New and old interviews, rare footage. Sorry, it\'s not in English but it\'s not hard to figure out what they\'re talking about. This was apparently aired on Bulgarian television in 2004 of later as it includes the Mamma Mia premiere and Agnetha\'s first album in 17 years (My Colouring Book).

ABBA - Gimme Gimme Gimme * (A Man After Midnight)

Wed, 19 Mar 2008 05:43:15 +0100

A good look at ABBA in the recording studio.

"Gimme! Gimme! Gimme! (A Man After Midnight)" was written by Benny Andersson and BjÃ¶rn Ulvaeus, with the lead vocal sung by Agnetha FÃ¤ltskog. Agnetha, as the narrator, weaves the image of a lonely young woman who longs for a romantic relationship, and views her loneliness as a forbidding darkness of night, even drawing parallels to how the happy endings of movie stars are so different from her own existence.

The song was recorded at Polar Music Studios in Stockholm, Sweden, in August 1979, and was ready for release in October of that year, in conjunction with the group\'s tour of North America and Europe.

"But at the same charity event, Agnetha met Peter Cetera. Agnetha was a fan of Peter and he was a fan of ABBA. So after the show they had dinner and that\'s when they began talking about Peter maybe producing an album for Agnetha."

In 1987, Cetera produced Swedish former ABBA member Agnetha FÃ¤ltskog\'s third English-language album, I Stand Alone, in Los Angeles. He co-wrote the title track (with Bruce Gaitsch) and sang a duet on "I Wasn\'t the One (Who Said Goodbye)."

The song peaked at No. 93 on Billboard Hot 100 and became a No. 19 hit on the Billboard Adult Contemporary chart.

ABBA - Festfolket - People Need Love (Live Swedish TV 1972)

This is TWO YEARS before ABBA became internationally famous by winning the Eurovision Song Contest on April 6, 1974 with the song "Waterloo".

Waterloo is the place where Napoleon Bonaparte met his defeat at an epic battle in 1815. This song uses the battle as a metaphor for a woman who gives in and falls in love with a man - he's her "Waterloo."

Originally recorded in Swedish, it was ABBA's Swedish version that won the Eurovision Song Contest in 1974, giving the band a huge career boost.

ABBA member Bjorn Ulvaeus wrote this after separating from wife and fellow band member, Agnetha. It's about a divorce where one person doesn't want to separate and clings desperately to the marriage.

Bjorn has said that while he usually didn't use drugs or alcohol while writing, he had a bottle of brandy next to him while writing the lyrics for this song. It was very personal to him.

The two songs that were chosen as singles from 'Waterloo' (1974) are âHoney Honeyâ and the big burst of energy that is the title track. Their instincts to really rock it out on âWaterlooâ paid off for the quartet fairly handsomely, since it was the entry that helped them to win the Eurovision Song Contest in Europe and was the breakthrough in England that they had been looking for.

On âHoney Honey,â Agnetha and Frida purr their way through the song in full-on sex kitten mode and show just how far theyâve come since their lackluster debut single, âPeople Need Love.â If you want to hear the earliest example of ABBA getting it right, then Waterloo is the perfect place for you to start.
