    Sad and beautiful. The absolute genius that is ABBA is on full display in this song. The words, vocals,instrumentation ,compilation. It’s all here and it’s brilliant. The greatest pop music band of the 20th century. We will never see this again. Love ABBA.

    Absolute masters of their craft, Benny & Bjorn were excellent songwriters, Anni-frid (frida) & agnetha just had the most fantastic voices, but they way that Agnetha could belt out a note was just mesmersing, not to mention that growing up i had a crush on Agnetha despite her being 37 years older than me

    Undoubtedly one of the greatest pop groups of all time and although their music might seem rather light and bubble gum oriented on the surface when you look a little deeper there's so much more to their music. I took a tremendous amount of heat from my contemporaries for liking this group 40 or 50 years ago but ABBA's music has certainly stood the test of time and they still get lots of airplay on the memory sticks I rock out to in the car. The production values, the instrumentation and the harmonizing vocals are all exemplary. Cheers from Ontario, Canada!

    Agnetha Falskog the GREATEST POP Soprano in over 40 years . Range B 2 - F7 with a pitch perfect , Perfect Pitch, At 4:10 Agnetha hits a F 6 for six seconds ,a pause of only 2 seconds and does another F 6 again for six seconds . In 14 seconds Agnetha held a F 6 just over 12 seconds . She has gone higher but the song called for 2 F 6s ,and that what she did .

  • @Congaman41
    @Congaman41 Год назад +11

    In an interview on Australian TV Agnetha said that this is her favourit ABBA song. It was inspired by her and Björns divorce so I guess it has special meaing for her and her performance is not only world class, it is Epic!

    This was one of the first songs I cried to when I was 12/13 years old back in the early 80s ... and it still can make me cry.
    Even if the text does not translate in your life (and it surely did not in my teenage years) the music does hit you soooooo hard if you feel the sadness of this song.
    What a wonderful sad song.
    Thank you very much for your authentic and honest reaction. Not wanting to feel others bad is just showing a caring heart. But everybody will feel bad in life sometimes. And then... these songs can make us help let out the emotions.
    Wish you all the best for your channel and your whole life.

    ABBA in the begining two swedish couples, meet inb1969:
    Agnetha (blonde singer) &
    Björn (guitarist songwriter)
    Benny (pianist songwriter) &
    Anni Frida (brunette singer)
    Agnetha & Björn married in 1971, with two Young childrens
    Benny and Frida married in 1978, withouth own childrens
    both couples separated before the breakup of ABBA in 1982:
    Agnetha & Björn at end of 1978
    Benny & Frida at begin 1981
    "The winner takes it all" (1980)
    is one of the Best Songs by ABBA
    and the Most sad and emotional too
    The best lyrics by the guitarist Björn
    and the greatest performing with the amazing Interpretation
    of
    the blonde singer Agnetha Fältskog and her soprano voice
    The lyrics is a fiction about a divorce,
    it is not about Their real life,
    although it is obviously influenced by Their own experiences
    and the realization of the legal divorce between Agnetha & Björn 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
    In fact, the song was more nearly in time to the split of Benny & Frida as a couple, only a few months later
    "The winner takes it all" return ABBA to the Top of the charts,
    gives ABBA their eighth #1 in UK after almost two years and half
    Also was the fourth and last Top10 to ABBA in U.S (pick at #8 in 1981)
    and #1 in US Adult Contemporary too
    "The winner takes it all"
    was voted the Best ABBA song by the British fans,
    and is the favourite ABBA song to the blonde singer Agnetha
    and now in the new Voyage concerts at London that begins exactly one year before, the encore song is...
    "The winner takes it all"
    ABBA have more than 20 worldwide hits,
    Their biggest Is "Dancing Queen" (1976)
    Their first worldwide hit was "Waterloo" (1974) when ABBA win the classic Eurovisión Song Contest in UK
    I wish to You a nice week
    my best regards from
