The Day Before You Came-ABBA热门评论
1)1981年11月发行第八张专辑《The Visitors》后，ABBA四位成员暂停乐队活动，专注于个人事务；休息一段时间后，1982年8月重返录音室；创作本曲想法是"一个单一的旋律片段，适合在一系列上升和下降的乐句中重复，并进行几个调性变化"，暂定名"Den lidande fågeln(受苦的鸟)"，歌曲带有一种悲伤的曲调。
2)未使用三角钢琴，只有少量的贝司 电吉他或原声吉他。大部分乐器均由Benny演奏，用大量GX-1合成器与Linn鼓机，笛子音效是标志性声音；制作受到"音序器驱动的尖锐哔哔声"的影响，这种异想天开的声音在Gary Numan、The Human League、Soft Cell和Depeche Mode等正片中很流行，ABBA之前从未使用过音序器
3)Agnetha担任主唱，之所以引人注目，是因为Frida没有与Agnetha进行二重唱或和声,而是只提供背景人声。Frida在演唱持续的高音域旋律线时采用了一种"令人着迷的新方法"，这在之前ABBA录音中很少见，从前她通常演唱低音旋律和和声线，而此曲中采用了一种充满颤音的歌剧技巧，努力将其打造为音乐剧的感觉
4)多年后Michael Tretow回忆起Agnetha在昏暗的灯光下演唱的情景：当时的气氛变得悲伤，录音室里的每个人都知道"这是结局"；唱完歌后我们的女主角要摘下耳机，庄严地走进日光中，永不回来"。这首歌以第一人称讲述令人沮丧的一天，这种平凡的叙述方式吸引了听众，变成了现代生活意义的异常深刻的寓言。
5)于1982年10月18日发行，当时ABBA销量正在下滑，尽管本曲在比利时 芬兰 西德 荷兰 挪威 波兰 瑞典和瑞士都进入前五名，并在加拿大成人当代音乐榜上排名第五，但它在英国单曲榜上最高排名第32位，成为他们有史以来最不成功的单曲之一。公众对这首歌的冷淡反应已经让乐队做出了决定，是继续合作还是解散
6)Björn后来反思这首歌的失败时说："如果我们至少让Agnetha唱得更动听一些，我相信人们会更容易接受这首歌。"但他认为，主要原因是乐队"开始脱离流行音乐主流……你只能在有限的几年内成为主流的一部分——这种难以定义的非凡而神秘的力量。”相反他认为他们“正走向更成熟、更神秘、更令人兴奋的方向"
7)这首歌被乐评人描述为“ABBA最黑暗的歌曲"，自《Super Trouper》以来，原声乐器已慢慢被合成器声音所取代，Agnetha声音中真正失落感、弗里达的歌剧表演、冷酷客观的叙述方式、忧郁的表现主义视频和哀怨的合成器混合在一起，就像雨点打在屋顶上一样无处不在,带有一种流行乐中几乎无与伦比的不祥预感。
