I have to play this song in a very short musical and I’m the ballerina that DIES at the end of the song. Idek why my drama teacher wanted to make it this dark
i dont wanna be extra so heres a quick and simple POV: ..As you walked out of the stall in the mall, then you suddenly feel a cold blade enter through your back. you're suddenly bleeding from the mouth as you collapse to the floor. your eyes are open and your on the floor helplessly looking at your murderer slowly walk away..
Try to hear ABBA's If It Wasn't For The Nights while walk in a empty, silent and windy street. It will give you the strange feeling that some tragic thing will happen
SO. MUCH. FUN!! I worked at a mall in 89-90, when I was 20, at a bank. my stepsister, 18, worked next door at Orange Julius. It was like a huge high school. We knew all the other young people working at the mall, mainly because they cashed their paychecks at my bank. We'd hang out for HOURS after work. We got deep discounts and free food. I had a big crush on the guy at Z. CAVARICCI. My stepsister dated the guy from Bachrach's. And a lot of other guys. I'd buy condoms at Osco for the other teller I worked with, and pregnancy tests for my stepsister, lol The employees there must have thought that I was very busy and didn't know how to use the condoms lol There was always an old woman asking people to take surveys, and we always did those because you'd get free stuff or a few bucks. We spent all our money at the mall. We even went on our days off, LOL
"only 17" implies that 17 is a young age to be the dancing queen, you've just been crowned and you have many years of reigning as dancing queen left. - stolen, reworded from tumblr
There’s an episode of a tv show called community where they have a zombie apocalypse in their school and the only music that plays is abba music. Very funny episode and a great show in general
@@megastalkergaming1577 I wouldn't say 'scary', per se, but it was a little unnerving (though not in a particularly 'unwelcome' way). This probably requires a little explanation. See, I had only a few weeks prior returned from the Navy. Eight years (two hitches!) of living in confined spaces with a few hundred other guys and the constant din of machinery, flight ops, and other people going about their day will definitely deny you any 'alone' time. Now, here I was, alone in this huge, dimly-lit store (for the night crew, only about a third of the lights were left on), and just this thin, echo-y music playing on the overhead speakers and the soft shush of the HVAC. No conversations. Nobody barking orders. No catapults or turbines or incessant vibration or some guy snoring three feet away. Just comparative quiet and a little music. In society, it's rather unusual for one person to be this isolated; for me, there was a much more profound contrast, because most people don't live in the kind of proximity one has to deal with in the military. As I said it was surreal. Slightly unnerving, but not unwelcome. And it was remarkable how peaceful that can feel, and how much work you can get done when your're not constantly being interrupted by a thousand other silly things. I hope that makes sense.
@@xaenon I can understand that. Personally I would've loved working alone in that partially lit store, at least for a few hours. No noise or constant badgering from customers, free to pick out anything you want without anyone getting there first. I would actually find that surreal lighting rather comforting! Sometimes isolation in a half-dark space could be just what you need to just feel...free!

BiscuitsCED shut up with your TikTok stuff. Leave this gem of a song OUT of a sentence with TikTok. This song was pretty well known, y’all were just late on it.
“Hello? Is someone there? We’re closed.” Said every girl who works in shop in a horror movie. Followed by the power going off.... And dark figure slipping behind her....
why does this make me feel like im the only survivng person in a horror movie and im walking around the empty mall covered in blood with knife in hand while this plays over the intercom because the killer put it on
The fact that it's a food court makes it so much cooler. I wasn't around in the 70s but Zellers had a food court that hadn't changed a bit since the 70s

I can just imagine this part of a horror movie with some kind of serial killer or demonic creature back in the 70s and a group of teens were the main victims. So anyways there is a closed mall and they decide to hide in there to get away from it, but as they venture around the mall, they get picked off one by one until there is one person left. This song starts playing and they are startled at first, then lights start to flicker all around and flashing like a disco night. Then the killer is across the other side of the mall looking straight at the other person. The killer comes and goes with the flicker of the lights and beat of the music. They try to run away into different stores but doors shut and glass breaks around them. Soon the teen finds the exit door and runs towards it seeing that it's slightly open. They run as fast as the can while the lights are still flickering and the music is about over. They make to the door but the song ends and the door slams shut, causing glass to shatter. The lights stop flickering and go off. They come back on in a quick flash and the killer is right behind them and slits their throat. THE END wtf did I write this?

