This is one of my favourite 'up-tempo rockers', by the wizards of Swedish Pop...ABBA. Come on... I like Prog Rock but everybody must have a favourite ABBA song! This, and 'Ring, Ring', are great songs for a guitar band to interpret.

Pop/Rock, Psychedelic, Ambient, Rhythm & Blues and beyond.
Major Snagg is the invented name of the 'band' that perform all my own musical creations. (songs and instrumentals). I play guitars, bass, rudimentary keyboards, harmonica, and sing. Melody has always been important to me... lyrics and guitar solos have to say or communicate something. I create musical worlds that I hope that you dear listener, will also want to explore and live in for a few moments...or longer if you feel that way inclined.

Story behind the song
If I was in a gigging 'covers band', (I suppose I am in a way) this would be on the set list somewhere. It's such a well written song, that it's lends itself for any kind of treatment / interpretation. I've had a ball doing this over the last couple of weeks.

You must know them...you don't?...shame on you!... ha ha

A nice take on this ABBA classic. A new wave version with more rock'n roll heart than the original! To me it has much bigger balls than the original :)

Can tell it was a blast covering this, brilliant idea. It was in there all along and you managed to squeeze out a big dose of hip that squarely holds up right now, right down to false ending, wow!

Great job!! And you didn't even need the girls to do the harmonies! I like your own additions too. Takes me back to the "glam" era and the Eurovision Song Contest days before things became "political"

It sounds great David, even though I've never heard the original version. I DO like this version though. Nice vocals and guitars throughout.
