To our complete surprise
Eve and I were asked to participate
In a music video
We were asked to walk
Hand in hand
As if we were lovers
In the background
Whilst Stephen Bury
Sang lyrically
About the streets of Valencia
Our reward was a recording
Of his greatest hits (volumes one and two)
And one of his famous purple shirts
This amused me as my father
Had once appeared in an ABBA video
I say appeared but that is not completely correct
As he was driving his car down a hill
On a cold frosty morning
Whilst Agnetha Fältskog was filming
On an icy railway platform nearby
He was not even aware at the time
What was actually happening
And was only told later by friends
Why a film crew had found a near deserted station
In the suburbs of Stockholm so deeply interesting
Whenever I see this video his little car
Still drives down the same hill with its lights bright
Without reaching its destination (FKM Electronics)
I asked Eve if any members of her family
Had claims to fame no matter how small
She said that her family although very loving
Were quiet inoffensive and quite predictable
And did not really like going to the Proms
If the television cameras were going to be there
I was taking Eve to the Mestalla Stadium
As she had never seen a Spanish football match
The visitors were the Galician side Celta Vigo
