Một trong những ban nhạc gần gũi với lứa tuổi chúng ta mà không ít bạn hữu đã một lần nghe qua để rồi nhớ mãi trong đời , đó là ban nhạc ABBA. ABBA của Thụy Điển là một trong những ban nhạc pop nổi tiếng nhất thế giới trong thập niên 70 và những năm đầu thập niên 80. Với nhiều hơn 370 triệu băng dĩa đã được bán ra, ban Abba cũng thuộc vào những ban nhạc thành công nhất về mặt thương mại.
Ban Abba được thành lập trong những năm đầu thập niên 1970 và tạo một bước ngoặc lớn khi chiếm giải thưởng Eurovision Song Contest vào năm 1974 tại Brighton Anh Quốc qua bài hát Waterloo.Sau khoảng 10 năm tồn tại, các thành viên trong nhóm đã chia tay vào cuối năm 1982, đề lại bao thương tiếc cho những người ái mộ. Xin tóm tắt một số chi tiết về ban nhạc nầy nhân dịp đầu năm, khi chúng ta đã có dịp nghe qua bài hát "Happy New Year" (http://hoiquanphidung.com/showthread.php?t=250)bất hủ của nhóm.

Anni-Frid Lyngstad****************Agnetha Fältskog


Bốn thành viên của ban nhạc gồm Benny Andersson (Sweden), Björn Ulvaeus (Sweden), Anni-Frid Lyngstad (Sweden, of Norwegian-German origin) và Agnetha Fältskog (Sweden). Tên cúa ban nhạc ABBA là những chữ đầu của các thành viên ghép lại (Agnetha, Björn, Benny, Anni-Frid).

Agnetha Fältskog (ca sĩ, soan nhạc), cô gái có mái tóc vàng óng Thụy Điển, sanh ngày 5 tháng 4-1950 tại Jönköping, bắt đầu nghiệp ca hát lúc 17 tuổi, trước khi thành lập ban nhạc Abba đã là một nữ ca sĩ và soạn nhạc Thụy Điển rất thành công từ năm 1968 với nhiều album nhạc.
Anni-Frid Lyngstad (Frida, ca sĩ) sanh ngày 15 tháng 11-1945 tại Ballangen, Na Uy cũng là một ca sĩ có tiếng của Thụy Điển, bắt đầu ca hát lúc 13 tuổi trong các ban nhạc khiêu vũ, khá thành công trong loại nhạc Jazz. Lyngstad đã đoạt giải thưởng tuyển chọn tài năng cấp quốc gia vào năm 1967, đến năm 1969 đã đạt được hạng 4 trong kỳ tuyển chọn người tham gia Eurovision Song Contest của chương trình „Melodifestivalen 1969“ và Album solo đầu tiên của cô được ra mắt vào tháng 3-1971 với tên Frida.
Björn Ulvaeus ( sanh tại Gothenburg, Thụy Điển ngày 25 April 1945 ) là một ca sĩ và tay chơi giutar, bắt đầu chơi nhạc từ năm 18 tuổi trong nhóm Hootenanny Singers khá thành công với loại nhạc folk-skiffle .
Benny Andersson ( sanh tại Stockholm, Thụy Điển ngày 16.12.1946) là một tay chơi piano và keyboard của ban nhạc Hep Stars rất nổi tiếng được xem là "The Swedish Beatles" của Thụy Điển, cũng bắt đều chơi nhạc từ năm 18 tuổi.

Agnetha Fältskog và Björn Ulvaeus quen nhau trong một dịp thâu hình cho đài truyền hinh Thụy Điển vào tháng 5.1969 và kết hôn vào ngày 6 tháng 7-1971 tại Verum miền nam Thụy Điển. Cuôc hôn nhân kéo dài cho đến tháng 7 năm 1980 nhưng hai người đã rời nhau trước đó vào tháng 12-1978. Anni-Frid Lyngstad và Benny Andersson thì quen nhau vào tháng 2-1969 và yêu nhau vào khoảng 8-1969, tuy nhiên hai người chỉ kết hôn vào ngày 6.10.1978 để rồi chia tay 3 năm sau đó tức tháng 11-1981. Những cuộc chia tay nầy có lẽ là nguyên nhân chính khiến ban nhạc tan rã.


Hình thành Abba:

Björn Ulvaeus quen với Benny Andersson từ tháng 6 - 1966. Sau đó 3 tháng hai người gặp nhau lần thứ hai trong đêm party tại căn nhà của cha mẹ Björn và cho ra đời bài hát chung đầu tiên "Isn’t It Easy To Say" do ban nhạc Hep Stars trình bày. Bài thứ hai của 2 người là A Flower In My Garden ra đời vào năm 1968 cũng do ban Hep Stars trình diễn.
Cũng kể từ đó hai người thường trình diễn chung trong các buổi hòa nhạc ở Bắc Âu. Tuy nhiên phải nói rằng sự ra đời của ban nhạc Abba bắt đầu khá lãng mạn trong chuyến nghỉ hè của hai đôi uyên ương vào tháng 4-1970 trên một hòn đảo của Cyprus. Lúc đầu là nhóm ca hát vui chơi trên bải biển và sau đó là một màn biểu diễn sống ngẫu hứng trước những binh sĩ của LHQ trú đóng trên đảo. Các hứng khởi đã đưa đến việc cho ra đời dĩa hát LP đầu tay của Andersson và Ulvaeusi là Lycka (Luck) được thu tại hãng dĩa Polar Music của Stig Anderson mà nhóm Hootenanny Singers có hợp đồng. Cũng từ dĩa nhạc LP nầy bắt đầu có sự cộng tác của hai người bạn đời của họ là Agnetha Fältskog und Anni-Frid Lyngstad trong vai bè phụ cùng với người kỹ sư âm thanh Michael B. Tretow mà sau nầy trở thành tay chuyên viên phụ trách về âm thanh chính của nhóm ABBA. Bài hát đầu tay nghe được tất cả 4 giọng của Abba là "Hej Gamle Man" ("Hello, Old Man"), tuy nhiên trên hình bìa của dỉa hát và album Lycka chỉ có tên của 2 người chính là Björn Ulvaeus & Benny Andersson. "People Need Love" là tựa của bài hát đầu tiên mà ban nhạc đưa ra thị trường vào năm 1972.

