Abba - One Of Us (Official Video) REACTION

[@stephallan2543]

A funny story of my crazy childhood, I first became a fan hearing this incredible musical talented group playing on American Bandstand “SOS” and then a trip to Mexico hearing them sing in Spanish!! I wore these records and tapes out and my Dad had to hear them continuously...he claimed he was tired of it. Finally, he remarried and my Stepmother was even a bigger FAN than I was back then at the age of 16 yrs. WOW 😲Thank you for these beautiful memories! 👍🏽💕👏🏽❄️🎄🕊

[@romedo75]

Fantastic bassline on this song.

[@joyparry9354]

I love your reactions to ABBA - the reason they were so successful was because their songs touched people's hearts & their music was just beautiful!

[@lionheartroar3104]

Abba created a beauty not found in anyone else's music. A league of their own.

[@Taurusman58]

ABBA .. great voices , lyrics , saw them in 1979 .. there tracks .. still as good today .

[@JONAS-co4ut]

Agnetha Fältskog's solo vocals are stand out - simply wonderful!

[@michaeltomkinson134]

She’s one beautiful lady and she still is today and what a voice 💙

[@leonardonewtont5474]

Abba, one of the best musical groups in history. Musical ensemble that won practically everything, on music awards. It is one of my favorite groups.

[@discogareth]

I love your ABBA reactions soooo much!

[@stevemccormack9948]

Yes, ABBA will explode right into your heart. And if it feels good then go ahead.

[@bpfromowc]

It often brings a tear to my eye when i watch your reviews James (mostly the Abba ones) , it takes me back to when i first discovered these great songs & it shows me that humanity is still alive. Abba singing The Way Old Friends Do (live in London) is one that will make the hairs on the back of your neck stand up. Top man. ✌️

[@ludojacobs7846]

This is exactly what I feel when watching these videos!

[@fodsaks]

I grew up in the 70's in the UK and I can tell you that every new Abba single was really kind of an event. Loving your reactions to this great group. You are a man of taste.

[@joseluisduranferro2825]

Asi como tu, en estos momentos he pasado mi vida, unas veces con los ojos encharcados al sentirme parte de cada cancion, y otras veces bailando sin parar al ritmo de sus canciones, este grupo nunca me dejo, siempre estuvo ahi llenando espacios que nadie mas podia llenar y aun hoy a mis 63 años siguen convirtiendome en aquel romantico joven de ayer. Gracias JBLETHAL.

'The day before you came' is another classic worth listening to

definitely. catches scandinavian melancholy like no other song of theirs.

[@Arvegas]

Yes, make sure you react to the official video of "The Day Before You Came" and then look at the lyrics, it will blow you away something serious if you lived something similar to what is sung in that song.

One of my favourite ABBA songs. Thanks for this. I was 8 when this came out, and it was to be their last #1 hit.

[@nirmalsuki]

This song was made AFTER both the couples had divorced, but they had so much good music to give the world that they stuck together as long as they did. It wasn't about money or fame for them. It was about artistic expression.

@@withinjapan2024 i think abba were one of the best bands ever or best band because there music taps in to lots of different emotions and can make you feel happy and sad at the same time and when they have emotional song the lyrics are sad but the melody makes you feel good very unique also looking forward to the 2 new abba songs that will be released next year. and probible abba has the most cachiest music and they never strain or oversing and are in complete harmony.

As a swede born in the early 70s,I have loved them forever.And I think they have helped me appreciate good music, no matter the genre,from Sex Pistols to Tjajkovskij..the world of music is endless. Abba is timeless,and this song is a favv. You should watch some liveperformences of theirs-I highly recommend live at Wembley- "Does your mother know",or "Hole in your soul".They will rock your socks off!And "The way old friends do" is an Anthem! I love your channel,its so much fun to see you discover some gems! ps.Growing up w the likes of Queen,Bowie,etc etc -I do feel spoiled,in a wonderful way! Keep up the good work!

[@e.s.7272]

Other wonderful songs by ABBA: "Gimme! Gimme! Gimme!", "Voulez-Vous", "Summer Night City", "Slipping Through My Fingers", "I Wonder"

[@thehoogard]

[@ralphhendriks1460]

ABBA wrote the best break up songs! Simply the best.

[@willswomble7274]

Absolute, utter perfection, over and over again, over all the decades since they released them. Weep and turn the track on once more.....

[@Hi-kq1vi]

Agnetha's hair was superb from 1980-1982, Bjorn's beard really suited him as well. One of my favourite Abba songs as a kid in 1981 & still today. Head Over Heels came out not long after this & is another superb song & funny video.

[@cultosaur262]

This is another grand ABBA track that just never gets enough play over the years! They have so many tremendous songs aside from their ubiquitous hits we know so well by heart. Excellent choice for reaction. Well done. Check out Maggie Reilly “Moonlight Shadow” with Mike Oldfield from early 80s, I think you will get a kick out of it bro! 🎶🎤🎸💪🏻🤙🏻😎

[@mlo3784]

So great watching you discover and 'becoming fan' of one of the biggest (and best) pop groups of all time! There is a reason why they have sold more then 350 million albums and singles and were the first act there was released on CD (mainstream) - with 'The Visitors' in 1981 ;)

[@brt5273]

This was actually filmed in the video director's (Lasse Hallström's) own home. He did almost every video for ABBA. The Group is as Always proving why they are one of the most famous groups in the World. Such a beautiful melancholy song. I also love the Beautiful effects in the video, created solely by mirrors!

[@veggem]

Try Eagle by ABBA - in a different vein from most of their other songs plus it's my favourite song by them

[@myoung6204]

'The way old friends do' is a brilliant Abba song. You'll love it!! X

[@littleblackpistol]

Oh, this is one of the great ABBA songs ... Agnetha's vocals are so beautiful and pain-filled. So many ABBA songs have this sweet melancholy that's so very Swedish. You might also want to check out Kate Bush if you haven't already, btw. Try The Sensual World, Wuthering Heights and Running Up That Hill to start with. Then Breathing, Babooshka, The Man With the Child in His Eyes, A Coral Room. You're welcome.

Lovely coming back to this nearly two years after first found your channel, and hearing you say _"Nearly nine thousand subscribers - I'm almost there!"_ And now look at you, not far off *100,000* subscribers! 🏆 What a journey. Hope you're still loving Abba and female vocalists! 🤗😘

[@vendelayindustries]

I have lots of female favourites; Linda Ronstadt, Francoise Hardy, Nancy Sinatra, Mireille Mathieu, Jill Johnson, Debbie Harry. They are fantastic! Another ABBA-song you should react to is "The day Before you came", one of the very last recordings they did. Beautiful video as well. Concidered a flop at the time of release in 1982, but it has been re-discovered by fans later, and is now concidered one of their all-time greatest!

Thanks for the Abba reactions, there simply aren't enough of them.