POV: The year is 1976. You’re wearing your new bell bottoms you just bought and your favorite platforms. The mall is about to close in 5 minutes and you’re waiting on your crush Brad on the football team to meet you in the food court. You start to feel discouraged and sad because you think he stood you up. You pick up your milkshake and toss it in the trash all sad you got pretty for nothing. As you’re about to walk home, you see him enter the food court all dressed up in a hurry. You run up to him and he greets you with a warm hug and you two walk away hand in hand as the song fades the further you walk.
Why is this more sad that 99% of the sad songs I listen to POV: You’re a teenager living in 2019 and you start to gain back memories of your past life in the 1970’s. You remember the family, friends, lover you had before you died. Now you think about it and you realize they probably will not recognize you and you won’t be able to connect with them again. Then as time passes, your past lover gets older and older and you watch as they age without you and you can’t do anything about it. Now youre asking yourself “Why did I kill myself?”
@@rihze mostly everyone now has been exposed to all the media that has been! in adverts , films, ads etc so you could only be 8 and would of heard/seen a whole lot of different media from over lots of decades subconsciously, which gives u a weird nostalgia when heard or seen again lol there also is no longer a generation gap
While people see this as something scary, im just imagining the people who sat there in 1979. The way they must of been dressed, what they must of been thinking and where they are now in the present of 2019 while ABBA is playing lol.
this sends chills down my spine. like, im remembering things that never happened to me. i feel like a teenage girl in the 70's. it makes me kinda sad. like someone is trying to kill me or i am trying to kill someone.
pov: The cold pink and white checkered floor sent chills up your spine as you laid there; the starlight shining through the large windows of the mall. Your neon clothes glowed against the purple led lights from the store displays, your eyes glossed over. The clouds from the skylight drifted slowly through the calm Midnight sky. Your favorite song turned on the intercom, as you weakly hummed along. "Dancing queen..." you wheezed, taking you final breaths as you looked at the knife the protruded through your midriff, the murder dancing his way out of the abandoned mall.
This is so beautiful just looking at the pic in the video shows me a beautiful time that I never got to live... man what it would be like to be around in the 70s man... lol bell bottoms, hippies, peace signs, abba, mustangs, vans, long hair, FAR OUT MAN!
So, you're sitting there thinking "How the hell did I get into this?" you look over to your partner, his corpse lays there cold, from a gunshot to the head. When seeing his body, you think "Why did I join the army, only to die here to some Israeli soldiers?" than some men in scarves come in, it's covering their faces. They start to load their weapons. You look up to the sky window, on the ceiling. Then out of nowhere the glass shatters, your platoon is rappeling down, coming to save you. As they're rappelling down, you hear gunshots. The men are dead on the floor. Your platoon unties you, and you get up. You'd feel a feeling of freedom, a feeling you never really felt. Cut to a month later. Your standing outside of your humvee with binoculars, then you go over to a little spot you and your platoon made for scouting, and you look over. You see suspicious trucks, and they're heading your way, suddenly you hear an explosion, your humvee was attacked by an RPG! You run over to the mounted 50 Cal, you start firing at the trucks, and then you see the men who fired the RPG, you start firing at them, as soon as you are firing this song comes to mind, they would fire an RPG at you, you knew this was your death, and your fate is sealed, Suddenly you wake up. Your still in that chair, you were knocked out and had a dream, The men come in again, but this time your platoon doesn't come. They load their guns, and they aim it at you. With your last moments, and last breaths were here. As they aimed the gun at you, this song played...
Pov:Your the last human on earth walking around while listening to this on your phone without airpods or whatever in.Your humming along to it before you wake up with doctors surrounding you.
POV: You are a mall janitor on their first day. It is 8:39 p.m. and there is nobody in the mall except for you and your coworkers. You are cleaning the floors, emptying the deep fryer, and basically normal janitor things. Then this song comes on and startles you and your coworkers. You just continue your job, and the song shuts off. You still keep working. But a voice comes on the intercom. You don’t recognize the voice as your boss’s, and it slightly scares you. The voice on the intercom says, “welcome to Raiser malls, my job right now is to evacuate the mall, we are having a zombie invasion. Please do not panic, for the employees will evacuate the area and mall. Thank you for your cooperation.” You and your coworkers realize there is no one but you in the mall. You have to get yourself out along with some food and waters. You find the closest door without an alarm. You get out, and your coworkers and you are ok. Then you find many car wrecks and fires along the road and street. You try to find a human who hasn’t been infected, and find some people who own a war/disaster bunker. You all get inside and lock the door. The people who own the bunker are scared, and so are you. You stay there for a couple hours and make a plan. The owners go to sleep. The police show up the next morning. The police are making sure you and your friends are ok. you and the owners of the bunker, the police, and the coworkers exit the bunker and find a few people who have been injured. Then you get those people and help them. Everyone is ok, except a person got infected, and taken down. The infected got cured a few days later, and the story ends here.