Tuy nhiên nhìn chung nhóm Abba vẩn chưa phải là một ban nhạc chính thức vì song song đó, tất cả các thành viên đều vẫn còn bận rộn với các chương trình riêng rẽ của mỗi người và vẫn chưa nghĩ đến một tên chung cho ban nhạc, tên bìa vẫn còn là Björn & Benny, Agnetha & Anni-Frid.
Với tên ABBA mới, ban nhạc lần đầu tiên xuất hiện trong kỳ tuyển chọn người đại diện cho Thụy Điển tham gia giải Eurovision Song Contest và đạt thắng lợi, ban nhạc đã giành được giải nhất Grand Prix "Eurovision Song Contest" ngày 6. April 1974 tại thành phố Brighton, Anh với bài Waterloo. Bài hát đã giành được vị trí hàng đầu của Hitparade trong nhiều quốc gia và thuộc về "Top 10"-Hit tại Mỹ. Kể từ thời điểm nầy, ban ABBA đã thành công liên tiếp với các dỉa LP tiếp theo như Waterloo, I Do, I Do, I Do, I Do, I Do (1975), Single "S. O. S" (1975), "Mamma Mia"...

Cao điểm và những dấu hiệu khủng hoảng (1976-1980):

Sau khi thành công vượt mức với 2 bài nhạc trên, đầu năm 1976 ban ABBA cho ra đời Single "Fernando" và thành công mỹ mãn, đứng đầu Hitparade trong nhiều tuần lễ tại một số quốc gia và được xem như bài hát thành công nhất của ABBA về mặt thương mại. Đến tháng 8 cùng năm là bài "Dancing Queen" được xem như tiêu biểu nhất của nhóm trong dòng nhạc Disco-Pop, mặc dù cả hai chàng Andersson und Ulvaeus đều chưa hài lòng lắm với tiết tấu và nhịp điệu của bài hát. Đến tháng 11-1976 bài hát bắt đầu trình bày tại USA và đến ngày 9 tháng 4.1977 là bài đầu tiên và duy nhất của ABBA đã đứng đầu trong Hitparade của Mỹ.

Mùa Thu 1976 nhóm cho ra đời album thứ tư "Arrival" cùng với các bài như "Money, Money, Money", "Knowing Me, Knowing You"... với số bán chạy vượt mức.
Năm 1977 là cao điểm của ban ABBA với số dĩa bán kỷ lục trên khắp thế giới và vô số giải thưởng. Các buổi trình diễn tại Âu Châu, Úc đều bán hết vé từ lâu trước khi cuộc trình diễn bắt đầu. Bộ phim ABBA-The Movie („Abbamania“) đầu tiên do đạo diễn Lasse Hallström thu như là tài liệu của nhón trong cuộc hành trình nầy đã trở bên một trong những phim rạp nổi tiếng nhất trong năm 1978 tại Âu Châu và Úc.
Sau khi trở về Thụy Điển, vào mùa Hè và Thu 1977, ABBA bắt đầu thực hiện album thứ 5 " The Album" của nhóm. Tiến trình thu âm đã bị gián đoạn một thời gian vì lý do thai nghén lần thứ hai của Fältskog. Nếu album "Arrival" là một tiêu biểu của dòng nhạc Disco thì "The Album" với dòng nhạc có vẽ trầm lắng hơn. Bản nhạc "Take A Chance On Me"
được bán nhiều nhất của ABBA và đứng hàng thứ 3 trong chart list của Mỹ và là bản nhạc thứ hai chiếm vị trí cao nhất sau "Dacing Queen" tai đây. Cũng từ album nầy có bài "Eagle" (http://hoiquanphidung.com/showthread.php?t=971) dài nhất trong số các bài hát của ABBA (5 phút 51 giây).
Mùa Thu 1978 Lyngstad kết hôn với Andersson, trong khi cuộc hôn nhân của Fältskog và Ulvaeus đang lâm vào ngõ cụt. Nguyên nhân chính là Fältskog muốn sau khi sanh đứa con trai Christian vào tháng 12-1977 cần có nhiều thời giờ để chăm sóc gia đình, ngược lại Ulvaeus lại không muốn bỏ bê ABBA. Sự mâu thuẫn nầy cùng với một số khác biệt khác đã dẫn đến việc cả hai sống dần tách biệt nhau và cuối cùng Fältskog đã rời bỏ ngôi nhà chung của cả hai vào ngày 25. 12. 1978 với hai con và hai người chính thức ly dị vào tháng 7 năm 1980.
Sự chia tay của Ulvaeus và Fältskog đầu tiên có vẻ như không ảnh hưởng gì đến ban nhạc và sau đó, album thứ sáu "Voulez-Vous" của nhóm ra đời với Chiquitita, I Have A Dream.... Riêng bài Chiquitita được Abba hiến tặng mọi thu nhập cho cơ quan UNICEF đến ngày hôm nay. Mùa Thu năm 1979 ban nhạc còn thực hiện một vòng lưu diễn lớn ở Âu Châu, Mỹ và Nhật. Cũng chính trong giai đoạn nầy, Fältskog bắt đầu biểu hiện sự chán nản và mệt mỏi đối với ABBA.
Vào năm 1980 nhóm chuẩn bị và cho ra đời album "Super Trouper", bài hát đầu tay của album là "The Winner Takes It All", là album được xem là thành công nhất của nhóm với 10 triệu ấn bản. Bài Happy New Year nổi tiếng cũng thuộc về album nầy.

Chia tay:

