A super trouper is a type of spotlight, hence the lyric: "Tonight the Super trouper lights are gonna find me." (thanks, Barry - Whitburn, Scotland)
This song was the last to be written for the Super Trouper album. In fact, the name "Super Trouper" had already been chosen as an album title, named after the stage lights of the same name. It was a lucky coincidence that the song Benny and Bjorn were writing to be an up tempo single ended up fitting with the title. (thanks, Sarah - Canada)
This song also reached #1 in Belgium, Ireland, Netherlands and West Germany. (thanks, Jerro - New Alexandria, PA)

My favorte song of all time. Only AbbA could make so many songs and each song was betetr than the other. I go every year to see ABBA perform which are 4 musicians who look like the group. Great fun

i believe that what abba are trying to convey with this song is how difficult stardom can be and also how people can misunderstand and think stars lives are perfect.'facing twenty thousand of your fans how can anyone be so lonely part of a success that never ends'. they don't realise that even famous and succesful people can get down
