It's an accurate, carefully created piano arrangement of the full song.
PLEASE NOTE:
For better playability, the song has been transposed by a half step from the original (from Gb to F major).
However, the same arrangement is also available in the original key.
"The Winner Takes It All" was the first single from ABBA's 1980 album "Super Trouper", which became the best-selling album of that year in the UK.
The song became a huge international success, and their last top 10 hit in the US before the band broke up in 1982.
It is often assumed that the famous ballad was inspired by the divorce between Björn Ulvaeus (who wrote the song's lyrics) and Agnetha Fältskog (who sang the lead vocals), but Ulvaeus said the song was "the experience of a divorce, but it's fiction. 'Cause one thing I can say is that there wasn't a winner or a loser in our case. A lot of people think it's straight out of reality, but it's not".
In any case, "The Winner Takes It All" is a fantastic ballad, an iconic hit from the early 80s, and it makes for a fantastic piano cover!
