Du har gått i mitt blod



Many happy returns today to two of "our kind of ladies" - Miss Petula Clark (79) and Miss Anni-Frid ("Frida") Lyngstad (66), of Abba fame.

On searching for perhaps a duet, or even a meeting, between the two chanteuses I inevitably drew a blank. However, there is a musical connection!

Both ladies (separately) recorded a version of the Little Anthony & the Imperials standard Goin' Out of My Head, Frida's in her native Swedish. So, let us compare and contrast...

  1. Bless you for blogging. Happy birthday Frida (and Pet).

    Here's one of my favourite Frida tracks from her 1975 album 'Frida Ensam' (Frida Alone). http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tPxxHysht54
