- This is the 'live' version of ABBA's unreleased Under My Sun which I think is a great song. I've edited out the laughing in the middle bit so the song sounds so much better. This version has a slightly slower tempo than the other one.

Good job on the editing. It makes the song that much more charming.
A very good attempt to make something of this demo. Personally I always prefered it to 'Rubberball Man'. Thanks
I lead my love alone - I don't hide it.
Sometimes I am an open steamy fire that the water can't swell.
Now everything is told - you can't hide it.
Now let your body slowly take you higher, let your dreams be fulfilled.

Chorus:
You're the one, you're the true star under my sun.
Second to none, you're the true star under my sun.
There is no way I will let this moment pass me by.
Listen to me now, set yourself free now.
You're the one, you're the one star under my sun.
---
I lead my love alone - I don't hide it.
Because I am an open steamy fire that the water can't swell.
You're in the danger zone - you can't hide it.
Now let your body slowly take you higher, let your dreams be fulfilled.
Thank you for helping make sense of the lyrics. Until I read this, I thought it started with nonsense syllables (A-leam-A-lam-aloe)
Adam Dawson this song was not recorded in a studio. This song was recorded while they were rehearsing for their live shows in the US back in 1979. There is no studio quality version of this song as it stands. Abba worked further on this song but got only as far as the music as they had no new lyrics other then the made up silly lyrics of rubberball man.
How do we know what was an wasn't recorded in the studio privately? "From A Twinkling Star To A Passing Angel" showed us 6 (six!) full professional demo versions of An Angel Passing Through My Room. Surely they would have recorded other demos as part of creating the final tracks.
"Abba worked further on this song but got only as far as the music as they had no new lyrics other then the made up silly lyrics of rubberball man." Starkreem82 has zero credibility with this remark. The song developed into Under Attack! Any fan could tell you this. It clearly follows the same turn and construct as this song and Rubberball Man.
@@dedpxl dude grow up. We arent talking about what part of this song was used in another track. What we do have is ABBA books and interviews with Benny or Bjorn over the years where its stated there was no studio recording done of Under My Sun. Rubber Ball Man is what they were working on in the studio. They have stated numerous times that they almost always work on the melody first then the lyrics. RubberBall Man does not have proper lyrics just the nonsense ones we all have heard. That is as far as they went with that tune before part of it was used for another track. It was clear they didnt like it and moved on. Under My Sun is like Get On the Carousel. Another song made for a concert but never recorded in the studio.
Seems an early version from: Under attack...
But cool.
nice
Poor quality but you can sort of imagine what the song would be like.
Of course the finished product of this is a track called Under Attack which was a non-album single before Abba broke up.
I wish people would stop saying that 'Under My Sun' is Live when it's not, you can clearly hear that it's recorded in the studio.
Doesn't sound studio quality to me. Others have said it's from rehearsals. The balancing of the different elements doesn't suggest a studio recording. I'm curious how exactly you've come to the conclusion it must be obvious that it's recorded in the studio. Maybe the chorusing at 1:18? Anyway this recording is part of a longer recording where they are indeed doing a rehearsal for a particular concert.
