This article fails notability and is filled with false information. It was not a single, it was a B-side. The sources on the page that claim it charted in four European countries are false (each source says the title has been deleted), and the first source (abbaomnibus.net) clearly states it was only a B-side track and not a single. Furthermore, a previous version of this article was created and subsequently deleted back in 2009 [1]. This current version was created in 2014 by a user who has since been blocked for sockpupptry.

- Redirect to "The Day Before You Came". The reason why the links to the four chart sites don't find anything is because the links are incorrectly formatted: however, a proper search for the song on the Hung Medien sites brings up a note that the labelling of the song as an A-side is a pressing error, so Kookoo Star is correct that this was only ever a B-side. However, it's one of ABBA's better-known B-sides – I think there is a good chance people will search for the song on Wikipedia, and I would not be surprised if one of Carl Magnus Palm's biographies of the band discusses the song and contains information that could be used to support the article. So perhaps the best solution would be to redirect to the single for which it was the B-side and add a line or two about the song to that article. Richard3120 (talk) 15:36, 13 June 2016 (UTC)
