Absolutely, Sir!

At least two of my friends had boyfriends like that! Horrible. :shock:

No, I don't find anything "stalker-like" in that song. It is more like a frustrated lover spitting out his boredom.

There's another ABBA song "Crazy World" that someone said was about a gay relationship. I read the lyrics a few times but could not find any hints in that song about anything gay, except if the unexpected brother Joe had a secret relationship with the storyteller (the I).

Quite a lot of ABBA songs have simple lyrics. The complicated interpretations come from fans who read into lyrics something that there is not or wasn't intentionally meant to be. I suppose any song could be interpreted in any way you like.

To me "Every Breath You Take" is a real stalker song.

But, just so we do stay on topic, exactly what is this ex-girlfriend "watching out" for? To me, it sounds just a wee bit ominous...

It feels so good to be back with my peeps...

Sir Scott has returned from his quest for the Holy Moose droppings, bringing a little friendly advice...moose bytes kan hurt, and be pretty nasty, too. I remain Lord of the Smurfs, Thor the Berserker, Slayer of the Ten Thousand Tse-tse Flies, lover of ABBA, Agnetha, Anni-Frid, Helen and Arrival.

[quote="SirSmurfalotster"]Okej...so on "Waterloo", Björn sang "Watch Out". Does anyone agree that he sounds just a bit stalker-like? Almost [warning: don't read this name if you are a true Agnetha fan...it may drive you into a rage] "gvdg"-like... [for those of you who don't know me, I refuse to capitalize or type this person's full name out...] Anyway, just wanted to bounce that off of you guys... moving right along...

Sir Smurfälötster, listening to the divi

I have listerned to the lyrics, I suppose it is the way we all view them all differently.

I also thought crazy world was about a guy thinking another man had moved in with his girlfriend, only to find out it was her brother, Well that is the way I see the song anyway.

I think "crazy World" is about a guy who is stupid enough to believe his girlfriend when she claims the man leaving her house early in the morning is her brother.

Shouldn't really mock the afflicted. Some mental health issues patently going on there so he needs help. Still, no one (least of all our blonde goddess) needs the hassle, do they?

Enough said.

It is nice to treat him as a non-existant. But at the same time it might be better post something about the Stalker every once in a while, so that if he ever does frequent any ABBA site he will see that people have not forgotten about him and will be watching him. That might help as a deterent.

I think Cronus is bloody right.
