"On and On and On" is a pop song recorded by Swedish pop group ABBA in 1980 for their ''Super Trouper'' album. It was released as a single in a limited number of countries. == Background == The track, which had working titles "Esses vad det svänger när man spelar jazz" (roughly translated as "God Almighty How it Swings When You're Playing Jazz") and "'Til the Night is Gone", was released as a single in a few countries, namely the United States, Canada, Japan, Argentina, and Australia. The B-side in Australia and Japan was "The Piper", in Argentina and Canada it was "Our Last Summer", and in the USA it was "Lay All Your Love On Me" -- all of which were also taken from the ''Super Trouper'' album. The single peaked at number 9 in Australia, making it the 15th ABBA single to reach the Top 10 in that country. Although the song only managed to reach number 90 on the ''Billboard'' Hot 100 chart in the U.S., its inclusion on a 12-inch single with the songs "Super Trouper" and "Lay All Your Love on Me" merits all three songs as having reached number 1 on the American dance chart in May 1981. An early mix of the song was used in the accompanying music video, but not released on record in stereo until 2011, and it features an extra verse: :"Standing up is scary if you think you're gonna fall / :Like a Humpty-Dumpty 'fraid of falling off your wall / :I say if you ever wanna know what's going on / :Gotta keep on rocking baby, 'till the night is gone..." And for the first time since ABBA made music videos, "On and On and On" music video did not feature any live movement of ABBA. Instead, a photo montage was made from their Las Vegas concert during their 1979 United States tour and tried to (somehow) match the action of the photos with the song. The song is in the Dorian mode. 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「On and On and On」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
