It's a beautiful Mexican flavoured melody and song, that was left outof the album last minute in favour of 'Super Trouper' .And it was a wise decision cause this one was good but mostly for us Abba fans while ST was a song for the masses!And Frida was both the queen lead to both of them.
Frida's vocal is superb. The lyrics are innocent and naive but they are delivered earnestly and with real feeling. It wasn't released at the time as B&B rejected it but I think it's great, taken for what it is and listened to without 21st century irony. Thanks for reviewing it.
Frida's voice is amazing on this. It's a fun song that was never meant to be on the album. It was added later. Originally a B-side. The theme is a metaphor and not literal.
It was actually meant to be on the Super Trouper album, but was replaced by the title track which was the last song written and recorded for the album. Also it was never a B-side, it remained unreleased until 1992
I reckon something like "On and on and on", "I am the city", and definitely "Kisses of fire" will really be up your alley! Also if you listen to Move On again you'll realize that they always add new components with each verse and new chorus (even if lyrics repeat).
Hi guys this was never meant to be released and was left off the Super Trouper Album..... it only got released 14 years after Abba had disbanded as a bonus track on a box set ( along with a few other unreleased songs).. Its got some lovely harmonies, but not their best by some distance.
Two songs I would highly recommend: "THE PIPER" is a medieval renaissance sounding song...definitely different, unique & beautiful. "DANCE (WHILE THE MUSIC STILL GOES ON)" is one of their older songs that captures their uncanny ability to mix an upbeat sound, with underlying melancholy. It also features Agnetha & Bjorn with lead vocals.
That was a 'Super Trouper' album 'leftover'.It got finally released 14 years after, in that precious 1994 special cd box with rarities.'Kisses of fire'(the Abba in Switserland show version)/'On and on and on' next ones.Oh and you gotta revisit THAT'S ME along with Marissa.
Your surprise was really funny, guys. But still you've not learnt that every ABBA song is unique and they are all different! This was ABBA Mariachi style. I suggest "I Have a Dream" for the ABBA Greek Sirtaki style.
Funny reaction! I think the lyric is supposed to indicate that the Sombrero guy is living a fantasy life and the singer is telling him to get on his horse so to speak, and ride off out of town. There is something odd in the third verse: I remember reading it, I think it was a rare instance that Agnetha takes over the melody in a Frida song. You definitely need to do Cassandra now, it was a Sombrero reconstruction, after the group discarded Sombrero as not good enough.
I'm glad that 'Sombrero' was kept off the 'Super Trouper' album, but even though it's not an ABBAsolute favourite, it's still a very enjoyable listen with a great backing track, and fabulous Frida vocals. It's definitely not their weirdest song; I'd give that to 'Elaine' or 'I'm A Marionette.'
Not one of my favourite ABBA songs, but it's still more than listenable to, and Frida sings it very well .. As you're both aware by now, they weren't afraid to try lots of various styles and take a few risks along their way .. BTW :- I actually quite like "Tropical Loveland" .. It also has nostalgic memories for me, seeing as it was one of the songs ABBA performed in a TV special here in Australia when I was in my teens.
What I like about this song is that it is a very good example of how Benny and Björn build up a song adding more and more Layers from Verse to verse. Thanks for your reaction. Why not react to: Me and I ?
There are some chords and musical ideas shared with "Cassandra", which I suspect was written around the same time. Play them back to back and you'll see why. The rhythem/time signature is similar for a start.
LOL, fun reaction ! Bjorn has said a lot of times when writing lyrics for Benny's music he visualize it like he was watching a movie. I love the flava' of this tune, I visualize an old black n white Spanish western film and gets me in the mood for margaritas n enchiladas.
Actually- this was supposed to be on Super Trouper until that title track was recorded and it got the boot. Just to state the facts. Love the vocals on this!
The only thing like a reason, I could think of, for the existence of this song is... that B&B set themselves into catering for that specific audience, say the ones who would already enjoy listening jotas and paso-dobles, and stretch it to encompass those other audiences that enjoy schlager and folk/world music of the time, together with good sections of pop and current sounds... An exercise similar in scope but rather different in execution to what they started and completed at the cases of Fernando, Chiquitita and I Have a Dream. Then, the rest of musicians and band joined in, while still there was some hope that the efforts would turn it into something surprising and good, as had happened many times before. Let's remember that at that time there were a few very popular songs (in the whole Europe) like "El Lute" by Boney M, songs that proved that such mixed-styles compositions could be widely come to be appreciated... However, as it is, the almost untreated keyboard solo parts and the lyrics present, resemble quite much other demos in similar timbres at the former case, and in cheesiness at the later, so its easy to conclude that although "Put On your While Sombrero" appears to be a finished song, it most likely isn't. Actually being a rather completer demo than the usual, that probably at the last time they decided wasn't accomplished or taking nowhere. They felt it could not be bettered later (not without large modifications), up to a point to leave it completely aside. ///In my view, this is one of the very few (if other case exist) demo/unreleased ABBA songs that I don't enjoy. Never did. And nope, it is not because of the strong connection with my Spanish heritage (I do like some of their other Spaniard forays), but because of the aspects already detailed above. Also Yes! Frida vocal performance is outstanding here, very hard to ague otherwise.