I remember dated 70s decor in a lot of buildings when I was a kid in the early 90s Lots of browns, whites and wood panelling Also more plant and vegetation
this is like a fragment of a memory, tucked away in your head that only has bits and pieces. The squeak of your shoes on the floor, the texture of the fake wood, lingering feelings and a distant song. No human presence. A lonely place, a forgotten place. For a short while listening to this we can get some glimpses of these lost memories.
pov: you’re stoned out of your mind walking down the candy isle at a walmart headed towards the video game section so you can play the switch demo at 2:46 a.m.
Seems like the start to what might be a really creepy horror movie , you can just imagine the sound fading away and the camera panning around to reveal ...
Imagine:... The three main characters all around the ages of 16 or so just survived an explosion that the unknown villain (for now) caused. They landed in an abandoned shopping mall. The leader of the group coughs and sits up brushing dust off of herself. She looks over and sees her love interest doing the same. She then looks around for her best friend that got tagged along in the mission. Looking over to her left she sees the worst thing imaginable. Her friend is laying there on the ground stiff. Throwing rubble to her side she runs over to her aid. After whispering no several times she cradles her friends head and hugs her tightly knowing that she has indeed died. Then the love interest comes over and hugs the main girl who is now sobbing. All if quiet while this song playing over the stores intercoms while a small sob can also be audible. The end
I was only 3 years old. Just to think that if I could step into that picture, I could go back in time and live my life all over again. 😥 Of course I would have to find out what state this mall was in and take a train or a bus to my state of birth. Lol
It’s the end of the world, your entire family is dead, everyone you know died. You slowly walk to the mall for the one thing you need; The pistol you find behind the counter, this song is playing as you put the loaded gun to your head, listening to the soft song. Squeeze the trigger.
POV: you're walking in your childhood mall that you used to go to that's now abandoned and hearing dancing queen in intercom and dancing to song in the middle of the entire mall.
Pov: Your walking around in a abandoned mall after a murder killed 23 people last year in 1976 and the murder has never been found. Randomly Dancing Queen started to play on the old speakers.
Pov:this song starts to play over the intercom but you remember your the only one alive and you go there and find a phone and then get hit in the back of the head
To be honest. I believe this sadness generates due to the feeling of wanting to go back. Not back to this specific time, but old music and old settings do that. It makes you want to turn back the clock, to times that were better. Not exactly this time, but a time of happiness that you either had stolen from you or you lost in a swirl of either bad events or sadness. You wanna go back, and just enjoy a simple bliss that you either barely remember feeling or the pain of losing it hurts too much.
I miss the mall in the 70s even though I've never experienced it

Now you think about it and you realize they probably will not recognize you and you won’t be able to connect with them again. Then as time passes, your past lover gets older and older and you watch as they age without you and you can’t do anything about it. Now youre asking yourself “Why did I kill myself?”
💔
I’m 13 and I have dreams of me being a soldier looking at a picture of a women, while crying before bleeding to death and this feels mad familiar
@@sp1cynotjevil *cringe*
@@rookeva8688 Agreed
Stop it’s 3am and I’m tooooo fucking high to be thinking about this
Pov: you got lost in the mall and then the mall closed with creepy manaquins in every store..
The Twilight Zone has a great episode on this
Everyone in the comments: sad and depression
Me: I love this song. What a great day
THIS IS SO PERFECT I THINK IM OBSESSED WITH THIS VIDEO
Ahh the seventies
omg ur pfp taste
@@nash57 ik it's fine
Why does this give me this sense of vibe of something I’ve never experience
Because your brain has been exposed to nearly 100 years worth of media
@@harrymonk6 lmao what?
@@rihze mostly everyone now has been exposed to all the media that has been! in adverts , films, ads etc so you could only be 8 and would of heard/seen a whole lot of different media from over lots of decades subconsciously, which gives u a weird nostalgia when heard or seen again lol there also is no longer a generation gap
@@harrymonk6 oh, that's cool to think about.
@@rihze BRUH
While people see this as something scary, im just imagining the people who sat there in 1979. The way they must of been dressed, what they must of been thinking and where they are now in the present of 2019 while ABBA is playing lol.
I was one of those people... damn that was a long time ago!
@Flashy Paws snorting coke worked out well for you I see.
