Everytime I'm listening to this song I imagine If Is this their way to show their feelings, I think was during the Time when Agneta anD Benny were separating as a couple. My imagination maybe....
And sung live too, which only makes it so much more impressive. So many 'live' performances on shows like this were really just the band syncing to the studio recording, but Abba actually did the performance live (the Bee Gees also did true live performances on TV shows back then).
" Winner takes it al "is one of the most emotional songs ever!. every time listen to this song gives me goosebumps!. I feel like crying. I am 65 years old guy who still keeps listening to this song for 50 years!. never get enough off of it. Agnetta feels whatever sings!.
lol i bet youre over the moon now with new music !!! i cant think of anything else its official monkees do fly and the moon is made of bleu cheese and ABBA is back..
These girls could sing the phonebook. Pure emotion and no auto tune. They were Sweden's 2nd biggest export after Volvo. More Abba please. One of us, Angel eyes, Chiquitita 👌🔥❤️
“You’ve come to shake my hand” for me this is the most powerful lyric and message about life and a failed relationship ever, it still takes my breath away even after all these years… ABBA = Pure Perfection ❤️💔
The song represents the breakdown of the musicians' personal relationship. And yet they go into the studio together and record songs together. Although sad and disappointed, they still have the strength to perform together.
and her voice, dont forget her voice i really dislike Abba's music its to "disco" but i can never say that Agnetha and Frida is bad singers and Benny Andersson is a musical genius i love his orchestra (Benny Andersson orkester) and him playing with Orsa Spelmän is glorious
The craziest thing about this song is that she is singing what her ex-husband is telling her by these lyrics. It's about their breakup, but the lyrics were written by her ex-husband. It just makes the whole song hit even deeper. Incredible professionalism of them to have been able to continue working together.
Agreed! People forget they are Björn’s lyrics. However, they had already been separated, the official divorce became official in 1980. But Björn was already seeing Lena who was a good friend of Agnetha’s. The press was on to this and they would deny the rumors for the sake of Keeping Abba alive. Eventually the story had to break - “The game is on again, a lover or a friend?“ and in the end, I guess, the winner was Lena.
Well they didn't continue as a band much after this, last album the year after, announced band breakup 3 years later. Reunion album 41 years later, with the women not showing up for the launch livestream...
@@OperaJH So true - It amazes me the lyrics Björn’s wrote for Agnetha to sing. They seem so empathetic to what she was going through. See especially the Girl with the Golden Hair set of three songs. But he always said they they were inspired by what they were going through, but don't tell that story. Because of the lyrics it makes you thing the guy was the winner and the woman (Agnetha) was the loser. Of this song he says he wrote the lyrics while drunk. So - was he the Winner? My take is that they both think it was the opposite. Agnetha has said it was here favorite song to sing. Agnetha wanted to stop touring and focus on raising their children and that's what she did. She also didn't want to tour anymore due to valid fears of stalkers as fans were acting insane especially in response to "the blond". Björn wrote the song the way he did - making himself the bad guy - knowing it would play better by fitting with the audience's expectations. Björn & Benny went on to write musicals after this - and you can see they were already going down that path with the last albums and songs like this.
from wikipedia: However, Ulvaeus admitted that the heartache of their breakup inspired the song, but noted that the words in the song should not be taken literally.[1] He said: "Neither Agnetha nor I were winners in our divorce."[
The way she sings the song, it has always sounded to me (even before I knew about here divorce) that she is talking about the other woman when she refers to "the winner", who kept the man that she trusted and loved. I read that she is singing "I lost you, the winner (she) is taking all I loved". Not the meaning that her ex-husband won.
There's a reason, why ABBA were so successful, World Wide, through decades of no1"s and its called TALENT. Even today it shines through. You should listen to more of their songs, the list is long but everyone a winner guaranteed! Without doubt, the best group ever.
Yes, this was and is .. amazing .. by far best ever song and performance ... In fact, out of this World for our simple mortal souls ... This song is immortal like ABBA and wil be there.. forever
It's funny that women think it's always about them, they don't believe that a man has any feelings at all. Björn wrote the song from his heart and yet his estranged wife sings it which must feel so strange for him.
