Quite a voyage indeed! I've done two more songs and WOW I had no idea those songs were from this amazing group! This is one of those times I'm happy I've only scratched the surface, cheers! 🍻
ABBA is acronim with initials of Their first names, two swedish couples: Agnetha (blonde singer) & Björn (guitarist songwriter) Benny (pianist songwriter) & Anni Frid 'Frida' (brunette singer) both couples separated before the break up of the group "The winner takes it all" (1980) is one of the Best Songs by ABBA and the Most sad and emotional too The best lyrics and the greatest performing with the amazing Interpretation of the lead singer The lyrics is a fiction, it is not about Their real life, although it is obviously influenced by Their own experiences and the realization of the legal divorce in the middle of 1980, even though They were no longer a couple or lived together more than a year and half ago, at the end of 1978 I suggest to see the next single in the same album "Super Trouper" with the brunette singer Frida in lead voice ABBA have more than 20 worldwide hits between 1972/1982: Waterloo, Fernando, Dancing Queen, Take a chance on me, Chiquitita All these songs are in your album recopilation GOLD (1992) that have much more than 1.100 weeks at Top 100 in UK Official Charts (first group singer or artist to do it) And return in 2021 (after almost 40 years) with a new album Voyage and new concerts in Londin UK since May 2022 (with ABBAtars of themselfes and a live band)
Abba is soul soothing for shure! All their tracks are (not only their 22+world hits!) And all completely different. No band is so versatile on that upper level of pop
Even though I like going into a reaction blind, I can see how context could actually elevate a reaction and not hinder it. Sucks because I never know which is which until AFTER the reaction :/
Agnetha (blonde) A Björn (cleanshaven) B Benny (beard) B Anni-frid (brunette) A "The Winner Takes It All" (1980) *the two girls used to alternate lead vocals; or sing in harmony
They are a band of 4 members, two males and two females and they are two married couples that ended in divorce. "ABBA" is an acronym formed from the first letters of each group member's first name: Agnetha, Björn, Benny, Anni-Frid
ABBA, which is an acronym of the 4 members Agnetha, Björn, Benny and Anni-Frid, were super big in 70s and 80s and still suuuuuuperbig today. Globally! They split up 1982. All 4 of them are billionaires today. When you talked about AI in the beginning of the video, it made me think of ABBA Voyage which is an avatar show with them in London. Running for years now. Really looking forward to your reaction to Tommy's version!
ABBA was my childhood's music. I only learned to adore them when the band was long defunct and there was the ABBA gold CD and tape for my my trips for the artillery NCO school. Listening to the singers on repeat 5 hours there and back made me a fan.
I may be bias because I'm Swedish and grew up alongside ABBA, but I can't find anyone getting close to their greatness in music. I remember working as a painter at CERN, we painted a staircase and corridors in a office building. We had a stereo playing Abba songs real loud in the staircase, and I was sure we were going to get complains about it was to loud. But guess what, the people in the offices came out and requested ABBA songs for us to play!
It is a band not only one singer. Also there were 2 couples inside the band. This song was written by her husband (the guy without beard) after they separated.
ABBA - is made of the 1st letter of all 4 band members' 1st names: Agnetha (pronounced: a-ni-e-ta), Benny, Bjorn and Ani-frid (also known as Frida). Initially it was just the 2 guys, then each 1 of them met 1 of the girls and they formed ABBA. In 1974 they represented Sweden, in the Eurovision song contest, with the song "Waterloo" - AND WON! Since 1974 they shot to world fame and stardom and had many many hits. The band broke up in late 1981 or early 1982. This song is actually one of their latest hits, if im not mistaken, from their last album.
Talk all you want. It is your reaction. ABBA is Sweden's most famous music act of all time. A lot of their songs have sad lyrics but upbeat melodies. Although they had their heyday in the 1970's, their music is still loved today and have appeared in multiple movies and TV-shows and have been covered or sampled by many modern artists. For example, Madonna sampled part of their their song Gimme Gimme Gimme (A Man After Midnight) in her 2005 song Hung Up.
