dancing queen, or the winner takes it all, but whereas those were part of their journey, i think the day before you came can be seen as the end.
Солидарна с вами ! Спасибо за анализ , сказано точно !👌
So close to connect the philosophical text with the style of disco music was not possible before the group ABBA no one.
your comment really touched me,i didnt know this song was there last,till yesterday when i read your comment,thank you for explaining what happened when abba broke up,ive never known till now,ive loved abba since i was 5 or 6 years old,im 53 now
Wonderful interpretation, it would deserve more attention
Your comments added even more meaning to this amazing song. I've listened to this song so many times. It makes me wonder why it affects me so much.
Frida background vocals are amazing on this song
A great ending to a great band ❤
This song has everything:; hope, loss, desire, futility. I remember the day I met the love of my life, but I do not remember the day before. This is Abba as a mature musical entity. This song is amazing. Truly, truly remarkable.
Masterpiece!!!!!!!
Its haunting you and you cant escape it

It's true. 23 june 2023 was an ordinary day.. ❤.24 th june 2023 my life change ❤❤❤

I hope so because I certainly haven't heard any of them in quite a long time

Zeitlos schön! ❤
Zeitlos schön das ist wirklich war
Brilliant. Must admit this never happened to me on the Marske to Middlesbrough train. 😢
"it's funny but I had no sense of living without aim. The day before you came."
All the song is made for that, and that two simple sentences tell so much. Great lyrics.
I was captivated by those lines too. They say so much, yet the song remains ambiguous. Great tune.
It's about hope somehow - love comes one day -, but also about the sadness of the emptiness until then... an emptiness we fill with busy-ness and TV and reading and normal everyday things... Yet there's something missing... and she didn't know until it entered her life... So the Aim should be Love. :-)
she is so very Beautiful! !
yes,yes, yes !!!
As is Frida,who supplies the haunting backing vocals. Go. Abba.xxx
She is so very beatifiul!!!
The best ABBA song ever
I grew up with my stepdad being a big ABBA fan. I discovered Heavy Metal in my teens and just last week I went to an Iron Maiden concert. But every now and then I come back and must satisfy my ABBA craving. This is one of their best songs and probably one of the best pop songs ever written.
i think most 70s stuf is the best
the weets
foreigner
I grew up with my dad being a big ABBA fan too!!!
This song captures how ordinary, how dull life must have been before you found your soul mate. I can't imagine life without my lover
I’m 60 now. My favourite Abba song. Masterpiece.
Always been mine too. Masterpiece
Me too! Only discovered this classic Euro beat a couple of years ago. Great to dance to on your own.
I’m 63 now and it’s m’y favourite ABBA song too
It really is a wonderful track.
I love this song but ABBA really Never made a bad record.
This song is timeless
Агнета это Ангел, который прилитает на Землю раз в 1000 лет. Дай ей Бог долгих лет жизни
I can hardly listen to one ABBA song on youtube, without spending the rest of my evening listening to them. The four of them were magical but Agnetha will always be special to me.
that's exactly what happened to me! "Let's have 5 minutes of ABBA" the next thing that usually happen is "2 hours already?!"
Ditto. I need a twelve step program. Agnetha is captivating.
just played this track on Ken Bruce's show and just had to find this video. Same as above .. Abba Gold now on the player
simon walker Back in rotation :D they are timeless.
Yes, I heard it on Ken Bruce's show too. That's why I'm here. Great song!
I think that, not only is it Abba's best song, it may well be one of the best songs ever written.
To me it undoubtedly is
@@Burgieking1 This Song for ever.
I just love agnetha's hair, it's very curly
What a diplomatic way to say i do not know.
Yes, agreed. It has a haunting sound, a masterpiece!

I had such a crush on this beautiful singer when I was a lad

ABBA were musical masters. Their songs are as fresh today as they were when they were released. Such a great musical legacy.
Yes indeed, and this is why I am sure that 100-500 years from now, ABBA will be regarded in a similar way to how we enjoy the composers of hundreds of years ago. They are truly unique, with an amazing portfolio of songs, never to be repeated again, and to be preserved for ever.
It must never be forgotten, that like many great and successful recording / performing musical artists, they had a great team of producer's and Musician's supporting them, a wonderful organisation altogether.
One of my all time Favourite songs
Brilliant, brilliant song - lyrics, beat, mood and a beautifully shot video.
I love the narrative in this song. They were great storytellers.

@@antonegoist4858 есть ещё много всего из музыки, конечно. Но такое сочетание голоса, музыки и пр.данных, редкость.
Their final song, a true piece of art. More than music, a statement. The proof that maybe ABBA was at the end of the road but not because they are burned out, no Sir, this was their best recording, the first time i heard it i burst into tears, it mirrors life itself with minimal effects. Sometimes i asked myself how many more great songs they could have gifted the world with more time...i like the new ones too, but the lost years are...well, lost.
moi cômme une cruche qui ne suportai pas de le voir pleurer alôrs qu il abusait de moi chaque soir qu elle cruche!!@@@@
So beautifully said ❤️
So very true. The song and video remind me that sometimes in life things just come to an end. There's no point in dwelling on the whys or hows, you learn and have to move on. No looking back.
1982 was such a lovely year ....I link this lovely song to this lovely year ...But everything in life at some time ends forever...
In this song agnetha's doing all the singing
За такой взгляд красивой незнакомки можно многое отдать! При этом испытываешь небывалый прилив радости и восхищения по отношению к девушке. Жаль таких моментов совсем немного в жизни. Спасибо тебе Агнета!
Masterpiece ❤
The genius of this song is the way it resolves. Very subtle. Beautiful.
Not one of ABBAs most widely known numbers, but one of the best. Such an understated , low key tune, carrying such poignancy. Agnetha is a goddess, and Freda gorgeous without even opening her mouth.
So true!!
*Frida
In fact, it’s Frida who sang those haunting operatic notes between 2:40-3:00 and at the end
36 years later sounds amazing, what a classic!
agnetha's voice never fades..ABBA was really fantastic!..
I love the way people love this song.
I know exactly where I was 42 years ago when I heard it on the radio. I forget everything and was mesmerized by this beautiful and deep song. Later I bought the extended single version of it. I still love it, for sure with the video now.

