For many years, fans had no idea regarding the real meaning of the hit.

The compositions of the ABBA group were popular not only in their homeland, but throughout the world, including in the USSR. Dance songs became instant hits, and only a limited number of musical works achieved the same fame. However, due to ignorance of the language, Soviet fans often misinterpreted the lyrics.

Thus, at the peak of their career, the team presented another hit, Super Trouper. And Soviet enthusiasts decided that it was dedicated to the soldiers of the airborne troops. For many years, fans of the team were sure that the Swedes were paying tribute to the Soviet paratroopers. This version was also confirmed by Soviet DJs who talked regarding it during radio broadcasts.

In fact, the band sang regarding lighting equipment from Super Trouper and did not even mention the military. But fans learned regarding the true meaning of the song only many years later, which disappointed them a lot.
