## Lyrics

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

Waterloo, I was defeated, you won the war

Waterloo, promise to love you forevermore

Waterloo, couldn't escape if I wanted to

Waterloo, knowing my fate is to be with you

Wa-Wa-Wa-Wa-Waterloo

Finally facing my Waterloo

My, my - I tried to hold you back, but you were stronger

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

Waterloo, I was defeated, you won the war

Waterloo, promise to love you forevermore

Waterloo, couldn't escape if I wanted to

Waterloo, knowing my fate is to be with you

Wa-Wa-Wa-Wa-Waterloo

Finally facing my Waterloo

So how could I ever refuse?

I feel like I win when I lose

Waterloo, couldn't escape if I wanted to

Waterloo, knowing my fate is to be with you

Wa-Wa-Wa-Wa-Waterloo

Finally facing my Waterloo

Woo, Waterloo, knowing my fate is to be with you

Wa-Wa-Wa-Wa-Waterloo

Finally facing my Waterloo

Woo, Waterloo, knowing my fate is to be with you

Knowing Me, Knowing You

## Lyrics

No more carefree laughter

Silence ever after

Walking through an empty house

Tears in my eyes

This is where the story ends

This is goodbye

Knowing me, knowing you (a-ha)

There is nothing we can do

Knowing me, knowing you (a-ha)

We just have to face it

This time we're through

Breaking up is never easy, I know

But I have to go

Knowing me, knowing you

It's the best I can do

Memories, good days, bad days

They'll be with me always

In these old familiar rooms

Children would play

Now there's only emptiness

Nothing to say

Knowing me, knowing you (a-ha)

There is nothing we can do

Knowing me, knowing you (a-ha)

We just have to face it

This time we're through

Breaking up is never easy, I know

But I have to go

Knowing me, knowing you

It's the best I can do

Knowing me, knowing you (a-ha)

There is nothing we can do

Knowing me, knowing you (a-ha)

We just have to face it

This time we're through

Breaking up is never easy, I know

But I have to go

Knowing me, knowing you

It's the best I can do
Lovelight

Lovelight Promotional Single

**Lovelight** is a song written by Björn Ulvaeus and Benny Andersson as the B-side for ABBA's 1979 single Chiquitita. It was not initially released on the Voulez-Vous album, but was included as a bonus track in subsequent CD releases.

## Lyrics

I've always hated my room, it's so gloomy and dreary
Always the dark, for the windows just face the back yard
So I can't understand how it's happened, how everything's changing
This old dirty ceiling seems a little whiter
When you walked into the room it all got so much brighter

You must have a lovelight
Everything around you is lovelight
And I can feel your love anywhere (shining)
Maybe even when you're not there (shining)
The lovelight
Everything around you is lovelight
You're shining like a star in the night (shining)
I won't let you out of my sight (shining)
I don't want to lose you, I don't want to lose your lovelight

How I remember the first time we went to movie
We had decided to meet on the corner downtown
And I waited there when you came up from behind and you kissed me
And the traffic seemed to get a little lighter
When you came into my life it all got so much brighter

You must have a lovelight
Everything around you is lovelight
And I can feel your love anywhere (shining)
Maybe even when you're not there (shining)
The lovelight
Everything around you is lovelight
You're shining like a star in the night (shining)
I won't let you out of my sight (shining)
I don't want to lose you, I don't want to lose your lovelight

And I feel so good
And I feel so right
And I know that you must have a lovelight

You've got lovelight
And I can feel your love anywhere
Maybe even when you're not there
You've got lovelight
Everything around you is lovelight
You're shining like a star in the night (shining)
I won't let you out of my sight (shining)
I don't want to lose you, I don't want to lose your lovelight
Everything about you is right
Let it glow and let it be bright
I don't want to lose your lovelight
Shining like a star in the night

Gracias Por La Música

**Gracias Por La Música** is ABBA's first Spanish-language album, released in Spain on April 5 1980 and Latin America on May 10. Gracias Por La Música was originally released due to the unexpected surge in popularity for the group in Latin American countries such as Mexico and Argentina after the release of the Spanish-language versions of Chiquitita and I Have a Dream in 1979. These tracks were both released as singles and went on to become big hits. Encouraged by this success, the band therefore decided to record another eight tracks in Spanish and release a full-length album especially for the Latin American market. The album was also released in Sweden on June 23, and in Japan on July 21 after ABBA played eleven successful concerts earlier in March.