I wish I knew the context before I heard the song but I love going into a reaction COMPLETELY BLIND 😄 I guess some people didn't like that lol cheers! 🍻
The singer is Agnetha (Ann-Yay-Ta) Faltskog - and the groupnis ABBA - an acronym for tbe 4 members: Agnetha - blonde lead Singer Benny - Piano Player Bjorn - Guitar Annifrid - (Frida) Red Head Lead Singer ABBA is THE GREATEST group of all time. Please do a deep dive. Some recommended songs to start with: Fernando; SOS; Dancing Queen; Mamma Mia; Knowing me Knowing You; When All is Said and Done; Super Trouper. They were 2 couples. Agnetha and Frida have the most beautiful voices ever. ABBA is Sweden's gift to the world.
Her name is Agnetha (pronounced Ann YET ah) Faltskog and she is one of the four members of the group ABBA. She was married to the blond guy in the group (Bjorn Ulvaeus). They divorced before this song was released. Bjorn wrote the song but says it was not about their breakup. This song was their last top 10 hit and was released in 1980.
@@Clouded_Reactions, it is likely that Bjorn and Benny would have agreed, but less sure about Frida who had lost her daughter and her husband Prince Reuss that same year, And Agnetha reportedly said that 70 concerts was too much for her, it is known the story where there was very big turbulence in their jet during the aborted US tour after the crisis of Agnetha who has since refused to fly. It's unclear if she flew back for the premiere of, ABBA VOYAGE in London in 2021.
ABBA was my childhood’s favorite band. They won the eurovision songcontest in1974 with Waterloo. And their music are still on my playlist today. The movie Mamma mia from 2008, with Meryl Streep, the songs there are all from ABBA. I still love that movie 😀🇸🇪
Once you start going down the ABBA rabbit hole you'll realise they had hit after hit after hit. Next song to check out from them: What's the Name of the Game
Björn and this beautiful lady was married but was going or had gone through divorce but he wanted Agneta to sing it. Frida and Benny were also married, but now divorced. Agneta, Björn, Benny AnniFrid. Now listen to Tommy Johanssons cover of this song! 🇸🇪
Uh abba is 4 members, all u see in the video ... and yes they were married in band lol..the guys make the music the girls sing.. Oh you want a story song?! A proper one?? Helen Sjöholm - Du måste finnas. From Kristina från Duvemåla. It is a play that also got to Broadway. Please find this song, there is videos with captions..
This song is about Agnethas divorce with Bjorn, one of the B:s in Abba. Fact is, he actually wrote the lyrics, and asked her to sing them.. its pretty brutal. One can easily imageine the mood in the studio. You could probably cut it with a knife.
There are plenty of amizingly good Swedish singers indeed. Being a Swede myself, I think part of the explanation is that it´s such a secular society that music has come to fill a profound spiritual role in society. You may want to look up names like Helen Sjöholm "Du måste finnas"(make sure to get the version with English subtitles), one of the best vocal performances any categorie, Jussi Björling (arguable the best opera tenor ever), Birgit Nilsson, opera soprano, Dirty Loops, Ted Gärdestad, Laleh, Tityo, Neneh Cherry / 7 seconds/, Eagle-Eye Cherry, Lisa Nilsson, Barbro Hörberg, Molly Sandén ("Husavik", you heard it on the Academy Awards gala a couple of years ago, Björn Skifs (Hooked on a feeling), Ola Magnell, Erik Grönwall ("I will always love you" for example), Miss Li, Roxette, Europe, Samuel Ljungblahd (gospel) Sofia Karlsson (trad.), Loreen ("Euophoria")... The list goes on. A personal favourite that has very little fame is Miranda Samuelsson who sings traditional folk songs in an amazingly simple and orignal way, being very young and living in our time.
@@Spo-Dee-O-Dee Another very beloved singer is the late Freddy Wadling who gained some international fame as a singer in the punk rockband "the Leather Nun" and ironically ended singing evangelic hymns in a very tender and intimate way. Also Peter Jöback deserves being mentioned. Musicals.