@German Morawski I requested it specifically for FRIDA’s vocal. Because it has some vibrato that did not make it into CASSANDRA. I only recently discovered it. Somehow it slipped through my ABBA catalog.
Yeah it's a vibe. it really builds and is quite a joy by the end. You really get involved with it. Benny and Bjorn always had fun writing i think and yes sometimes about random things.
Does anyone notice the key changes? C to G, G then back to C in last verse. Again, such a clever ABBA song. Crazy and amazing at once. I love it. Silly but delivered so seriously.
Ainda bem que foi lançado, mesmo tarde, pois vocês não fazem ideia de como eu gosto dessa música. Chego a trabalhar embalado com essa música na cabeça!
"Put on your white sombrero" I think it's good, but not much more 6 or 7 pts in my opinion the best part is tge kast verse with Frida & Agnetha together it's a little better than Happy "Hawaii" but I prefer "Tropical Loveland" anyway, three different songs
Covered by Belgian singer Dana Winner, the song features an imperious Frida showcasing her beautiful voice. Rather than making fun of the title you’d do better to listen to the lyrics which explains how she’s telling her fella to get lost as in “Put on your white sombrero and get lost”. Obviously its a synth intro but Dana Winners version features a Mexican troupe on trumpets. ABBA were a very versatile group and put out Spanish language versions of many of their songs so as someone else commented this track would have appealed to their wider audience.
Wasn’t released at the time of the album. This was a demo that was shelved and only released years later. Abba would often use nonsense or half-baked lyrics until they were sure they were going to use the song. Have you reacted to The Name of the Game yet? I can’t remember - great song.
The song was originally planned as an opener and title for the "super trouper" album. shortly before the album was finished, "sombrero" was replaced by "super trouper". I find it interesting that Agnetha and Frida sing very high and the song as a whole is very unusual. First as an album opener and then straight into the archive is a sharp drop from "album opener quality" to "archive". thanks
They reused the arrangement of White Sombrero (yes,it has it's own Wikipedia entry) for Cassandra so it would be great if they reacted to Cassandra straight after this one.
Me and i ,should lasf or cry ,on AND on..., las presentaciones en público no puedo creer q no reaccionaron y solo escucharon los audios ejemplo "so long" se perdieron los bailes de frida
There are lots of videos in the net that deal with the backing tracks of Abba songs and their hidden harmonies some of them aren't audible at once.Well you guys can't imagine how much haaard work and beauty are hidden underneath.Its emotional to discover all those marvelous secret details of an ABBA song under construction time.
this is a beautiful song theire is nothing wrong with this song. beautiful all theire songs are great. to young chiildren sitting in a car make fun of it. who cares what do they no. i love it. these two sitting in the car dont no nothing about it. lol. lol
In order to judge this song appropriately, one should deal a little more with the lyrics. Music and lyrics complement each other in a wonderful way. Yes, it's a breakup song, but more of an ironic one. The woman describes her former lover as "caballero" - Spanish for knight or a knight in WHITE armor. Unfortunately, a knight who is not endowed with knightly virtues. He's too self-absorbed for that, too narcissistic. His self-image is shaped by toxic masculinity. He copied his ideal of masculinity from old western films. He can't stand a strong woman standing up to him. So she suggests that they compete against each other in a showdown to find out who is the stronger one. Or he should look for a "sweet señorita" who doesn't dare contradict him and can live with his emotional coldness. Not a man a modern woman would endure by her side. The ironic undertone is reinforced by the music. The somewhat theatrical arrangement underlines the meaning of the text. You might not recognize the underlying humor of this song on first hearing. But it's there if you listen closely.
This must be a B-side because I have the entire catalog and had to search for the song because I’ve never heard of it. I’m glad you uncovered it though and I discovered it on one of their compilation albums. Not for me, but it is a nice curiosity.
