    You literally can't not like ABBA. You may SAY you don't to sound cool, you may be ashamed because of it, but you like them. You'll always like them. Best get over it now

    I was an ABBA tragic as a young boy. Imagine my delight when my school Report Card came out, and my first four grades were A, B, B, A! I still love their music because it's timeless.

    A top 10 ABBA songs ? How can it be possible ? Each time you listen to an ABBA song, it is the best song. And when you have finished, the other ABBA song you listen to after becomes the best.

    Angel Eyes ... Although I didn't found any video of it. Vocals are amazingly melodious just act as like different music instrument itself . One of my very favorite track !!
    ABBA all tracks are literally out of the world ... Extraordinarily Melodious combination of vocals, perfect lyrics and mesmerizing music.They were pretty futuristic as compared to 1970's .
    Just imagine 40 years back... without internet they reached top ten song list of more than 14 countries and sold 6-10 millions copies !! Simply outstanding and stunning !!
    Still rocking in 2018 .I think every fan will share the same feeling mentioned in below lines and perfect tribute of their love towards ABBA !!
    "So I say
    Thank you for the music, the songs I'm singing
    Thanks for all the joy they're bringing
    Who can live without it, I ask in all honesty
    What would life be?
    Without a song or a dance what are we?
    So I say thank you for the music
    For giving it to me" - Thank You For The Music Track - ABBA

I was sitting on the plane from London bored to death scrolling through the plane's touch screen when i see "ABBA" as a music option, and despite my utter hate of any music pre dating 1980, i gave it a shot and 24 hours later i had over 60+ of their songs in my ipod, completely OBSESSED with this wonderfully amazing group i wish i was around to have seen them perform live XD

      mbear1 honestly, I feel like ABBA is at the same time overplayed and underappreciated. People instantly think "Dancing Queen" and write them off as a superficial disco band.

  • @ThePianoManII
    @ThePianoManII 6 лет назад +41

    How typical putting Dancing Queen on the top--I agree it's their best known song, so I see why it's there--but as an ABBA fan, it's the one I usually skip when shuffling their songs. How about Andante, Andante, The Visitors (that got them banned in the USSR) or some of the runner ups? It was a TOUGH call--they're a rarity--writing their own music, and the guys playing their own instruments, without computers fixing their voices--can't wait for their new songs coming out in late 2018! :)

    • @Ethan-en2ij
      @Ethan-en2ij 5 лет назад

  • @lamisere8337
    @lamisere8337 3 года назад +22

    People often wonder why ABBA is such a guilty pleasure for many. Some cite the obvious Disco influence in some of their songs but that's the thing; only some and certainly not all have that music style so it can't be that. Others cite the fact English wasn't their first language giving the songs an innocent sense and highly accessible nature. I disagree, the lyrics to their songs are actually quite complex and the topics of their songs are often unconventional and deep in a way that it finds its way in everyone's experience either because they can relate to the message or because the music grabs at something that can't be put into words and ABBA is damn good at that. That is no simplistic effort and I'd say they have a better command of the English language than most native English speakers do. So language barriers aren't what makes their songs frothy and childlike to the point they are guilty pleasures because their song catalogue is far from cheap and simple.
    I truly believe their music is a guilty pleasure for many for the same reason musical theatre is a guilty pleasure for many. It is no coincidence that ABBA's song catalogue is the basis of a smash hit Broadway musical. Their songs have more than just a hint of theatricality in them; they ARE very theatrical. Not only in their sound but also in the way they treat subject matter and how they always seem to be using music to deepen a story, to flesh it out, to make it real and to reach into us all and invoke that which cannot be said via the spoken word. And why is that a reason to want to hide it all and pretend you're less of a fan than you are? It's effective. You can't just be at a bar and hear an ABBA song come on and not feel like time is standing still. ABBA reaches in and pulls you in whether you like it or not. It makes you feel. Disco music with its beats and grand orchestral accompaniment had very much a similar theatricality that many people also resented. I think there is such a thing as music that is too effective; it begins to become intrusive if you don't plan to feel a certain way and it forces you to. Those of us who are able to handle the weight that these songs bring easily adapt and find them to be invigorating. Not everyone is able or willing to do that and so they wait until they are alone to enjoy the music that makes them feel, when they are ready to let their guard down.

    ABBA was slow getting to the US, but I think that was Stig's ultimate objective from the get go. They were so meticulous in the crafting of every single song. They broke out of Sweden-only with the Euro-contest superhit Waterloo, then S.O.S - then they switched language to English (American accent) and put the girls in front, vocals (the boys did back up, and wrote most all the songs). Life is so, so short. I love the fact they were so old fashioned, believed in marriage and family and children. But their careers were so intense, they were superlative cratsmen artisticly. They gave themselves unstintingly to their adoring world audience. Yes they did break into the English-speaking world, almost by surprise. But it was not the USA but Australia. I am an American, and somehow overlooked them when I was young. I am turning into their biggest fan. My favorite is "Winner takes it all."

    Just the best band ever. Music is ethereal and eternal. Vocals which will never be matched. So good to live during Abba times

    ABBA. THE GREATEST SNGING GROUP IN HISTORY

  • @noahs.4694
    @noahs.4694 7 лет назад +6

    10-SOS
    9-Take a Chance on Me
    8-Hey Hey Helen
    7-Ring Ring
    6-That's Me
    5-The King has Lost his Crown
    4-If it wasn't for the Nights
    3-Kisses of Fire
    2-Angel Eyes
    1-Thank you for the Music
    I personally always hate how everyone only ever seems to focus on the first cd of the ABBA Gold album. Yes the songs are great, but so many of their other great songs go missing. For a change, listen to the second cd, or the five record Readers Digest album!

      As a metal fan, you really should check out the very metal
      Tribute To Abba album. Therion's "Summernight City" is a fave of mine.

    The top ABBA's songs is different in 2018... with songs exploited after, like "Thank you for the music" "Knowing me konowing you" "Happy new year" and maybe "One of us" and "Angel eyes" after the exploitation of Mamma mia 2.... And THE BIG MIstake forgotten "The name of the game" one of the best song of the career.... See the official video most viewed on youtube TODAY

      Totally agree! Name of the Game is one of Abba's best and would easiy push out Super Trouper or Gimmex3