Flashy Paws Ok boomer
Good thought Chilled Llama
If you sit there with your eyes closed it feels like you’re there and someone’s gonna come up and tap you
Griffin Lee true
Omg that’s so scary how true it is
I wonder if he would be a mafia member.
Reminds me of the polar express
mauro bobadilla how so?? :S
Tissue Box I think the scene where they’re stuck in the present shipping place and there is like music playing while it’s empty.

DINGALING DINGALING DINGALING DINGALING DINGALING DINGALING DINGALING

This is giving me Stranger Things vibessss
Welcome to Star Court Mall [currently demolished sadly] :(
I need Frankie Valli's "Grease" but its played in an empty Italian pizzeria
I’m listening to this while I skip lunch in the restroom because I have social anxiety
Brianna please join an organization in your school, sooo much easier to make friends that way
I remember my teen years, I hope things get better for you
Aww hun. I so relate to this. School sucks, but thankfully it won't last forever. I know you can make it 😊
Good one ya boy
OH MY GOD SAME THO
This is like the end of the world
This is actually scary to me and I don’t know why
same it sounds so creepy :(
This is the song they made us remember from our past life. That’s y it’s so nostalgic to all of us
pov:
The cold pink and white checkered floor sent chills up your spine as you laid there; the starlight shining through the large windows of the mall. Your neon clothes glowed against the purple led lights from the store displays, your eyes glossed over. The clouds from the skylight drifted slowly through the calm Midnight sky. Your favorite song turned on the intercom, as you weakly hummed along.
"Dancing queen..." you wheezed, taking you final breaths as you looked at the knife the protruded through your midriff, the murder dancing his way out of the abandoned mall.
This is actually beautifully written! Hauntingly Beautiful I guess. You’re such a good writer 😭❤️
Does this song make anyone think about the people hearing it in that year?
This is so beautiful just looking at the pic in the video shows me a beautiful time that I never got to live... man what it would be like to be around in the 70s man... lol bell bottoms, hippies, peace signs, abba, mustangs, vans, long hair, FAR OUT MAN!
Oz zO you seem what’s the word? Sensitive
So, you're sitting there thinking "How the hell did I get into this?" you look over to your partner, his corpse lays there cold, from a gunshot to the head. When seeing his body, you think "Why did I join the army, only to die here to some Israeli soldiers?" than some men in scarves come in, it's covering their faces. They start to load their weapons. You look up to the sky window, on the ceiling. Then out of nowhere the glass shatters, your platoon is rappeling down, coming to save you. As they're rappelling down, you hear gunshots. The men are dead on the floor. Your platoon unties you, and you get up. You'd feel a feeling of freedom, a feeling you never really felt. Cut to a month later. Your standing outside of your humvee with binoculars, then you go over to a little spot you and your platoon made for scouting, and you look over. You see suspicious trucks, and they're heading your way, suddenly you hear an explosion, your humvee was attacked by an RPG! You run over to the mounted 50 Cal, you start firing at the trucks, and then you see the men who fired the RPG, you start firing at them, as soon as you are firing this song comes to mind, they would fire an RPG at you, you knew this was your death, and your fate is sealed, Suddenly you wake up. Your still in that chair, you were knocked out and had a dream, The men come in again, but this time your platoon doesn't come. They load their guns, and they aim it at you. With your last moments, and last breaths were here. As they aimed the gun at you, this song played...
I’ve seen a lot of death povs, scrolling through her, but you made it different. Thank you.
For me the most haunting is when the WTC was ready to collapse and there was the Bee Gees' song How deep is your love played in the lobby
I'm 10 and I feel nostalgic about something non existent, what is happening to me.
Past life?
Ahhh takes me back to that summer in 1976
I didn’t even exist in the 70s
Pov:Your the last human on earth walking around while listening to this on your phone without airpods or whatever in.Your humming along to it before you wake up with doctors surrounding you.
POV:
You are a mall janitor on their first day. It is 8:39 p.m. and there is nobody in the mall except for you and your coworkers. You are cleaning the floors, emptying the deep fryer, and basically normal janitor things. Then this song comes on and startles you and your coworkers. You just continue your job, and the song shuts off. You still keep working. But a voice comes on the intercom. You don’t recognize the voice as your boss’s, and it slightly scares you. The voice on the intercom says, “welcome to Raiser malls, my job right now is to evacuate the mall, we are having a zombie invasion. Please do not panic, for the employees will evacuate the area and mall. Thank you for your cooperation.” You and your coworkers realize there is no one but you in the mall. You have to get yourself out along with some food and waters. You find the closest door without an alarm. You get out, and your coworkers and you are ok. Then you find many car wrecks and fires along the road and street. You try to find a human who hasn’t been infected, and find some people who own a war/disaster bunker. You all get inside and lock the door. The people who own the bunker are scared, and so are you. You stay there for a couple hours and make a plan. The owners go to sleep. The police show up the next morning. The police are making sure you and your friends are ok. you and the owners of the bunker, the police, and the coworkers exit the bunker and find a few people who have been injured. Then you get those people and help them. Everyone is ok, except a person got infected, and taken down. The infected got cured a few days later, and the story ends here.