Những bế tắc trong hôn nhân đã làm hoạt động trong nhóm trở nên khó khăn hơn kể từ đầu thập niên 80. Sau khi chuyện ly dị của cặp Fältskog và Ulvaeus trong tháng 7-1980 có hiệu lực, Ulvaeus kết hôn với người bạn gái Lena Källersjö vào ngày 6 tháng 1-1981 mà anh đã sống chung từ Silvester 1978, đứa con gái đầu lòng của 2 người ra đời vào tháng Giêng 1982.
Lyngstad và Andersson cũng chia tay sau khi Andersson bắt đầu quan hệ với một Xướng ngôn viên truyền hình là Mona Nörklit và đã có mang thai. Ngay sau khi ly dị với Lyngstad một tuần lễ, Andersson kết hôn với Mona Nörklit vào tháng 11-1981. Tháng Giêng 1982 đứa con trai đầu lòng là Ludvig ra đời. Cả hai cặp Ulvaeus và Källersjö cũng như Andersson và Nörklit vần còn sống chung nhau đến ngày hôm nay.
Song song với giai đoạn chia tay nầy, ABBA cũng đang bắt đầu thu Album thứ 8 và cũng là cuối cùng của nhóm "The Visitors". So sánh với các Album trước thì việc thu âm Album nấy bị trì trệ rất nhiều và sau khi hoàn tất vào cuối năm 1981 và cho ra thị trường, người nghe đã bị bất ngờ. Trong Album nầy Abba đã đánh mất đi những nét đặc thù vốn đã
mang lại thành công trong dòng nhạc của nhóm trước đây. Các bài nhạc của Album nghe có vẽ mệt mỏi, thiếu cảm giác và khô khan, lời nhạc trầm lắng và ngay cả những dòng nhạc pop cũng thiếu đi nét sống động. Không bài hát nào có Fältskog và Lyngstad hát chung, chỉ nghe chung được qua một vài bài nhưng với giọng bè phụ. Bài "Like An Angel
Passing Through My Room" lần đầu tiên do Lyngstad hát một mình. Dù vậy Album Visitors vẫn đạt được con số bán kỷ lục giống như Album trước mặc dù có những tiên đoán hơi bi quan.
Vào năm 1982 nhóm ABBA còn cố gắng gặp nhau lần nửa nhằm chuẩn bị cho cuốn Album kế tiếp nhưng mọi người nhanh chóng nhận ra bầu không khí nhạt nhẽo, thiếu hứng khởi. Trước kỳ nghỉ hè thường niên chỉ có 3 bài được thu âm : "Just Like That, You Owe Me One, I Am the City". Giòng nhạc lần nầy có vẽ hòa nhịp và vui hơn. Đồng thời Lybgstad và Fältskog bắt đầu có những hoạt động riêng ngoài nhóm ABBA.
Dù giới truyền thông phỏng đoán sự chia tay của nhóm sắp xảy ra, các thành viên của ABBA luôn bác bỏ. Ngay trong bản tuyên bố báo chí ngày 14 tháng 7-1982 do Görel Hanser phổ biến có đoạn: „Even if the ABBA members from time to time are doing things on their own, there is no intention whatsoever to break up the group.“ Tháng 8-1982 bốn
thành viên ABBA còn gặp nhau để thu âm một số bài cho Album "The Singles – The First 10 Years" phát hành vào tháng 11-1982.


http://hoiquanphidung.com/Pictures/ABBA_The_Singles.jpg


Ngày 11 Tháng 12-1982 ABBA gặp nhau lần cuối cùng trên chương trình truyền hình Thụy Điển "The Late Late Breakfast Show", cùng hát chung các bài "I Have A Dream" và "Under Attack". Sau đó trong phần phỏng vấn, nhóm tuyên bố tạm nghỉ một thời gian mà người ta xem như lời từ biệt của nhóm vì sau đó mỗi người theo đuổi con đường riêng của mình, dù chính thức ban ABBA vẫn chưa bao giờ giải tán.
Ban nhạc ABBA đương thời cũng thuộc về nhóm những người thành công nhất về mặt tài chánh. Sau hơn 25 năm chia tay và không có thêm một bài nhạc mới hay cuộc trình diễn chung nào, nhóm vẫn còn rất được ái mộ và cho đền bây giờ, hàng ngày vẫn còn bán được khoảng 3000 Exemplar nguyên gốc của ABBA. Thương hiệu ABB vẫn còn được khai thác cho đến hôm nay về nhiêu mặt và vẫn còn ăn khách.

Dù với sự ái mộ nồng nhiệt của khán giả khắp thế giới, các thành viên ABBA đã từ chối nhiều cơ hội trình diễn chung, đáng kể nhất là vào năm 2000 đã từ chối một đề nghị một vòng trình diễn thế giới cho khoảng 100 buổi hòa nhạc với số tiền thù lao là 1 tỷ US dollars.

Tổng kết:

Vào lúc đương thời, các bài hát của ABBA đã chiếm hạng nhất Single-Charts tổng cộng 143 lần trong 23 quốc gia. Ngoài ra bộ phim musical "Mamma Mia!" ra mắt vào tháng 2-2003 đã xử dụng các bài hát nổi tiếng của ABBA như Dancing Queen, Super Trouper und The Winner Takes It All rất thành công.
Một điều đáng ca ngợi là trong thời gian cộng tác, bốn thành viên trong nhóm luôn tạo một hình ảnh đẹp của hai cặp uyên ương sống hạnh phúc, luôn vui vẻ hòa nhã trước công chúng, cuộc sống rất gương mẫu, không như những ban nhạc khác với các vụ scandal tình cảm hoặc thuốc phiện... Ngay cả sau khi chia tay của Fältskog và Ulvaeus, các thành viên vẫn cố gắng giữ hình ảnh một ban nhạc ABBA đoàn kết trong các project về âm nhạc dù có những khác biệt về cá nhân.

Với một khoảng thời gian hợp tác dài hơn 10 năm, một thời gian tương đối khá dài cho một ban nhạc nổi tiếng so với các ban nhạc nổi tiếng khác, phải chăng căn bản của sự cộng tác trong nhóm ABBA là tình yêu. Có lẽ cũng nhờ tình yêu nầy mà ABBA đã sáng tác và cho chúng ta nghe những dòng nhạc bất hủ.

No more carefree laughter
Silence ever after
Walking through an empty house, tears in my eyes
Here is where the story ends, this is goodbye

Knowing me, knowing you
There is nothing we can do
Knowing me, knowing you
We just have to face it, this time we're through
(This time we're through, this time we're through
This time we're through, we're really through)
Breaking up is never easy, I know but I have to go
(I have to go this time
I have to go, this time I know)
Knowing me, knowing you
It's the best I can do

Mem'ries (mem'ries), good days (good days), bad days (bad days)
They'll be (they'll be), with me (with me) always (always)
In these old familiar rooms children would play
Now there's only emptiness, nothing to say

Knowing me, knowing you
There is nothing we can do
Knowing me, knowing you
We just have to face it, this time we're through
(This time we're through, this time we're through
This time we're through, we're really through)
Breaking up is never easy, I know but I have to go
(I have to go this time
I have to go, this time I know)
Knowing me, knowing you
It's the best I can do

Mamma Mia
Songwriters: Anderson Stig Erik Leopol; Andersson Benny Goran Bro; Ulvaeus Bjoern K.
Artist: Abba
---oo0oo---

I've been cheated by you since I don't know when
So I made up my mind, it must come to an end
Look at me now, will I ever learn
I don't know how, but I suddenly lose control
There's a fire within my soul

Just one look and I can hear a bell ring
One more look and I forget everything

Mamma mia, here I go again
My my, how can I resist you
Mamma mia, does it show again
My my, just how much I've missed you

Yes, I've been brokenhearted
Blue since the day we parted
Why, why did I ever let you go
Mamma mia, now I really know
My my, I could never let you go

I've been angry and sad about things that you do
I can't count all the times that I've told you, we're through
And when you go, when you slam the door
I think you know that you won't be away too long
You know that I'm not that strong

Just one look and I can hear a bell ring
One more look and I forget everything

Mamma mia, here I go again
My my, how can I resist you
Mamma mia, does it show again
My my, just how much I've missed you

Yes, I've been brokenhearted
Blue since the day we parted
Why, why did I ever let you go
Mamma mia, even if I say
Bye bye, leave me now or never
Mamma mia, it's a game we play
Bye bye, doesn't mean forever

Mamma mia, here I go again
My my, how can I resist you
Mamma mia, does it show again
My my, just how much I've missed you

Yes, I've been brokenhearted
Blue since the day we parted
Why, why did I ever let you go
Mamma mia, now I really know
My my, I could never let you go

Money, Money, Money
Songwriters: Andersson, Benny Goran Br; Ulvaeus, Bjoern K.
Artist: Abba
---oo0oo---

I work all night, I work all day, to pay the bills I have to pay
Ain’t it sad
And still there never seems to be a single penny left for me
That’s too bad
In my dreams I have a plan
If I got me a wealthy man
I would’nt have to work at all, I’d fool around and have a ball...

