Ace of Base

The man in the moon has a thousand different faces
The man in the moon changes colours each day
He's watching us all
The big and the small
Can he see
Just you and me
Searching for my destiny?
Mercy, mercy
You've gotta have pity on me
Have mercy on me
Mercy, mercy
Wanna be free and happy
Have mercy on me
Do you believe we can travel into the future?
Do you believe there's a man in the sky?
We're making him sad
The good and the bad
Can he see
Just you and me
Searching for my destiny?
Ohh
Mercy, mercy
You've gotta have pity on me
Have mercy on me
Mercy, mercy
Wanna be free and happy
Have mercy on me
I don't wanna be just one in many faces
I want you looking at me
Sit down and take a look
Put me into motion
Give me something to believe
Mmm hmmm mmm
Mmm hmmm mmm
Mercy, mercy
You've gotta have pity on me
Have mercy on me
Mercy, mercy
You've gotta have pity on me
Have mercy on me
Ohhh
Mercy, mercy
You've gotta have pity on me
Have mercy on me, mmm
Oh
Mercy, mercy
You've gotta have pity on me
Have mercy on me

Ace of Base Is a Swedish pop group who scored a string of international hits in the early-to-mid 1990s. They’re best known for their upbeat reggae-tinged dance-pop songs, including “The Sign”, which was the biggest hit of 1994, according to The Billboard US chart.

The group’s core lineup consisted of producers Ulf “Buddha” Ekberg and Jonas “Joker” Berggren, along with singers Malin “Linn” Berggren and Jenny Berggren (the three Berggrens are siblings). In the early ’90s, their debut single “Wheel of Fortune” became a hit in Scandinavia, which led to the group connecting with producer Denniz Pop (who would later spawn the careers Backstreet Boys, Britney Spears, and Max Martin).

After the group’s 1992 debut Happy Nation became an international hit (going on to sell 21 million copies), it was re-released in North America in 1993 as The Sign. Three singles from the album became top five pop hits in the US, including “All That She Wants” (#2), “Don’t Turn Around” (#4), and “The Sign” (#1 for six weeks). The Sign went on to sell over 10 million copies.
