I don't understand people who say Abba was just a pop band, who made trivial music. This performance, by this supremely talented lady shows that Abba were much more than that. They wrote some magical music, with superb melodies & incisive lyrics. They are one of the great musical partnerships in music.
Anyone who says they were just a pop band clearly never tried to recreate there songs there use of phrasing and chords and progressions are very very good . This is my opinion as a guitar player
I tool lessons for more than 7 years when I was yong at the conservatory, then I stopped for 6 years, but When I get back to playing and practice I was happy that I did not lose that much, and now I continue playing..you know it's only fear inside us...that's it...go a head
I'm travelling on a fast train in Italy and watching the world go by me and I'm listening to this. It's a pretty powerful sensation I assure you. Sort of shakes my very foundations. Greetings from Italy.
Italy is a country I adore ! Worked in Rome in 1980 and went to school at night for the language with my wife , I enjoyed every moment of my 6 moth tenure in Rome !
Sitting there playing like that, you remind me of my piano teacher when I was 11 years old. She taught me on the second floor of a very old mansion in the residential district of our city; and even though 56 years have passed since then, I can still remember walking up the brick path to the house, which in a few of my memories, was covered with autumn leaves, or sometimes with snow. As I entered up the front staircase to the porch, then through the large double doors & into the expansive foyer, then up the long curved staircase to the second floor, I became aware of the faint sounds of the practicing students, which grew louder as I climbed the staircase. As I reached the top, and inside each room I would then pass, I could clearly hear the other instructors & their students . . . some practicing on an instrument and some diligently exercising their vocals, as they went up & down the scales. My lessons there with my teacher would eventually lead to progressively more difficult arrangements & recitals, but I was too young to realize at the time how fortunate I was, and that I was actually being immersed into culture & art, if only for the two years I kept at it. Looking back, it was almost like walking into the opening scenes of the show "Fame" every week.
This kind of thing is the real beauty of RUclips, it allows people like me to discover truly fantastic artists like this lady, well done and thankyou for the music (no pun intended)
The gift has a recipe: Practice several hours per day, for ages. LISTEN carefully to what you are playing. Follow this simple recipe for a number of years Arthur, and I promise you that you would also be able to pull this off (more or less). Tusen tack Ulrik A. Rosén, skön tolkning. Din frasering appellerar till mig!
ulrika is a beautiful woman.like most swedish women are. i should know i'm married to a beautiful swede and live in uppsala sweden. great piano playing there ulrika
You should have thanked her lover or husband.Women are known for not being able to make money,just spend it. So, cherchez l'homme!(French) Search for THE man!!!
Yes. Piano is the king because there is so much more depth of music available on the keyboard, as opposed the guitar, which makes it even more remarkable when a talented artist like Gabriella comes along, and is able to release incredible acoustical harmony from her guitar. Ulrika & Gabriella should consider recording a duet together.
this made me cry... i love this song... all of abba... i’m learning piano myself and this was beautiful to listen to. very talented sophisticated lady... done abba proud !!!
Frau Rosén. Wunderbare Interpretation eines Meisterwerks zeitgenössischer Musik. Alle Mitglieder der ABBA-Gruppe würden Ihnen gratulieren, wenn sie dieses Video gesehen haben.
The winner takes it all is the biggest and shiniest brilliant in a crown called ABBA. And this is a totally new dimension of that masterpiece. Thank you, Ulrika!
What makes this song great is the brilliant long melody lines, nice chord progressions, the main theme consists of slow triplets, the fact that the verse lines fit exactly between the main theme, and simplicity. Most modern pop music is way too simple, sometimes I try to analyse some flat pop songs with my children in the hope they also try to find what makes songs great. It's often a combination of interesting (long) melody lines, some not-too-standard-chord progressions, some rythmic patterns / accents, a breaks and buildups, catchy lyrics, a touch of musical virtuosity, and rich sound quality. I think / hope song writing art (like abba and the beatles did) will be appreciated more in future, (much like Bach's art was recognised later).
beautifully done. Thank you. Abba was amazing and living in the US I'm sad that I didn't get to see them perform live. This has always been my favorite song from the band.
ABBA 'I thank you for the music''' and Ulrika for playing in ditto, brilliant. U r taking us to our childhood days, this sound of piano is making my head sway, close my eyes....wonderful..
I’ve always loved ABBA - I actually watched them when they won the Eurovision contest and they weren’t famous yet. But Ms Ulrika your piano rendition is truly magical. It’s beautiful! And you are very talented. I’m inspired by your playing. Thank you for the music ;-)
This 35-song playlist of Abba songs is one of the best I have ever heard. Benny Andersson's compositions are genius, among the great of all time. And I love piano music. Hearing these songs without lyrics and sophisticated production, brings out their raw quality.
Bravo à vous Ulrika, cette interprétation d'une chanson si populaire de ABBA est particulièrement bien jouée. Les différentes voix ressortent très bien, le tempo est très correct, la mélodie excelle avec la sonorité de votre piano. Merci à vous et continuez à nous faire rêver. ;) laurent
Chère madame, Ulrika, j'aurai une demande personnelle, et pour les internaute aussi bien entendu. Pourriez-vous nous interpréter un jour, "make your own kind of music" de Mama cass elliot au piano? Par avance merci ;)
Never mind the beautiful jewellery or the song or the great piano playing, its the beautiful YOU thats adds the essence of life to this video. There was never a time that you did not exist, & there will never be a time when you wont.
Wonderful rendition , thanks for this madam. And thank you ABBA for the music.........your music and legacy will still be remembered many years after most of today's rubbish is long forgotten. Talent such as ABBA's comes but once in a lifetime............if you are lucky
Who Knows, knows. You make me breathe the fresh air and fly so high when I look down I only see the sky. You are blessed. Thank you for you beautiful ballads!
I just listened to Gabriella Quevedo play this song on guitar, Which led me to seek other renditions and I found you. Very beautiful and elegant. So peaceful listening to you play. Very nice and a warm smile at the end to boot. Excellent.
Such a soul crushing melody. Bjorn and Benny really are masters of the craft.
Yes they are, but I think that Agnetha's voice made more successful this song.
I don't understand people who say Abba was just a pop band, who made trivial music. This performance, by this supremely talented lady shows that Abba were much more than that. They wrote
some magical music, with superb melodies & incisive lyrics. They are one of the great musical partnerships in music.
Agreed.
I can't agree more. Their music is out of this planet! I beleive Benny and Bjorn are Geniuses!
@@akri29 yep.
Anyone who says they were just a pop band clearly never tried to recreate there songs there use of phrasing and chords and progressions are very very good . This is my opinion as a guitar player
It’s a great song.
I'm 65, and this song will always be a CLASSIC, and you do it great justice. Thank you for the music!
This is the language we all understand - better than English, Spanish or whatever. This is what real art has meant to be. Thank you for sharing!
just the first words... i don't wanna talk!
Beautifully said
Art is great!!!
Девушка просто класс. Обожаю фортопьяно. И КАК она играет.
Very true, well said.
Beautiful lady, beautiful piano, beautiful playing. Thank you.
De gustibus non est disputandum
Listening to you playing makes me wish I had continued to take my piano lessons. It's something I've always regretted.
It's never too late to try again.
@RUclips Manthan B235PW
It's never too late 💜
what are waiting for? The more you wait the more you'll regret never playing
I tool lessons for more than 7 years when I was yong at the conservatory, then I stopped for 6 years, but When I get back to playing and practice I was happy that I did not lose that much, and now I continue playing..you know it's only fear inside us...that's it...go a head
Somebody who clearly knows what they’re doing with a piano. Beautiful and perfect. I don’t think this could be any better. 👌🏻
And a do think
And I do think
No words can describe how beautifully you played this masterpiece👏
“Absolutely beautiful version of Abba The Winner Takes it all”