It is fascinating to see folks like you responding to songs from my youth. Songs that I couldn't escape from as I preferred punk and hardcore rather than pop / disco music. I know others have explained that ABBA is an acronym of the performers names and have no connection with the pickled herring company called Abba Seafood also from Sweden. BTW don't worry about stopping the videos you are a reaction channel not a DJ channel. Someone whose reaction videos I enjoy makes the point of saying: "I am a reaction channel if you want to hear the original uninterrupted then go and watch the original the link is in the description"
I can only imagine how I'll be when I'm older and heading the new youth talk about songs from my time, and they genuinely LIKE IT! You can almost feel the gratitude as if you're the band themselves.. And that's true, I just need to stop attempting to please the masses and stick to only pleasing my base ❤️
Ok, FYI, Nigthwish (the group) is from Finland. Floor (Hannes' wife) is originally from the Netherlands. I do believe she's still living in Sweden, so Sweden might very well be a musical maestro magnet... if Dan Vasc moves here we'll know for sure 🤣 Anni-Frid (Frida), the non-blonde from ABBA was actually born in Norway... so she's also a gained talent 😎 Also... Björn rhymes with earn Agneta, (often called Anna) sounds like Ah-ng-Neta (the g is like "ng" and almost completely silent)
I'm telling you, Sweden might as well adopt Dan and the rest of them 😂 Sweden has almost mastered the art of vocals! P.s. sorry I haven't responded, there's a lot to get to but im dedicating this day to respond to as much as i can so you'll see me respond to many of your comments P.s.s. thank you for commenting A LOT even when I haven't responded 💯💯
A - Agnetha (blonde) B - Benny (bearded) B - Bjorn (w/o beard) A - AnniFrid (brunette) Agnetha once married to Bjorn and AnniFrid to Benny. But both couples divorced during the groups heyday.
I was confused about the pronunciation of her name and I chatted with a friend from Sweden. Apparently, how you say it is far removed from how it's spelled. It is a soft "Ang", then "netta." I am a huge fan, and I've been saying it wrong all of my life.
You have discovered the voice of Agnetha Faltskog the first A in ABBA. ABBA = Agnetha, Bjorn, Benny, Anni-Frid. Music written by Benny and Bjorn. Lyrics written by Agnetha's ex, Bjorn. ABBA had 19 world-wide hits, most of which are still popular today. You've got a long way to go.
You think I meant only beautiful women shouldn't frown, I'm saying NO ONE should ever frown. Everyone is going to have hard and sad times but those moments pass. It takes more muscles to frown than to smile, that's what makes the wrinkles around your mouth (not just frowning obviously) so I'm saying not to frown.
I requested you check out some ABBA way back in 2021 i think? Back when you just started covering Sabaton. Suggested you cover them for some boost in views since they were releasing their first album in 40 years along with a whole 3d concert called Abba Voyage. At least you got to them eventually 🎉 Björn and Benny has written and made a lot of music outside of Abba, like the musicals Chess and Kristina from Duvemåla. National treasure both of them. ❤ So, if you ever start covering stuff like musicals i definitely have a few suggestions. For Chess theres "Anthem" and "Endgame", both sung the best by Tommy Körberg, and i have a version uploaded to my channel that i consider the best one of the latter song. For Kristina theres Du måste finnas with Helen Sjöholm, a musical about immigrants to america and the song is about kristina screaming at god that he must be real after all shes gone through. Theres definitely more than you think when it comes to the members of abba haha
Ohhh THANK YOU for recommending them to me originally, even though I dropped the ball -___- to fix this HEINOUS mistake, I shall add these songs to my list and I'll make sure to react to them soon! Thanks for sticking around for so long, I know I thanked you before but it really means a lot. Depending on how many videos you've watched, you've given quite the amount of time to me, something you or I can never get back. I appreciate it ❤️❤️ P.s. sorry for slacking in the comments section, I'm dedicating the rest of this day to respond to all the comments I can!
