Today, Bee asks for A Love Song from Scandinavia

Gotta be ABBA!

After they won the Eurovision Sing Contest in 1974 with Waterloo, pop music suddenly woke up and they couldn’t put a foot wrong.

This is my choice today

About pensitivity101

I am a retired number cruncher with a vivid imagination and wacky sense of humour which extends to short stories and poetry. I love to cook and am a bit of a dog whisperer as I get on better with them than people sometimes! In November 2020, we lost our beloved Maggie who adopted us as a 7 week old pup in March 2005. We decided to have a photo put on canvas as we had for her predecessor Barney. We now have three pictures of our fur babies on the wall as we found a snapshot of Kizzy, my GSD when Hubby and I first met so had hers done too. On February 24th 2022 we were blessed to find Maya, a 13 week old GSD pup who has made her own place in our hearts. You can follow our training methods, photos and her growth in my blog posts. From 2014 to 2017 'Home' was a 41 foot narrow boat where we made strong friendships both on and off the water. We were close to nature enjoying swan and duck families for neighbours, and it was a fascinating chapter in our lives. We now reside in a small bungalow on the Lincolnshire coast where we have forged new friendships and interests.

    My dad played Abba a whole lot and I grew to love them.

    Abba were absolutely astronomical world-wide.
    I’m sure Iceland is counted as a Scandinavian country?
    This is Bjork from her 2001 ‘Vespertine’ album.

    I wake up
    And the day feels
    Broken
    I tilt my head
    I’m trying
    To get an angle
    ‘Cause the evenin’
    I’ve always longed for
    It could still happen
    How do I master
    The perfect day?
    Six glasses of water
    Seven phone calls
    If you leave it alone
    It might just happen
    Anyway

    It’s not up to you
    (Oh, it never really was)
    It’s not up to you
    (Oh, it never really was)
    It’s not up to you
    (Well, it never really was)
    It’s not up to you

    If you wake up
    And the day feels
    Ah broken
    Just lean into the crack
    (Just lean into the crack)
    And it will tremble
    Ever so nicely
    Notice
    How it sparkles
    Down there
    I can decide
    What I give
    But it’s not up to me
    What I get given
    Unthinkable surprises
    About to happen
    But what they are

    It’s not up to you
    (Well, it never really was)
    It’s not up to you
    (Oh, it never really was)
    It’s not up to you
    (Oh, it never really was)
    It’s not up to you
    (Oh, me share)
    It’s not up to you
    It’s not up to you
    (Oh, it never really was)
    It’s not up to you
    (Well, it never really was)
    It’s not up to you
    It’s not up to you
    It’s not up to you
    It’s not up to you

    There’s too much
    Clinging
    To peak
    There’s too much
    Pressure

    Written by Bjork

    Very pretty song. For some reason I don’t think I’d heard it before. 🙂