Money, money, money
Must be funny
In the rich man’s world
Money, money, money
Always sunny
In the rich man’s world
Aha-ahaaa
All the things I could do
If I had a little money
It’s a rich man’s world

A man like that is hard to find but I can’t get him off my mind
Ain’t it sad
And if he happens to be free I bet he would’nt fancy me
That’s too bad
So I must leave, I’ll have to go
To las Vegas or Monaco
And win a fortune in a game, my life will never be the same...

Money, money, money
Must be funny
In the rich man’s world
Money, money, money
Always sunny
In the rich man’s world
Aha-ahaaa
All the things I could do
If I had a little money
Its a rich man’s world

Money, money, money
Must be funny
In the rich man’s world
Money, money, money
Always sunny
In the rich man’s world
Aha-ahaaa
All the things I could do
If I had a little money
It’s a rich man’s world

It’s a rich man’s world

Lay All Your Love On Me
Songwriters: Ulvaeus, Bjoern K; Andersson, Benny Goran Br;
Artist: Abba
---oo0oo---

I wasn't jealous before we met
Now every woman I see is a potential threat
And I'm possessive, it isn't nice
You've heard me saying that smoking was my only vice

But now it isn't true, now everything is new
And all I've learned has overturned, I beg of you

Don't go wasting your emotion
Lay all your love on me

It was like shooting a sitting duck
A little small talk, a smile and baby I was stuck
I still don't know what you've done with me
A grown-up woman should never fall so easily

I feel a kind of fear when I don't have you near
Unsatisfied, I skip my pride, I beg you dear

Don't go wasting your emotion
Lay all your love on me
Don't go sharing your devotion
Lay all your love on me

I've had a few little love affairs
They didn't last very long and they've been pretty scarce
I used to think that was sensible
It makes the truth even more incomprehensible

'Cause everything is new, yeah and everything is you
And all I've learned has overturned, what can I do?

Don't go wasting your emotion
Lay all your love on me
Don't go sharing your devotion
Lay all your love on me

Don't go wasting your emotion
Lay all your love on me
Don't go sharing your devotion
Lay all your love on me

Don't go wasting your emotion
Lay all your love on me

Super Trouper
Songwriters: Andersson, Benny Goran Br; Ulvaeus, Bjoern K.
Artist: Abba
---oo0oo---

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

I Have A Dream
Songwriters: Andersson, Benny Goran Br; lvaeus, Bjoern K.
Artist: Abba
---oo0oo---

I have a dream, a song to sing
To help me cope with anything
If you see the wonder of a fairy tale
You can take the future even if you fail
I believe in angels
Something good in everything I see
I believe in angels
When I know the time is right for me
I’ll cross the stream - I have a dream

I have a dream, a fantasy
To help me through reality
And my destination makes it worth the while
Pushing through the darkness still another mile
I believe in angels
Something good in everything I see
I believe in angels
When I know the time is right for me
I’ll cross the stream - I have a dream
I’ll cross the stream - I have a dream

I have a dream, a song to sing
To help me cope with anything
If you see the wonder of a fairy tale
You can take the future even if you fail
I believe in angels
Something good in everything I see
I believe in angels
When I know the time is right for me

The Winner Takes It All
Songwriters: Ulvaeus, Bjorn; Andersson, Benny
Artist: Abba
---oo0oo---

I don't wanna talk
About the things we've gone through
Though it's hurting me
Now it's history

I've played all my cards
And that's what you've done too
Nothing more to say
No more ace to play

The winner takes it all
The loser standing small
Beside the victory
That's her destiny

I was in your arms
Thinking I belonged there
I figured it made sense
Building me a fence

Building me a home
Thinking I'd be strong there
But I was a fool
Playing by the rules

The Gods may throw a dice
Their minds as cold as ice
And someone way down here
Loses someone dear

The winner takes it all
(Takes it all)
The loser has to fall
(Has to fall)
It's simple and it's plain
(Yes, it's plain)
Why should I complain

But tell me does she kiss
Like I used to kiss you
Does it feel the same
When she calls your name

Somewhere deep inside
You must know I miss you
But what can I say
Rules must be obeyed

The judges will decide
(Decide)
The likes of me abide
(Abide)
Spectators of the show
Always staying low
(Staying low)

The game is on again
(All again)
A lover or a friend
(Or a friend)
A big thing or a small
(Big or small)
The winner takes it all
(Takes it all)

I don't wanna talk
If it makes you feel sad
And I understand
You've come to shake my hand

I apologize
If it makes you feel bad
Seeing me so tense
No self-confidence
But you see

The winner takes it all
The winner takes it all

Someone winner
Takes it all
And one loses
Has to fall

From a guide
From the side
Makes that feeling
Someone here

Takes it all
Has to fall
This is magic
Someone here

SOS
Songwriters: Anderson Stig Erik Leopol; Andersson Benny Goran Bro; Ulvaeus Bjoern K.
Artist: Abba
---ooOoo---

Where are those happy days, they seem so hard to find
I try to reach for you, but you have closed your mind
Whatever happened to our love
I wish I understood
It used to be so nice, it used to be so good

So when you're near me, darling can't you hear me
SOS
The love you gave me, nothing else can save me
SOS
When you're gone (when you're gone)
How can I even try to go on
When you're gone (when you're gone)
Though I try how can I carry on

You seem so far away though you are standing near
You made me feel alive, but something died I fear
I really tried to make it out
I wish I understood
What happened to our love, it used to be so good

So when you're near me, darling can't you hear me
SOS
The love you gave me, nothing else can save me
SOS
When you're gone (when your gone)
How can I even try to go on
When you're gone (when your gone)
Though I try how can I carry on

