I Am The City, You Owe Me One, Just Like That, Cassandra, Under Attack & The Day Before You Came were recorded in 1982 during the sessions for their unfinished 9th album.
They are not considered part of the "The Visitors"-album because real fans talk about the original albums. The 1982 tracks have absolutely nothting to do with The Visitors.@@AbbaVideosRUclips
That album would be Just like that Elaine I am the city You owe me one Another me another you Under attack The day before you came Cassandra Story of a girl Wasp
In my opinion The Visitors is one of the best pop albums ever released. And if some of these out takes would have made it to the album making it into a double album it would have been the absolute best of ALL.
Yes, I think it was their greatest achievement too. And I just can't escape the incredible fact that the masterpiece "The day before you came", my favourite Abba track if I have to pick one, was the last song they ever recorded - before Voyage 40 years later that is!
I would like to know what treasures are still in the drawers that haven't been published yet, but that also shows what incredible geniuses they are. Compared to today, this is a completely different level
I had heard the Angel Passing Through My Room versions before but had not heard the others, and now can't get Hovas Vittne out of my head (I don't speak a lick of Swedish). I am also fascinated with this rough draft of Two For The Price of One, a song I barely tolerated on the Visitors album. But this rendition has more relevance and interest to me..."Sometimes I wished I had a ... knife." Woah. I could also discern Benny's singing here. I always thought he was faking it in the live performances with the mic so far from him and it looked like he was just phoning it in, but he really sings. Also TFTPOO (nice initials) sounds a little like an incel dude is singing it. I remain under impressed with Just Like That. Under Attack sounds really cool in this version. Thanks for posting this.
@@AbbaVideosRUclips Well... Frida & Agnetha's singing is so passionate and playful that I'm not sure it would be the same in English. I am in Quebec and one time when listening on the radio, heard a song in French that was so good and pretty that I needed to know who had sung it. Turns out it was Celine Dion. Who has a great voice, but not one I go out of my way to listen to. Different in her native tongue!
Hovas Vittne was especially made and sang for 50th Stikkans Birthday. And those 12 inch LPs were given to the guest's attending the party. So very limited. Tiveshambo was written by Stikkan in the early years (not for Abba).
"Hovas vittne" is a smash hit! What an awesome tune. Imagine if it were released as an official ABBA song. 👌 "Tivedshambo" was actually composed by Stikkan Anderson, at least he is credited for it.
All the "love" for "Just Like That" over the years - what about the criminally under appreciated "Givin' A Little More"? Crying out for a full version!!!!!!!!
Some interesting out takes here although Just Like That and Under Attack weren't even writen during the recording of The Visitors and hail from the final original ABBA year of 1982.
It is a pity I showed that video to family and friends and they were amazed with how much was buried in the ABBA songs. Could you make the videos available on other platform like Facebook or Dailymotion?@@AbbaVideosRUclips
Well said ,ABBA was incredible with Music in every way. We were Blessed to experience and enjoy their feel good Music of Love and joy to the World. ❤@@juvenalcarvalho6728
Another Morning is probably the closest we normal humans will get to what Frida sounded live and direct without a lot of production, rehearsals, just singing a first test.
Yes and it was wonderful! I wish we had more like that, I thought they did over produce at times when the ladies' voices were good enough without all that messing about!
ABBA me trae tantos recuerdos de mi mamá, ella escuchaba todas las versiones en español en especial Chiquitita ❤❤❤. Aqui cantan "Se me está escapando" en español 🇨🇱🇨🇱🇨🇱
The tune @ 5:08 as well as for the World Ice Hockey Championships it was also the theme tune for Dick Cavett Meets ABBA which was filmed in April 1981.
How can 2 songs written for the album AFTER this one be FROM "The Visitors" sessions, and why isn't 'Should I Laugh Or Cry' here, not least when they didn't even put it on the album? Cos I sure do!
Pity that Two For The Price Of One didn’t stay an outtake… it’s definitely the low point of the album. Should I Laugh Or Cry should have been on the original album (it ended up being the B side of One Of Us) but that would have given Frida one more song than Agnetha, so I’d say that’s why Björn got the album track.
@@AbbaVideosRUclipsOh well, each to their own!.. I usually just skip it because I find it jarring. Should I... fits in perfectly after The Visitors. It's interesting on Voyage that they didn't worry about Frida having the first three in a row.
Agree, definately think Should I Laugh Or Cry should’ve been on The Visitors album instead of Two For The Price Of One, fitting in with it’s dark, more mature theme..
I Am The City, You Owe Me One, Just Like That, Cassandra, Under Attack & The Day Before You Came were recorded in 1982 during the sessions for their unfinished 9th album.
True! They are considered part of the 'The Visitors' album since the deluxe version was released!

They were so close to finishing that album
@@mgbchoralmusic6443yes unfortunately the demo tapes were stolen from Bjorn's car. Some songs were offered to other projects.
That album would be
Just like that

So impressive!
Wow like an Angel passed through my Room,die Version 1 von Frida ist bezaubernd.❤️
So good!
Absolutely wonderful ❤
❤I love the disco version of like an angel passing through my room.❤

Today they're STILL geniuses.

I loved your comment! Glad you enjoyed the video!
Hovas Vittne has me GAGGED. It feels like Chess meets a forgotten Arrival Era B-Side. I love it.
They should have done an english version!

