Covers:
Ria Valk [as Hou Je Echt Nog Van Mij, Rockin' Billy n°2 NL]
Rocking Billy not only emigrated from Holland to America, he first moved from Sweden to Holland, just like Johnny Lion's Sophietje (see: Fröken Fräken). Rocking Billy though was more than just a copy. Same lyrics, but unlike the Swedish original, the Ria Valk-arrangement really rocks. Written by Stig Anderson, before becoming ABBA's manager.