I 00% agree with you that most of the music today is noise! Tommy does a stunning cover of this song! I can't wait to see your reaction to his version 😊, As for your comment about doing a reaction to the band of the wife of a Sabaton member, that would be the band Nightwish and I can not stress enough that if I were you I would avoid doing reactions to that band. They have a very toxic fanbase and you don't need the nasty and toxic comments that ALWAYS get posted
@@Spo-Dee-O-Dee They are desperate for you to only enjoy the current singer, they get very angry and nasty if a reactor does a song with either the original singer or heaven forbid the 2nd singer. As if the band is only good with the current singer. I watched as they filled a reactors comment section with pure hate filled comments because he dared to like the original singer singing a song that she recorded with the band better than the current singers version.
I just got done listening to NIGHTWISH "Bye Bye Beautiful" and I thought the singer was Floor... I hope I don't catch too much flack but I'm ready for the comments 😎
@@Clouded_Reactions The singer was Anette and trust me the vile comments will come. For me I like Anette's voice, it wasn't her fault that she had a problem singing the songs that were written for the 1st singer Tarja. Tarja is a classically trained soprano and sadly Anette isn't. They picked Anette because she sounded nothing like Tarja then expected her to sing those songs. The 2 albums she recorded with them are fantastic. Meadows of Heaven is one of my favorites
She looks sad because she is sad. The song is a divorce-song. Her ex-husband wrote it and she sang it. Maybe it worked like some sort of therapy for them - who knows?
Haha who knows indeed, I hate to have context before a reaction because I like to be totally surprised BUT I can see how context for this song would have made me appreciate the song and lyrics much more!!
It warmed my heart when you said "this is what music is". Couldn't agree more.
For me as well
This is the greatest pop group of all time and they are still as popular today as they were 50 years ago. Google, figure and enjoy the Voyage x
Quite a voyage indeed! I've done two more songs and WOW I had no idea those songs were from this amazing group! This is one of those times I'm happy I've only scratched the surface, cheers! 🍻
ABBA is acronim with initials of Their first names,
two swedish couples:
Agnetha (blonde singer) &
Björn (guitarist songwriter)
Benny (pianist songwriter) &
Anni Frid 'Frida' (brunette singer)
both couples separated before the break up of the group
"The winner takes it all" (1980)
is one of the Best Songs by ABBA
and the Most sad and emotional too
The best lyrics and the greatest performing with the amazing Interpretation of the lead singer
The lyrics is a fiction, it is not about Their real life, although it is obviously influenced by Their own experiences and the realization of the legal divorce in the middle of 1980, even though They were no longer a couple or lived together more than a year and half ago, at the end of 1978
I suggest to see the next single in the same album
"Super Trouper"
with the brunette singer Frida in lead voice
ABBA have more than 20 worldwide hits between 1972/1982:
Waterloo, Fernando, Dancing Queen,
Take a chance on me, Chiquitita
All these songs are in your album recopilation GOLD (1992) that have much more than 1.100 weeks at Top 100 in UK Official Charts (first group singer or artist to do it)
And return in 2021 (after almost 40 years)
with a new album Voyage
and new concerts in Londin UK since May 2022
(with ABBAtars of themselfes and a live band)
One of their best songs...👌
The first success from Sweden (1974).
BEST ⭐ POP ⭐ BAND ⭐ EVER!
Please more 🙏
Greetings ❤ from Chile 🇨🇱🤗👍
Woah Chile, awesome! Greetings ❤️❤️
makes me cry every time, loved it since 1980
I bet it's awesome to see a song you love pass through the ages and never gets old! This is literally a timeless classic!
ABBA,, a small band from Sweden.. only 450+miljon Albums sold .. (before new tech),, Pure Legends.. keep them coming !! :D
Abba is soul soothing for shure! All their tracks are (not only their 22+world hits!) And all completely different. No band is so versatile on that upper level of pop
КАК РАДОСТНА ЗЕМЛЯ!
