Agnetha Faltskog - A Fool Am I



Uploaded by: abbafanglosuk
Video Description:
Cheltenham is the centre of National Hunt Horse Racing in Britain. The National Hunt season starts in September and is geared towards horses qualifying for the 4 day Cheltenham Festival in March, where the Champions of the various events are decided. The blue riband race is the world famous Cheltenham Gold Cup, which decides the best jumping racehorse every year. The prize money for the race is around £500,000. The race is over 3 miles and 2.5 furlongs, with 22 fences to jump.
The Festival attracts around 250,000 visitors over the 4 days. Many of these are Irish punters making their annual pilgrimage. They bring a very lively atmosphere to the town centre pubs in the evenings! Across the country, around £500 million is wagered on the 25 races.
A famous recent Gold Cup winner is Best Mate, who won the event for 3 years in succession from 2002-4. Here is my son David standing next to the statue erected in honour of Best Mate at the racecourse.
Huge sums of money are won and lost by punters every year. The biggest gambler is Irish racehorse owner and multi-millionaire J.P.McManus, who often bets £1 million.
2008 Result: 1st Denman 9/4, 2nd Kauto Star 10/11F (defending champion), 3rd Neptune Collonges 25/1.
The first 3 were all trained by champion trainer Paul Nicholls, a great achievement!
This picture and subject seemed most appropriate to go with this song from Agnetha's comeback album My Colouring Book (2004). The song A Fool Am I (Dimmelo Parlame) was originally recorded by Cilla Black in November 1966 and reached No.13 in the UK charts. Agnetha's comments on this song are: "There are two Cilla Black songs, this and the single (If I Thought You'd Ever Change Your Mind). There are very special arrangements on her songs, a little like the Beatles since George Martin produced her. I got stuck on this one because it's so explosive and dramatic."
Music: F. Carraresi
Lyrics: A. Testa, English lyrics: Peter Callander
This time your story had better be good,
Or I may leave you like I know I should,
You say you've missed me while you've been away,
Where'd you go? and who with - that's what I'd like to know,
You have the nerve to run off like you do,
You don't deserve all the love I give you
Fool am I! What a poor little fool am I!
Oh why can't I be strong enough,
Long enough to say that we're through,
Fool am I! Just a poor little fool am I
But I can't get it understood, you're no good
What can I do? I can't stop loving you
Tell me you love me - take me and show me,
Make me forgive you again
(Instrumental)
Fool am I! What a poor little fool am I!
But I can't get it understood, you're no good
What can I do? I can't stop loving you
Oh, tell me - you love me
Take me and show me, make me forgive you again
Fool am I! What a poor little fool am I!
Oh why can't I be strong enough,
Long enough to say that we're through,
Fool am I! Just a poor little fool am I!
But I can't get it understood,
You're no good, what can I do?

Hi Dallas, yes ... ( 7 months ago by abbafanglosuk)
Hi Dallas, yes we're all fools for Aggy, her singing can charm any heart! I think David looks like a young me, but I'm biased! I've seen some US races on tv, and its fairly monotous boring stuff, UK racing is much better. That's right, punter is a racing word for gambler. The Irish seem to indulge in all these dubious pastimes, we get plenty of them over here during the Festival. Today is April 1st, thats All Fools Day here, I'm lying low!

Beautiful song and Agnetha`s singing makes it double beautiful! Thanks~

John, We had a snow storm here the past couple days! (about 8 inches) Not an April Fool either! We almost never have snow this late in the spring in Minnesota. It will be short lived though, as the temps are supposed to go back to the 50's. A year ago last Wednesday it was 81 degrees here. Quite a change this year. I wasn't going to blow it, but I did anyway. Have a nice day my friend!

We've had no snow here at all this winter Dallas, it gets milder every year. Last Summer in July/August though we had huge floods that lasted a month. I guess everywhere's getting affected by all this climate change.
Hi Laura, yes this ... ( 7 months ago by abbafanglosuk)
Hi Laura, yes this song has very meaningful lyrics that are superbly delivered by Agnetha. Cilla Black was unbeatable at these big powerful ballads back in the 60's!
Hi Fiona, yep ... ( 7 months ago by abbafanglosuk)
Hi Fiona, yep that's David. He's 22 now and doing ok, as he can afford a season ticket for Cheltenham Races. But he still lives at home, maybe that helps! Actually that's a life size statue at the Racecourse of triple Gold Cup winner Best Mate in the picture. And the rolling Cotswold Hills are in the background. This is a great area to live!

Hope your visit to your mum went ok Fiona. I'm glad that she's liking these vids I've been doing! Aggies's medicine does everyone good!

Wow! Yet another stunning and beautiful song from sweet Aggy! She never ceases to amaze me or appeal to my romantic spirit that lives waaay deep down inside me...somewhere! Thanks, John!
Loved this song ... ( 7 months ago by Pinupip)
Loved this song when Cilla Black had another huge with it in the 60s and was thrilled when Agentha covered it. Agnetha is one of the greatest female vocalists ever!!!
Hi Max, yes seems ... ( 7 months ago by abbafanglosuk)
Hi Max, yes seems that Aggy can do virtually any singing style. She's switched from the sweet voiced up-tempo songs she did in the 80's to her powerful interpretation of these classic 60's ballads on MCB perfectly, despite 17 years abscence from recording!
You're speaking to ... ( 7 months ago by abbafanglosuk)
You're speaking to the Agnetha Faltskog fan club here! I believe she's the finest female singer there will ever be. Her vocal range and quality of singing has been outstanding over nearly 40 years! That's before we consider her superb song writing abilities and amazing beauty! I loved Cilla's power ballads like Anyone Who Had A Heart, she was certainly the best UK female singer in the 60's.

Hi Rustie, good on you - its a brilliant album, I'm gradually working through that one first. There's plenty more albums to come after that, hope you've got room! I can feel birthday greetings swamping here on Saturday, she's very popular! She's certainly packed a lot of wonderful songs into those 58 years, and still looks pretty good!

Thanks dear Matilda, I appreciate you also, you're very good friend. David's gone off to Aintree this weekend to watch the Grand National. I'm stuck at home! Hope he sends me a tip. Agnetha delivers this powerful song brilliantly, her vocal range is outstanding! Take care and hugs too Matilda, let me know when you do some more vids.