Görel Johnsen

**Görel Johnsen**, later **Görel Hanser**, born 21 June 1949 in Skultorp, just outside Skövde in Sweden, is best known for her work at Polar Music and as ABBA's personal manager.

Johnsen started working at the offices of Stig Anderson’s publishing company Sweden Music and the record company Polar Music in September 1969.

After a while she became Anderson's secretary. A few years into the 1970s she had become a key figure in the organisation and acquired the title of Vice President of Polar Music.

During the ABBA years she handled the contacts with the many labels around the world who released the group’s records. She also became ABBA’s personal manager, dealing with the press and accompanying them on their tours and promotional trips. In the process, she became a personal friend of the individual members as well. In 1980 she married journalist and photographer Anders Hanser, whom she met while he was covering ABBA for a radio series.

After ABBA’s break-up, Johnsen continued working for Sweden Music and Polar for a couple of years. In 1987 she started her own company, Music & Artist Service Görel Hanser. She and her staff are mainly occupied with handling the practical details concerning Benny Andersson’s work, including the Andersson/Ulvaeus musicals. On behalf of Björn Ulvaeus and Andersson she also handles all the questions concerning ABBA-related business. In April 2011, she represented ABBA at the 25th Anniversary of the Official International ABBA Fan Club in Roosendaal, the Netherlands.

In 2018, Görel received a Swedish Grammis Award for her work with Stikkan Anderson and ABBA over the years.

Does Your Mother Know

**Does Your Mother Know**  is a song written by Björn Ulvaeus and Benny Andersson for ABBA's 1979 album Voulez-Vous.

## Lyrics

You're so hot, teasing me

So you're blue

but I can't take a chance on a chick like you

That'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 searching 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 (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

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

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

Galeon

Ein Galeon wird nicht geboren. Er wird geschaffen. Wenn ein Boot zersplittert und die Crew stirbt, so bleibt ein Teil der Seele im Holz, Metall und Stein Ihrer Galeonsfiguren. Findige Magier nutzen die überbliebene Energie um diese zu reanimieren - ein Galeon wird geschaffen. Ein sehr großer Anteil kommt aus Mortec Navi, dem großen Schiffsfriedhof und wird in Port Aal erweckt.

## Ein Wesen mit... Charakter

Der Geist des Galeons ist vernebelt, er ist die Essenz der Crew, die tatsächlich auf dem Schiff gestorben ist. So ist der Galeon eines Piratenschiffes grundsätzlich anders als der Galeon eines Handelsschiffes. Nach der Erschaffung ist der Galeon ein Suchender - wer er ist, was er ist, wo er hingehört. Sie sind immer noch von der See angezogen, doch ist es ihnen wichtiger auszuloten was ihre Aufgabe in dieser Welt ist. Es gibt schätzungsweise 5000 Galeonen über die ganze Welt verteilt.

## Physik

Der typische Galeon ist 200 bis 230cm hoch und 150 bis 200 Stein schwer, traditionell werden männlich aussehende Galeonsfiguren den Weiblichen bevorzugt - Galeonen sind unabhängig ihres Aussehens geschlechtslos, werden aber vom gemeinen Volk immer entsprechend ihres Äußeren eingeordnet und nehmen diese Identität in der Regel an. Wenige Fälle sind bekannt in denen Galeonen ihre äußere Hülle verändern lassen, was Hämmer, Meißel und viel Geduld erfordert.

Im Zentrum eines jedes Galeon ist eine gläserne, manchmal kristallene Kugel - das Ask, auch Galeonenherz genannt. Es treibt den Galeon weiter an und sollte es zerbersten vergeht auch der Galeon.

Galeonen können weder essen noch trinken noch schlafen, verfallen dafür aber Nachts in eine starre Meditation aus der sie auch in Gefahrensituationen nicht zu wecken sind.

