ABBA Reaction - S.O.S ( Live 1975)

[@richardjansson1]

USA missed out on the ABBA phenomenon back in the day. The rest of the world was sooooo in love with them!

[@aeh8446]

ABBA is extremely diversified, will shock you, incredible arrangements and pioneers in the studio!!! Very cool history!!! Among top sellers of all time!!! Go down the ABBA rabbit hole, enjoy the ride!!!

[@shakharsungh1635]

Gosh, that blonde voice is the most beautiful sound I ever heard, how can someone be so gifted is mind-blowing and she is strikingly beautiful as will my goodness.

[@RickDanner]

i agree with you 100%

[@steffichristina4259]

Ja das ist sie definitiv. Aber Frida in gleicher Weise. Beide Abba Mädels waren unerreicht!!❤❤❤🧡

[@NostalgicMem0ries]

not just voice, she one of most beautiful women of 70s

[@williamjones6031]

1. I had a huge crush on Agnetha (blonde) 2. This band was part of what made 70s music great. All on the same station you can hear this group, Elton John, David Bowie, The Doobie Brothers, The Eagles and Alice Cooper and not miss a beat.

[@thebops4180]

And ELO :)

[@holgerschink1341]

This band is unique and brilliant ! Love their music until i was a kid. 😍

[@kylecompton3305]

Love your reaction and your appreciation for this group. They were a bit underrated in the US, but the rest of the world worshipped them. They sold 500,000,000 million albums, up there with The Beatles and Michael, and had 20 albums and 28 HITS. Check out 'The Winner Takes it All', Chiquitita', 'The Name of the Game' and 'Gimme Gimme Gimme' All amazing pop standards! If you've seen the movie 'Mamma Mia' then you will have heard most of their hits. Every song in that movie is their song, recorded by various cast members. ENJOY!

[@phila3884]

Not only a fun song, many famous musicians have said this is one of the greatest pop songs ever written.

[@Flokarl1]

As you are reacting to music ....You have found a Goldmine in Abba :-) I love them....real voices, no autotune , real people. And Kings and Queens in the 70`s...Keep reacting to them and we will eventually be many,many who are popping into your channel on a daily basis :-)

[@cw-crazyworld8259]

Hi, thanks for react to ABBA, they were the BIGGEST here in europe, not only in the seventies, they are big today, and there are so many brilliant songs fromm ABBA you ca react, too, Thanks and please go on with ABBA, they are genius...

[@deannascott8050]

Agnetha and Frida looked so beautiful in this one- loved those outfits. And, of course, they all sound so amazing.

[@rythmblood27]

It's obvious how incredible they were. This song might be my favorite from ABBA. And Agnetha.....OMG.

I'm so happy I discovered your channel!! I'm 64, did much growing up in the 1970s and a huge ABBA fan! They are amazing with so much variety and excellence. Keep them in your playlist for sure!

watching the lady reacting to the video is the best. Her body language goes from lukewarm to happy. Ihat is what ABBA can do.

[@chamberlainwonder369]

Jesus christ of nazarrete. ABBA have been the greatest thing that happen in music n they gona be around forever with classics

[@Muckylittleme]

Abba were the pinnacle of Pop for me, hit after hit after catchy hit and cute girls :)

[@michaelhillman4654]

They had a ton of great hits in addition to Dancing Queen. The song writing team of Andersson and Ulvaeus is every bit as prolific as Lennon and Mc Cartney. I do not not think I ever heard ABBA do a cover song because they had so many songs that came from their minds, that they did not have to cover. They rightfully went into the ROCK AND ROLL HALL OF FAME in 2010. One of the greatest pop bands ever. They should never be underrated.

[@brucethrasher8551]

I couldn't find a single cover they did. That's part of the reason I'm a huge fan.

[@mohammedjamil2277]

For me they sang so many great songs with fantastic lyrics however this is for me is there absolute best song love it so much emotion and passion in the performance. ❤❤❤

[@paulknight9998]

4:10 I assure you that only americans tend to think that ABBA only had one hit.

[@bucknaked31]

Paul Knight I don’t know what you mean by that... they had many hits here...