You are perfect. Don’t change a thing. ABBA Forever❤❤❤
Forever and ever!! ❤️
The song was a true reaction from two of the members of Abba who were married and split up, sang with true feeling, one of the best groups ever
Even though I like going into a reaction blind, I can see how context could actually elevate a reaction and not hinder it. Sucks because I never know which is which until AFTER the reaction :/
My favourite song from the best band of all time. You should do more of them they never disappoint
Agnetha (blonde) A
Björn (cleanshaven) B
Benny (beard) B
Anni-frid (brunette) A
"The Winner Takes It All" (1980)
*the two girls used to alternate lead vocals; or sing in harmony
Agnetha Faltskog and Björn Ulvaeus were breaking up and they did this song, maybe about the break.
I've heard mixed observations, some say it was about the break and others say it wasn't. It's a great song either way!
Agnetha is a main singer with Frida. They were married to the Boys but both couples ended up divorcing. My favourite ABBA song of all time.
It's from 1980, and good music is still good music.
English isnt even their first language. Talent.
I would have never guessed, it's so on point!
The song that you most likely heard from ABBA is Dancing Queen.
Now that DOES sound familiar!
They are a band of 4 members, two males and two females and they are two married couples that ended in divorce. "ABBA" is an acronym formed from the first letters of each group member's first name: Agnetha, Björn, Benny, Anni-Frid
ABBA, which is an acronym of the 4 members Agnetha, Björn, Benny and Anni-Frid, were super big in 70s and 80s and still suuuuuuperbig today. Globally! They split up 1982. All 4 of them are billionaires today. When you talked about AI in the beginning of the video, it made me think of ABBA Voyage which is an avatar show with them in London. Running for years now.
Really looking forward to your reaction to Tommy's version!
Greatest Pop Band of all times. Tons of hits
Epic song by a epic band
A classic band of the time
ABBA was my childhood's music. I only learned to adore them when the band was long defunct and there was the ABBA gold CD and tape for my my trips for the artillery NCO school. Listening to the singers on repeat 5 hours there and back made me a fan.
The name is a representation of all their names! Amazing group was lucky to grow up listening to them!
I may be bias because I'm Swedish and grew up alongside ABBA, but I can't find anyone getting close to their greatness in music. I remember working as a painter at CERN, we painted a staircase and corridors in a office building. We had a stereo playing Abba songs real loud in the staircase, and I was sure we were going to get complains about it was to loud.

The band broke up in late 1981 or early 1982.
This song is actually one of their latest hits, if im not mistaken, from their last album.
Wow they broke up so early on, was it because they broke up as lovers as well? Wow, I can't wait to delve deeper into more!
Best band ever
I'm having a hard time disagreeing with this statement! Especially after the songs I've heard, I can't wait to edit them!!

They have earned over $1 billion and the money is still pouring in 😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅
I guess that's why they have a song titled "MONEY MONEY MONEY"
I really need to react to it!
I love your analysis of today’s music, excellent!
Thanks for this great and honest reaction!
I wish I knew the context before I heard the song but I love going into a reaction COMPLETELY BLIND 😄 I guess some people didn't like that lol cheers! 🍻
just found you, and wow lol what a place to start.... welcome to the world that is ABBA :D you are on a journey now.

D-I-V-O-R-C-E! We should all handle things so well! 😥😥
You should react to a live show of this song! Where she sings along her ex on the same stage. Thats tense😂😅
Ooouuu now that I've heard the song AND the fact that her ex wrote it, I'd LOVE to see them perform it live! Thanks for the suggestion!
I requested you check out some ABBA way back in 2021 i think? Back when you just started covering Sabaton. Suggested you cover them for some boost in views since they were releasing their first album in 40 years along with a whole 3d concert called Abba Voyage.
At least you got to them eventually 🎉
Björn and Benny has written and made a lot of music outside of Abba, like the musicals Chess and Kristina from Duvemåla. National treasure both of them. ❤
So, if you ever start covering stuff like musicals i definitely have a few suggestions. For Chess theres "Anthem" and "Endgame", both sung the best by Tommy Körberg, and i have a version uploaded to my channel that i consider the best one of the latter song.
