"He Is Your Brother" is a song recorded in 1972 by Swedish folk group "Björn & Benny, Agnetha & Anni-Frid" (which became the pop group ABBA soon after).
The song continued on the lyrical theme from the band's previous single "People Need Love" - reaching out to your fellow man. It was issued as a single in Scandinavia (Polar Music POS 1168), New Zealand (Family Label FAY 1054).
The song only charted in Scandinavian countries. In Sweden, it did not reach the sales chart but was a big radio hit reaching #1 on the Tio i Topp singles chart.
The four musicians involved soon formed "ABBA". The song appeared on the group's debut album Ring Ring, which was released in 1973 in Scandinavia and a few European countries, (and not the United Kingdom).
