    I'm a huge fan of Summer Night City. My comment on that video earned the most positive 'thumbs up' 😀. Björn's interview was great! My only wish is that someone would interview Benny the same way. Because without Benny, there would be no music at all.

    "Summer Night City" is such an underrated track. The video looks great in 4K. I love the part near the beginning where Agnetha is swishing her arms around like she's swimming and Frida is behind her spinning in a circle.

    Midsommar was traditionally celebrated on June 24th, Johanni, and is now celebrated between the 20th and 26th of June on the respective Saturday to allow all Swedes to celebrate and not have Midsommar in the middle of the week.. I remember when I was a teenager I dreamt about celebrating midsommar in Sweden, cause the 24th of June happens to be my birthday.. so I’m a midsommar barn. As for Summer Night City I think it’s look ms cool but missing the small intro too. It is my absolute favorite abba video and along with Eagle my favorite abba song. I love the atmosphere of the song and would love to hear those other mixes that exist somewhere in the depth of ABBA’s archives. What is mentioned seldomly that for my ears the song has three lead singers. Björn‘s vocals are very prominent and even sometimes in the forefront. Love the hypnotic arrangement.

  • @clay9185
    @clay9185 14 дней назад +9

    Always wondered why Benny & Bjorn weren’t happy with the mixing of the track, it’s one of my favourites & I love the extended version of the song. The 4K version looks amazing, so bright & crisp.. I would expect that the restoration of Abbas hits would be released as a new Abba Gold compilation. I’m still hoping for a series of Abbas songs with all the different mixes we’ve heard & of course the eventual release of ‘Just Like That’ for the fans… Great video BB, thank you..

    Such a great episode, as always. I had already watched the 4K a couple of times, but after this ep., I went back and rewatched and saw all the things you pointed out. Marvellous.
    There is still a real thrill to me in watching this video. It didn't do as well in the British charts (peaking at #5) and so we only got a couple of plays on Top of the Pops, which was our only way in the UK of seeing ABBA videos. Take a Chance on Me and Name of the Game, by contrast, had been #1 for 3 weeks and 4 weeks respectively, so we at least got to see them more often. I also never imagined, aged 12, that I would ever actually visit Stockholm and see those beautiful locations!
    It's also kind of fascinating to see the after-life of Summer Night City, which is one of the absolute highlights of Voyage, while Take a Chance on Me and Name of the Game are absent.

    I love everything Abba, I was born in 1973, and remember listening to Abba on the radio, I never got to go to a concert though , truly wish I had, I would so love to go to London to see the voyage concert with the Abbatars, I have seen many tribute bands here in the UK and while they're a great thing to watch, only Abba is the best, I really thought I was going to marry Bjorn when I grew up! and of course my Dad was in love with Agnetha! but that was ok since Mum was in love with David Essex anyway. Love these video's the pictures, stories and info you share, what's not to love about Abba!

    Hello BB, you haven't been here for a long time. In the meantime, on June 18, ABBA on RUclips gained its 5 millionth subscriber, which is good news because it's the year of the 50th anniversary of the victory in Brighton. Another bit of sad news that went unnoticed is that after ABBA was awarded the Order of Vasa, the members of ABBA said that this was probably their last meeting together. I hope they're wrong.

      Björn said this might be the last time.they come together (all 4) like that, in public. And that might be true, nobody knows yet. Time will tell. Of course they are going to see each other, at least the three in Sweden. It was just a reflection he had, not a statement, so not much to report on or discuss, it might and it might not be the case. 🙂

    I’m really surprised with the opening of the new 4K version. The original opening synced so well with the song kicking in as the visual zoomed in as well to the tighter shot of the street and the headlights of the car. That really stood out to me and I’m perplexed as to why that was changed in the new 4K version. Thank you Bobby’s Brother for your balanced and honest evaluation and I totally relate to your point of how these videos and songs are so intrinsically etched in our ABBA fan DNA’s. What might seem trivial to someone else can be an emotional connection to others. While I am not the biggest fan of “Summer Night City”, I definitely see your points regarding the new 4K version, particularly the aforementioned opening scene.

    What you say BB is so true when you say ,you can see and feel the differences in the videos and arrangements in their music not only on Summer Night City new 4K but on any of their alternative music videos or arrangements in other TV appearances,it is just that ABBA has morphed into our mind and heart but especially our souls that they are one with us and sentinent in our beings,we can feel them in us and alterations and changes are obvious,pretty cool huh,that's the beauty of ABBA and doesn't it make you feel GOOD.
