Tiger (ABBA song)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
"Tiger" is written from the perspective of a threatening entity warning the listener of the dangers of the city: "People who fear me never come near me, I am the tiger".[3] The exact meaning behind "Tiger" is debated, although most speculators agree "tiger" is used as a metaphor for dangerous aspects of city life. Some hypothesize the tiger represents a stalker or serial killer, while others believe the tiger symbolizes the harmful nature of illicit drugs.[4][5]
The vocals for the song were sung by Agnetha Fältskog and Anni-Frid Lyngstad.
Performance
In the 1977 concert tours, the song was preceded by "the sound of helicopters booming over the speakers".[1] ABBA also performed the song in the film ABBA: The Movie.[6]