What a wonderful little idea. For me, anything like this is extremely interesting to hear. 😄
Thanks, enjoy!
Love Hovas Vittne and Tivedshambo ❤❤❤❤
I wish Hovas Vittne had been released with english lyrics as an Abba song!!
"Hovas vittne" is a smash hit! What an awesome tune. Imagine if it were released as an official ABBA song. 👌
"Tivedshambo" was actually composed by Stikkan Anderson, at least he is credited for it.
It sounds like they used snippets of Hovas Vittne in Merano (from Chess)!
Thank you for sharing these rarities! I feel like I managed to send myself back to 1981 joining ABBA at the recording studio... Excited.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Love these out takes, to hear the workings before the finished polished songs.....would love to have all these on vinyl record
At least you have them here!
All the "love" for "Just Like That" over the years - what about the criminally under appreciated "Givin' A Little More"? Crying out for a full version!!!!!!!!
That song is really catchy!!
@@AbbaVideosRUclips Agree, I also imagine how the song would sound with Agnetha's high harmony, while Frida is the lead singer.
So sad that the girls didn't record it!
It doesn't work for me! I prefer "Just like that "
Some interesting out takes here although Just Like That and Under Attack weren't even writen during the recording of The Visitors and hail from the final original ABBA year of 1982.
That's right! When I say 'The Visitors' I'm referring to that era, not really to the album. Nice outtakes indeed!
This is wonderful
I love their music!
Wooowwww excelente ❤️🙌 gracias, thank you
Saludos 🤗
Just like that is just more than like that. It s just one of the best song of Abba.
Great to see you back! Hoping the channel does not get nerfed this time... also hoping for the harmonies and hidden vocals videos to be back!!!
Thank you!! Sadly the harmonies and hidden vocals videos can not be uploaded on RUclips, what a pity!
It is a pity I showed that video to family and friends and they were amazed with how much was buried in the ABBA songs. Could you make the videos available on other platform like Facebook or Dailymotion?@@AbbaVideosRUclips
For the moment I have no plans on opening other social media. However, if you want those videos I could send them to you via e-mail!
Tudo relacionado ao ABBA é maravilhoso , ficamos honrado em houvir , parabéns pela postagem .
Well said ,ABBA was incredible with Music in every way. We were Blessed to experience and enjoy their feel good Music of Love and joy to the World. ❤@@juvenalcarvalho6728
Nationalsång = Anthem (instrumental). Wonderful!
That's it!
Another Morning is probably the closest we normal humans will get to what Frida sounded live and direct without a lot of production, rehearsals, just singing a first test.
Absolutely!
Yes and it was wonderful! I wish we had more like that, I thought they did over produce at times when the ladies' voices were good enough without all that messing about!
I swear I could listen to Frida sing for days. ❤
I would LOVE another morning with Frida. Or Angetha. Or both of them.
@@Scottsteaux63me toooooo
Wonderful🙂
ABBA me trae tantos recuerdos de mi mamá, ella escuchaba todas las versiones en español en especial Chiquitita ❤❤❤. Aqui cantan "Se me está escapando" en español 🇨🇱🇨🇱🇨🇱
Qué bonito!
Omg. This is so rare! ❤
It is! I love this era!
@@AbbaVideosRUclips I totally agree. 80-81 they peaked
The tune @ 5:08 as well as for the World Ice Hockey Championships it was also the theme tune for Dick Cavett Meets ABBA which was filmed in April 1981.
i had a good laugh at the original lyrics of two for the price of one.Very funny
Thanks for posting this ! ❤
I do regret I sold my copy of Hovas Vittne😢 I am the seeker and Burning my bridges was also in 81.
Tivedshambo is a trad.
Thank you for this post❤
A copy of Hovas Vittne, how rare!!
@@AbbaVideosRUclips I still have Sång till Görel though. Are you a collector too?
Sadly I'm not, but I would love it!
Burning My Bridges was recorded in 1980 during the sessions for the Super Trouper album
Yes!
Ah, thank you 😊
26:12 Is a fantastic version of this track.
The piano is sublime. It should have been incorporated in to the final mix.
That version is beautiful 😍
Omg, anyone know when / how was all this released? I thought I'd heard all of ABBA's outtakes but this is all new to me! and sounds incredible.❤
How can 2 songs written for the album AFTER this one be FROM "The Visitors" sessions, and why isn't 'Should I Laugh Or Cry' here, not least when they didn't even put it on the album? Cos I sure do!
ABBAにとって、最後のアルバムが、最高傑作だった。おそらく、世に出てない未発表曲が、ジャラジャラあると思う。ビシターズは、2枚組アルバムとして、出して欲しかった。
Samme stil som da de var "Festfolket"😍
👍👍👍❤
Can you please try to search the day before you came and s.o.s demos?
Pity that Two For The Price Of One didn’t stay an outtake… it’s definitely the low point of the album. Should I Laugh Or Cry should have been on the original album (it ended up being the B side of One Of Us) but that would have given Frida one more song than Agnetha, so I’d say that’s why Björn got the album track.
I could not agree more! Should I Laugh or Cry is so much better in every way.
I think Should I Laugh Or Cry fits the album better, but I love Two For The Price Of One as well!
@@AbbaVideosRUclipsOh well, each to their own!.. I usually just skip it because I find it jarring. Should I... fits in perfectly after The Visitors. It's interesting on Voyage that they didn't worry about Frida having the first three in a row.
Agree, definately think Should I Laugh Or Cry should’ve been on The Visitors album instead of Two For The Price Of One, fitting in with it’s dark, more mature theme..
Frida had one more lead on the previous album, Super Trouper, so it wasn't always 50/50.
The first 4 songs have nothing to do with the "The Visitors" recording sessions, as they were recorded for other purposes.
I know, but were recorded during that era, that's why they're here!
Nationalsång si fue grabada para el álbum pero fue desechada