+elisabetecosta71 Only 5 stars?
The 'divorce songs' from ABBA are stunning, transcendent, some of the best modern recorded music we have ever heard
I agree with you, but how is this one a divorce song?
@@AnssiRai more the context of the song than the lyrics
Their best song in my opinion
I love it, there is so many feelings ❤
The best part of the ABBA reunion is that people will discover songs like this that got no attention but are still relevant today and will hopefully be re released. ABBA has so many songs that could have been huge hits and were not released!!
Couldn't agree with you more
I agree. "Under Attack", "Angeleyes", "The Visitors",...etc.
No and this is why.... these are dated,i live in Sweden and i for one can tell ,that the "new listeners" will go back, as every one has so far.
the 2 last albums of ABBA were hardly noticed, we all loved it, but it was all a matter of routine...
I'm sure Mamma Mia helped in that regard
Agreed. This is is such a gorgeous song, and so few people seem to even know it exists. It's also Agnetha's best work in a video, imo.
The best song in the world
+Mos Os YES I AGREE , ABBA THE BEST ALL THEIR SONGS.
Mos Os haha
the best BAND IN THE WORLD EVER
It just says everything.. the song and the performance that you are so.. that it is hard for the listener to remain indifferent.. the pain is also so beautiful,, that you can connect with it with all the veins of the soul.. you are simply a musical legend.. and we the listeners thank you for all the beautiful music that you gave We have your extraordinary voice.. I just love you.. I have no other words...
There is an exceptional charge of sadness which reflects the emptiness in human’s life without love and how our life can be controlled by daily schedule to live like robots at the end. An amazing song for sure
Agnetha is just divine she is so gorgeous and her voice is just amazing ❤️
Miranda Lockhart
so true
I love Aghetha. And this is just a new love for me. Strange life.
I agree Miranda In this vid Agnetha looks sensationally lovely.
how old agnetha now is she still alive pls,answer my question?
My mam was and like her generation is and today still an ABBA fan my mam Anne Sadly past 2005.... After listening to endless recordings on a long Sunday afternoon whilst cooking the Sunday dinner early 80s.. IVE come across this MASTER PEICE and this is the first time and many time i will listen and enjoy just had ANNE DID. Love ya MUM
May your dear mom sleep in lights.But you should be sure that she was lucky because she knew and watched and sang and appreciated ABBA and their songs . My condelences...
Soooo cute!!🎶🎶🎶🥰😘
1981
One of the master pieces. Sad and magical at the same time.
Best ABBA song ever. I wish people gave Anni-Frid more credit on this one as she is a trained opera singer and her vocals in the background are what makes this song so haunting and beautiful
Agreed. My favourite ABBA song ever. Loved it ever since '82. I read somewhere that Frida's melancholic vocals in the middle and end were her idea - and to me that makes this song so wonderful and beautiful - poignant, moving, but so, so sad.
@@ianlyngstad1206 Yes, it's so beautiful with Frida's singing in this song. It's magic.
I love Frida as much as I love Agnetha. Sadly, Frida's contribution to Abba's success often doesn't get the credit she deserves.
She’s singing at 3:52 so it is her vocals
@@m.menneke8513 No it's not. It's both. IF you start sorting the songs like you'll end up resorting them for a few hours and ending up making all the songs one of theirs. I know. I've done it before.
One of the best songs ever written. Simply stunning. Nothing to better it. My absolute favourite song of all time.
Is this not a song that everyone can relate to? A lyrical masterpiece, very thought provoking.
Only in our western world..i suppose.. otherwise no time for such mental wainking is allowed .. it is much about getting a warm meal per day.. as i said before.. i am not much sure about what i m writing.
« Oh yes… am sure my life was well within its usual frame » her trembling voice on the last words makes me shiver each time. That’s the key sentence along with “I never even noticed I was blue”. My utmost favorite song. Hitting contrast between a too normal and boring day, and the distressing music growing up to the end… something’s gonna happen and it doesn’t sound a happy one.
The ‘you’ in this song is definitely not a lover, or any other positive thing. The song has a bleak, haunting tone and all four ABBA members are genuinely unhappy in the video. Both couples had divorced and the band’s time was coming to an end.
I read years ago theories about who the "you" is in this song. The one that always stuck with me is that it's simply the band, because it had caused such turmoil and upheaval in her life. Her marriage had ended and the band was breaking up.
It makes a lot of sense when you listen to the tone of the song and listen to the hints the guys made about what the song is about, since they have never revealed its full meaning, but they have said that it is not a happy song.
Byorn wrote the lyrics. Frida does the incredibly atmospheric backing voice. Benny everything else. Just wow.
Seldom mentioned is the amazing composing skills of Benny and Bjorn.
Thats why abba are one of the best song/singer writers in history
yeah
EXACTLY....May absolute favourite ABBA song
The BEST ABBA VIDEO AND A POP MASTERPIECE❤️
" It's funny but I had no sense of living without aim
The day before you came"
might be the greatest line in pop history.
So right! ❤
