Well, considering there's an influx of comments because of the mysterious algorithm, I'd like to ask some of you all to be a bit considerate of others and the subject herself. Granted, there are some comments that are amusing to read, and another batch that provokes an interesting discussion. But do be careful; it's a suggestion to consider. That's all I ask. Take care!
@@slobodanreka1088 Unfortunately some people are flipping it around and getting dirty about Agnetha instead of getting to know the pronunciation. She was the subject of a stalker incident in the late 1990s-2000s which I will not elaborate on because it’s too long and too tragic, therefore I can not publish lewd and risque comments or comments that add nothing to the discussion at the moment. Compliments are fine; I suggest just keep away from writing what you would not want to say to someone’s face. That’s why I was attentive to a so-called “bloodbath”. Sorry; had to be a little more wary. Hope you understood that 😊
@Yan Terahn I'm a Swede, and I can confirm that you're correct. But that doesn't explain why not all Swedish women sound like Agnetha. Her voice sounds uniquely like her, regardless of where she's from.
@Yan Terahn Well, yes. And I'm saying that the Swedish accent is not enough to sound like Agnetha. The accent makes her sound more melodious, it's true, but that's not the same as saying that her speaking voice sounds just as melodious as her singing. It might seem that way to foreigners, but I can't be objective about this.
Thankfully ABBA disbanded permanently with class and dignity. Unlike so many other bands. Mick Jagger still singing Satisfaction at age 80 is beyond embarrassing and sad.
@@moonbeamskies3346 not really no, I watched the rolling stones in concert a few years ago in London (my home city) and they absolutely rocked it!!! I hurt myself that evening (long story) but it was still worth going, that's how great it was! Why shouldn't they still be playing if they can still rock it?? No need to retire if you still love what you do :) I wish ABBA remained together and wrote many more songs and developed different styles with time etc but alas their divorces meant it wasnt going to happen.
@Grace Furrow Never for Ever is great, yeah. Babooshka is a fantastic opener. The cover is really cool too, then again that could be said for just about any of her albums. Unfortunately I don't have any Kate vinyl yet, I need to get on that. I'll wish you good luck on your search though.
With the new album releasing this week, it was interesting to watch CBS Sunday Morning News' interview with Bjorn and Benny. All of the band fully participated in the new album and the staging work for the new virtual show, but the women have declined to do any publicity for either.
Agneta or Agnetha is a rather old name in Swedish which you don't see a lot now adays on younger people. On that note it doesn't make it any less beautiful though, just putting it out there. Edit: The average age is 66 years old.
Hmmm, the surname isn't that difficult to pronounce. But I have the "ä" in my mother tongue, maybe that's why the surname is not that difficult for me. But Agnetha is extremely difficult to pronounce.
@@FannomacritaireSuomi oh really? And I was so happy that I could at least say the surname right. But how is the actual "e" pronounced then if the "ä" is pronounced like an "e"?
@The Real Gordon Ramsay I still find Jerker funny at 42years, as well as the japanese company name "Kuken" that makes large water towers, yes "Kuken" means the dick in swedish. 😂
Agnetha literally puts the "A" in "ABBA" and has always been my personal favorite. An amazing and timeless talent. And new congratulations to ABBA on this brand new 2021 album, VOYAGE. 40 years we waited but the world is still listening. Thank you for the music.
As hard as I try, I end up with a Russian "Анета", with the emphasis in a weird place😂. She sounds like a very nice girl. Having seen more recend interviews with her, life has been very hard on her, probably due to fame.
Hmm. I was trying to go for "Агнета" but it's pronounced like "Ангнета" if one were to account for the Swedish pronunciation. Perhaps the text doesn't do much justice, and neither does the audio. The recent interviews I've seen, are a bit pensive and restrained, but she gets through with talking nice and not needing to offend anyone - I could at least understand why she felt that way when she had enormous fame.
It’s hard to explain lol it’s like Ahng-ne-táh (the ng is a soft consonant/sound thing that comes from the back of your throat, like the back of your tounge and throat just completely align lmao)
Agnetha is gorgeous beyond the meaning of gorgeous. Her voice is one that the angels would hope to receive. She is one of the top female artist of all time.
It's so pleasant to see a performer who shared their talent literally with the world without any agenda. I still listen to ABBA frequently and look forward to their new stage show.
Omg!! She's just beautiful, all my life I wanted to be her and 53 years later I still do. Today her grace is shown on many sites in 2021, a true angel and a gift to us!! Thank-you for the music ABBA forever a long time fan... Love you all so very much!!❤💕💕
_Thank you for the music, the songs you’re singing. Thanks for all the joy you’re bringing. Who can live without it? I ask in all honesty, what would life be? Without a song or a dance, what are we?

Awhhhhhh. When she went, "and we talk about love" it sounded so much like she was proud of her lil' ol' self for getting her point across so vividly, and it actually was adorable.
I grew up as a kid in the 70's in Australia . They were massive superstars then there. As a kid I wore ABBA T-shirts , had ABBA posters in my room , everything. I was in love with her . She was my angel. Now I live in Europe and I'm 43 years old. Still in love with her !!!!!!
Born in '71 in Australia... my dad adored ABBA... grew up listening to their records... played Fernando, SOS and Dancing Queen a lot...my sister and I would sing along and dance around the house... great memories!!
I bought Agnetha's album "I Stand Alone" on a whim not even knowing who she was. It was fabulous when it was new and I think I'll give it another listen. Haven't heard it for a while.
The way she acknowledges it could be hard to pronounce and tells everyone to call her Anna. I knew I loved her but even the way she says Agentha is perfection.
Little did Agneta know that everyone was not talking about love in general in Sweden.. Only when they were around Agneta was love the number one topic and probably not only in Sweden! Its that strong aura she has.
One of the worlds most beloved pop stars and one of the most down to earth woman you could ever meet her voice along with frida is the magic of abba the 3rd voice i love them both .

Ive never heard such a very passionate pronounciation of the word "love"