It's a quarter past 10 a.m. I'm lying on sofa and reading your short story about your travelling. Best regards from Russia.
@@mir_dobro Вы почти целиком озвучили мой заготовленный комментарий. 😉
This is incredibly emotional even
without Agnetha’s stunning performance.
Incredible music.
Wonderful piano cover! Like👍.
Thank you very much! 💗
Have a great day! 🌅
When I want to relax I am loving the music the Mrs. Urika A. Rosén played all the times. She is bringing calm for my self.
Unbelievable charm, a woman at the piano who lights up your soul and warms your heart... Abba forever!
That was played beautifully. One of the best versions I’ve heard of that song!

Her Grace and her skill makes the piano really singing.

Your playing is BEAUTIFUL! Hearing this brilliant tune isolated like this (and Chiquitita) shows the amazing musical talent within ABBA!
Watch an elegant lady playing a well known melody. That’s how you can relieve all stress the most.
This kind of thing is the real beauty of RUclips, it allows people like me to discover truly fantastic artists like this lady, well done and thankyou for the music (no pun intended)
I cry watching this video. You have a gift!!! You're blessed. God bless your life and your music.
Thank you very much Arthur, for your kind words. Very beautiful and I´m so grateful. All the best to you. /Ulrika

You should have thanked her lover or husband.Women are known for not being able to make money,just spend it.
So, cherchez l'homme!(French)
Search for THE man!!!
The best reason to be happy. A first class lady playing a wonderful musical piece in a charming room. Life is so short.
Beautifully played ulrika..played from your heart.
I play guitar but have to admit that the piano is the King of Instruments and this is a superb performance by this talented artist.
Yes. Piano is the king because there is so much more depth of music available on the keyboard, as opposed the guitar, which makes it even more remarkable when a talented artist like Gabriella comes along, and is able to release incredible acoustical harmony from her guitar.

Beautiful, crisp... and very elegant. The smile at the end is pure gold dust.

Mis respetos señora 😍 toca el piano muy hermoso y con una canción que marco una época muy especial... Buena interpretación 😊
Honestly one of the best piano players I've ever heard! Congratulations!
Thought like most people that this was just a pop song, until I saw the movie. What an incredible lyric, heartwrenching.
So beautiful. I felt like i was sitting in your living room listening to your beautiful play. Thank you so much.
It's the magic of Ulrika akin to having a secret Hideaway where the world cannot intrude, a private space although shared is still is still very real.
Прекрасно, Ульрика!
