I really appreciate ABBA and agree that their music will always be remembered. The reason I write here is to ask PLEASE somebody help me to find the words for the song '"Money, Money, Money" --the cover version in "Funky ABBA" project by Nils Landgren. I was asked to provide the words by my friends--jazz musicians, but as a language learner I understand only 70% of the recitative. I will be very grateful. Hello!

I was (and still am) an avid ABBA fan and was lucky enough to see them in concert 29yrs ago. It never ceases to amaze me when the general consensus of opinion states that Lennon and McCartney were the greatest songwriters of this century. O.K. there were a couple of decent songs but in the main,the're lyrics were rubbish and never made any sense. It doesn't take much up top to write i.e. "She loves you,yeah,yeah,yeah," and similar. Considering English wasn't even Bjorn and Benny's first language,almost ALL of their songs told a story and I would rate them in the league of the greatest composers up there with Bach,Mozart etc. if you get my meaning. Paul McCartney recently released a song using a mandelin,the lyrics of which my 9yr old could have easily strung together. ABBA will NEVER be forgotten and their music will continue to be enjoyed long after we've shuffled off this mortal coil!!! Hi!

How could I have forgotten those two? Thanks for reminding me. For those who don't know, 'Belle' and 'Time' were both set to the tune of 'Arrival', from the French and English versions of the musical <em>ABBAcadabra</em>, which set new lyrics to ABBA songs and a storyline that featured famous fairytale characters. Frida duetted with Daniel Balavoine on the French cast recording LP and with B.A. Robertson on the English version single, both in 1983. Both songs were also performed on television.
