To the lady who said it's a rip-off of Fernando, Fernando was released in 1976. Angela was released in 1969. But I see what you mean they are quite similar.
if they cant be arsed by singing then they are lazy and yes fake. Face Facts, if a singer can pend time composing songs then why cant they actually SING the song? Go on keep arguing with me over this!! @@pastorbri
@@pastorbri ABBA was formed in 1972, but the song “Fernando” was first released on Anni-Frid Lyngstad’s 1975 album “Frida ensam.” In 1976 alone, the single “Fernando” sold six million copies… You can’t blame BOM for wanting to cash in on the sound that was sweeping radio airwaves not only in Europe but all over the world. Other groups were doing the same thing. Yes, Brotherhood of Man started in 1969, three years before ABBA. But the song in question here is “Angelo” which was released in June 1977, on the BOM “Images” album. “This album saw the group adopt a more pop and in particular, ABBA-like sound, which was often commented on in the media at the time. Contemporary reviews of the album drew on the comparison, with Brotherhood of Man usually being seen as inferior.” - Wiki… If you listen to the two songs, one right after the other, first “Fernando” and then “Angelo” and you don’t believe BOM copied the sound, the style and the musical symmetry of “Fernando” you may want to schedule an appointment with an audiologist. It’s been said that quite a few people at the time, upon hearing the song for the first time, assumed that “Angelo” was a new ABBA single-it’s THAT close.

Yes, that peoples says for this group. They Washington together in one TV program And moderátor ask then for Authors. But everyone od this group have own originally songs. ABBA a d Brotherhood of men Washington componed the same music style!!
@@JohnleslieBlackburn-ps2nr how good is a matter of personal opinion. I like both songs but to me Fernando stands out because of the lead vocal from Frida. I’m not sure what your source is as far as release dates, however, based on the UK charts, “Fernando” hit #1 in 1976 and “Angelo” hit #1 in 1977.
Well, that's bollocks considering this song came out in 1977 and Abba had been going for quite a few years by then AND had also released Fernando which this song is very clearly a cash in on. Prove me wrong.
@@snakedriver The Video being published in 77 doesn’t change the fact that the song existed in 1969 and predates the band Abba a few years. The song existed on a record in 69 and was released as a single later in 77’

@@JELL0521 That's nonsense. The group was founded in 69 and they had the hit "United we stand" same year, but with different members. The writers of "Angelo" hadn't even met at that time.

Long ago,
High on a mountain in Mexico
Lived a young shepherd boy, Angelo
Who met a young girl and he loved her so
Rich was she,
Came from a very high family,
Angelo knew it could never be,
They ran away to their destiny
Running away together
Running away forever
Angelo
Running away from danger
Hiding from every stranger
Angelo
They knew it wasn't wrong
They found a love so strong
They took their lives at night
And in the morning light
They found them on the sand
They saw them lying there, hand-in-hand

A hit in Mexico in 1977
Happy mothers day to all mother's in the worlds

1993
I love my angelo..❤

Angelo was 1977.
Angelo was a hit in 1978!!
And YES - it sound s like „Fernando“.
The group started in 1969 but the song was from 1977.
Make Your Mind Up !
Just heard this on the radio and thought it was an ABBA song I wasn’t familiar with. They definitely sound like ABBA. Good song.
And look like ABBA😂😂
Im glad its not just me - these gurls sound exactly like ABBA. If only gurls sang that way today with that certian sound.
Running away together Angelo
Lovely song
Gotta admit I loved this song, but it’s definitely kisses for me that’s my favourite! I don’t care who knows.🤪
Such a sad song 😢xx
Ángelo my son ❤
very nice
The man had 3 , number one hits in the UK and Europe, imitation of AbbA or not, takes me back to happier days.

ABBA at home
I diddt realise tjhis was about suicide until i wa an adult
Bargain basement version ABBA singing a cheap immitation of Fernando
Fernando if it was sung by families who worked down the mines. Just kidding. This is probably better than Fernando.
Yeah... Brotherhood of Mabba... I mean... yeah...
singing without a microphone????
Probably dubbing.