Galeonen sind fast immer stark und weisen eine gute Konstitution auf, dafür ist Ihr Geschick eher eingeschränkt. Junge Galeonen besitzen nahezu nie eine gute Intuition, da sie sich erst selbst finden müssen.

Ring Ring (album)

**Ring Ring** is the debut studio album by ABBA, originally credited to Björn Benny & Agnetha Frida. It was released by Polar Music in a limited number of territories including Scandinavia, Germany, Australia, South Africa and Mexico on March 26 1973. The album topped the Belgian charts and was a big success in the Netherlands, Norway and South Africa.

The album was re-released in Australasia in 1975, but was not released in the United Kingdom until 1992 and and in the United States until 1995.

## Overview

When the first song from the album, People Need Love was recorded in the spring of 1972, the group was just one of many projects the four members were involved in. Only after the title track, Ring Ring became a hit, did the four decide to go on working together as a permanent group. The original 1973 Polar version of the album opens with Ring Ring (Bara du slog en signal), the Swedish version of the track, and places the English-language version as track four on side two.

The track She's My Kind of Girl, included on the international editions, is in fact a song by Björn & Benny which dates back to 1969, which was a hit in Japan, and had also been included on the B-side of the English version of the Ring Ring single in Scandinavia. *Ring Ring* also features a song co-written by Agnetha Fältskog. Although she had composed much of her Swedish solo output, the song Disillusion, for which she wrote the music, is the only song released on an ABBA album to feature a songwriting contribution from her.

*Ring Ring* was first released on CD in Sweden in 1988; a West German CD release followed in 1990 (later released internationally). The album has been reissued in digitally remastered form three times; first in 1997, then in 2001 and again in 2005 as part of *The Complete Studio Recordings* box set.

The song was written by actor and comedian Hans Alfredson and jazz musician and pianist Gunnar Svensson. It was produced and arranged by Rutger Gunnarsson, engineered by Lennart Östlund and recorded at Polar Studios in Stockholm, Sweden.

### The single

It's So Nice to Be Rich was released as a single in Sweden in December 1983 and it reached number 8 on the Swedish singles chart in February 1984. It was the only Agnetha Fältskog single to chart in Sweden in 1984. The B-side P & B was also featured in the movie.

### Alternative version

The version of It's So Nice To Be Rich included on Agnetha's compilation album That's Me in 1998 is a previously unreleased edit in mono, sourced from the movie P & B, as the stereo master tape seems to be lost forever so a vinyl rip of the single was used for the 2005 remaster of Wrap Your Arms Around Me.

## Lyrics & video

*It's so nice to be rich, rich, rich, rich...*

Young, smart, handsome, and rich, rich, rich, rich...

To dress up in the mink again

And swim in the pink champagne

Oh how I loathe old age, stupidity, and hunger

I prefer to be full, cleverer, and younger

Oh you old dumb bum in the ditch, snitch, snitch...

And get rich, rich, rich, rich...

Get rich, rich, rich, rich...

It's so nice to be rich, rich, rich, rich...

Young, smart, handsome, and rich, rich, rich, rich...

To dress up in the mink again

And swim in the pink champagne

Oh how I loathe old age, stupidity, and hunger

I prefer to be full, cleverer, and younger

Oh you old dumb bum in the ditch, snitch, snitch...

And get rich, rich, rich, rich...

Get rich, rich, rich, rich...

Mmm, get rich, rich, rich, rich...

## Lyrics & official audio

* Translation

Du sprattlar i magen, och vips så är du här
Sen jollrar och du skriker, till glädje och besvär
Du snubblar och ramlar, och slår dig gul och blå
Och innan nån vet ordet av, så har du lärt dig gå

Du börjar skolan, kanske får problem, en vacker dag?
Vi löser dom tillsammans du och jag!