So when you're near me, darling can't you hear me
SOS
And the love you gave me, nothing else can save me
SOS
When you're gone (when you're gone)
How can I even try to go on
When you're gone (when you're gone)
Though I try how can I carry on
When you're gone (when you're gone)
How can I even try to go on
When you're gone (when your gone)
Though I try how can I carry on

Chiquitita
Songwriters: Andersson, Benny Goran Br; Ulvaeus, Bjoern K.
Artist: Abba
---oo0oo---

Chiquitita, tell me what’s wrong
You’re enchained by your own sorrow
In your eyes there is no hope for tomorrow
How I hate to see you like this
There is no way you can deny it
I can see that you’re oh so sad, so quiet

Chiquitita, tell me the truth
I’m a shoulder you can cry on
Your best friend, I’m the one you must rely on
You were always sure of yourself
Now I see you’ve broken a feather
I hope we can patch it up together

Chiquitita, you and I know
How the heartaches come and they go and the scars they’re leaving
You’ll be dancing once again and the pain will end
You will have no time for grieving
Chiquitita, you and I cry
But the sun is still in the sky and shining above you
Let me hear you sing once more like you did before
Sing a new song, chiquitita
Try once more like you did before
Sing a new song, chiquitita

So the walls came tumbling down
And your love’s a blown out candle
All is gone and it seems too hard to handle
Chiquitita, tell me the truth
There is no way you can deny it
I see that you’re oh so sad, so quiet

Chiquitita, you and I know
How the heartaches come and they go and the scars they’re leaving
You’ll be dancing once again and the pain will end
You will have no time for grieving
Chiquitita, you and I cry
But the sun is still in the sky and shining above you
Let me hear you sing once more like you did before
Sing a new song, chiquitita
Try once more like you did before
Sing a new song, chiquitita
Try once more like you did before
Sing a new song, chiquitita

Thank You For The Music
Songwriters: Benny Andersson & Bjorn Ulvaeus
Artist: Abba
---oo0oo---

I'm nothing special, in fact I'm a bit of a bore
If I tell a joke, you've probably heard it before
But I have a talent, a wonderful thing
'Cause everyone listens when I start to sing
I'm so grateful and proud
All I want is to sing it out loud

So I say
Thank you for the music, the songs I'm singing
Thanks for all the joy they're bringing
Who can live without it, I ask in all honesty
What would life be?
Without a song or a dance what are we?
So I say thank you for the music
For giving it to me

Mother says I was a dancer before I could walk
(M'M)She says I began to sing long before I could talk
And I've often wondered, how did it all start
Who found out that nothing can capture a heart
Like a melody can
Well, whoever it was, I'm a fan

So I say
Thank you for the music, the songs I'm singing
Thanks for all the joy they're bringing
Who can live without it, I ask in all honesty
What would life be?
Without a song or a dance what are we?
So I say thank you for the music
For giving it to me

I've been so lucky, I am the girl with golden hair
I wanna sing it out to everybody
What a joy, what a life, what a chance!

Thank you for the music, the songs I'm singing
Thanks for all the joy they're bringing
Who can live without it, I ask in all honesty
What would life be?
Without a song or a dance what are we?
So I say thank you for the music
For giving it to me

So I Say
Thank you for the music
For giving it to me...

Two For The Price Of One
Songwriters: Benny Andersson & Bjorn Ulvaeus
Artist: Abba
---oo0oo---

He had what you might call a simple occupation
He cleaned the platforms of the local railway station
With no romance in his life
Sometimes he wished he had a wife

He read the matrimonial advertising pages
The cries for help from different people different ages
But they had nothing to say at least not until the day
When something special he read, this is what it said

If you dream of the girl for you
Then call us and get two for the price of one
We're the answer if you feel blue
So call us and get two for the price of one

If you dream of the girl for you
(If you are dreaming of someone who might be right for you)
Then call us and get two for the price of one
(Why don't you call us and you'll get two for the price of one)

We're the answer if you feel blue
(We may be the answers to your problem, a chance with we two)
So call us and get two for the price of one
(Why don't you call us and you'll get two)

He called the number and a voice said "Alice Whiting"
The voice was husky and it sounded quite exciting
He was amazed at his luck
The purest streak of gold he'd struck

He said, "I read your ad it sounded rather thrilling
I think a meeting could be mutually fulfilling
Why don't we meet for a chat
(Meet for a chat)
The three of us in my flat
(In my flat)
I can't forget what I read, this is what it said"

If you dream of the girl for you
Then call us and get two for the price of one
We're the answer if you feel blue
So call us and get two for the price of one

If you dream of the girl for you
(If you are dreaming of someone who might be right for you)
Then call us and get two for the price of one
(Why don't you call us and you'll get two for the price of one)

We're the answer if you feel blue
(We may be the answers to your problem, a chance with we two)
So call us and get two for the price of one
(Why don't you call us and you'll get two)

She said, "I'm sure we must be perfect for each other
And if you doubt it you'll be certain when you meet my mother"

Waterloo
Songwriters: Benny Andersson, Stig Anderson & Bjorn Ulvaeus

My my, at Waterloo Napoleon did surrender
Oh yeah, and I have met my destiny in quite a similar way

The history book on the shelf
Is always repeating itself

Oh yeah, and now it seems my only chance is giving up the fight

And how could I ever refuse?
I feel like I win when I lose

Promise you'll love me forever more

Fernando
Songwriters: Benny Andersson, Stig Anderson & Bjorn Ulvaeus
Artist: Abba
---oo0oo---

Can you hear the drums Fernando?
I remember long ago another starry night like this
In the firelight Fernando
You were humming to yourself and softly strumming your guitar
I could hear the distant drums
And sounds of bugle calls were coming from afar

They were closer now Fernando
Every hour every minute seemed to last eternally
I was so afraid Fernando
We were young and full of life and none of us prepared to die
And I'm not ashamed to say
The roar of guns and cannons almost made me cry

There was something in the air that night
The stars were bright, Fernando
They were shining there for you and me
For liberty, Fernando
Though we never thought that we could lose
There's no regret
If I had to do the same again
I would, my friend, Fernando

Now we're old and grey Fernando
And since many years I haven't seen a rifle in your hand
Can you hear the drums Fernando?
Do you still recall the fateful night we crossed the Rio Grande?
I can see it in your eyes
How proud you were to fight for freedom in this land

There was something in the air that night
The stars were bright, Fernando
They were shining there for you and me
For liberty, Fernando
Though we never thought that we could lose
There's no regret
If I had to do the same again
I would, my friend, Fernando

There was something in the air that night
The stars were bright, Fernando
They were shining there for you and me
For liberty, Fernando
Though we never thought that we could lose
There's no regret
If I had to do the same again
I would, my friend, Fernando
Yes, if I had to do the same again
I would, my friend, Fernando...