[@BardOfAndromeda]

Only one number 1 in the US though. In the UK, one of the toughest and most competitive music markets - especially in the 70s and 80s - they had no less than NINE No.1 hits and twenty Top 10 hits :)

@@BardOfAndromeda what is their only hit in US? Dancing queen, I guess?

[@BardOfAndromeda]

Only underrated in the US, actually. Globally speaking they are (according to some sources) statistically the second bestselling group/band (not including soloists) of all time next to the Beatles! :)

[@BlackavarWD]

Underrated? "You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means."

[@Zebred2001]

Great reaction! Always liked their Waterloo, Take A Chance On Me and Bang A Boomerang.

[@ramonsobreira8061]

Just one word: WOW

[@stevemariman8769]

Hey, Mojo. You might really also like the audio version of SOS. It's got an incredible sound, full of stereo depth Moog layers, the live performance barely hints at, and was a huge hit on the radio, in 1975, certainly on heavy rotation. Pete Townsend, of the Who, says it "transported" him, when he heard it, and Elvis Costello says it's his "favorite pop song ever." I hope you check it out. It'd make a great reaction, too!

[@amarillagriffin7427]

The were around for ten years we loved them in the UK listen to the Piper by abba.

[@briancoffey4581]

Hey Hey Mojo! Howdy Lady Max! ABBA was and is a guilty pleasure for me as well. Hard to deny the polished, catchy, clear sound they brought to the table. For the record, I was a Frida guy (the dark-haired one}! Shame the marriages both ended, but they certainly left behind a giant musical footprint.

Those kitty cat dresses. Love them. It is interesting how he used the honky tonk piano (the instrument not the style) to create a unique effect.

[@teddouglas3496]

Brilliant More ABBA please 🙏🙏🙏🙏

[@Victoria_Orlova]

ABBA is lovely

[@onsesejoo2605]

If you want to hear them more in disco vein, please react to their song "Summernight City". It was one of the songs in the 70's that combined disco and rock elements.

[@philbell5774]

Abba wrote so many timeless pop songs but can I suggest you listen to their song Eagle the best thing they ever recorded in my opinion.

[@thisworldofwater8017]

Oh boy. For Eagle, I can only use the pompous word "transcendental". It is a stupefying piece of music. The full-length album version!

[@kimmokurikka2334]

Eagle is the diamond among their gems

[@tikku123]

SOS is an awesome song - Agnetha Also did a solo version in Swedish - same backing Track - this version is lip synced - they rarely performed live 😊

[@snpok524]

3rd biggest selling artists in the world

[@1nelsondj]

Abba is a guilty pleasure for me, they crafted a lot of perfect pop songs, very talented producers as well as performers. That looked like lip-syncing to me though, not live.

[@bruso679]

ABBA usually lip-synched when they did appearances on shows. They sang "live" in concert, though. Here's a link to "S.O.S" "live": - Watch "ABBA "SOS" (ABBA in Japan 1978) HQ" on KZbin kzbin.info/www/bejne/amOlnK2Npa6qas0

[@thisworldofwater8017]

1) "Guilty pleasure" - I will never learn to understand this. Why should anyone feel guilty about liking something unless it's, say, Nazism? Presumably you're not 13 years old, so there shouldn't be that kind of peer pressure either. Sorry for singling you out, but that phrase makes me despair for humankind. 2) Yes, this was definitely a playback. Here's some live action from Australia (1976). They were at their best in the studio, though, creating magic. kzbin.info/www/bejne/eoG3hntvmd-bpa8

[@suziejane1008]

NOT lyp synched

[@suziejane1008]

Any singer can see that.

[@Pixelologist]

@@suziejane1008 I think it's pretty clearly lip-synched. No bass player on the stage; no drummer; Benny playing what's clearly an acoustic piano yet there's an electronic keyboard in the mix. That's definitely the studio-recorded track.

[@larswara2124]

Yeah..you guys are truly impressed....

Well if you have the time, can you search for the Waterloo at Eurovision performance? That was what put them on the map. And then, Andante, Andante (very sensual). They are quite good and they are like magnets, drawing you into their spell. I hope you will try.