Like nearly all of ABBA's songs, the basic melody of this was borne from Benny's piano and maybe Bjorn strumming acoustic guitar alongside. That melody suggested a 'Western/Latino' feeling so Bjorn came up with the lyrics and theme. At some point, they likely thought a song that wouldn't be out of place on a 'Western' movie soundtrack would jar on the 'Super Trouper' album. So it was left off and they eventually reworked it to become 'Cassandra'. This still doesn't feel quite finished and I wish they had used real Mariachi band instruments instead of synths. But the singing is stellar and full of passion while telling her cowboy ex-lover to get on his horse and take a hike.
Hi Tyler and Melissa! You have to watch the video made by RJS Creative Adventures to understand the whole video, and you get a completely different picture a man with vi sombrero !! The video is very very good I promise! And to all your other attempts to see it 🙏
May be you are still missing some of the most iconic abba song, like Thank you for the music, Chiquita, Happy new year. And don't forget also Kisses of fire, On and on and on, Lovelight, Cassandra, etc...
we’ve actually listened to chiquitita! but marissa has wanted us to listen to some lesser known ones as well just to have some variety! :) we’ll hit more popular/iconic ones soon!
Can you pleeeeease react to «rock me» whit Bjørn as a lead singer.. you will love it for suuuure 😊 come on now, I have asked for this soooo many times now 🙏😄
Very sarcastic. You've become very sarcastic about ABBA in many reactions. And you really don't understand ABBA and their theatrical aspect and their folk inspiration. You allow yourself all sorts of emotions in your reactions, which are over the top and it's okay they come from your own internal life. Still you have some resistance to understanding certain qualities from ABBA and Benny's musical concepts, which inspire the lyrics. It's all about musical ideas and folk stories like the song, THE PIPER.
Sombrero was replaced by Super Trouper as the last recorded song for the Super trouper album. The backing track has the feel of a temp track and I would think if they kept working on it, it could have turned into something different. The synths are a bit overbearing. Aspects of it transferred over to Cassandra sometime later . The melody is different but its structure is similar. It stayed in the vaults for a good decade or so before adding it to subsequent re-releases of Super Trouper as an extra. We have to find you a different track to replace Tropical Loveland as a low point. Try Two For The Price Of One. It's the pits.
It’s an odd song with a beautiful melody and some of ABBA’s best harmonies. However, the lyrics and production are subpar, so I agree with their decision to reject it if favor of the polished glam of Super Trouper
it's a nice song, but still i always absolutely agree with B&B decision to leave one or another song out... none of the unreleased songs that were in one or the other way released after their break started by the end of 1982 really stuck me... none. I though must admit that Just Like That is the exception to the rule. With this one I love the vocals but not the length of the song with long intro and in general the arrangement. Don't know why... I'm not a fan of Andante Andante and Cassandra neither... though i usually prefer Frida's solo vocals over Agnetha's... but those songs are imo to easy or too much spanish folk...
I know it's show but you exagerated pretty unnecessarily. This song isn't about sombrero but an ending love. I don't know if you noticed there while you did antics. Anyway, this song was abandoned for many years.
My tip: sometimes it's a narrow path between spontanous fun reaction and ridiculousness. Stop with ABBA: you have almost done the most important songs of ABBA (perhaps all official videos) except .... but this an other THING. Honest I say thank for your well done often entertaining reactions, specially for you as the young generations, what interested me, to my pleasure. Sometimes it's hard to find the right time to stop?!? If you want go on do as Terry suggested Cassandra (then you can keep track Andante-Put-Cas- ...) or the 3'-tracks from the first two album as ABBA experimented with different music styles - a pure matter of taste which are known to be different. . Weired or confused or surprised?!? The members solo and ABBA started in TV shows in TV and the Swedish Midsummer festivals - a hard school for the later successful versatile concerts especially 77+79+80.
Stop with ABBA? Why? Why always only the "important" songs? Why shouldn't the reactors react also to the lesser known songs? Everybody has a different meaning of which song is important and for me there are a lot of great songs missing. Luckily they want to react to all ABBA songs and that's good.
well try LISTENING to it instead of talking over it ... and ... as usual with ABBA the highlight is coming ...........

Can you imagine, that song was supposed to be on the album "Super Trouper", but they skipped it as they needed a another single hit song after "The winner takes it all". So they wrote the single "Super Trouper" and put it on the album instead of "Put on your white sombrero", which has never been published back then. You know why now.
One of my fav ABBA songs ever!! I totally feel like im in Mexico when i listen to this!
@@swifty8503 Yo digo siempre lo mismo .Es una lastima que no la pusieran ya de entrada en SuperTrooper y quebno hicieran un video en vivo

I'm a big fan of Greek mythology and "Cassandra" is a great story song.

