And who would have thought then that this meeting was the beginning of a new album and concerts in the form of ABBAtars? I will be there in August and I greet you very much!
ive written to abba members over the years and they have autographed all my abba photos ,,superstars who still have time for there fans the recent footage is from 5 years ago,,,there all in there 70s now ,and benny and bjorn are still making music
The Way Old Friends Do is a hymn that touches the heart and soul for anyone who possesses both. The original live video can be found here: ruclips.net/video/O8epPX3Q_W0/видео.html
This was only half of the song. It was performed as the first encore during their 1979 concert tour. And the audio was from that tour. They didn't have a reunion tour. The attended a one off gathering a couple of years ago, where Frida and Agnetha sang the very same song for the guys who went to the stage to join them afterwards. But they will release new material very soon for the first time in decades.
And they are back with a new album containing ten new songs! Looking forward to your reaction, i`ve seen, and listened to two of them, tears of joy rolling down my face in these shitty times!
This was in January 2016 at Stockholms 'Mamma Mia - The Party' restrauant/show. It was apparently the ladies Idea they should all stand on stage. Later in June 2016 Agnetha & Frida appeared on stage at a private party (some film is on youtube) and performed 'The Way Old Friends Do' to mark their ex husbands 50 Years of friendship at a suprise party. Other friends and Swedish artists also performed different ABBA songs as well as track B&B have written and recorded since for their musicals Etc.It appears this was the catylst for the reunion in the studio in June 2017 when two new ABBA songs were created; 'I Still Have Faith In You' and 'Don't Shut Me Down'. These were recorded to help promote the planned ABBATAR stage showin which digitalised 'ABBA' will perform a show with live band and dancers etc. Due to technical difficulties and contractual issues the release was delayed and then the pandemic struck. What had happened during this time remains completely unknown although rumours have begun of more new ABBA songs, a complete album Etc. The official stance is that their are 2 new songs awaiting release and these go hand in hand with the ABBAtar project. Until were officially told anything different, I will wait and see. As all 4 ABBA members are now in their 70's, personally I don't see much else and both women usually avoid being in the public arena these days so I don't see much hope of seeing an awful lot of them. Time will tell.
2 days ago ABBA realesed a 3rd song from their upcoming album (Voyage) which will be released 5th of november. This 3rd song is called "Just A Notion" . Its actually an old song from the 70`s which hasnt been released before...improved and remixed to 2021 hit BUT of course with the very familiar ABBA sound :-)
Wow guys it's wonderful to see you both back again. Truly. Yes the song was a short version of an encore in Wembley stadium 1979, it's a tear jerker. Especially when the audience and the backing singers pitch in. This clip is a montage of reunion materials and the looking forward to the apparently 5 new songs that I do believe will be released at the end of September. COVID and many other factors have delayed the release. The haters will always hate, but secretly listen to ABBA in their own privacy. I admit I watch only two channels on here, for reactions. Yours and another guys. Here in Australia, I get updates from the channels way too late to reply right on time. But nevertheless you know my feelings towards you both..You guys are superstars. Thank you so much again. If I can say it..Huge hugs to you both ♥️♥️
"The way old friend do" was recordet on the ABBA tour 1979 and released on the Super Trouper album 1980. In June 2016 for the first time in more than 30 years they appered together on stage, and Frida & Agnetha sung this song. people went crazy. We still haven´t heard the new songs they recorded in 2018, but.....soon it shall be. i keep my fingers crossed.
nice to see you again with ABBA songs Maybe you did it by chance, but it was never so coincidental and timely, and I'll tell you why ABBA has been doing the historical review of their songs for about three months, through their official Instagram account, and just the last one they did yesterday was ... "The way all friends do" This song was a special composition that ABBA made for their 1979 North American and European Tour It is the first of the encores, then the iconic Dancing Queen and Waterloo will arrive this is an unofficial video, made by a fan, it is very emotional includes half of this song (the other half repeats the lyrics, with more intensity and music) and half of "Thank you for the music" This video is like a tribute to ABBA, it is recording a historical fact: since 1982 that the four of them were not together in a photo and video, and this was in January 2016, for the celebration of "Mamma Mía party" and that same 2016, in June, to celebrate 50 years of the first meeting of Björn and Benny, and the beginning of their musical collaboration and friendship, Agnetha and Frida took the stage, and gave Björn and Benny the interpretation of this same song: "The way all friends do" ruclips.net/video/K5nYTGQfnnQ/видео.html I think this was the starting point for what happened two years later: the confirmation by ABBA that the four of them had returned together to the recording studio for the interpretation of two new songs, and the project of a tour with holograms of their figures in the 70s the project has been postponed several times due to the covid pandemic, but the imminent announcement of the edition of its new songs is expected (which could reach five in total) at the time of recording, their ages were: 68 Agnetha 71 Benny 73 Björn 72 A. Frida (now they are three years older) PS: the first musical instrument that Benny played as a child was the accordion; and there is an ABBA song, sung by Frida in leading voice, in which He plays it: "Tropical Loveland" (1975), there is even a TV presentation in which we can see it along with another rarity: Agnetha on the piano ( She also played it as a child)
My only hope for the upcoming concert in April/May next year is they do the last two songs as themselves now....First Encore... "The Way Old Friends Do" and Second Encore...."Thankyou for The Music" and somehow capture this as their old selves for future concerts so we have their older selves as well for posterity with all the spontaneity involved........that would work as a fitting finale I think......but how to try and let them know this??????.....if you like the idea????
I have this weird relation to ABBA. I don't own any of their albums, I very rarely listen to them, but when I do I always tear up, end up listening to several songs, and conclude for myself that they truly are one of the greatest bands ever. And then they go back to oblivion somewhere in the back of my brain, until next time. I mostly like the not so famous songs, though.
Frida and Agneta actually did perform this song a couple of years ago, the first and only time they have sung together since 1982. You should react to that performance, it’s quite emotional. The quality of the video is not the best but this was not an official performance but at a birthday celebration I believe so we should be thankful that we got this clip at all. Here’s the link to the performance ruclips.net/video/K5nYTGQfnnQ/видео.html
The Way Old Friends Do is from the Super Trouper album 1980 and the video in your reaction video is partly a recording from Stockholm on the 5th of June, 2016, the precursor of their historical return, ruclips.net/video/K5nYTGQfnnQ/видео.html
You picked some video compilation that has no beginning (verses) and just goes straight to chorus. Just try "The Way old friends do" - live version from Wembley 1979. It's proper version. They only have live version that was also released on their album (Super Trouper, I think).
I recommend you to react to a Spanish singer, her name is Diana Navarro. She is very versatile with a very personal voice. Full of melismas and long notes. The song is called "El perdón" (Forgiveness).
not dislike but "feed up with", remember we are one generation before you when it comes to ABBA so playing ABBA to a Sweed is like when you play ABBA for your children.... we tolerate it since it seems to make everybody else happy ;-)
And who would have thought then that this meeting was the beginning of a new album and concerts in the form of ABBAtars?
I will be there in August and I greet you very much!

