So happy they chose the version they did: Frida's hair was far too calm in the alternate clip :-)

This was filmed by the BBC for "ABBA in Switzerland" in March/April 79 I think. If memory serves it was for a Europe wide Easter TV program. The were problems with the weather so I believe it was shot at least twice, but someone I used to know who was there says it might have been more. Great song & all royalties went to Music for UNICEF Still the best group ever as far as I'm concerned.

Are you sure it was as late as 79? Agnetha had the very long hair, but I think in the end of the 70s she had it cut quite shorter. If you for instance see Wembly 76 or 77, she looked different. The long hair was in her younger years

@@Xayja2 Yep, I'm certain. Just to make sure, I checked. www.imdb.com/title/tt2603598/ As a BTW I saw them live at Wembley Arena in November 79 & her hair was about the same.

Not just the best vocals, best harmonies, these two beautiful persons, angels, communicate through eye contact, smiles, happiness and sadness that you know they are real people that make an impect in your life and makes it richer. Thank you very much for the video, it made my day.

I remember that I as a kid in 1979 was very impressed. Not just with the song, but also with the snowman! I wondered if they built it themselves. :-)

In the alternative version Agnetha doesn't seem to be looking at the camera and in the official version I think Frida is laughing with Benny because of the wind teasing her face 💨🤦♀😂 My favourite ABBA song, so much emotion every time I listen to it 😭

Правильную версию выбрали, Агнета смотрит в камеру, а этого все ждут- контакта с ее глазами, не так выраженно отстраняется от Бьёрна, с которым только что рассталась, больше гармонии в образе группы) Но они прекрасны в любом виде. И высочайшего уровня профессионалы

Ha ha! Fridas hair had a life of it's own here. They filmed this in a studio and I guess the big fans were aimed mostly at Frida.

They filmed filmed this video in a studio not an actual mountain top. They must have just been experimenting with lighting and the big fans they had blowing on them. That's why Fridas hair blowing so hard in the chosen version. The fans must have been mostly on her

@@Vikinggirl1679 LOL. No, this was filmed outside on a mountain side above the Swiss ski resort of Leysin . In other film, one of the chair lifts can even be seen operating in the background. ABBA filmed this as part of a TV Special. The Jackson Five were also there for another programme. You can see the giant snowman here too. kzbin.info/www/bejne/o5_LoaGjdrOmZ6c

@@Vikinggirl1679 This music video was filmed on a mountain side. You are getting things a little mixed up. In January 1979, ABBA were in the Unicef TV special but that was in the United Nations building in New York. That was when they donated the royalties from 'Chiquitita' to Unicef. A month later, this video with the snowman was filmed at the same time as the 'ABBA in Switzerland' TV Special in Leysin. Please look at the Jackson Five video I linked above or watch this 'behind the scenes' footage from when ABBA visited. You can see the snowman in the background and a chair lift moving in the distance. The official 'Chiquitita' music video was clearly filmed outside on a mountain. I don't know where the idea that it was in a studio started but that is an urban myth. They really are on a mountain top. Hopefully this finally proves it to you. Pay particular attention to the central part of this film that shows the location then zooms into the giant circus tent in the valley below where ABBA performed songs in the TV show..... kzbin.info/www/bejne/oaiydGdnntGfhJo