It was very brave of her to sing about her own life like that to the world and a lot of the world were listening, because Abba were massive, really massive. They had lots of great songs like S.O.S. Chiquitita, Waterloo and Thank You For The Music just to name a few. Check them out they were wholesome.
Everyone thinks she sings about her own relationship when Benny Andersson (piano) stated many times the text is fictional. Yes and we all know they all had an relationship but this text is still fiction. Greetings from Sweden.
she's not singing about her own life, she was glad to get out of the marriage, plus tell me, if it's about her who is the winner??? her or bjorn? there isn't a winner because neither of them were seeing other people at the time
@@ajayjackson7727 Bjorn got together with one of the backing singers, right after the split. Agnetha was left with their children and had to keep going with the band and working along side them, Benny and Bjorn also wrote Our Last Summer, Benny was having an affair while married to Frieda. Frieda sang it, a song about a relationship ending. She made it about her life, because she wasn't okay about that divorce.
Hi babe, great to see your reaction to one of the greatest bands ever. Abba have always been always been real favourites and it's brilliant to see them back.
I did not pay attention to ABBA when they were big because I wasn't into upbeat vacuous pop music. I had no idea they were capable of such thoughtful and poignant lyrics. Lines like: "The Gods may throw the dice, their minds as cold as ice."...definitely not mindless pop fluff. RESPECT for ABBA!
Only the lyrics of this song are so touchy; but then comes along Agnète with her crystel clear voice making this heartbreaking! All time masterpiece song!
I´m happy because ABBA is coming back and release a new album almost 40 years later. I just listening "Don´t shut me donw", magic is still here.. Thank you Abba. I growing up with your music 1970´s...
you discovered one of the most popular bands in the music history. in the 60s, 70s, 80s artists used to have another kind of "language" in their professional works . The Winner takes it all is almost a poem very big , emotional ...a kind of freudian catarsis to talk about love ........about the end of an ilusion, a marriage dream........Beautiful...
Every single time I hear this song my tears run down I can’t help it. Thank you ABBA for this beautiful song. Thank you Agneta fir singing it the way you did💖
ABBA was so big in Europe in the seventies. I lived in a small village in the Netherlands and our bakery sold ABBA pictures for 5 cents a package. I collected them and glued them in a composition book. When I was 12 my parents bought their first record player and bought me my very first record, from ABBA of course. The music- and gossip magazines wrote everything about their private lives, their relation struggles and divorces. That's why this song was such a punch in the gut. It was definitely not only about the end of them as a band. It was about their relation struggles. I always wondered how I would feel if my ex wrote a song for me to sing. That's crazy. But these people were (and still are) professionals all the way.
Very powerful song. Agnetha was so strong singing this song that could not have been easy for her. ABBA SUPERGROUP THE BEST GROUP ON THE PLANET SUPER TROOPERS LOVE ABBA. Please react to more of ABBA songs. They were brilliant live in concert. If you can please react to ABBA live in concert. Love your reactions.
Welcome to ABBA, your life will change now. I bought this on vinyl the day it was released! It’s my favourite song of all time by anyone ever. Timeless and for ever
I first heard it at 8 yrs old and loved it without knowing the meaning, am now almost 50 and love it much more. A true gem, and judging from your reaction you will also love it the more you hear and understand it. Thx.
I was 17. 40 years ago. So cool watching today's generation listen to the music of my generation. I can best describe the 70's music era as, pure emotion. You are truly lovely Morenikeji.
Everyone can relate to their words and music. We’ve all had the emotions; joys and disappointments... THAT is why their music will survive. It’s honesty set to good melodies.
My divorce was a blessing but I saw an interview with Agnetha (the blonde singer) stating they tried to keep their divorce amicable. But no divorce is amicable. Hit me hard. This song makes me cry, especially when they say the loser is standing small - an illusion to their children.
Nice reaction! I've loved Abba from 1974. They made wonderful music videos with fantastic costumes that were very “of their time” when few other musicians were doing it. Four good-looking, seemingly kindhearted Swedes - what’s not to love? And no scandals, no addiction, no drama, no one’s secretly a terrible person. Their relationships ran their courses, yet they remained consummate professionals and friends. I think that’s extraordinarily difficult to pull off, which to me is quite a testament to their characters.
