[lolly]

I refuse to believe Susanne Sundfør wasn't heavily influenced by LAYLOM specifically.

 

[Pingu]

Putting this at the end is QUITE a bizarre choice but I kind of like it where it is

On the vinyl there's a great moment where the fade-out runs into the applause from the next track but I would imagine that's not the case here.

 

[lolly]

Oh God, ABBA DISCO FLASHBACKS

 

[Jark]

the drama of this song is absolutely unparalleled every line is dripping with it!

so many moments I love and want to single out but the synth that drifts in during the second verse under "I still don't know what you've done with me" is so MYSTERIOUS and SEXY.

lyrically the whole thing is *chef's kiss* also. yes, yes it is ABBA's greatest song.

10 Super Trouper
10 The Winner Takes it All
09 On and On and On
08 Andante, Andante
08 Me and I
08 Happy New Year
08 Our Last Summer
09 The Piper
11 Lay All Your Love On Me

was it really a UK only single?!

 

[Pingu]

10. The Way Old Friends Do

 

[Iguana]

Is this better than the version they did (relatively) recently?

 

[Iguana]

Is this a LIVE ONLY track?

 

[lolly]

You haven't lived until you've been to an OFFICIAL ABBA DAY DISCO for the group singlong to this at the end

 

[Iguana]

And why do I feel like they are going to do this during Voyage

 

[Pingu]

Is this a LIVE ONLY track?

Yes although there are a hell of a lot of synth, drum and vocal overdubs on this version.

 

[Jark]

And why do I feel like they are going to do this during Voyage

it's very similar to Ode to Freedom now I think about it. but better.

10 Super Trouper
10 The Winner Takes it All
09 On and On and On
08 Andante, Andante
08 Me and I
08 Happy New Year

10a. Elaine

 

[Tisch]

I get it's a "nice" closer but NAH!

 

[Iguana]

 

[Pingu]

I always think Elaine kind of peters out a little bit after the first killer 20 seconds.

 

[Iguana]