Så vem du än är, så välkommen till världen
Jag ska va med vart du än ställer färden
Många långa vägar ska du gå
Och många år av törnar ska du få
Men ändå vem du än är, så välkommen till livet
Du ska få se när du tar första klivet
Att du väntar många stora äventyr
När din första morgon gryr

Du står framför spegeln, vad du har blivit lång
Och tänk på vissa ställen, är klänningen för trång
Sen träffar du honom, och plötsligt är du kär
Det bara allra första kärleken, som känns sådär

Så står du här en dag, och säger mor, jag ska ha barn
Då känner du på samma sätt som jag

Att vem du än är, så välkommen till världen
Jag ska va med vart du än ställer färden
Många långa vägar ska du gå
Och många år av törnar ska du få
Men ändå vem du än är, så välkommen till livet
Du ska få se när du tar första klivet
Att du väntar många stora äventyr
När din första morgon gryr

La la la
Men ändå vem du än är, så välkommen till livet
Du ska få se när du tar första klivet
Att du väntar många stora äventyr
När din första morgon gryr

People everywhere
A sense of expectation hanging in the air
Giving out a spark
Across the room, your eyes are glowing in the dark

And here we go again, we know the start, we know the end
Masters of the scene
We've done it all before and now we're back to get some more
You know what I mean

Voulez-vous *(Ah-ha)*
Take it now or leave it *(Ah-ha)*
Now is all we get *(Ah-ha)*
Nothing promised, no regrets *(Ah-ha)*

Ain't no big decision *(Ah-ha)*
You know what to do *(Ah-ha)*
La question c'est "Voulez-vous?"
Voulez-vous

I know what you think
"The girl means business, so I'll offer her a drink"
Looking mighty proud
I see you leave your table, pushing through the crowd

I'm really glad you came, you know the rules, you know the game
Master of the scene
We've done it all before and now we're back to get some more
You know what I mean

Voulez-vous *(Ah-ha)*
Take it now or leave it *(Ah-ha)*
Now is all we get *(Ah-ha)*
Nothing promised, no regrets

Official International ABBA Fan Club

The **Official International ABBA Fan Club**, originally founded in 1986 by Anita Notenboom and Helga van de Kar as **The Agnetha Benny Björn Frida Fan Club**, is a fan club centred around ABBA which releases magazines and organises the annual International ABBA Weekend.

From the beginning, the Fan Club produced an ABBA magazine, initially using a regular typewriter, scissors and glue to assemble the pictures and text on the black and white pages. Today, it is a professional magazine that comes in full colour with glossy pages and, over the years, numerous interesting stories and interviews have been published. The magazine is included in the Fan Club membership and is sent out four times a year with all the latest news, flashbacks, in-depth stories, a competition and exclusive photos, and there is an annual gift for all members.

Almost from the very start, the Fan Club started to organize annual meetings for ABBA fans. Today, the International ABBA Weekend is the world’s largest and greatest ABBA party. In April every year, hundreds of fans gather in Roosendaal, the Netherlands. The programme includes an extensive record and memorabilia fair, a disco, interviews, video shows and sometimes a performance. The exhibitions have included original stage clothes, rare photos, ABBA memorabilia and much more. ABBA-related guests have graced their events and they have performed and/or talked about their work with ABBA, including Görel Hanser, Janne Schaffer, Ulf Andersson, Ingmarie Halling, Owe Sandström, Nanne Grönvall, Benny’s son Ludvig with his band and many more.

In 2016, the International Official ABBA Fan Club celebrated its 30th anniversary in Stockholm with a special celebration at ABBA The Museum where Benny paid a surprise visit and played the piano.

Fan club members also get invitations to attend special events such as opening nights of ABBA-related musicals. All Fan Club members were invited to exclusive previews of ABBAworld and ABBA The Museum.

Gimme! Gimme! Gimme! (A Man After Midnight)

* Original
* Spanish version

"**Gimme! Gimme! Gimme! (A Man After Midnight)**" is a song by Swedish band ABBA. It was recorded in August 1979 in order to help promote their North American and European tour of that year, and was released on ABBA's grest hits album *Greatest Hits Vol. 2* as the brand new track.

## Lyrics

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 my window
As I look around the room
And it makes me so depressed to see the gloom

Is there a man out there?
Someone to hear my prayer

Gimme, gimme, gimme a man after midnight
Won't somebody help me chase the 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 a 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

Is there a man out there?
Someone to hear my prayer

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

Is there a man out there?
Someone to hear my prayer

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