At the end on ABBA Forum we had polls on single choices from each album. Now I'd like to see 4 single choices from this album on this forum and I want as many people to get involved. My rules for this poll are: 1) You must include B-sides. 2) You may aswell choose only 2 or 3 choices. 3) You can include cover art. 4) You can choose bonus tracks which aren't included on the poll. 5) Alan, try and get involved - this is just for fun.  Let The Polls Begin!!! Every song from this debut album was released within territories around the world except for Disillusion and I Saw It In The Mirror. The masterpiece Ring Ring was the only single released in the UK. |

Pulling four singles off an album, with all material coming from same said album, is a rip-off and an outrage! I'm only going to create two for each album. For Ring Ring:
Another Town, Another Train b/w He Is Your Brother
Nina, Pretty Ballerina b/w Disillusion

^^I have to agree, 2 singles are enough from this album, RR being an obvious choice and PNL, which I believe was a release in some areas anyhow.
Both are on the catchy commercial side, but alas it was all to early especially here in the UK for them to be big hits.
Ultimately RR was the only real choice...

I just want to make a few comments about my single choices for each ABBA studio album, I have decided to opt for three out of four. Maybe I am a little biased as to which songs I particularly like but is it so wrong. (Call it a sort of "wishlist" choice.) I am gutted that I have omitted " My Love My Life" as another possible single contender for "Arrival" but then I did whittle my choices to three but that doesn't stop me from loving that particular song. I know I am going to cause some consternation amongst us fans but each to his/her own.

Also, when I was compiling my single choices yesterday, I criminally overlooked another three gems from ABBA's catalogue which could have been contenders as singles picked by me. "As Good As New", "One Man One Woman" and "Slipping Through My Fingers" fell by the wayside and I could have kicked myself for omitting these but I had decided to choose three single releases instead of four. So I can't be greedy !

It is indeed a beautiful song with an ethereal ambience about it.
