I have watched this video a dozen times, because I regret that I didn´t take ABBA seriously back in the 70s-80s, and I thought they were just a pop band, but listening again to most of their melodies today I realized that I missed a master work of music. Benny Anderson IS a music genius ...Hat off for his Chess musical with all the master pieces. Thanks Ulrika for playing their music which puts me in the mood of Chopin, Bach, Mozart and other music masters.
Until a few months ago, I despised Abba, until suddenly I heard one song, and it caused me an epiphany. Now I love them so much. I had the prejudice that they were just lip synchers and dancers (like Boney M), but no, they were a real band
I really subscribe completely what you said about Ulrika. Ulrika you plays this so beautifull so classical and exact how one ought to play the piano. I am pianist, organist and choir conductor and arranger. I know how you have to touch the keys of a piano,. You do it totaly with your body and soul . I can only enjoy of your play . I wished you were my teacher, but it is a pitty I lve in the Netherlands and can only reach you in this way 😀😀
Yes I studied ABBA music they were more then people portrayed them every one of them were accomplished musicians and singers before they even started ABBA
I am in the same mood as you, for I didn't care very much of them 40 years ago, while they were in their prime. And all of a sudden 12 years ago, I literally stumbled into their music and was amazed at their musical genius. I have started to love them very much ever since. Thank you very much Ulrika for your perfect rendition of ABBA's greatest hits....
I keep returning to your videos of you playingABBA songs on the piano. I have never heard anything that beautifull. I hope that Mr Benny Andersson is enjoying your playing the piano as much as all the rest of us.
I remember playing this on loop back in the 70s until the cassette tape was worn out. That melody sung by their voices was just perfect. It spread such an awesome mood, even when one didn't know/understand the lyrics.
Back in the 1980-s, I saw this song first in the Polish program of ABBA songs aired in USSR, I was forever lost to this song. So gentle, so heavenly, so fragile. Yet, so strong and pure. Thank you!
Ulrika wonderful music. I note from your expressions and movement that you feel the beauty of the music, in a key change, or chord progression. Absolutely beautiful. Thanks.
Oh, my heart melts when I listen to it! Your piano technique has a lot in common with Benny's playing. Very gentle, with a lot of emotion and attention to every detail. ♥♥♥♥♥
Very similar idea stands behind another ABBA's song "Like an angel passing though my room". The only difference is that in this second song it is not clear if missing person is still alive.
Daniel, At least you put your Heart into it and tryed... That's the most important part of life. You have passion and this gift will benefit you and your lucky Bride.. Good Luck! Jack up the volume and play a great one from ABBA called, "Move On"
I'm Brazilian and a big ABBA fan and now his fan too. Your channel is wonderful, I discovered it a week ago and I keep watching it. Congratulations. Please, when it hits I still have faith in you and Don't shut me down by ABBA. Thank you very much and affectionate hug.
I've never felt this strong I am invincible, how could this go wrong No, here, here's where we belong I see a road ahead I've never thought i would dare to tread Like an image passing by, my love, my life In the mirror of your eyes, my love, my life I can see it all so clearly All i love so dearly Images passing by Like reflections of your mind, my love, my life Are the words I try to find, my love, my life But I know I don't posses you With all my heart, God bless you You will be my love and my life You're my one and only I held you close to me Felt your heartbeat and I thought I am free Oh, yes and as one are we And I know I'm beyond Nothing and no one can break this heart Like an image passing by, my love, my life In the mirror of your eyes, my love, my life I can see it all so clearly All our love so dearly Images passing by Like reflections of your mind, my love, my life Are the words I try to find, my love, my life But I know I don't posses you With all my heart, God bless you You're still my love and my life Yes, I know don't possess you With all my heart, God bless you You're still my love and my life You're my one and only
I’ve run out of superlatives for your talent. As ever this is superb and I look forward to that notification coming through when you’ve posted a new video.
I love everything about this woman. Love her home and the fact that she has two pianos in the room. She inspires me. I've actually dug my ABBA music out and am playing again. Thank you so much! x
Simply majestic. I am always drawn to your compositional talent you bring to all your covers. Most of the covers we find here on RUclips are rather simplistic. I appreciate what you do.
Ja też lubię ten utwór .Mam wszystkie albumy Abby i często słucham ich muzyki. Mam prośbę ,czy mogła byś kiedyś zagrać "I Do, I Do, I Do" i "If it wasn't for the nights". Pozdrawiam i dziękuję za muzykę ;)
I could listen to you until the end of time. Your beautifull and sensitive interpretation made me cry.. ABBA deserves the praise that they are fully entitled to, and you are ust the pianist to do them apropriate justice. Do you think that you would play " Just like that ".?
I don't recall that particular ABBA tune but nonetheless, I loved it and you played it beautifully, as always with your personal warmth and expression. Thanks Elrika for continuing to share your gift of music!!! ☺
This kind of covers show the melody in its purity and demonstrates how good they were at compositions. I like this version over Benny Andersson's because it includes the short suspense intro included in the ABBA released song
Dear Ulrika! Thank you so much for your God given 'Talent Blessing' you are presenting us. You're a Sweet Lady and we appreciate your gift... Keep up the great work! It's a pleasure to listen and be with you! I am a subscriber and an ABBA Lover as well! 🌹😘
One of ABBA's most beautiful songs, played perfectly.
One of the best ABBA renditionists on RUclips right now. x
Love me I’m mother
I could listen to you playing Abba all day you are a fabulous
I wish Ulrika would make a CD of nothing but ABBA hits. It would sell millions.

