Famously sampled by Madonna in "Hung Up", this Eurodisco track was a standalone single released in 1979 to promote their worldwide tour. Musically, it fits very well with the Voulez-Vous album released earlier that year. It was another huge international hit for them, although it did not chart in the US.
Here is a live version:

Love it! I grew up with an A-Teens CD or two. No shame! So I know their covers better than the originals. Recently listened to this song (forget why, but it was something I saw on Pulse that made me) and loved both versions! Never knew Madonna sampled it haha.

Love this! ABBA Gold was one of the first CDs I bought when I was younger. This always stood out for me, along with "The Winner Takes It All." Gorgeous production.

I've never been an ABBA fan, but I LOVE this song.
Cher's latest single is a cover of this.

I like it. It was played in an optional segment a couple years ago on American Top 40, the 70s.
