Song 23 ( ABBA - Our Last Summer )

http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/51EM%2BnR9emL._SL500_AA280_.jpg

This song got stuck in my head today and I decided to pick it. It has incredible dynamics and catchy hooks, which is probably why the song was stuck in my head. ABBA, in this song used a formula that brought them success in previous compositions: using minors in the verses and kicking into majors in the chorus; this can also be heard on their hit S.O.S. The lyrics are very introspective and sentimental; they have to do with a couple spending a summer in Paris, France and the woman is talking to her male friend about that last summer they spent together and how things have changed.

Here is a fan video with the studio version on YouTube.