Don't blame yourself. To understand music and it's emocional side You need life experience impossible to acquire at young age.
Таланливое произведение живёт веками. Обожаю любую мелодию песню группы Авва.
Браво! Не перестаю восхищаться Вами. С любовью из России!

Absolutely BEAUTIFUL. You and ABBA are both amazing 😊
Wasn't she part of ABBA?
This is music from heaven!
Какая красотища!
Jedna z piękniejszych piosenek grupy ABBA a twoje wykonanie równie wspaniałe thank you
Profesionalny pianista umie dodać niuanse które umknęły Benny'emu - pianiście samoukowi.
Back in the 1980-s, I saw this song first in the Polish program of ABBA songs aired in USSR, I was forever lost to this song. So gentle, so heavenly, so fragile. Yet, so strong and pure. Thank you!
It was TV concert first aired in Polish TV on Saturday October 9th, 1976.
I love playing the piano, especially ABBA songs. You are by biggest inspiration 🥰
WOW. How beautiful, I could mime the words perfectly to the tempo.
What a performance! What a masterpiece!
Bravo, Ulrika! BRAVO!!!
Fabulous Ulrika, bravo.

Ulrika wonderful music. I note from your expressions and movement that you feel the beauty of the music, in a key change, or chord progression. Absolutely beautiful. Thanks.
Unbelievably beautiful
No words, only..... WAUWWW 💖

Спасибо большое! Прекрасное исполнение произведения любимой группы!
Perfect like a Aggie ( Agnetha Fältskog) 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🎹🎼❤️
Pure goosebumps. What a tune whether with or without lyrics!!
Bravooooo !.... Brazil - 17/01/2020
As a teenager in 1982 I sang this song with german lyrics (my mothertongue) I wrote to a girl I was in love. But I had never got her..
😂
Daniel, At least you put your Heart into it and tryed... That's the most important part of life. You have passion and this gift will benefit you and your lucky Bride.. Good Luck!
Jack up the volume and play a great one from ABBA called, "Move On"
She was the unlucky one. She could have a guy with good taste, and let the opportunity fly
Esplêndido 👏🏻👏🏻🇧🇷💖
Once again you’ve achieved another beautiful interpretation of an ABBA song. Well done ♥️
Una de mis canciones favoritas de Abba...y la interpretacion que usted hace en el piano es muy admirable e inspiradora.
Absolutely stunning. Spellbinding. Captivating. Played with such feeling, emotion, soul. Just beautiful.
Wow Ulrika you are so wunderfull!!!!
Melodia mozartiana. Ulrica sempre meravigliosa.
Dear Ulrika. Your magic music makes people happy, better and able to feel real beauty. Bravo!
Awesome!!!
My favorite Abba song. I am in tears..

Gyönyörü hölgy! ❤❤❤
Wonderful 👏👏👏
WAOOO, ESA NO LA HABÍA ESCUCHADO Y ES HERMOSA TAMBIEN. Y USTED TOCA DE MEMORIA. TOCA EL PIANO MUY LINDO.
I've never felt this strong
I am invincible, how could this go wrong
No, here, here's where we belong
I see a road ahead
I've never thought i would dare to tread
Like an image passing by, my love, my life
In the mirror of your eyes, my love, my life
I can see it all so clearly
All i love so dearly
Images passing by
Like reflections of your mind, my love, my life
Are the words I try to find, my love, my life
But I know I don't posses you
With all my heart, God bless you
You will be my love and my life
You're my one and only
I held you close to me
Felt your heartbeat and I thought I am free
Oh, yes and as one are we
And I know I'm beyond
Nothing and no one can break this heart
Like an image passing by, my love, my life
In the mirror of your eyes, my love, my life
I can see it all so clearly
All our love so dearly
Images passing by
Like reflections of your mind, my love, my life
Are the words I try to find, my love, my life
But I know I don't posses you
With all my heart, God bless you
You're still my love and my life
Yes, I know don't possess you
With all my heart, God bless you
You're still my love and my life
You're my one and only
Excellent! 👏🏼👍👍
