Perché non cantano in svedese?
Ho deciso di aderire ad un nuovo "razzismo al contrario": la musica Pop svedese

Sembra incredibile poter dire "È uscito il nuovo album degli ABBA". Nel 1979 c'erano già i Compact Disc?

E bravi Abba, è valsa la pena aspettarvi quarant’anni | Rolling Stone Italia
Nel nuovo 'Voyage' non inseguono i trend del pop contemporaneo, ma riesumano il loro sound classico per cantare la tristezza della vita adulta. Fuori sono Elton John, dentro sono Leonard Cohen

Forse c'è una sorta di maledizione sulle pop band svedesi.
O forse è la Vita.
Negli ABBA, Agnetha e Bjorn si sposarono nel 1971. Divorziarono nel 1980.
Nel 1971 (dopo un precedente matrimonio) Frida si mise con Benny. Si sposarono nel 1978. Si separarono nel 1980 e divorziarono nel 1981.
"The Winner Takes It All" parla di quest'ultimo divorzio.
I don't wanna talk
About 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's 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
The loser has to fall
It's simple and 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
The likes of me abide
Spectators of the show
Always staying low
The game is on again
A lover or a friend
A big thing or a small
The winner 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
So the winner takes it all
And the loser has to fall
Throw a dice, cold as ice
Way down here, someone dear
Takes it all, has to fall
It seems plain to me
E anche Maria Smith e Victor Thell si sono lasciati.
La loro canzone sul tema è "Forgive Me My Friend".
I-I-I, I've been keeping secrets from you dear
There's things of me are
Scared and you're my fear
The crack goes in the ground
And you-ou-ou, you've been
Coming closer to the edge
Wonder what goes on in my head
And so I shut you out
And I guess that we don't
Need to be falling apart
But you will always have a
Special place in my heart
I never wanted this to end
Can you forgive me friend?
'Cause I fell in the hole
In the hole, in the hole
My heart was turning cold
Turning cold, turning cold
I never wanted this to end
Can you forgive me friend?
And I-I-I, I promised you that
We would never change
Say you and me would
Always stay the same
How I let you down
And I guess that we don't
Need to be falling apart
But you will always have a
Special place in my heart
I never wanted this to end
Can you forgive me friend?
'Cause I fell in the hole
In the hole, in the hole
My heart was turning cold
Turning cold, turning cold
I never wanted this to end
Can you forgive me friend? (Hey)
So can, can you forgive me friend?
Can you forgive me friend
For breaking us apart?
'Cause in the end
I didn't want this to end
Can you forgive me friend?
Forgive my ugly heart
And I guess that we don't
Need to be falling apart
But you will always have
A special place in my heart
I never wanted this to end
Can you forgive me friend?
'Cause I fell in the hole
In the hole, in the hole
My heart was turning cold
Turning cold, turning cold
I never wanted this to end
Can you forgive me friend? (Hey)

Chi l'avrebbe detto che Spotify avrebbe cerificato che ho ascoltato 30.000 minuti di musica, che gli Smith And Thell sono gli autori che ho ascoltato di più, che tra i Top 5 c'è un'altro gruppo svedese, che 4 su 5 delle mie canzoni più ascoltate sono degli Smith and Thell, e comprendono 3 diverse versioni di Goliath?
Come avranno fatto a sapere così bene i miei gusti?
DI CERTO È COLPA DEL VACCINO COL CÌP DI BILGHIEZ!

Nel 2021, i redivivi ABBA hanno... hanno fatto il solito album di cover di canzoni di Natale, come altri 40 milioni di cantanti, qualcuno penserà.
No: gli ABBA hanno fatto una canzone di Natale.
Little things
Like my gentle touch
It's amazing, darling
That so little can achieve so much
Little things
Like your sleepy smile
As the brand new day is dawning
It's a lovely Christmas morning
And why don't we stay in bed for a while
Soon enough, they'll be waking up from their dreams
Children bursting with giggles and screams
Oh, what joy Santa brings
Thanks, old friend, for packing
Christmas stockings full of nice little things
Little things
Like your naughty eyes
You'd consider bringing me a breakfast tray
But there's a price
Little things
Like that happy noise
As a brand new day is dawning
On this lovely Christmas morning
It's our children playing with their new toys
Little moments of happiness and of bliss
Does it ever get better than this?
Oh, what joy Santa brings
Thanks, old friend, for packing
Christmas stockings full of nice little things
Thank you, dear old friend, for packing
Christmas stockings full of nice little things
Little things
Like the precious jewels on rings
Or a music box that will fit in socks
Tiny elves with wings
Not as big as queens and their kings
If you sing along, it could be a song
That my grandma sings
No: gli ABBA hanno fatto una canzone di Natale.
