Geh' Mit Gott
''Geh' mit Gott'' is a compilation album in German by Swedish singer Agnetha Fältskog, released in 1994 by Royal Records. The album contains Fältskog's German singles recorded for Metronome and CBS between 1968 and 1972. It was quickly deleted and is now a collector's item amongst ABBA fans. Presumably, the original master tapes for the German recordings are lost, as the sound on this CD has been transferred from the original singles. The compilation's first release of the German singles was ''Agnetha in Germany'' by Odoriko Music, in 1989. Recording session 'Robinson Crusoe' and 'Sonny Boy' were recorded in 1968 after the first album "Agnetha Fältskog". 'Señor Gonzales' and 'Concerto D'Amore' were recorded in early 1969, before the second album "Agnetha Fältskog Vol. 2". 'Mein schönster Tag' and 'Wie der Wind' are outtakes of that album. 'Tausend Wunder', 'Komm doch zu mir' and 'Ich denk' an dich' are outtakes of "När en vacker tanke blir en sång ''När en vacker tanke ...

Pop Music
Pop music is a genre of popular music that originated in its modern form during the mid-1950s in the United States and the United Kingdom. The terms ''popular music'' and ''pop music'' are often used interchangeably, although the former describes all music that is popular and includes many disparate styles. During the 1950s and 1960s, pop music encompassed rock and roll and the youth-oriented styles it influenced. ''Rock'' and ''pop'' music remained roughly synonymous until the late 1960s, after which ''pop'' became associated with music that was more commercial, ephemeral, and accessible. Although much of the music that appears on record charts is considered to be pop music, the genre is distinguished from chart music. Identifying factors usually include repeated choruses and hooks, short to medium-length songs written in a basic format (often the verse-chorus structure), and rhythms or tempos that can be easily danced to. Much pop music also borrows elements from other styles ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Released on 9 November 1987, the album was produced by Peter Cetera and would be her last for 17 years. Overview Recorded mainly in Los Angeles and Malibu, California, ''I Stand Alone'' was produced by Peter Cetera, the former singer and bass guitar player with American rock band Chicago. He duetted with Fältskog on the track "I Wasn't the One (Who Said Goodbye)". The co-producer of the album was Bruce Gaitsch, with whom Fältskog was in a relationship at the time. Fältskog made a very rare trip on an airplane to Los Angeles to record the album. After it was completed, she did not fly again for years due to her much-publicised fear of flying. She did, however, admit that the flight was worth it. The resulting musical style of the album was very different from the European sounds of Faltskog's previous two albums, and reflected the West Coast ...
