到了「Mamma Mia!」電影的這個樂段，承接了上一段婚禮前夕的舞會，在由 Donna Dynamos 開場演唱之後，所有的來賓與旅館工作人員，全都準備一齊盡情歌舞狂歡，由於這是一場女性專屬的派對，所以此時的所有女性與會者，則爭相搶著要跟兩位在場男賓客跳舞，因而使 ABBA 的經典名曲 - Gimme Gimme Gimme 之意境發揮到了極致，單身的女性對於男人的渴求，就如同歌曲的副歌裡最經典的那一段話：「Gimme Gimme Gimme a man after midnight. Won't somebody help me chase these shadows away? Gimme Gimme Gimme a man after midnight. Take me through the darkness to the break of the day.」

由於這個樂段在電影中只有一段副歌的長度，大部份是 Sophie 和 Bill 的對話，因此這裡就沒有放上電影的這個片段，而是跟各位分享該歌曲的另一部 MV 短片，其演出者就是「Mamma Mia!」電影的兩位主角演員 - Amanda Seyfried(飾演 Sophie) 以及 Dominic Cooper(飾演 Sophie 的未婚夫 Sky)，以及 ABBA 合唱團的其中一位老團員也在影片最後一小段出場。底下就請大家靜靜欣賞這首 ABBA 的經典名曲以及其原版歌詞：

Half past twelve
And I'm watching the late show in my flat all alone
How I hate to spend the evening on my own
Autumn winds
Blowing outside the window as I look around the room
And it makes me so depressed to see the phone
There's not a soul out there
No one to hear my prayer

Gimme gimme gimme a man after midnight
Won't somebody help me chase these shadows away
Gimme gimme gimme a man after midnight
Take me through the darkness to the break of the day

Movie stars
Find the end of the rainbow, with that fortune to win
It's so different from the world I'm living in
Tired of T.V.
I open the window and I gaze into the night
But there's nothing there to see, no one in sight
There's not a soul out there
No one to hear my prayer

Gimme gimme gimme a man after midnight
Won't somebody help me chase these shadows away
Gimme gimme gimme a man after midnight
Take me through the darkness to the break of the day

Gimme gimme gimme a man after midnight...
Gimme gimme gimme a man after midnight...

There's not a soul out there
No one to hear my prayer

Gimme gimme gimme a man after midnight
Won't somebody help me chase these shadows away
Gimme gimme gimme a man after midnight
Take me through the darkness to the break of the day
Gimme gimme gimme a man after midnight
Won't somebody help me chase these shadows away
Gimme gimme gimme a man after midnight
Take me through the darkness to the break of the day
