      That song is not Christian. It's neo-Nazi. Band members had ties to the right wing fascist Swedish Nationalist Party.
      Oh, the Nazi thing. People had noticed "Happy Nation" (the song) featured some peculiar lyrics:
      happy nation living in a happy nation
      where the people understand
      and dream of the perfect man
      a situation leading to sweet salvation
      for the people for the good
      for mankind brotherhood
      we're travelling in time
      They seemed bizarre though harmless, until some tabloids started publishing stories that in his youth Ulf "Buddha" Ekberg had been connected to a Swedish Nationalist party that was more than a little Nazi-onalist. When the scandal threatened Ace of Base's career, Buddha acknowledged the involvement and issued an apology (for his actions, not of Nazism).
      2. Paradoxically, the Nazi rumors gained new respect for Ace of Base from little right-wing ****heads.

        The song starts with Christian chants and they're praying to Christ seeking salvation for the good of mankind

          Nope. I just showed you they're Nazis. They were card carrying members of the Swedish Nationalist Party. Their
          salvation
          comes from their Führer. That's what the song is about. They espouse a revival of the Viking gods and fascism, not Christianity. 卐

                Sure, they may accept Christ as a great leader along with Buddha and others (Hitler admired Buddhism). But the rhetoric you confuse for Christian is Fascist.

                    Hitler was an existentialist who admired Nietzsche. He pretended to be Christian to appease the church in his country. That's the same with most political leaders. Obama pretends to be Christian but is actually an atheist.

                        Hitler hated the Jews because he blamed them for Christianity. In fact, he hated Christians more than Jews. The Übermensch is the antithesis of Christ.

                                Baby means lover in the song. It's not about an actual baby.

                                  Oh, I see, so she's a weak pathetic woman who can't live without a man? Any man? Another "baby" whomever that may be? Sorry, the song is repulsive.
                                  And confused teenage girls still think she's encouraging them to get pregnant. What better way to trap a boy into a relationship?

                                    Idiot stop focusing on one song
                                    Also that song is actually a criticism of her lifestyle
                                    The girl is depressed in the video
                                    They're telling her to seek Christ 🙏

                                        Sure. Balance is good. But that song is still godawful. I just did some quick googling and found Ace of Base has Neo-Nazi connections. Lol. 卐
