React on ABBA song. Knowing Me Knowing You (official video).

Please keep doing ABBA reactions as i loved watching you and listening to your critique. Other songs by then you should check out are Fernando, Chiquitita and The Name Of The Game. Greatest pop band ever!

🌸 this is roller disco music, baby!!

🌸 love these guys!!!

A lot of their songs have very complex lyrics, my personal favourite being The Winner Takes It All. So shocking when you take into account that English is not their first language. All round sensational group

The ultimate dance floor filler. My daughter has learning difficulties and is very reserved - until they play this song, then she is up on the dance floor dancing her heart out

You picked up on the socio-political aspect very quickly, many reactors miss it altogether. From what and whose perspective, "Even while we sleep, We will find you acting on your best behaviour. Turn your back on mother nature" (Sounds rather totalitarian) They lyrics are pretty cryptic for the most part but the theme of oppression seems pretty clear. "Sowing the seeds of love" is of a similar vein lyrically and another great song by them. And they had more obvious protest song called "Shout"

Excellent reaction. ABBA definitely had a feel good vibe about them even though many of their song weren't feel good topics. They just give off such positive energy. I would for you to react to "SOS" 1975 TV performance. They were always fun to watch perform or live in concert.

The Olivia Newton John tv special with ABAA and Andy Gibb

Stig Anderson, the producer, double laid the voice track to give it a richer sound.

You stopped the vid on the black folks

Bigg Merk, I ABSOLUTELY LOVE your reactions and brilliant analysis.

In case you're not aware, ABBA is the first initial of each member. Agnetha (the blonde) was married to Bjorn (the guitar player), and Benny (the piano player) was married to Anni-frid (the brunette).

ENTHUSIASTIC/FANTASTIC/AWESOME reaction/analysis. Bigg Merk, I subscribed to this channel within minutes of listening to your EXCELLENT intro and BRILLIANT analysis. In my opinion, it is IMPOSSIBLE to not smile and not get up and dance to Dancing Queen. ABBA Forever. 😊 👍

that BASS...kudos Rutger Gunnarsson

I grew up listening to ABBA. This is 1 of my favorites from them. The other is The Winner Takes it all. If you're looking for a fantastic current cover of Unchained Melody, with a smile that will knock your socks off, I suggest you listen to Lucy Thomas's version: ruclips.net/video/mqkx7Av6yMg/видео.html

ABBA are one of the best groups ever, their harmony, the voices of the ladies and the variety of their songs are unique. Check out more: ABBA Live Tokyio 19778 "If it wasn't for the Night" "The Name of the Game" and more. Also great "Kisses Of Fire, Lovers Live A Little Longer (Live Switzerland '79)" Hits that you don't hear everywhere and are simply brilliant. Plus the ladies are super sexy 🙂

If you want to check out songs based on different moods, here are my suggestions. Knowing Me Knowing You and The Winner Takes It All are a bit sad and sound like it. SOS and Chiquitita are sad but don't sound like it. Take a Chance on Me is happy and sounds like it 😄 By lead vocals you can see Frida on Fernando and Knowing Me Knowing you. Agnetha on The Winner Takes it all and SOS.

ABBA is Sweden's gift to the world. They are (in my humble opinion) the greatest group of all time. There is no such thing as a mediocre ABBA song. Their genius is: 1. Meticulous Vocals Agnetha (prounounced Ann-Yay-Tuh) Faltskog - Blonde And Annifrid (Frida) Lyngstad -Brunette / Red Head Each of these ladies have incredible solo voices in their own right, and when they are combined - it is an otherwordly sound that can't be described. 2. Genius Songwriting Benny Anderson (Pianist) is the genius songwriter who implemented Classical, Swedeish, Schlager, Rock and Roll and Pop infusion into their compisitions - coupled with Bjorn Ulvaeus (guitarist and lyricist) to write a Catalogue of music that can't be matched. Mind you - English is their 2nd language, and they still were able to write songs with incredible lyrics and deliver them with that BEAUTIFUL Swedish Lilt (as an aside, the Swedish accent has a very musical intonation - part of the magic of ThevABBA sound). Please do a deep dive: Below are some recommended songs to start out with: Agnetha lead: SOS, The Winner Takes it All; My Love My Life; Chiquiqita. Annifrid (Frida) lead: Fernando; Super Trouper; Knowing Me Knowing You; When All is Said and Done; I Let The Music Speak. This is just the start. ABBA is timeless and cannot be matched. Welcome to your ABBA Deep Dive. You won't be disappointed. A Diehard 62 year old Super Fan!

This is great! I love your breakdown!

If you want to react to a song that blends somewhat different elements or sections of music into one cohesive whole, do react to The Name of the Game. It’s an amazing song - the various sections that make up the song are quite diverse and yet everything fits seamlessly and it’s a really beautiful piece-vocally, instrumentally and lyrically. The harmonies and backing vocals are otherworldly. It’s my favourite ABBA song (and I love most of their output).❤

Disco was big in the late 70s. No so much in the 80s. It died out pretty fast. ABBAs 80s music was rather different than their late 70s songs, which were, again, quite different to their early 70s songs. They did change a lot over the 10 years. An early song that was quite unique was "My Mama Said". Very catchy song.

