Hopes were high. New music connected to Abba always excites us, but Agnetha Faltskog\u2019s single \u2013 her first new music for ten years \u2013 is a little underwhelming.<\/p>\n
Not bad, Where Do We Go From Here? is perfectly pleasant; it just falls short of the impossibly high standards set by the Swedish band\u2019s classic hits like Dancing Queen and Waterloo.<\/p>\n
The song, specially written for her by producer Jorgen Elofsson, starts slowly and acoustically, with Agnetha revealing \u2018Outside I\u2019m cold,\u00a0but I\u2019m burning inside.’<\/p>\n
It\u2019s not influenza that troubles her, though, just the timeless pull of love.<\/p>\n
The pop legend quickly hits a summery midtempo groove before reaching the wistfully catchy chorus. \u2018\u2026it feels like I’m drowning,\u2019 she sings.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
\u2018Don\u2019t let me go now, please hold me closer\u2026\u2019<\/p>\n
It\u2019s a well-made number, a definite grower with pleasing synthesisers and vocal distortion.<\/p>\n
It\u2019ll be the background to a thousand beach parties, and should hook her a new generation of fans.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n[ad_2]\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
