Sirius Black would absolutely have a love-hate relationship with ABBA — they are literally singing about his life:
The album ABBA was released April 21, 1976, when Sirius was in his fourth year and he
Look at me now, will I ever learn?
But I suddenly lose control
There’s a fire within my soul
Just one look and I can hear a bell ring
One more look and I forget everything, whoa
Mamma mia, here I go again
My my, how can I resist you?
2) told Severus to go to the Whomping Willow during a full moon…
Where are those happy days
They seem so hard to find
I tried to reach for you, but you have closed your mind
Whatever happened to our love? I wish I understood
It used to be so nice, it used to be so good…
So, when you’re near me, darling, can’t you hear me
The love you gave me, nothing else can save me, S.O.S.
You seem so far away though you are standing near
You made me feel alive, but something died I fear
3) realised the he loved Remus and told him:
Love me or leave me, make your choice but believe me
I do, I do, I do, I do, I do
I can’t conceal it, don’t you see, can’t you feel it?
So come on, now let’s try it
I love you, can’t deny it
(I do, I do, I do, I do, I do)
The album Arrival was released October 11, 1976, when Sirius was in his sixth year.
First of all, he’s the dancing queen:
Night is young and the music’s high
With a bit of rock music, everything is fine
Secondly, he’s run away from home and Regulus joined the Death Eaters:
I’ve seen it on your face
Tells me more than any worn-out old phrase
So now we’ll go separate ways
Never again, nothing I can do…
In the mirror of your eyes
I can see it all so clearly
But I know I don’t possess you
So go away, God bless you
You are still my love and my life
The Album was released December 12, 1977.
No one ever could reach me
I'm a bashful child beginning to grow
What I'm trying to conceal
If I said I care for you?
Your smile, and the sound of your voice
And the way you see through me
Got a feeling, you give me no choice
Also I have no idea if there were karaoke-bars in England in 1977, but in my head the marauders go to a karaoke-bar and they encourage Lily to go up on stage and do a song, which she is reluctant to but then caves in and starts singing Thank You For The Music with the loveliest voice and most enticing eyes and James m e l t s
Voulez-vous was released April 23, 1979, the year Regulus dies.
How I hate to see you like this
There is no way you can deny it
I can see that you're oh, so sad, so quiet
You were always sure of yourself
Now I see you’ve broken a feather
Super Trouper was released November 3, 1980.
Touch my soul, you know how
I'm your music, I’m your song
Play me time and time again and make me strong
Make me sing, make me sound
Tread lightly on my ground
Oh, please don’t let me down
In the summer of 1981, Sirius got sick of the war and decided to take Remus with him for a weekend in Paris:
The summer air was soft and warm
The feeling right, the Paris night
Did its best to please us
And strolling down the Élysées
We had a drink in each café
And you, you talked of politics, philosophy and I smiled like Mona Lisa
It was a fine and true romance
I can still recall our last summer
Walks along the Seine, laughing in the rain
We made our way along the river
And we sat down in the grass
I was so happy we had met
Like we were dancing our last dance
I can still recall our last summer
In the tourist jam, round the Notre Dame
They toasted to many more summers like those, but it really was their last…
The Visitors was released November 30, 1981. A month earlier, Lily and James were murdered, Peter disappeared and Sirius was imprisoned.
One of us is crying, one of us is lying
Wishing she was somewhere else instead
One of us is shaking with a heart that’s breaking
One of us is lonely, one of us is only
Sorry for herself, feeling stupid, feeling small
Wishing she had never left at all
Do I really see what’s in her mind?
Each time I think I’m close to knowing
Slipping through my fingers all the time
Sleep in our eyes, her and me at the breakfast table
Barely awake, I let precious time go by
Then when she’s gone, there's that odd melancholy feeling
And a sense of guilt I can’t deny
What happened to the wonderful adventures
The places I had planned for us to go?
Slipping through my fingers all the time
Well, some of that we did, but most we didn’t
And why, I just don’t know
(Slipping Through My Fingers)
Knowing Me, Knowing You is Remus walking through Grimmauld Place after Sirius’s death:
No more carefree laughter
Walking through an empty house
Here is where the story ends, this is goodbye