Gimme Gimme Gimme
(A Man After Midnight)
Songwriters: Benny Andersson, Benny Goran & Bjorn Ulvaeus
Artist: Abba
---oo0oo---

Half past twelve
And I'm watching the late show in my flat all alone
How I hate to spend the evening on my own

Autumn winds
Blowing outside the window as I look around the room
And it makes me so depressed to see the room

There's not a soul out there
No one to hear my prayer

Gimme, gimme, gimme a man after midnight
Won't somebody help me chase these shadows away
Gimme, gimme, gimme a man after midnight
Take me through the darkness to the break of the day

Movie stars
Find the end of the rainbow with that fortune to win
It's so different from the world I'm living in

Tired of TV
I open the window and I gaze into the night
But there's nothing there to see, no one in sight

There's not a soul out there
No one to hear my prayer

Gimme, gimme, gimme a man after midnight
Won't somebody help me chase these shadows away
Gimme, gimme, gimme a man after midnight
Take me through the darkness to the break of the day

Gimme, gimme, gimme a man after midnight
Gimme, gimme, gimme a man after midnight

There's not a soul out there
No one to hear my prayer

Gimme, gimme, gimme a man after midnight
Won't somebody help me chase these shadows away
Gimme, gimme, gimme a man after midnight
Take me through the darkness to the break of the day

Gimme, gimme, gimme a man after midnight
Won't somebody help me chase these shadows away
Gimme, gimme, gimme a man after midnight
Take me through the darkness to the break of the day

Does Your Mother Know
Songwriters: Benny Goran Br. Andersson, Bjorn K. Ulvaeus
Artist: Abba
---oo0oo---

You're so hot, teasin' me
So you're blue but I can't take a chance on a chick like you
It's something I couldn't do
There's that look in your eyes
I can read in your face that your feelings are driving you wild
Ah, but girl you're only a child

Well I can dance with you honey
If you think it's funny
Does your mother know that you're out?
And I can chat with you baby
Flirt a little maybe
Does your mother know that you're out?

Take it easy
(Take it easy)
Better slow down girl
That's no way to go
Does your mother know?
Take it easy
(Take it easy)
Try to cool it girl
Take it nice and slow
Does your mother know

I can see what you want
But you seem pretty young to be searchin' for that kind of fun
So maybe I'm not the one
Now you're so cute, I like your style
And I know what you mean when you give me a flash of that smile
But girl you're only a child

Well I can dance with you honey
If you think it's funny
Does your mother know that you're out?
And I can chat with you baby
Flirt a little maybe
Does your mother know that you're out?

Take it easy
(Take it easy)
Better slow down girl
That's no way to go
Does your mother know?
Take it easy
(Take it easy)
Try to cool it girl
Take it nice and slow
Does your mother know?
Alright

Well I can dance with you honey
If you think it's funny
Does your mother know that you're out?
And I can chat with you baby
Flirt a little maybe
Does your mother know that you're out?

Well I can dance with you honey
If you think it's funny
Does your mother know that you're out?
And I can chat with you baby
Flirt a little maybe
Does your mother know that you're out?

The Name Of The Game
Songwriters: Benny Goran Br. Andersson, Bjorn K. Ulvaeus
Artist: Abba
---oo0oo---

I've seen you twice, in a short time
Only a week since we started
It seems to me, for every time
I'm getting more open-hearted

I was an impossible case
No-one ever could reach me
But I think I can see in your face
There's a lot you can teach me
So I wanna know..

What's the name of the game?
Does it mean anything to you?
What's the name of the game?
Can you feel it the way I do?
Tell me please, 'cause I have to know
I'm a bashful child, beginning to grow

And you make me talk
And you make me feel
And you make me show
What I'm trying to conceal
If I trust in you, would you let me down?
Would you laugh at me, if I said I care for you?
Could you feel the same way too?
I wanna know..

The name of the game

I have no friends, no-one to see
And I am never invited
Now I am here, talking to you
No wonder I get excited

Your smile, and the sound of your voice
And the way you see through me
Got a feeling, you give me no choice
But it means a lot to me
So I wanna know..

What's the name of the game?
(Your smile and the sound of your voice)
Does it mean anything to you?
(Got a feeling you give me no choice)
But it means a lot, what's the name of the game?
(Your smile and the sound of your voice)
Can you feel it the way I do?
Tell me please, 'cause I have to know
I'm a bashful child, beginning to grow

And you make me talk
And you make me feel
And you make me show
What I'm trying to conceal
If I trust in you, would you let me down?
Would you laugh at me, if I said I care for you?
Could you feel the same way too?
I wanna know..
Oh yes I wanna know..

The name of the game
(I was an impossible case)
Does it mean anything to you?
(But I think I can see in your face)
That it means a lot
What's the name of the game?
(Your smile and the sound of your voice)
Can you feel it the way I do?
(Got a feeling you give me no choice)
But it means a lot, what's the name of the game?
(I was an impossible case)
Does it mean anything to you?
(But I think I can see in your face)
That it means a lot

Dame! Dame! Dame!
(Gimme Gimme Gimme - in Spanish)
Artist: Abba
---oo0oo---

El reloj
ya marco medianoche
y otra vez encontre
que tan solo me acompana la TV

El soplar
de ese viento afuera
vive la deolacion
me oprime con angustia el corazon.
No hay mas que soledad
nadie, ni por piedad.

Dame, dame, dame
amor esta noche
alguien que me ayude
a las sombras borrar
Dame, dame, dame
amor esta noche
hasta que amanezca
ver el dia aclarar

Tantos hay
con gran suerte y fortuna
todo pueden conseguir
tan distinto a lo que tengo que vivir

Aburrida me encuentro esta noche
y la gran oscuridad
es mi siempre obligada amistad.
No hay mas que soledad
nadie, ni por piedad.

Dame, dame, dame
amor esta noche
alguien que me ayude
a las sombras borrar
Dame, dame, dame
amor esta noche
hasta que amanezca
ver el dia aclarar

Dame, dame, dame
amor esta noche

Dame, dame, dame
amor esta noche

No hay mas que soledad
nadie, ni por piedad.

