Erasure - Take A Chance On Me (WYRO Edit) HQ

*All of my videos feature the best sound quality you'll find anywhere! Thanks for checking out my 90's channel.

Very rare radio edit played on several Top 40 stations in the early '90's. This version was primarily used because the rap portion has been taken out.

"Take a Chance on Me" is a song by the Swedish pop group ABBA. It was released in January 1978 as the second single from their fifth studio album, simply called The Album. The song has been featured on a number of ABBA compilations such as Gold: Greatest Hits.

The track was famously covered by English synthpop duo Erasure in 1992, as part of their Abba-esque EP, with an additional ragga-style rap performed by MC Kinky added to the song. The cover topped the UK Singles Chart for 5 weeks in 1992.

So much better than the other obnoxious version. I just want to skip that pseudo-Jamaican breakdown or whatever it is every time.
