Ace of Base - The Sign

a little story filled with romantic and frolic images is just what i need.

Music video

The music video of the song features the pop group singing amidst romantic and frolic images; "The Sign" was depicted as an ankh and a djed.

Amid the images is a little story of a man and woman sitting side by side until the man leaves, seemingly abandoning the woman. However, he comes back with a rose and offers it to the woman. The woman graciously accepts and takes his hand. However, a bright light shines in the woman's face, drawing her away, abandoning the man and dropping the rose on the chair.

  1. Soon, I will have selected comments from youtube, but until then I want to share a personal story about this song. Back when it came out I was in high school, and rode the school bus with a bunch of much younger children. The bus driver always had the radio on and usually he played the tom joyner morning show, but one day the sign started playing and every single little kid (they couldn't have been more than 8) sang in unison along with that song.