Remember that ABBA is the iconic Swedish pop quartet, the best, most versatile and most important of the 70s, in the post BEATLES decade (the revolutionary group of the 60s) ABBA, as in its time BEATLES, was a musical and cultural phenomenon, and its legacy lives on remember that ABBA is an acrostic with initials of their first names; initialy They was two couples: A- Agnetha (blonde lead vocal) & B- Björn (guitarist and songwriter) B- Benny (pianist and songwriter) & A- Anni Frid (brunette lead vocal) (both couples separated before the breakup of the group in 1982) "Dancing Queen" (1976) is a beautiful song, which shines in the loftiness of its vocal harmonies the blonde singer Agnetha is soprano voice, the brunette singer Frida is mezzo soprano voice, and blending together made the famous and fantastic 'third voice of ABBA' And the music is bright and enveloping, from the initial chord it introduces you into the atmosphere of the disco and invites you to dance English public has voted it as one of the songs they want to hear the most, because of the feeling of joy and energy it gives them (another is "Don't stop me now" by Queen) And in 2015 "Dancing Queen" was included in the Hall of Fame of Rock and Roll music ABBA recording between 1972/1982, have a wonderful series of more than 20 worldwide hits (and also 50 another great songs), included nine #1 in UK: Waterloo Mamma Mia Fernando Dancing Queen Knowing me knowing you The name of the game Take a chance on me The winner takes it all Super trouper And after more than 35 years ABBA return to studio in 2017 and recording a full new album "Voyage" between 2017/2021 released in November 2021 and is a worldwide succes ABBA begin to be famous in 1974, when They won the Eurovision Song Contest in UK with their iconic song "Waterloo" Last April 2024 was their 50th anniversary and Eurovisión gives a tribute to ABBA and Waterloo Muy suggestion Is to react the live perfomance of ABBA ay Eurovisión in Brighton UK 1974 I hope to see more reactions to ABBA GOD bless you my best regards from Buenos Aires Argentina 🇦🇷 South America

Great reaction. I'm 70 and enjoy that the younger generations have been reacting to ABBA and how much people enjoy them. They're well loved to this day and I believe their music will be timeless. ❤

Even Bey is stunned there...🫢🧡💥

BEST ⭐ POP ⭐ BAND ⭐ EVER! Do you like harmonies?... try 'Fernando' and 'Chiquitita' 😀 Hope to see you soon ✌️ Take care Love ❤️ from Chile 🇨🇱🤗👍

Excellent, spot-on analysis of this wonderful song (which just so happens to be my favorite pop song of all time). You're a natural at this.

JC all the way that’s bae 😂❤

The three of them synchronize their vibratos, which I can't think of any other group even attempting.

Classic 🙌 1980s song 🎵 Produced by Chris Hughes. Written by him, Ian Stanley and Roland Orzabal. Hughes on the drum 🥁 shuffle. (He was a drummer 🥁 for Adam Ant before quitting.) Stanley on synthesizers. Orzabal on backing vocal, synthesizers, rhythm guitar 🎸 Guitar 🎸 Solo 1. Curt Smith on lead vocal. Written by accident. 🤯 The record company needed another song. Well, this was the last song recorded. Hughes got Orzabal to strum 2 chords on each verse. That bored him 😐! Eventually, the musicians and Hughes finished the recording. Orzabal was not excited 😒 about the song for a few weeks. But, the song climbed the Billboard charts slowly 🐌. Orzabal grew to like 👍 the song! 😃 A few years ago, the sound man at Tears for Fears concerts played the Lourde version of this song. The fans were displeased 😡. But, Tears for Fears retirned to the stage and started playing. The fans went wild! 🤯 Family 👪 tree 🌳. The Simple Minds song Water 💧 Front inspired this song 🎵 . ➕ This song inspired Glass Tiger 🐅 and Bryan Adams. Suggested videos 📹: 1 Tears For Fears 😨 perform Break It Down Again 2 Glass Tiger 🐅 and Bryan Adams perform Don't Forget Me When I'm Gone 3 Bryan Adams sings Can't Stop This Thing We Started. 4 Adam Ant sings Goody Two Shoes 👞 👞

Team JC 🤩

Great reaction. If you do check out more Justin Vernon stuff, he has two performances of Heavenly Father that would be great to watch. One is at Sydney Opera House and one is at PEOPLE Fest 18. Both are wonderful. Also, he and Aaron Dessner formed Big Red Machine together and Taylor is featured on their song Renegade. Thanks!

Can’t wait for more people to see this ❤

JC the Best!

I get the same big smile and feeling of appreciation when I see a Bee Gees video. They really were a very special group. That brother harmony-and their song writing was unique. You are delightful by the way, thank you for the positivity and thoughtful words.

JC forever❤ He didn't have the opportunities or the support.😢

First time viewer. New sub

It’s not the full version

I have watched so many reactions to this song/performance and no one has expained it so so well. Well done.

I am a first time watcher of this channel. The way you described the emotional connection that happens with music was amazing. Thank you for that

THE IRONY

Saw them in 2023. They still have a huge following

Such a great group. Check out their song "Woman in Chains" feat. Oleta Adams. Absolutely beautiful.

When he says “they know me and Jack Daniels have a history” what’s he’s referring to is that when Jack Daniels was getting started, his master distiller was a black slave named Nearest Green. The green and Daniels families are still close to this day. He giving a nod to the long relationship between the black community and Jack Daniels whiskey.

I was a teenager when this song dropped. It didn’t matter if you were a nerd, jock, burnout, or goth everyone loved this song and probably had the cassette!!! Tears for Fears are legendary. Great video bro 🖖✌️

Don’t think too much into it! This was just FEEL GOOD MUSIC! Thank you! ❤

i don't care what decade, it's a beautiful song. try 'head over heels'

Saw them on their Tipping Point tour in 2022. They were fantastic live. Their music usual contains deep meaningful lyrics. Try “Woman in Chains” next.

Read the book 1984. You'll immediately see the connection. Immediately.

Yes, Tears for Fears were not afraid to include social commentary in their songs. It is continued in their other hits, including "Shout" and "Sowing the Seeds of Love".