"SOMEONE WAY DOWN HERE LOSES SOMEONE DEAR..........." Lovely reaction video to this very sad song from super-group ABBA from my teen years. Thank you for it!
Hello again, so nice to I see your second reaction to ABBA I love so much the Sweden pop group ABBA They have more than 20 worldwide hits in several countries of all continents, included Waterloo S.O.S. Mamma Mia Fernando Dancing Queen Take a chance on me Chiquitita Gimme gimme gimme The winner takes it all Super trouper "The winner takes it all" is one of their greatest hits, #1 in UK and several countries, #8 in Billboard U.S. and #1 in Adult Contemporary U.S. "The winner takes it all" have a deep lyric writen by the guitarist Björn and singing at lead vocal by his ex-wife Agnetha, that gives an emotional and powerful interpretation with her lovely voice note: Agnetha & Björn was separated at the end of 1978 (with two young children) but the legal divorce was in the middle of 1980 after this, Björn wrote this incredible lyrics (obviously included part of your own history), and the songwriters Björn & Benny gives Agnetha to sing it at first She cry, but then put all your feelings and emotions and talents to this amazing performing I hope to see you in another reaction to ABBA songs I suggest you one of their most worldwide hit: "Mamma Mia" Stay safe and be care And have a great week!
The composition, the arrangements, the mix of all the voices, the sound very clear and very stable of Agnethas voice, the movement of the chorus behind.. all these things mixed together shake our hearts and touch us deeply even 40 years after… thanks to all these bands through the 70s and 80s that were really capable of writing songs like that… Thank you so much..
In 1974 won ABBA the Song Festival with the number Waterloo , but all songs of ABBA are beautiful! I love to hear this song again. Thank you Morenikeji for your choice! Love from Holland and a kiss !🙋🏼♂️🇳🇱👍😘
She was in touch with her emotions singing this song because she had split with her husband one of the ABBA band. So when you see her sad & depressed she really was & she had to feel this way to bring out the best in the way she sang it especially t he storytelling
When they were still happy couples.. The boys Björn (guitars, lead vocals, lyrics) and Benny (keys, music compositions) teamed up together. They happened to have girlfriends who could sing too, and they tried them, like so many groups in those days, to provide backing chorus. In the recording studio it showed how amazing the girls voices sounded together if they sung lead. The outcome is well known.
ABBA. No cosmetic surgery. No auto tune. No tone changes. No fancy BS. Just stunning talent and amazing composers.
Sir you nailed it
You said it. Utter perfection!
So true!!
AND NO METAL OR TATOOS!! THE DID NOT DESECRATE THEIR OWN BODIES
Plastic surgery wasn’t really a thing in Europe at the time.
The most beautiful,tragic break-up song Ever composed!!!!!! Almost 39 years later and it still chokes me up!!!
41 years
Yes. I agree. I think it is the most beautiful and genuine song of a break up song sung most beautifully by Agnetha that I know of.
And now they back :)
beautiful
Everytime I'm listening to this song I imagine If Is this their way to show their feelings, I think was during the Time when Agneta anD Benny were separating as a couple. My imagination maybe....
100 years time, ABBA still be on the radio. Everyone loves ABBA.
I love ABBA, always did, always will.
New album on the way!
True !!!
I've been an ABBA fan for over 43 years.
Absolutely
one of the best female voices ever
~ No Doubt at ALL ~❤~
Agreed.
She puts emotion in a song like no one.
As a Swede, I'm very proud of the legacy of Abba 😍😍🤩🤩
Ūú getur veriđ viss um ūađ.
You can be proud not just because of ABBA. Roxette, Ace of Base, Europe ... icons of music. Thank you Sweden for this music art.
Tú y todos estamos orgullosos de ellos. También aquí en España y en toda Europa. Son nuestros.
Agree!
I bet you are ABBA are awsome.
Her vocal range was insane
And sung live too, which only makes it so much more impressive.
