I read somewhere w here you are

the proud owner of an award-

- which declares you as the lady

with the sexiest bottom.

Is that true?

How can I answer that?

I don't know.

I haven't seen it!

Thank you ABBA. Thank you

ladies and gentlemen of television.

Excuse me.

Do you know where ABBA are?

- I think they've left.

- They've left... They've gone?

We want ABBA! We want ABBA!

We want ABBA! We want ABBA!

Have you filmed the umbrellas

out there? It's a fantastic sight.

Agnetha, I have...

...four kilos of make-up.

- Is the make-up artist here?

- Where could she be...?

- She'll come if you ask her.

Don't go out

and get your hair wet, okay?

We want ABBA! We want ABBA!

Because the only thing I'm worried

about is that the power just stops.

The opening?

Just walk out there.

I don't think there's much we can do,

really, with the wind and the rains...

There's not a lot we can do.

We want ABBA!

Ten minutes

to the show of a lifetime!

The city is a nightmare,

a horrible dream

Some of us will dream it forever

Look around the corner

and try not to scream

It's me

I am behind you,

I always find you,

I am the tiger

People who fear me

never go near me,

I am the tiger

Yellow eyes are glowing

like the neon lights

Yellow eyes,

the spotlights of the city nights

I am behind you,

I always find you,

I am the tiger

People who fear me

never go near me,

I am the tiger

The city is a prison,

you never escape

You're forever trapped in the alleys

Look into the shadows

and you'll see the shape

Of me

I am behind you,

I'll always find you,

I am the tiger

People who fear me

never go near me,

I am the tiger

Yellow eyes are glowing

like the neon lights

Yellow eyes,

the spotlights of the city nights

I am behind you,

I'll always find you,

I am the tiger

And if I meet you,

what if I eat you,

I am the tiger, tiger, tiger!

Thank you!

All right. All right.

- Can I see your press card, please?

- I haven't got my card on me.

I'm sorry, but I can't let you in

if you haven't got a card. Okay.

But I'm a radio announcer.

I've got to get an interview with them.

There's nothing I can do. If you

haven't got a card, you can't get in.

- I'll buy a ticket. How much are they?

- Sold right out.

I haven't got one left.

I'm very sorry.

Hello, Sydney!

Very glad to see you!

I'll tell you one thing:

You make us forget the rain.

I just hope that we

can make you forget it, too!

Where are those happy days,

they seem so hard to find

I tried to reach for you,

but you have closed your mind

Whatever happened to our love

I wish I understood

It used to be so nice,

it used to be so good

So when you're near me,

darling can't you hear me