A beautiful heartwarming anthem. ♥
The energy in that room would be amazing to experience
For real.
Abba is SPECTACULAR!!!
This is a great track by Abba, those girl's voices together are just breathtaking..another great reaction from you guys 👌

"The Way Old Friends Do" is a song from their "Voulez-Vous" Album
Erm, did you mean Super Trouper? The closing track as it happens.
there are 2 new ABBA Songs out now. Released in Sept 2021 ....
2 days ago ABBA realesed a 3rd song from their upcoming album (Voyage) which will be released 5th of november.
This 3rd song is called "Just A Notion" . Its actually an old song from the 70`s which hasnt been released before...improved and remixed to 2021 hit BUT of course with the very familiar ABBA sound :-)

5 new original songs from ABBA are coming out this year..!!! Hurray..!!!
Some music will come out...we don't know how may will be released. 5 isn't confirmed
I remember when the news broke out of the mini reunion in 2016. ABBA trended on Twitter that whole day
It is a bit longer it's from abba in concert there is another video of Frida and agnetha singing that the way old friends a at a party look it up
nice to see you again with ABBA songs
Maybe you did it by chance, but it was never so coincidental and timely, and I'll tell you why
ABBA has been doing the historical review of their songs for about three months, through their official Instagram account, and just the last one they did yesterday was ...
"The way all friends do"
This song was a special composition that ABBA made for their 1979 North American and European Tour
It is the first of the encores, then the iconic Dancing Queen and Waterloo will arrive
this is an unofficial video, made by a fan, it is very emotional
includes half of this song (the other half repeats the lyrics, with more intensity and music) and half of "Thank you for the music"
This video is like a tribute to ABBA, it is recording a historical fact: since 1982 that the four of them were not together in a photo and video, and this was in January 2016, for the celebration of "Mamma Mía party"
and that same 2016, in June,
to celebrate 50 years of the first meeting of Björn and Benny, and the beginning of their musical collaboration and friendship,
Agnetha and Frida took the stage, and gave Björn and Benny the interpretation of this same song:
"The way all friends do"
ruclips.net/video/K5nYTGQfnnQ/видео.html
I think this was the starting point for what happened two years later: the confirmation by ABBA that the four of them had returned together to the recording studio for the interpretation of two new songs, and the project of a tour with holograms of their figures in the 70s
the project has been postponed several times due to the covid pandemic, but the imminent announcement of the edition of its new songs is expected (which could reach five in total)
at the time of recording, their ages were:
68 Agnetha
71 Benny
73 Björn
72 A. Frida
(now they are three years older)
PS: the first musical instrument that Benny played as a child was the accordion;
and there is an ABBA song, sung by Frida in leading voice, in which He plays it: "Tropical Loveland" (1975), there is even a TV presentation in which we can see it along with another rarity: Agnetha on the piano ( She also played it as a child)
My only hope for the upcoming concert in April/May next year is they do the last two songs as themselves now....First Encore... "The Way Old Friends Do"
and Second Encore...."Thankyou for The Music" and somehow capture this as their old selves for future concerts so we have their older selves as

ABBA is releasing a full blown album of new material come fall of 2021. :)
Great guys. I haven't seen that reunion before. I didn't think they had started talking again.
It was cuttend ,but a nice mix to prepare the fans for that historic reunion in this autumn
Frida and Agneta actually did perform this song a couple of years ago, the first and only time they have sung together since 1982. You should react to that performance, it’s quite emotional.

It wasn't the full version of, The way old friends do.
The Way Old Friends Do is from the Super Trouper album 1980 and the video in your reaction video is partly a recording from Stockholm on the 5th of June, 2016, the precursor of their historical return, ruclips.net/video/K5nYTGQfnnQ/видео.html