So many 'live' performances on shows like this were really just the band syncing to the studio recording, but Abba actually did the performance live (the Bee Gees also did true live performances on TV shows back then).
" Winner takes it al "is one of the most emotional songs ever!. every time listen to this song gives me goosebumps!. I feel like crying. I am 65 years old guy who still keeps listening to this song for 50 years!. never get enough off of it. Agnetta feels whatever sings!.
lol i bet youre over the moon now with new music !!! i cant think of anything else its official monkees do fly and the moon is made of bleu cheese and ABBA is back..
I can’t listen to this song, the hurt in her eyes breaks my heart.
You feel like crying when you hear this? I DID cry! Of course, I was 11 when this had just been issued as a single.....
It's only 42 years old. 1980
J’ai le même âge et j’écoute souvent cette chanson ABBA est le plus grand groupe de pop de tous les temps c’est factuel
This song proves that Agnetha is the greatest pop singer the world has ever seen. She is phenomenon. I love her angel voice.
She's great, but your comment is "the greatest" hyperbole ever.
@famkima royte true!👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
This woman was born to sing as she relates in "thank you for the music"
Selling over 400 million albums worldwide shows how much ABBA is loved..They ruled the 70s..🎸🎶🎤👍😁😊
Yeppers!
These girls could sing the phonebook. Pure emotion and no auto tune. They were Sweden's 2nd biggest export after Volvo. More Abba please. One of us, Angel eyes, Chiquitita 👌🔥❤️
In autumn ABBA Will reunite for 5 new songs.It is official..
I think you forgot IKEA 😜
@@danielblandu67 I hope it happens... supposedly agnetha wasn’t interested...
All !
Hey !!!
What about Toblerone !
Best pop band in history.. nothing more to say.
ABBA has produced so many timeless bangers it's unreal.
This Is A Music Masterpiece In Every Single Way.
*I am 54 years old and nevertheless, I still get Tears in my Eyes every Time I hear this Song !*
*Romantic Greetings from Hamburg !!*
Me too😢❤
Pure , honesty and real feelings, no autotunes, no stage show..... Outstanding!!
Idont regard myself as an abba fan ,but you cant fail to recognise the talent that has created and performed their songs
“You’ve come to shake my hand”
for me this is the most powerful lyric and message about life and a failed relationship ever, it still takes my breath away even after all these years… ABBA = Pure Perfection ❤️💔
The song represents the breakdown of the musicians' personal relationship.
And yet they go into the studio together and record songs together.
Although sad and disappointed, they still have the strength to perform together.
Agnetha is living that song. And that's why it catches you.
There is an actual video that goes with this song which is even sadder.
and her voice, dont forget her voice i really dislike Abba's music its to "disco" but i can never say that Agnetha and Frida is bad singers and Benny Andersson is a musical genius i love his orchestra (Benny Andersson orkester) and him playing with Orsa Spelmän is glorious
Possibly the best soprano to lend her voice to popular music.
The craziest thing about this song is that she is singing what her ex-husband is telling her by these lyrics. It's about their breakup, but the lyrics were written by her ex-husband.
It just makes the whole song hit even deeper.

Одна из самых моих любимых песен АВВА.Чудесная песня.
A song about her divorce from the guitar player , which he wrote.
Some other great songs by them..... S.O.S. The day before you came, knowing me knowing you...
Both of them denied it was about their own divorce.

ABBA is truly amazing. Their music still resonates to this day, 40+ years later
There is talent then there is Talent! those four people together was pure musical magic! there is a reason they sold almost 400 million records!
STILL....My fave of all time! Agnetha has one of the greatest voices ever!❤
La più bella canzone d'amore mai composta e cantata magistralmente al mondo! E' un'opera d'arte!
One of the ABBA best originals. It's moving and touches every single sense in our life. Just awesome.
"40+" years since ABBA. Still her voice is like an angel. Breathtaking!
I did not pay attention to ABBA when they were big because I wasn't into upbeat vacuous pop music. I had no idea they were capable of such thoughtful and poignant lyrics. Lines like: "The Gods may throw the dice, their minds as cold as ice."...definitely not mindless pop fluff. RESPECT for ABBA!
