The track was featured on the 1976 compilation album ''Greatest Hits'' in some countries, although in Australia and New Zealand, "Fernando" was included on the group's fourth studio album ''Arrival''. "Fernando" is also featured on the multi-million selling ''Gold: Greatest Hits'' compilation. The song was to become ABBA's best-selling single of all time, with 6,000,000 copies sold in 1976 alone. It is one of less than forty all-time singles to have sold 10 million (or more) physical copies worldwide. ==History== "Fernando" was not originally released as an ABBA song but by Anni-Frid Lyngstad. It was featured on her number 1 Swedish solo album ''Frida ensam'' (1975). The song was composed by Benny Andersson and Björn Ulvaeus and carried the working title of "Tango". Preparations for recording began in August 1975. Originally named "Hernandez", the writers made last-minute changes to the title before recording.〔ABBA fan magazine 1980〕 The suggestion of the name "Fernando" was given by their limousine driver Peter Forbes in Shepperton, England. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Fernando (song)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