Dame, dame, dame
amor esta noche
alguien que me ayude
a las sombras borrar
Dame, dame, dame
amor esta noche
hasta que amanezca

Dame, dame, dame

Dame, dame, dame

Hole In Your Soul
Songwriters: Benny Andersson & Bjorn Ulvaeus
Artist: Abba
---oo0oo---

You feel bad, let me tell you, we all get the blues
Sometimes life is a burden, weighed down in your shoes
When it's bad, worse, worst
(And when you're feeling so bad)

And you think you're cursed
(And you've got it sad)
Well, if there's one thing for the better that can turn you loose

It's gotta be rock'n roll
To fill the hole in your soul
There's gotta be rock'n roll
To fill the hole in your soul

My friend Sam is a chauffeur, Annie goes to school
Jerry works at the office, Sue lies by the pool
But on all weekends
(Together again)

When I meet my friends
(I'm gonna see them now)
And we're lookin' round for the action we sure play it cool

It's gotta be rock'n roll
To fill the hole in your soul
There's gotta be rock'n roll
To fill the hole in your soul

Ah-haa (ah-haa, ah-haa)
You paint your world and use all colours
Ah-haa (ah-haa)
And then you find it all comes out too bright
You know it's only a lie

Ah-haa (ah-haa, ah-haa)
The songs you sing are too romantic
Ah-haa (ah-haa)
And when you want the truth
They only spit in your eye

Oh yeah, they're only telling you lies
Oh yeah, there's gotta be rock'n roll
To fill the hole in your soul

You feel bad, let me tell you, we all get the blues
Sometimes life is a burden, weighed down in your shoes
When it's bad, worse, worst
(You know you're feeling so bad)

And you think you're cursed
(And you've got it sad)
Well, if there's one thing for the better that can turn you loose

It's gotta be rock'n roll
To fill the hole in your soul
There's gotta be rock'n roll
To fill the hole in your soul

There's gotta be rock'n roll...
To fill the hole in your soul
There's gotta be rock'n roll...
To fill the hole in your soul

There's gotta be rock'n roll...
To fill the hole in your soul
There's gotta be rock'n roll...
To fill the hole in your soul

There's gotta be rock'n roll...
To fill the hole in your soul

The Way Old Friends Do
Songwriters: Benny Andersson & Bjorn Ulvaeus
Artist: Abba
---oo0oo---

You and I can share the silence
Finding comfort together
The way old friends do
And after fights and words of violence
We make up with each other
The way old friends do
Times of joy and times of sorrow
We will always see it through
Oh I don't care what comes tomorrow
We can face it together
The way old friends do

You and I can share the silence
Finding comfort together
The way old friends do
And after fights and words of violence
We make up with each other
The way old friends do
Times of joy and times of sorrow
We will always see it through
Oh I don't care what comes tomorrow
We can face it together
The way old friends do

We can face it together
The way old friends do

So Long

Artist: Abba
---oo0oo---

You think you're gonna make me softer with your fancy car
But I can tell you all your tricks ain't gonna get you far
They say, 'That money's got a magic touch'
But not to me, it doesn't mean that much
You won't have me tonight
All right, all right, all right, all right

So long, see you honey
You can't buy me with your money
Tracy, Daisy, they may be crazy
But I'll never be your girl

So long, see you honey
You can't buy me with your money
You know it's not worth trying
So long, so long, so long

You didn't have to send me flowers like you did today
I wouldn't keep a thing from you, I gave them all away
The girls might fall for everything you've got
But I'm not one of them, you know I'm not
You won't have me tonight
All right, all right, all right, all right

So long, see you honey
You can't buy me with your money
Tracy, Daisy, they may be crazy
But I'll never be your girl

So long, see you honey
You can't buy me with your money
You know it's not worth trying
So long, so long, so long

So long, see you honey
You can't buy me with your money
You know it's not worth trying
So long, so long, so long

So long, so long, so long
So long, so long, so long

Kisses Of Fire
Songwriters: Benny Goran Br. Andersson, Bjoern K. Ulvaeus
Artist: Abba
---oo0oo---

Lay your head on my chest so you hear every beat of my heart
Now there's nothing at all that can keep us apart
Touch my lips, close your eyes and see with your fingertips
Things that you do, and you know I'm crazy 'bout you

Kisses of fire, burning, burning
I'm at the point of no returning
Kisses of fire, sweet devotions
Caught in a land-slide of emotions
I've had my share of love affairs but they were nothing compared to this
Oh, I'm riding higher than the sky and there is fire in every kiss
Kisses of fire
Kisses of fire

When you sleep by my side I feel safe and I know I belong
Still it's making me scared that my love is so strong
Losing you is a nightmare fate and to me it's new
Never before did you see me begging for more

Kisses of fire, burning, burning
I'm at the point of no returning
Kisses of fire, sweet devotions
Caught in a land-slide of emotions
I've had my share of love affairs but they were nothing compared to this
Oh, I'm riding higher than the sky and there is fire in every kiss
Kisses of fire
Kisses of fire

Kisses of fire, burning, burning
I'm at the point of no returning
Kisses of fire, sweet devotions
Caught in a land-slide of emotions
Kisses of fire, burning, burning
(I'm at the point of no returning)
Kisses of fire, sweet devotions
I'm riding higher than the sky and there is fire in every kiss
(Caught in a land-slide of emotions)
Kisses of fire, burning, burning
I'm at the point of no returning
Kisses of fire, sweet devotions
Caught in a land-slide of emotions

That's Me
Songwriters: Benny Andersson, Stig Anderson & Bjorn Ulvaeus
Artist: Abba
---oo0oo---

Are you sure you wanna hear more
What if I ain't worth the while
Not the style you'd be looking for
If I'm sweet tonight
Things look different in the morning light
I'm jealous and I'm proud
If you hurt my feelings I'll cry out loud
I'm Carrie not the kind of girl you'd marry
That's me

Are you sure you wanna hear more
Would I be the one you seek
Mild and meek like the girl next door
Don't you realise
I may be an angel in disguise
It's lonely to be free
But I'm not a man's toy, I'll never be
I'm Carrie not the kind of girl you'd marry
That's me

I don't believe in fairy-tales
Sweet nothings in my ear
But I do believe in sympathy
That's me, you see

Are you sure you wanna hear more
Won't you have a drink with me
Just to see you're not really sore
I can't help my ways
I'm just not the girl to hide my face
I'm Carrie not the kind of girl you'd marry
That's me

I'm Carrie not the kind of girl you'd marry
That's me

There's a special love
Like an eagle flying with a dove
I'll find it in the end
If I keep on searching, but until then
I'm Carrie not the kind of girl you'd marry
That's me

There's a special love
Like an eagle flying with a dove
I'll find it in the end
If I keep on searching, but until then
I'm Carrie not the kind of girl you'd marry
That's me

I Let The Music Speak
Songwriters: Benny Goran Br. Andersson, Bjoern K. Ulvaeus
Artist: Abba
---oo0oo---

I'm hearing images, I'm seeing songs
No poet has ever painted
Voices call out to me, straight to my heart
So strange yet we're so well acquainted
I let the music speak, with no restraints
I let my feelings take over
Carry my soul away into the world
Where beauty meets the darkness of the day

