TURN THE WORLD AROUND
Agnetha
"Turn The World Around" did not appear on the original version of Agnetha's 2nd English-language studio album following the dissolution of ABBA. The track was used as the B-side for the 1985 single "One Way Love". When the 'Eyes Of A Woman' LP was re-issued in 2005, the song was included as one of the bonus tracks.

TO TURN THE STONE
Frida
'Something's Going On' was Frida's 3rd solo album and her first to be recorded in English. "To Turn The Stone" was written by Pete Bellotte and Giorgio Moroder who normally had worked closely with Donna Summer. The latter recorded her version of the same song for a 1981 album. Plans for that project were shelved. Her version of the song remained in the vaults until it surfaced on the 'I'm A Rainbow' album issued in 1996.
