瑞典流行團體［王牌］──歐洲流行曲──［Never Gonna Say I’m Sorry／絕對不說我抱歉］

 

I'm never gonna say I'm sorry,

I'm a clown for everyone

I'm never gonna let you down,

I'm always here like a sun

 

I'm a looser, that is a fact for sure

I'm happy even if you don't want

To invite me out for a dance tonight

I'm not normal, I know, I don't care

I'm never gonna say

 

I'm always here like a sun, I'm always here

Like a ghost I follow your steps so true

You don't have to bribe me or fill me up

Give me just a minute to shine with you

I will make you so happy, make you laugh

I'm never gonna say I'm sorry for

 

The essence of my soul

There's so many ways to change my life

'Cause I want to, oh

I'm like a clown, I'm fun for everyone,

I'm never gonna say I'm sorry

１９９６年３月　瑞典熱門流行四人團王牌（Ace of Base）發行專輯［The Bridge］第三首主打［Never Gonna Say I’m Sorry］（美國直到８月才推出）

這是團員Jonas Berggren譜寫（筆名Joker）

由他跟Denniz PoP,Max Martin共同製作

是首歐洲流行曲　有著彈性的輕快舞曲節拍與討好的旋律

Jonas說想重現其成名曲［All That She Wants］的氛圍　因此編曲鼓聲相似

 

［Never Gonna Say I’m Sorry／絕對不說我抱歉］反應不理想 　只有北歐相對較好：

瑞典＃２４　丹麥＃１２　芬蘭＃１７　智利＃１８　奧地利＃３８　法國＃４１　德國＃４４　加拿大＃５３　澳洲＃７９

歐洲榜＃７８

美國由於Arista唱片公司不滿意此曲　因此決定不搭配MV發行單曲

加上團員當時在歐洲　缺乏宣傳　成為王牌在當地首支沒打入Billboard單曲榜的主打（＃１０６）　舞曲混音銷售榜＃１８

這是專輯［The Bridge］最後一首單曲　雖然音樂品質上升

但王牌卻聲勢大降

再也沒有重現首張大碟［Happy Nation／The Sign］的榮光
