Today’s song is ABBA’s Eagle, dating from 1977. This was officially the longest track they ever recorded, at 5:51, 1 second longer than The Day Before You Came. While the song wasn’t particularly well-received at the time, it has come to be recognised as one of the band’s most outstanding tracks in terms of lyrics.

I hope you enjoy my version. If it’s your first time on the site, find out more about the 365 Songs project or see all of my October songs here. If you’re looking for more ABBA songs, have a listen to my Tribute to ABBA album or check out this year’s ABBA songs from my archives.
