People Need LoveABBA

Released: June 1, 1972

Songwriter: Björn Ulvaeus Benny Andersson

Producer: Björn Ulvaeus Benny Andersson

[Chorus: Björn, Benny, Agnetha & Frida]
People need hope, people need loving
People need trust from a fellow man
People need love to make a good living
People need faith in a helping hand

[Verse 1: Björn & Benny and Agnetha & Frida]
Man has always wanted a woman by his side to keep him company
Women always knew that it takes a man to get matrimonial harmony
Everybody knows that a man who's feeling down wants some female sympathy
Gotta have love to carry on living
Gotta have love till eternity

[Chorus: Björn, Benny, Agnetha & Frida]
People need hope, people need loving
People need trust from a fellow man
People need love to make a good living
People need faith in a helping hand

[Post-Chorus: Björn, Benny, Agnetha & Frida]
La la la la, la la la la-la
La la la la la la la-la la la
La la la la, la la la la-la
La la la la la la la-la la la

[Verse 2: Björn & Benny and Agnetha & Frida]
Flowers in a desert need a drop of rain like a woman needs her man
If a man's in love and his woman wants the moon then he'll take it down if he can
Somebody who loves you and somebody who cares, isn't that what you call a friend?
Gotta have love to carry on living
Isn't it easy to understand?

[Chorus: Björn, Benny, Agnetha & Frida]
People need hope, people need loving
People need trust from a fellow man
People need love to make a good living
People need faith in a helping hand

[Post-Chorus: Björn, Benny, Agnetha & Frida]
La la la la, la la la la-la
(People need loving, yeah)
La la la la la la la-la la la
(People need love)
La la la la, la la la la-la
(People need loving, yeah)
La la la la la la la-la la la

[Chorus: Björn, Benny, Agnetha & Frida]
People need hope, people need loving
(People need loving, yeah)
People need trust from a fellow man
(People need love)
People need love to make a good living
(People need loving, yeah)
People need faith in a helping hand

[Post-Chorus: Björn, Benny, Agnetha & Frida]
La la la la, la la la la-la
(People need loving, yeah)
La la la la la la la-la la la
(People need loving, yeah)
La la la la, la la la la-la
(People need loving, yeah)
La la la la la la la-la la la

[Outro: Björn, Benny, Agnetha & Frida]
La la la la, la la la la-la
La la la la la la la-la la la
La la la la, la la la la-la
La la la la la la la-la la la
La la la la, la la la la-la
La la la la la la la-la la la

ABBA

ABBA are one of the greatest pop outfits in history. Their blend of lush orchestrations and light, bouncy europop was both unique and commercially appealing, taking much of the world by storm.

The band name is a member-centric acronym – Agnetha Fältskog, Björn Ulvaeus, Benny Andersson, and Anni-Frid Lyngstad.

Their meteoric rise was sparked by their famed Eurovision performance of original song “Waterloo”, which caused them to win the 1974 competition in Sweden.
