2012-04 -23 Release of The Visitors Deluxe Edition, including the demo medley ‘From A Twinkling Star To A Passing Angel’, the first previously unreleased ABBA recordings since 1994! http://abbasite.com/articles/news/the-visitors-deluxe-edition-released-in-april!
As the Deluxe Edition of The Visitors was put together, Benny had the idea that it would be interesting to revisit the various recordings of the song and put together a medley. And this he did in October and November of 2011. The nine-minute medley takes us from the very first demo, with vocals by Björn, to a run-through with Benny on electric piano and Frida on lead vocals, similar to the final version. In between are a demo recording by Frida and Benny (on grand piano) with alternate lyrics entitled ‘Another Morning Without You’; a completely different “disco” attempt, played by a full band and with the final lyrics in place; and a ballad interpretation, also with a full band backing, featuring Frida on lead vocals. “It was fun to put this thing together, just to show what the process can be like,” says Benny Andersson. “It’s an interesting observation on how you labour over things before you reach the final result.”

From 'The Complete Recording Sessions' by Carl Magnus Palm 26th May, 1981: Polar Music Studios: Recording 'Another Morning Without You' (a working title of 'An Angel Walked Through My Room', a working tittle of 'An Angel's Passing Through My Room', a working title of 'Like An Angel Passing Through My Room (version 1)'. Benny Andersson (keyboards), Lasse Wellander (guitar), Mike Watson (bass), Ola Brunkert (drums).


Surely the most difficult track on the new album, the ballad 'Like An Angel Passing Through My Room', would be subject to a number of different attemps before the group finally settled on the released version. This first recording featured contributions from both Agnetha and Frida, as well as keyboards, guitar, bass and drums, presumably a far cry from the bare synthesizer and vocals arrangement that was featured on the album.


3rd June, 1981: Polar Music Studios. Recording 'An Angel's Passing Through My Room (working title of 'Like An Angel Passing Through My Room (version 1)'. A drum overdum by Roger Palm


5th June, 1981: Polar Music Studios. Mixxing 'Like An Angel Passing Through My Room (version 1)' Four different miexes of this recording that ultimately would remain unreleased. The first one was named 'flash', the second 'normal', the third 'amazon', and the fourth 'combination'.


23rd October, 1981: Polar Music Studios. Recording 'Twinkle Twinkle' (working title of 'Like An Angel Passing Through My Room, No.2'). Benny Andersson (keyboards), Lasse Wellander (guitar), Rutger Gunnarsson (bass), Ola Brunkert (drums).


Exactly why this remake of 'Like An Angel Passing Through My Room' was named 'Twinkle 'Twinkle' on this day is not known. However, extensive overdubs were made, including vocals, but apparently something was still unsatisfactory about this version, since a third and final version would be recorded a few weeks later. 'I seem to remember that this was an attempt at turning it into a disco track,' says Benny. "It didn't work out, though, because we ended up with a 'Lay All Your Love On Me' sound-alike, It's never any fun to repeat something that you've already done - we always tried to avoid that."


8th November, 1981: Polar Music Studios. Recording 'Like An Angel Passing Through My Room, No.3' (working title of 'Like An Angel Passing Through My Room').


With less that a month to go before the album was due to be released, a final attempt at recording a satisfactory version of 'Like An Angel Passing Through My Room was made. Thus, this day saw the recording of the bare synthesizer-and-vocals only version that was eventually released on the album. The sound of the ticking clock actually came from Benny's mini-moog, and Michael Tretow remembers Benny trying for hours to figure out just how to get the right ticking sound. "I remember the recording of almost every track on the 'The Visitors' album as an uphill struggle, and this was no exception,' says Benny. "When we finally hit on the arrangement with the tick-tock sound and that strange echo on Frida's voice, we thought that we at least had found something that gave the song its own identity.


Frida also vividly remembers the problems with the recording of 'Like An Angel Passing Through My Room', and she is not completely satisfied with her own vocal performances. "It was very difficult to find the right mood, and I remember trying several different ways of singing it before we landed on the final version. It turned out okay, but it's not a favourite." Perhaps Agnetha summed it up best when she said that the track left the listener "waiting for something that never comes." (International ABBA Magazine, April 1982).


10th and 11th November, 1981: Polar Music Studios. Mixing 'Like An Angel Passing Through My Room'. Two mixes made over two days, both of which remain unreleased.