For Kristina theres Du måste finnas with Helen Sjöholm, a musical about immigrants to america and the song is about kristina screaming at god that he must be real after all shes gone through.
Theres definitely more than you think when it comes to the members of abba haha
Ohhh THANK YOU for recommending them to me originally, even though I dropped the ball -___- to fix this HEINOUS mistake, I shall add these songs to my list and I'll make sure to react to them soon!
Thanks for sticking around for so long, I know I thanked you before but it really means a lot. Depending on how many videos you've watched, you've given quite the amount of time to me, something you or I can never get back. I appreciate it ❤️❤️
P.s. sorry for slacking in the comments section, I'm dedicating the rest of this day to respond to all the comments I can!
I 00% agree with you that most of the music today is noise! Tommy does a stunning cover of this song! I can't wait to see your reaction to his version 😊,
As for your comment about doing a reaction to the band of the wife of a Sabaton member, that would be the band Nightwish and I can not stress enough that if I were you I would avoid doing reactions to that band. They have a very toxic fanbase and you don't need the nasty and toxic comments that ALWAYS get posted
@@Spo-Dee-O-Dee noisier way of showing it lol, I would use the term nasty or hateful as it describes them perfectly
@@Spo-Dee-O-Dee They are desperate for you to only enjoy the current singer, they get very angry and nasty if a reactor does a song with either the original singer or heaven forbid the 2nd singer. As if the band is only good with the current singer. I watched as they filled a reactors comment section with pure hate filled comments because he dared to like the original singer singing a song that she recorded with the band better than the current singers version.
@@Spo-Dee-O-Dee lol maybe next time
I just got done listening to NIGHTWISH "Bye Bye Beautiful" and I thought the singer was Floor... I hope I don't catch too much flack but I'm ready for the comments 😎
@@Clouded_Reactions The singer was Anette and trust me the vile comments will come. For me I like Anette's voice, it wasn't her fault that she had a problem singing the songs that were written for the 1st singer Tarja. Tarja is a classically trained soprano and sadly Anette isn't. They picked Anette because she sounded nothing like Tarja then expected her to sing those songs.
The 2 albums she recorded with them are fantastic. Meadows of Heaven is one of my favorites
She looks sad because she is sad. The song is a divorce-song. Her ex-husband wrote it and she sang it. Maybe it worked like some sort of therapy for them - who knows?
Haha who knows indeed, I hate to have context before a reaction because I like to be totally surprised BUT I can see how context for this song would have made me appreciate the song and lyrics much more!!
Chech out ABBA COLD, how old are you☺️😗 Listeting to what yoyre saying… just Wait for the next❤️
If you're into music, shouldn't you know a band that has sold almost 500 million records?
I'm recently into more rock/metal/pop music 😂 some people dont know who Eminem is! And that's ok! 😎
Yeah todays music is noise pollution.
Beautiful voice? Agnetha Faltskog have the BEST voice in the music industry. The group is called ABBA.
Its a break up song from the band member Björn.
do your reserch on abba and there lyrics befor you say somthing
NEVER! :)
Surely if you are a music reactor you should know of one of the biggest and most successful bands of all time?
Dude you have to use Wikipedia
NEVER! I do research on a band AFTER I hear them for the first time. I go into my reactions completely blind with no regrets ;)
Relesed 1979..🇸🇪
82'
It was released in 1980 as the first single from the album Super Trouper.
@@tuijakarttunen9164 That's right.Summer '80.
Only the biggest band of the 70's
What!!?? Maybe do some research about the song/group before reacting to it. You need to google ABBA!
NEVER! I go into all my reactions completely blind, and I regret nothing :)
Why don't you just listen and stop interrupting
I prefer to interrupt, duhhh
Too much breaks dude ... Listen and react after the song !!!! 🙄
Yeahhh not gonna happen lol hope you find another reactor that suits you!
Billionaires ? I very much doubt it.
They turned down a billion so I wouldn't doubt it