The most beautiful from abba❤
I was in my teens when this song hit the number 1 spot. Abba were my idols!!!! Still breathtaking!
No self confidence
As you see it
The most honest words written in any song ever
Only the lyrics of this song are so touchy; but then comes along Agnète with her crystel clear voice making this heartbreaking! All time masterpiece song!
I´m happy because ABBA is coming back and release a new album almost 40 years later. I just listening "Don´t shut me donw", magic is still here.. Thank you Abba. I growing up with your music 1970´s...
АББА, это лучшая группа, которая когда либо существовавшая на планете Земля,я ее люблю уже 50 лет.
One of the greatest recordings ever, for sure.
It feels like the song is telling you a story that everyone has being through at least once in their life time..
Greetings from Sweden 🇸🇪
Truly sublime composition. The sadness, the introspection, the grief of a love lost, and the sense that you've somehow come off worse.
There's a lump on my throat hearing this song and how powerful Agnetha voice is. Too sad and impressed at the same time
you discovered one of the most popular bands in the music history. in the 60s, 70s, 80s artists used to have another kind of "language" in their professional works . The Winner takes it all is almost a poem very big , emotional ...a kind of freudian catarsis to talk about love ........about the end of an ilusion, a marriage dream........Beautiful...

The official video of this is a real tear-jerker. The last part, where her voice cracks gets me every time!
ABBA was so big in Europe in the seventies. I lived in a small village in the Netherlands and our bakery sold ABBA pictures for 5 cents a package.

some things never changes and ABBA still remains
Excellence = ABBA this song was record in multiple languages for the history books.
All these years later still gives goosebumps
The kind of song where you can't stop the little teardrop forming in the corner of your eye when really listening to it.
This song is a masterpiece. The writing is incredible and the voice so haunting...and sad
It's such a powerful song and yet so moving.
This is the best song ever written!
How could a group in such turmoil sing an emotive song like this with such perfection?
Only Abba could.
2 THINGS I LOVE ABT ABBA.
- FRIDA AND AGNETHA'S HARMONY
- THE BASSLINE
Definitely one of the greatest pop bands ever, such classic, memorable and poignant songs, beautiful!
The best ABBA Song. Gimme Gimme.
It’s a heartbreaking song but remains one of my favorites that can still bring out emotions in me.
ABBA Voyage!! Welcome back
Very powerful song. Agnetha was so strong singing this song that could not have been easy for her. ABBA SUPERGROUP THE BEST GROUP ON THE PLANET SUPER TROOPERS LOVE ABBA. Please react to more of ABBA songs. They were brilliant live in concert. If you can please react to ABBA live in concert. Love your reactions.
Best group ever by far an always will be
Welcome to ABBA, your life will change now. I bought this on vinyl the day it was released! It’s my favourite song of all time by anyone ever. Timeless and for ever
This song just breaks my heart, every time I listen to it. But do I stop listening to it? Oh, no! It's ABBA, so I keep listening.🤷♀️
One of the all time greatest vocal performances. Agnetha breaks my heart everytime I hear it. What a voice!
One of the best voices ever.❤️
I first heard it at 8 yrs old and loved it without knowing the meaning, am now almost 50 and love it much more. A true gem, and judging from your reaction you will also love it the more you hear and understand it. Thx.
here you can see once again what music can do, especially this very personal masterpiece from abba!
I was 17. 40 years ago. So cool watching today's generation listen to the music of my generation. I can best describe the 70's music era as, pure emotion.
You are truly lovely Morenikeji.
The lyrics to this song and the story behind ABBA would bring a tear to a glass eye!
Everyone can relate to their words and music. We’ve all had the emotions; joys and disappointments... THAT is why their music will survive. It’s honesty set to good melodies.
.. what a beautiful melody with all crazy violons and voices arround catched you up more and more deep inside.
.. great song and music ever ..
My divorce was a blessing but I saw an interview with Agnetha (the blonde singer) stating they tried to keep their divorce amicable. But no divorce is amicable. Hit me hard. This song makes me cry, especially when they say the loser is standing small - an illusion to their children.
