I'm aware that this'll get me tarred and feathered but I Still Have Faith In You doesn't do much for me at the moment.

Don't Shut Me Down on the other hand is EXACTLY what I'm looking for.
 
Don’t Shut Me Down. OMG! It is as if they never left. :disco:

I Still Have Faith In You is nice. I think it will grow the more I listen.
 
I hope all that crowd noise isn't on the actual track...
 
ISHFIY is schmaltzy but let's not kid ourselves for a minute that is a big part of the ABBA canon. When the "do-I-have-it-in-me?" bit kicked in I knew I would like it. Also the build-up is SPINE-TINGLING.

Don't Shut Me Down is just PERFECT. They could slot it in at the end of Arrival and it would fit.

I would have found it extremely upsetting if the songs had been terrible - I have been to two of those deranged ABBA TALK events, lest we forget - so I didn't dare to imagine that they might be good in case they weren't

Hence pre-unveiling DOOM AND GLOOM
 
Don't Shut Me Down reminds me of Carola's 'Främling' in parts.

I do wish the voices were a bit higher in the mix on the choruses of I Still Have Faith In You, but I'm guessing it might not have flattered them as much...

I am stunned by the quality of these songs, particularly ‘Don’t Shut Me Down’ - it’s like they never left the studio.
