Sweden, Sweden, Sweden, what talents you create! What is it with this little country in the North? Answer: one of their treasures is / has been that they have a natural aptitude for singing and for music in general. It is in their genes. See for example "allsång på Skansen", Stockholm, where they meet and sing together once a week in the summertime. And their people's soul goes very, very deep. ABBA was one of the very first artists to be known outside of Scandinavia. A big hug from Norway, neighbour of Sweden.
I like your reaction, you enjoyed the song without interrumpting it. How important it is! Lots of reaction channels don't understand this. The feelings along a masterpiece like this, how they can take you to another world for some minutes.

It stands out especially when stretch monosyllables with great quality and beauty "Chiquitita" was composed especially for the UNICEF Concert, premiered that night (January 9, 1979) and its royalties are eternal for UNICEF "Chiquitita" was ABBA's greatest success in Latin America, that prompted ABBA to record it in Spanish, and its success was so extraordinary that in the following year ABBA recorded a full album with their best songs entirely in Spanish ("Chiquitita" in Spanish is the biggest ABBA hit in My country Argentina) This promotional video was in February 1979 in Swizterland (ABBA goes for a TV Special) It's the only promotional video that ABBA made without Sweden I wish to see you soon in another reactions to ABBA songs Don't forget my suggest of "Waterloo" at Eurovision Song Contest in UK 1974, when and where the history of ABBA is born GOD bless you and stay safe My best regards from Buenos Aires, Argentina

Una canción muy hermosa, también la cantaron en español. Fue muy popular a finales de los 70's y principios de los 80's. Gracias por tu reacción y por activarle subtítulos.
Thanks for the ABBA. The United Nations declared 1979 the year of the child. A concert to fund UNICEF was put on by the Bee Gees. ABBA wrote and performed Chiquitita (Little One). Then they set up for all the profits from the song (It's one of their biggest) to go to UNICEF. They still go there to this day.
I think that Chiquitita must be a term of endearment, as for the snow, Abba's Swedish record company was called Polar Records! This should help explain much of their warm dress, and snowy backgrounds!
As it`s nearly CHRISTMAS TIME YEEEEAAAAAHHHHH ! try Wham`s Last Christmas or Mariah Carey`s All I Want For Christmas,,or even both, think you`ll love `em. in fact you WILL love them and still loving your mad fun reactions.
Videos were done with more freelance and there was a bit of comedy in the huge snowman in this winter seen. Back then, the music is all that mattered. Visual was secondary.
I am from Mexico and Spanish is my mother language. Let me explain the term "chiquitita" to you: 1. It all starts with the adjective "chico" (masculine) or "chica" (feminine), which means small. When referring to a person, it means a young boy or girl, not necessarily a kid or toddler but rather a young person. 2. In informal Latin American Spanish, we add the "ito" or "ita" ending to adjectives to minimize their meaning. So, in this case, we add "ita" to "chica" and it first transforms into "chiquita", meaning an even smaller thing. When referring to a person, it means a small girl or little girl but the "ita" ending also adds the meaning of affection to it so it means a young o little girl for whom we feel affection. 3. By adding an additional "ita" to the same adjective we keep stressing the meaning of small or, in the case of a person, the meaning of a little person and even more affection. So the word "chiquita" becomes "chiquitita": a very young or little girl for whom we feel a lot of affection. 4. We could keep adding "ita" endings to keep stressing the same meaning but the word starts sounding too exaggerated: "chiquititita" or "chiquitititita" (meaning really tiny in the case of an object), but in the case of a person it is too exaggerated so it starts making no sense. So the BEST word to express love an affection for a little young girl is "chiquitita", the song name. 5. "Chiquitita" is NOT a name, like Laura or Maria or Susan. It is an ADJECTIVE. So in this song, the singer is talking to a very young and little girl for whom the singer feels a lot of affection and whose heart has been broken or is extremely sad for some reason. For me, it is a song about hope, motivation, and resilience. It is a song about support and about finding the strength to move forward in life even when we feel devastated. The last part of the song, the piano solo, is my favorite segment because I interpret it as the moment when the chiquitita, struggling to find energy and strength within her, finally gets up, wipes her tears off, and starts walking again. It is a beautiful song that also makes me cry every time I listen to it, at the beginning because of the sadness and then again at the end because of the hope it conveys. Regards from Mexico City
I love and "adore" this song, but I never understood why the video takes place in a winter atmosphere which truly looks polar. I would suggest a South American feeling or smoethin which somehow "feels Spanish" ;-)
The day my grandma died this song was played at her funeral in Chile . It was her favorite and I knew it , and everytime I hear it, it brings tears to my eyes!
ABBA songs have a strange way of making you happy but sad and emotional at the same time. Their music is beautiful, inspiring simply beautiful.
Well said friend
Nailed it
on the oint👍🏼
Es un sonido EXTAORDINARIO!!!