13th November 1981: Polar Music Studios. Mixing 'Like An Angel Passing Through My Room'. This mix was included on the album.


However the biggest surprise is the inclusion of the previously unreleased track, ‘From A Twinkling Star To A Passing Angel’. This track (there are in fact 4 different versions!) was recorded during the sessions for 'The Visitors'. We are proud to say that we have had the uptempo version of the song in our own vaults for years and it is truly a gem! It features clear vocals by Agnetha backed up by Frida. This makes for an interesting sound as the melody later on developped into 'Like an angel passing through my room' which features only Frida. 'Twinkle Twinkle' is perhaps the 'even better version'. For fans: you should keep in mind ' Why did it have to be me' versus 'Happy Hawaii'. This is how these two song compare aswell. The release of unreleased ABBA material on 'The Visitors deluxe' marks the first time since the 'Thank You For The Music' box set in 1994 that ABBA have opened their private vaults to release a previously unreleased track.

This time the 1975 album simply entitled ABBA, featuring classic hits such as ‘Mamma Mia’, ‘SOS’ and ‘I Do, I Do, I Do, I Do, I Do’, will receive the Deluxe treatment.

The first disc in this 2-disc package is a CD, which features the original album plus three bonus tracks, all of which have been remastered especially for this release. The second disc is a DVD, featuring 60 minutes of previously unreleased television performances, including the complete 1976 television special ABBA In Australia – the export version of the famous The Best Of ABBA special, which had higher viewer ratings than the moon landing in Australia. 6 of the 12 songs in the special are performances of tracks from the ABBA album. In addition, there are three songs from the 1975 television special Made In Sweden – For Export, along with two fab performances from the BBC archives: ‘SOS’ on Seaside Special, first broadcast in 1975, and ‘Mamma Mia’ on Top Of The Pops (1976). To round off the DVD there are two vintage television commercials, one for the Australian hits album The Best Of ABBA (along with the other albums released by ABBA in Australia up to that point) and the other for ABBA’s Greatest Hits album.


The package also includes a 24-page booklet featuring an extensive essay on the making of the album, for which ABBA’s Benny Andersson and Björn Ulvaeus have contributed fresh insights and stories.

March:
2013-03 Agnetha's facebook page is online The single release date of 'When You Really Loved Someone',(3:32) written and produced by Jorgen Elofsson. Links to Agnetha's new website a BBC interview with Agnetha about her new album 'A' her twitter account and a VEVO video channel

The album, titled "A",is released on May 10, 2013.

It contains the 10 following songs:
1. The One Who Loves You Now
2. When You Really Loved Someone listen to this song on www.agnetha.com
3. Perfume In the Breeze
4. I Was a Flower
5. I Should’ve Followed You Home
6. Past Forever
7. Dance Your Pain Away
8. Bubble 9. Back On Your Radio
10. I Keep Them On the Floor Beside My Bed

"I Should've Followed You Home" is a duet with Gary Barlow.

"I Keep Them On The Floor Beside My Bed" has been co-written by Agnetha herself at home in the countryside. The thoughtful-sounding "Bubble" aptly expresses Agnetha's attitude towards glamour and the limelight.
"Dance Your Pain Away" is a rousing disco number.
"Back On Your Radio" is crystal clear pop.
"Past Forever" is a piano-based track with its chorus containing something kind of like Agnetha's life motto: "What can't be broken: the kind of love that lasts."

Agnetha spoke about her new album at Stockholm's Grand Hotel. In the accompanying press release, she talks about how she felt when she went into the studio for the first time together with producers Jörgen Elofsson and Peter Nordahl: "The album as such didn't worry me, but my voice really did. I had not sung for such a long time, so I must have thought: What should I do if it's suddenly gone?"


"It was a good friend of mine who got all this going", explains Agnetha. "She called me and told me that Jörgen Elofsson and Peter Nordahl wanted to play a few of their compositions for me. So they came by and played three songs for me, and I just thought: 'For heaven's sake, I just have to join in'. It felt exactly like the right kind of challenge. I asked my daughter: 'What do you think? Should I do it?' and she answered: 'You should think about this thoroughly. Everything could start all over again.' The recording sessions were wonderful, but you have to face that these recordings may have consequences afterwards."