Abba is the best group from Sweden
Still get goosebumps listening to this
Nice reaction! I've loved Abba from 1974. They made wonderful music videos with fantastic costumes that were very “of their time” when few other musicians were doing it. Four good-looking, seemingly kindhearted Swedes - what’s not to love?
And no scandals, no addiction, no drama, no one’s secretly a terrible person. Their relationships ran their courses,
yet they remained consummate professionals and friends. I think that’s extraordinarily difficult to pull off,
which to me is quite a testament to their characters.
What a voice she has,, such a meaningful song!!!
ABBA have relased 2 new songs over 40 years ✌🏻
There's a lump in my throat each time I listened to this song in particular. The melody and lyrics just gave me goosebumps.
One of the greatest songs of all time!!
"SOMEONE WAY DOWN HERE LOSES SOMEONE DEAR..........."
Lovely reaction video to this very sad song from super-group ABBA from my teen years. Thank you for it!
This.. is .. one of.. the Best songs ever written and performed ... Thank you ABBA for this incredible musici
Loved your reaction, 30 years later it still makes me feel the same every time!
I count myself as very lucky to have grown up with this band in the 70's and heard all these as chart hits for the first time.
Hello again, so nice to I see your second reaction to ABBA
I love so much the Sweden pop group ABBA
They have more than 20 worldwide hits in several countries of all continents, included
Waterloo
S.O.S.
Mamma Mia
Fernando
Dancing Queen
Take a chance on me
Chiquitita
Gimme gimme gimme
The winner takes it all
Super trouper
"The winner takes it all" is one of their greatest hits, #1 in UK and several countries, #8 in Billboard U.S. and #1 in Adult Contemporary U.S.
"The winner takes it all" have a deep lyric writen by the guitarist Björn and singing at lead vocal by his ex-wife Agnetha, that gives an emotional and powerful interpretation with her lovely voice
note: Agnetha & Björn was separated at the end of 1978 (with two young children) but the legal divorce was in the middle of 1980
after this, Björn wrote this incredible lyrics
(obviously included part of your own history),
and the songwriters Björn & Benny gives Agnetha to sing it
at first She cry, but then put all your feelings and emotions and talents to this amazing performing
I hope to see you in another reaction to ABBA songs
I suggest you one of their most worldwide hit:
"Mamma Mia"
Stay safe and be care
And have a great week!
I don't know how it's possible to not have heard this song before.
Reaction channels cause amnesia
The composition, the arrangements, the mix of all the voices, the sound very clear and very stable of Agnethas voice, the movement of the chorus behind.. all these things mixed together shake our hearts and touch us deeply even 40 years after… thanks to all these bands through the 70s and 80s that were really capable of writing songs like that… Thank you so much..
ABBA grabs u with a cheerful melody, than breaks u down crying. That the masterpiece of ABBA.
Ohhh still get Goosebumps on the back of my arms! Why o why hasn't anyone got the balls to form a band like this now a days@
I grew up with ABBA. They kill me, the songs the voices. AND 2021 they have NEW!
In 1974 won ABBA the Song Festival with the number Waterloo , but all songs of ABBA are beautiful! I love to hear this song again. Thank you Morenikeji for your choice!
Love from Holland and a kiss !🙋🏼♂️🇳🇱👍😘
She was in touch with her emotions singing this song because she had split with her husband one of the ABBA band. So when you see her sad & depressed she really was & she had to feel this way to bring out the best in the way she sang it especially t he storytelling
What a powerful song. Thank you for reacting to this
This song is timeless can touch no matter what generation or time actually telling the end of Abba and there relationships breaking up !
I love this woman. She listens to stuff I grew up listening to.
Im a 60yo head banger, Abba was one of the greatest pop bands in history.
I’m a 45 year old rock guitarist and ABBA is my guilty pleasure
Bin 50 und kann nur zustimmen! Am 50 and can only agree!
When they were still happy couples.. The boys Björn (guitars, lead vocals, lyrics) and Benny (keys, music compositions) teamed up together. They happened to have girlfriends who could sing too, and they tried them, like so many groups in those days, to provide backing chorus. In the recording studio it showed how amazing the girls voices sounded together if they sung lead. The outcome is well known.
The best song ever