yes, while English language was their second languge, the group ABBA made it happen to be loved all over the world.
One of the most talented and iconic groups of all time! Almost every song was a hit! Great reaction by the way!
I like your reaction, you enjoyed the song without interrumpting it. How important it is! Lots of reaction channels don't understand this. The feelings along a masterpiece like this, how they can take you to another world for some minutes.
They attribute it to copyrights and being blocked.
I'm so glad you were here again to continue with your reactions to ABBA songs, another of my ABBA Top 5!
several things to say about "Chiquitita" and it's context in 1979
"Chiquitita" (it means 'little girl' in spanish) is a beautiful song, it has hopeful lyrics, a melody that starts very soft with Agnetha's solo, then grows and explodes in a powerful chorus; Agnetha & Frida's vocal harmonies are of excellence
It allows us to check how excellent singers Agnetha & Frida are and what harmonies of excellence they achieve. It stands out especially when stretch monosyllables with great quality and beauty
"Chiquitita" was composed especially for the UNICEF Concert, premiered that night (January 9, 1979) and its royalties are eternal for UNICEF
"Chiquitita" was ABBA's greatest success in Latin America, that prompted ABBA to record it in Spanish, and its success was so extraordinary that in the following year ABBA recorded a full album with their best songs entirely in Spanish
("Chiquitita" in Spanish is the biggest ABBA hit in My country Argentina)
This promotional video was in February 1979 in Swizterland
(ABBA goes for a TV Special)
It's the only promotional video that ABBA made without Sweden
I wish to see you soon in another reactions to ABBA songs
Don't forget my suggest of "Waterloo" at Eurovision Song Contest in UK 1974, when and where the history of ABBA is born
GOD bless you and stay safe
My best regards from
Buenos Aires, Argentina
La palabra "Chiquitita" en español significa "mujer pequeña" o puede ser niña. En inglés sería "little woman".
God bless ABBA for this music
To the best of my memory from school language classes, Chiquitita means 'Little one'. Very Good Reactions.
Absolutely awesome song, Ty great job.=)
Royaltes this song all for UNICEF 😊😊
...Bjorn and Agnetha had decided by now to separate and divorce,they had had a massive row just before this video was filmed but ever the true professionals,they carried on and did what they had to do...
*Legal voce admirar o ABBA...Voce é linda .beijos*
ABBA is one of the very best!! Glad you found them!!

Lovely reactions - a real pleasure to watch you 😊😊💖💖
Why are you not crying? It gets me every time, especially the chorus. GLORIOUS!!
But is it Chiquitita or Chicken Tika? (Sorry but it is on my 'miss-heared lyrics' list)
your face says it all - magic!
"Chiquitita" in spanish means "little girl". ◙ Sou fã do ABBA e fico muito feliz com essas reações.
What a beautiful smile girl, loved this reaction 🙌🏾
Thanks for the ABBA. The United Nations declared 1979 the year of the child. A concert to fund UNICEF was put on by the Bee Gees. ABBA wrote and performed Chiquitita (Little One). Then they set up for all the profits from the song (It's one of their biggest) to go to UNICEF. They still go there to this day.
Yes. True. All profits in all eternity, goes to UNICEF program to help young girls around the World.
This song has probably donated more to UNICEF than a good fraction of the countries in the world
You are so adorable!! Great job kid!!!
When you live in Sweden you too can have a big snowman if you want one.
I float far in the air with their voices! Such a lovely song :)) With their voices, I soar.
Its "little child" in Italian I think
What a lovely, tender
and empathic song!
Thank you for your great videos. Is your heart ❤ ready for the last song by Abba? Old to freedom please video reactions.
I like your react everytiime, hope you can react to abba new album voyage
Hi sis, love your simple honest reaction.
Thanks for reacting to this Gracie Abba has such a unique sound.
I think that Chiquitita must be a term of endearment, as for the snow, Abba's Swedish record company was called Polar Records! This should help explain much of their warm dress, and snowy backgrounds!
Первый раз?! Are you kidding?

I think I should tell people to drop Christmas requests and post them all December 😁😁😁
You should react to Duran Duran's "Rio" music video! It's a like a little movie.
The joy on her fave when she first heard the chorus was so beautiful
Queen - Innuendo (Official Video)
Spanish version is the best as Spanish is a much more melodic language, as Frida noted on singing in this language.
The best out of Sweden nothing better
I am Brazilian. I live in Brazil. I like your video! 🙂💖.
Abba foi um excelente grupo musical!!!👏

ABBA is a national treasure, and Chiquitita is one of their best. Sing once more, like you did before. Sing a new song, Chiquitita.
❤
That’s the definition of perfection.
Ahhh.....ABBA....so great!!!👍
Hello, play Wooden Heart by Elvis, it's a song from the movie G.I. Blues
The music is stunning, especially in the Spanish version. Agnete looks and sounds angelic.
