MAMMA MIA: The Winner Takes It All

The Winner Takes It All
Artist: Meryl Streep
Mamma Mia OST


DONNA:
I don't wanna talk
About things we've gone through
Though it's hurting me
Now it's history
I've played all my cards
And that's what you've done too
Nothing more to say
No more ace to play

The winner takes it all
The loser standing small
Beside the victory
That's her destiny

I was in your arms
Thinking I belonged there
I figured it made sense
Building me a fence
Building me a home
Thinking I'd be strong there
But I was a fool
Playing by the rules

The gods may throw a dice
Their minds as cold as ice
And someone way down here
Loses someone dear

The winner takes it all
The loser has to fall
It's simple and it's plain
Why should I complain?

But tell me does she kiss
Like I used to kiss you?
Does it feel the same
When she calls your name?
Somewhere deep inside
You must know I miss you
But what can I say?
Rules must be obeyed

The judges will decide
The likes of me abide
Spectators of the show
Always staying low
The game is on again
A lover or a friend
A big thing or a small
The winner takes it all

I don't wanna talk
'Cause it makes me feel sad
And I understand
You've come to shake my hand
I apologize
If it makes you feel bad
Seeing me so tense
No self-confidence
But you see

The winner takes it all
The winner takes it all

The game is on agein
A lover or a friend
A big thing or a small
The winner takes it all
The winner takes it all

MAMMA MIA

Meryl Streep plays Donna, an ex-hippie and single mom raising her daughter Sophie (Amanda Seyfried) on a Greek island. When Sophie was about to get married, she invited her mom's ex-lovers (Colin Firth, Pierce Brosnan, Stellan Skarsgard) - one of them could be her father.

Streep is amazing. Superb acting. She obviously had so much fun on this movie. I like the part when she was reunited with her 2 best friends. They're fun to watch. My friends and I share that kind of friendship. And that "Dancing Queen," scene was brilliant. Makes you wanna dance. Another favorite scene was her heartwarming solo "The Winner Takes It All". Very natural acting, one of Streep's greatest performance, I think.

I love the movie. Added it to my favorites already. I missed watching it on the big screen, sayang!

My father owns an ABBA cassette tape and I grew up listening to it. Love love love it. Timeless songs. I know almost all their songs by heart.

Great music, great cast, nice location and beautiful cinematography - all these makes MAMMA MIA movie worth seeing.

Enjoy!
