Hello everybody. Today I bring you this ABBA classic, called "Fernando". Some time ago I was asked for this song and today we finally have it. This goes to @ksmith7, with much love.

I also want to announce my complete happiness for the return of ABBA after 40 years of absence on stage. It's a miracle and for all the fans of this Swedish band, it's excellent news. They are not only coming back with their old songs, but also with new material and that's fantastic! They are even building a venue for their presentation. On Thursday they made themselves known with this ABBA Voyage project. There was a virtual performance where the band members wore costumes to record all their movements to take it to personifications of their younger versions. In other words, we saw the band members as if time had never passed, but everything about them is as real as before. Undoubtedly a milestone for musical history and a news that gives another twist to this year 2021. You can search YouTube for the live broadcast that took place on Thursday, September 1st. No doubt you will enjoy it.

So today we celebrate the return of ABBA with their song Fernando. I hope you enjoy it. As always, thanks for your comments, votes, suggestions and compliments. A big hug and long live the new ABBA experience!

Lyric/Letra

Can you hear the drums, Fernando?
I remember long ago another starry night like this
In the firelight, Fernando
You were humming to yourself and softly strumming your guitar
I could hear the distant drums
And sounds of bugle calls were coming from afar

They were closer now, Fernando
Every hour every minute seemed to last eternally
I was so afraid, Fernando
We were young and full of life and none of us prepared to die
And I'm not ashamed to say
The roar of guns and cannons almost made me cry

There was something in the air that night
The stars were bright, Fernando
They were shining there for you and me
For liberty, Fernando
Though I never thought that we could lose
There's no regret
If I had to do the same again
I would, my friend, Fernando
If I had to do the same again
I would, my friend, Fernando

Now we're old and grey, Fernando
And since many years I haven't seen a rifle in your hand
Can you hear the drums, Fernando?
Do you still recall the frightful night we crossed the RioGrande?
I can see it in your eyes
How proud you were to fight for freedom in this land

There was something in the air that night
The stars were bright, Fernando
They were shining there for you and me
For liberty, Fernando
Though I never thought that we could lose
There's no regret
If I had to do the same again
I would, my friend, Fernando

There was something in the air that night
The stars were bright, Fernando
They were shining there for you and me
For liberty, Fernando
Though I never thought that we could lose
There's no regret
If I had to do the same again
I would, my friend, Fernando

Yes, if I had to do the same again
I would, my friend, Fernando

If I had to do the same again
I would, my friend, Fernando

Hola amiga @carminasalazarte,
Wow Impresionante interpretación, debo decir que cualquier género musical te va muy bien, tu voz se adapta y siempre le das ese toque personal que te distingue.

Halagado y Agradecido por la complacencia, jajaja.

Fuerte Abrazo y que sigan los Éxitos.

Gracias ! Estuve pendiente de interpretar esta canción que mencionaste, pero tarde porque me la estaba aprendiendo y bueno tratando de adaptarla con mi voz, porque hay canciones que se me hace difícil interpretarlas más que todo por el tono de voz del cantante.
