Amberian Dawn - 'The Day Before You Came' (Abba cover)
I must have left my house at eight,
Because I always do
My train, I'm certain,
Left the station just when it was due
I must have read the morning paper going into town
And having gotten through the editorial,
No doubt I must have frowned
I must have made my desk
Around a quarter after nine
With letters to be read,
And heaps of papers waiting to be signed
I must have gone to lunch
At half past twelve or so
The usual place, the usual bunch
And still on top of this
I'm pretty sure it must have rained
The day before you came
I must have lit my seventh
Cigarette at half past two
And at the time I never
Even noticed I was blue
I must have kept on dragging
Through the business of the day
Without really knowing anything,
I hid a part of me away
At five I must have left,
There's no exception to the rule
A matter of routine, I've done
It ever since I finished school
The train back home again
Undoubtedly I must have read
The evening paper then
Oh yes, I'm sure my life
Was well within its usual frame
The day before you came
Must have opened my front door
At eight o'clock or so
And stopped along the way to buy
Some Chinese food to go
I'm sure I had my dinner
Watching something on TV
There's not, I think,
A single episode of Dallas
That I didn't see
I must have gone to bed around
A quarter after ten
I need a lot of sleep,
And so I like to be in bed by then
I must have read a while
The latest one by Marilyn French
Or something in that style
It's funny, but I had no sense
Of living without aim
The day before you came
And turning out the light
I must have yawned
And cuddled up for yet another night
And rattling on the roof
I must have heard the sound of rain
The day before you came

Οι ABBA πρέπει να είναι από τα πλέον πολυδιασκευασμένα συγκροτήματα από metal μπάντες. Απόλυτα αφιερωμένο στο Σουηδικό pop συγκρότημα θα είναι το νέο δισκογραφικό πόνημα των Amberian Dawn.
Φέρει τον τίτλο "Take a Chance - A Metal Tribute to ABBA", περιέχει ένδεκα διασκευές σε ισάριθμα τραγούδια των ABBA (την απόπειρά τους στο "Lay All Your Love On Me" την είχαμε ακούσει και στο album "Looking for You" που κυκλοφόρησε τον Ιανουάριο του 2020) και κυκλοφόρησε στις αρχές Δεκεμβρίου.
Παρακολουθούμε το lyric video της διασκευής στο τραγούδι "The Day Before You Came", για το οποίο η Φινλαδική μπάντα μας λέει:
Δελτίο τύπου: «Dawn of a new sound - Amberian Dawn shine with a metal tribute to ABBA! Continuing their legacy from the previous album, Looking For You (2020), Amberian Dawn have assembled to follow their passion and take a chance at being the dawn of a new era for the metal genre with Take A Chance - A Metal Tribute to ABBA.
Introducing ABBA-Metal, the band does not shy away from experimenting with genres while still staying true to their metal origins. Earworms combined with characteristic Amberian Dawn elements truly metallicize the ABBA legacy and transform it into a metal experience like never heard before.
With skillfully implemented synthesizers to create vintage sounding keys, guitar riffs and vocalist Capri’s angelic voice, the original lines immerse perfectly with rocking instrumentals. Dashing drums ensure a high-paced experience that expresses their band identity without losing the catchy ABBA-reminiscent keyboards, renowned lyrics and nostalgic feeling of the original.
Including evergreens like “Mamma Mia” and “Super Trouper”, Amberian Dawn enchants with a variety of tracks. Representing a wide array of ABBA songs from high energy to moving metal ballads like “Like An Angel Walking Through My Room”, the band delivers astounding ABBA-Metal to a broad audience. So Take A Chance on Amberian Dawn’s new album and get lost anew in the glorious new metal world of ABBA.»

«This song is my absolute favourite track on the album. It's a very dramatic and sad song. The feeling and the atmosphere is very Amberian Dawn- like with all the fullness and emotion in the sound. Capri does a perfect job with her singing, once again.»
