"Angeleyes" (also known as "Angel Eyes") [2] is a pop song written and recorded in 1978 by the Swedish group ABBA, and is featured on their sixth studio album, Voulez-Vous. Released as a double A-side with the title track of the album in July 1979, the lyrics and music were composed by Benny Andersson and Björn Ulvaeus.
It was the first ABBA album to be mainly recorded at Polar Studios in Stockholm, and the only ABBA album to include a studio recording made outside Sweden: the instrumental backing track for the title track was partly recorded at Criteria Studios in Miami. Voulez-Vous was first released on CD in 1984.
On 23 April 2012 a Deluxe version of The Visitors was released.

Confessions on a Dance Floor was designed as a remedy, a chart-friendly comeback album led by an Abba-sampling pop steamroller of a single in the form of “Hung Up”. But this is a record ...
The front cover used the same live photo of ABBA as the worldwide release, but the layout and fonts were different. This was only Epic's second picture sleeve for an ABBA single. As of September 2021, "I Have a Dream" is ABBA's 12th-biggest song in the UK, including both physical sales and digital streams. [4]