I love this song..one of The best! Fridas voice is amazing !
Love this song also. Frida's lead is great but when Agnetha joins her, quite late in the song, wow!

For a future reaction, you will like "On and On and On". Just be sure to find the full length version about 4:16 long including the extra verse.

React to On and On and On, off the same album Super Trouper. It's a vibe and a total banger! Nice to see of u two having fun and laugh 😂
Very mexican/spanish inspired song by ABBA here...excellent,purely excellent use of the keyboards/synths here...its magnificent..
My mama said, Gonna sing you my love song, Hey Hey Helen - 3 great older songs
I love the last verse when Agnetha sings too, totally elevates the song for me. You should give I Am The City a listen
I love, when sings only Anni-Frid!!! It is so beautiful!!!
Right , Cassandra HAS to be your next ABBA reaction , same era as this one . The melody to Put On Your White Sombrero is fine , good job Benny lol.
In 1980 ABBA recorded their greatest hits in Spanish. You should react to one of those songs.
What I like about this song is that it is a very good example of how Benny and Björn build up a song adding more and more Layers from Verse to verse. Thanks for your reaction.

It stayed in the vaults for a good decade or so before adding it to subsequent re-releases of Super Trouper as an extra.
We have to find you a different track to replace Tropical Loveland as a low point.
Try Two For The Price Of One. It's the pits.
Is this an original ABBA song?
Perhaps you should READ the lyrics to EVERYTHING YOU REACT TO before you react. Especially before you MOCK a song.
Tyler,what does the title name have to do with the quality of the song? By the way,its one of their least known songs,but a real pearl in my view...
It’s an odd song with a beautiful melody and some of ABBA’s best harmonies. However, the lyrics and production are subpar, so I agree with their decision to reject it if favor of the polished glam of Super Trouper
it's a nice song, but still i always absolutely agree with B&B decision to leave one or another song out... none of the unreleased songs that were in one or the other way released after their break started by the end of 1982 really stuck me... none. I though must admit that Just Like That is the exception to the rule. With this one I love the vocals but not the length of the song with long intro and in general the arrangement. Don't know why... I'm not a fan of Andante Andante and Cassandra neither... though i usually prefer Frida's solo vocals over Agnetha's... but those songs are imo to easy or too much spanish folk...
I think you will like there songs Kisses Of Fire, Tiger ,On And On And on, ,and Elain much more than this. There more disco like.
HORROR REACTION..........
I know it's show but you exagerated pretty unnecessarily. This song isn't about sombrero but an ending love. I don't know if you noticed there while you did antics.
Anyway, this song was abandoned for many years.
My tip: sometimes it's a narrow path between spontanous fun reaction and ridiculousness. Stop with ABBA: you have almost done the most important songs of ABBA (perhaps all official videos) except .... but this an other THING.
Honest I say thank for your well done often entertaining reactions, specially for you as the young generations, what interested me, to my pleasure. Sometimes it's hard to find the right time to stop?!?
If you want go on do as Terry suggested Cassandra (then you can keep track Andante-Put-Cas- ...) or the 3'-tracks from the first two album as ABBA experimented with different music styles - a pure matter of taste which are known to be different. .
Weired or confused or surprised?!? The members solo and ABBA started in TV shows in TV and the Swedish Midsummer festivals - a hard school for the later successful versatile concerts especially 77+79+80.
Stop with ABBA? Why? Why always only the "important" songs? Why shouldn't the reactors react also to the lesser known songs? Everybody has a different meaning of which song is important and for me there are a lot of great songs missing. Luckily they want to react to all ABBA songs and that's good.
Big time mocking of macho men, not surprisingly settled in an acoustic atmosphere of a Zorro-movie.
React to change or I don’t talk or she want Chanel by NBAYoungBoy please
well try LISTENING to it instead of talking over it ... and ... as usual with ABBA the highlight is coming ...........
Can you imagine, that song was supposed to be on the album "Super Trouper", but they skipped it as they needed a another single hit song after "The winner takes it all". So they wrote the single "Super Trouper" and put it on the album instead of "Put on your white sombrero", which has never been published back then. You know why now.
Learn more music and read more before commenting and reacting on ABBA please.
When Agnetha comes in (last chorus) with her high pitched vocals...she makes the song come alive
The song is alive from the first second. Finally stop this Frida bashing. Troll!
Frida is the best vocalist!!! Agneta only back vocal!
you need to make reactions from other bands, not only abba
They do .. Go to their channel and check their Videos list and Playlists
They do.
ABBA is enought. Skip other bands and live good with ABBA