There is never a bad time to listen to ABBA.
This low key makes good background music for gaming
I love ur icon
Bro you know what this sounds like?
Your playing dead rising 1 killing the zombies in the mall. You hear that 1 song in the background.
I think I had a past life from this time because I seem to remember things I didn't do..
Thats called "dropping acid"
Gives new meaning to the word potato.
Thank you
i’m legit crying so hard, i miss the days where you can shop and have a good little snack at the food court and good music would play
I remember dated 70s decor in a lot of buildings when I was a kid in the early 90s
Lots of browns, whites and wood panelling
Also more plant and vegetation
this is like a fragment of a memory, tucked away in your head that only has bits and pieces. The squeak of your shoes on the floor, the texture of the fake wood, lingering feelings and a distant song. No human presence. A lonely place, a forgotten place. For a short while listening to this we can get some glimpses of these lost memories.
So so so so well put 😭
pov: you’re stoned out of your mind walking down the candy isle at a walmart headed towards the video game section so you can play the switch demo at 2:46 a.m.
2:46
Seems like the start to what might be a really creepy horror movie , you can just imagine the sound fading away and the camera panning around to reveal ...
*David Dobrik enters chat* OH ITS OOONNNN
COVID-19 has wiped out everyone, you've gone back to your favourite mall for one last song....
Imagine:...
The three main characters all around the ages of 16 or so just survived an explosion that the unknown villain (for now) caused. They landed in an abandoned shopping mall. The leader of the group coughs and sits up brushing dust off of herself. She looks over and sees her love interest doing the same. She then looks around for her best friend that got tagged along in the mission. Looking over to her left she sees the worst thing imaginable. Her friend is laying there on the ground stiff. Throwing rubble to her side she runs over to her aid. After whispering no several times she cradles her friends head and hugs her tightly knowing that she has indeed died. Then the love interest comes over and hugs the main girl who is now sobbing. All if quiet while this song playing over the stores intercoms while a small sob can also be audible. The end
Oh shit
make a movie or show or something right now or i will scream
I was only 3 years old. Just to think that if I could step into that picture, I could go back in time and live my life all over again. 😥 Of course I would have to find out what state this mall was in and take a train or a bus to my state of birth. Lol
I remember getting lost in a food court as a kid. Scary shit
Add footsteps and panting and occasional screams to make the scariest thing to live.
It’s the end of the world, your entire family is dead, everyone you know died. You slowly walk to the mall for the one thing you need;
The pistol you find behind the counter, this song is playing as you put the loaded gun to your head, listening to the soft song.
Squeeze the trigger.
Pov: Walking in the Titanic while everyone drinks cheerfully, unaware of the disaster that is about to happen.
but that was 1912...
Guacamole Goddess wow you found my comment, cool.
POV: you're walking in your childhood mall that you used to go to that's now abandoned and hearing dancing queen in intercom and dancing to song in the middle of the entire mall.
Hears Demogorgon Banging on the door screeching
I love how the setting looks so 70s too
Pov:
Your walking around in a abandoned mall after a murder killed 23 people last year in 1976 and the murder has never been found. Randomly Dancing Queen started to play on the old speakers.
This just made me have a 3am breakdown and I don’t know why
I’m imaging the That 70s Show gang hanging out here. Who needs the Hub when you can have the mall?!😁
Jackie would definitely be there
Logan Jankosky 😁
Who just has a random stock photo of an old Burger King laying in front of a camera all day long?
Pov:this song starts to play over the intercom but you remember your the only one alive and you go there and find a phone and then get hit in the back of the head
POV: You're an urban explorer and hear this in an abandoned mall at 3am. You are not alone.
To be honest. I believe this sadness generates due to the feeling of wanting to go back. Not back to this specific time, but old music and old settings do that. It makes you want to turn back the clock, to times that were better.
Not exactly this time, but a time of happiness that you either had stolen from you or you lost in a swirl of either bad events or sadness. You wanna go back, and just enjoy a simple bliss that you either barely remember feeling or the pain of losing it hurts too much.
when you went out to buy supplies during the great quarantine
