Momentum
This song has not appeared on a Rotation chart, so it has no score and no receipts. The rank history below is the ledger; a score is only published once the momentum run puts it on a chart.
Why it's here
Björn Ulvaeus sings lead here, one of the only times in ABBA's catalogue he takes that role instead of Agnetha Fältskog or Anni-Frid Lyngstad. [1] Ulvaeus wrote the lyrics after meeting a young fan and turning her away because of her age. [2] The instrumental introduction uses a sound Benny Andersson built on a Yamaha GX-1 analogue synthesizer. [3]
In culture
Every place this record has lived. A solid chip states a fact and carries the citation that earns it; a dashed one is a connection somebody drew, and carries their name instead.

City pickups
City charts record their parent country as the market, so these do not add to the market count above. One line per country: how many of its rooms picked the song up, and the best of them.
