[Music] HAPPY NEW YEAR

First Post of the year 2008!

Surely I'm gonna show you the song ''HAPPY NEW YEAR'' performed by ABBA in 1980. Whether you've heard of it or not, I am certain that you would enjoy the terrific New Year atmosphere in this fantastic song.

HAPPY NEW YEAR 2008 folks!

May the new year bring you happiness and prosperity, good health, peace of mind and heart. God bless!



HAPPY NEW YEAR

No more champagne
And the fireworks are through
Here we are, me and you
Feeling lost and feeling blue
It's the end of the party
And the morning seems so grey
So unlike yesterday
Now's the time for us to say...

Happy new year
Happy new year
May we all have a vision now and then
Of a world where every neighbour is a friend
Happy new year
Happy new year
May we all have our hopes, our will to try
If we don't we might as well lay down and die
You and I

Sometimes I see
How the brave new world arrives
And I see how it thrives
In the ashes of our lives
Oh yes, man is a fool
And he thinks he'll be okay
Dragging on, feet of clay
Never knowing he's astray
Keeps on going anyway...

Happy new year
Happy new year
May we all have a vision now and then
Of a world where every neighbour is a friend
Happy new year
Happy new year
May we all have our hopes, our will to try
If we don't we might as well lay down and die
You and I

Seems to me now
That the dreams we had before
Are all dead, nothing more
Than confetti on the floor
It's the end of a decade
In another ten years time
Who can say what we'll find
What lies waiting down the line
In the end of eighty-nine...

Happy new year
Happy new year
May we all have a vision now and then
Of a world where every neighbour is a friend
Happy new year
Happy new year
May we all have our hopes, our will to try
If we don't we might as well lay down and die
You and I....

Released in 1980 on the Super Trouper Album


"ABBA around the piano" version. It's shown on many New Years Eve's in Sweden at midnight.

Enjoy! HAPPY NEW YEAR!


to ashin:

Chi New Year melody is making me sick. So I will never put those freaking Chi New Year-like song on my blog.

Now we should use Lunar New Year instead of Chi New Year by the way.

HAPPY NEW YEAR.