Where my mind is like an open window
Where the high and healing winds blow
From my shallow sleep the sounds awake me
I let them take me
(Let them wake me, let them now, let them take me)

Let it be a joke
Let it be a smile
Let it be a farce if it makes me laugh for a little while
Let it be a tear
Let it be a sigh
Coming from a heart, speaking to a heart, let it be a cry

Some streets are emptiness, dry leaves of autumn
Rustling down an old alley
And in the dead of night I find myself
A blind man in some ancient valley
I let the music speak, leading me gently
Urging me like a lover
Leading me all the way
Into a place
Where beauty will defeat the darkest day

Where I'm one with every grand illusion
No disturbance, no intrusion
Where I let the wistful sounds seduce me
I let them use me
(All illusion, no disturbance, no intrusion)

Let it be a joke
Let it be a smile
Let it be a farce if it makes me laugh for a little while
Let it be a tear
Let it be a sigh
Coming from a heart, speaking to a heart, let it be a cry

Let it be a tear
Let it be a sigh
Coming from a heart, speaking to a heart, let it be a cry

Let it be the joy of each new sunrise
Or the moment when a day dies
I surrender without reservation
No explanations
No questions why
I take it to me and let it flow through me
Yes, I let the music speak
I let the music speak

Andante, Andante
Songwriters: Benny Goran Br. Andersson, Bjorn K. Ulvaeus
Artist: Abba
---oo0oo---

Take it easy with me, please
Touch me gently like a summer evening breeze
Take your time, make it slow
Andante, Andante
Just let the feeling grow

Make your fingers soft and light
Let your body be the velvet of the night
Touch my soul, you know how
Andante, Andante
Go slowly with me now

I'm your music
(I am your music and I am your song)
I'm your song
(I am your music and I am your song)
Play me time and time again and make me strong
(Play me again 'cause you're making me strong)
Make me sing, make me sound
(You make me sing and you make me...)
Andante, Andante
Tread lightly on my ground
Andante, Andante
Oh please don't let me down

There's a shimmer in your eyes
Like the feeling of a thousand butterflies
Please don't talk, go on, play
Andante, Andante
And let me float away

I'm your music
(I am your music and I am your song)
I'm your song
(I am your music and I am your song)
Play me time and time again and make me strong
(Play me again 'cause you're making me strong)
Make me sing, make me sound
(You make me sing and you make me...)
Andante, Andante
Tread lightly on my ground
Andante, Andante
Oh please don't let me down

Make me sing, make me sound
(You make me sing and you make me...)
Andante, Andante
Tread lightly on my ground
Andante, Andante
Oh please don't let me down
Andante, Andante
Oh please don't let me down...

Move On
Songwriters: Benny Andersson, Stig Anderson, & Bjorn Ulvaeus
Artist: Abba
---oo0oo---

(They say a restless body can hide a peaceful soul.
A voyager, ad a settler, they both have a distant goal.
If I explore the heavens, or if I search inside.
Well, it really doesn't matter as long as I can tell myself
I've always tried.)

---oo0oo---

Like a roller in the ocean, life is motion
Move on
Like a wind that's always blowing, life is flowing
Move on
Like the sunrise in the morning, life is dawning
Move on
How I treasure every minute
Being part of it, being in it
With the urge to move on

I've travelled every country, I've travelled in my mind
It seems we're on a journey, a trip through space and time
And somewhere lies the answer
To all the questions why
What really makes the difference
Between all dead and living things, the will to stay alive

Like a roller in the ocean (la la la la la la-la)
Life is motion (la la la la la la-la)
Move on (la la la la-la)
Like a wind that's always blowing (la la la la la la-la)
Life is flowing (la la la la la la-la)
Move on (la la la la-la)
Like the sunrise in the morning (la la la la la la-la)
Life is dawning (la la la la la la-la)
Move on (la la la la-la)
How I treasure every minute (la la la la)
Being part of it (la la la la)
Being in it (la la la la)
With the urge to move on

The morning breeze that ripples the surface of the sea
The crying of the seagulls that hover over me
I see it and I hear it
But how can I explain
The wonder of the moment
To be alive, to feel the sun that follows every rain

Like a roller in the ocean (la la la la la la-la)
Life is motion (la la la la la la-la)
Move on (la la la la-la)
Like a wind that's always blowing (la la la la la la-la)
Life is flowing (la la la la la la-la)
Move on (la la la la-la)
Like the sunrise in the morning (la la la la la la-la)
Life is dawning (la la la la la la-la)
Move on (la la la la-la)
How I treasure every minute (la la la la)
Being part of it (la la la la-ah)
Being in it
With the urge to move on

La la la la la la-la, la la la la la la-la, la la la la-la
Like a wind that's always blowing
La la la la la la-la
La la la la la la-la (life is flowing)
La la la la-la (move on)
Like the sunrise in the morning
La la la la la la-la
La la la la la la-la (life is dawning)
La la la la-la (move on)
How I treasure every minute (la la la la)
Being part of it (la la la la-ah)
Being in it
With the urge to move on
La la la la la la-la, la la la la la la-la, la la la la-la
Like a wind that's always blowing....

Slipping Through My Fingers
Songwriters: Benny Goran Bror Andersson, Bjoern K.Ulvaeus, Aleksej Anatolevich Kortnev
Artist: Abba
---oo0oo---

Schoolbag in hand, she leaves home in the early morning
Waving goodbye with an absent-minded smile
I watch her go with a surge of that well-known sadness
And I have to sit down for a while
The feeling that I'm losing her forever
And without really entering her world
I'm glad whenever I can share her laughter
That funny little girl

Slipping through my fingers all the time
I try to capture every minute
The feeling in it
Slipping through my fingers all the time
Do I really see what's in her mind
Each time I think I'm close to knowing
She keeps on growing
Slipping through my fingers all the time

Sleep in our eyes, her and me at the breakfast table
Barely awake, I let precious time go by
Then when she's gone there's that odd melancholy feeling
And a sense of guilt I can't deny
What happened to the wonderful adventures
The places I had planned for us to go
(slipping through my fingers all the time)
Well, some of that we did but most we didn't
And why I just don't know

Slipping through my fingers all the time
I try to capture every minute
The feeling in it
Slipping through my fingers all the time
Do I really see what's in her mind
Each time I think I'm close to knowing
She keeps on growing
Slipping through my fingers all the time

Sometimes I wish that I could freeze the picture
And save it from the funny tricks of time
Slipping through my fingers...

Slipping through my fingers all the time

Schoolbag in hand she leaves home in the early morning
Waving goodbye with an absent-minded smile...
