ABBA's Best Song? | TCC REACTS TO ABBA - My Love, My Life

[@marleenwaggoner2597]

You should see the actual video of Agnetha singing this. Her expressions are unbelievable and so real it's one of her best, if not THE BEST!

[@arielalonso6886]

I agree.

[@christianoazzuro6711]

Yeah that clip was really special.She looks so beautiful and fragile there that it makes you want to wrap your arms around her and hold her tight.

[@jay_ooh]

I still feel this could have been added to the Voyage setlist with no problem at all!!!

[@Tom_McMurtry]

yah he's missed out until he watches one of those - I said this in a seperate comment: Watch a video of Agnetha performing it on stage and you will be even more amazed - you could maybe even do a video react with Marissa watching the performance on stage together if she hasn't seen this one yet, or even if she has :)) Voulez-Vous or kisses of fire are both ABBA songs that i reccomend getting to soon for some energy, or Adante Adante by ABBA for a beautiful soaring ballad with its own kind of energy. Move On by ABBA for soul and awe and meaning and just pure beautiful sound

[@richardscanlan3419]

it absolutely is the best.

[@nellies]

One of their most beautiful songs, it's angelic!

[@ricardoelorza613]

Man, this one really got you! Only bands like ABBA can leave you floored like that with their unique harmonies, melodies and lyrics magic potion.

[@dhekelia133]

This is one of my two favourite ABBA tracks, along with The Winner Takes It All. The production is perfect and Agnetha is at the top of her game........ again! Arrival has always been my favourite album of theirs, but thats not knocking the other albums. everyone has lots of bangers on them.

[@jamesforbes1353]

Agnetha can just punch straight to the heart - it's hard not to get emotional.

[@thiagovazorbolato4447]

Abba is simply incredible, I admire seeing a young person contemplating the songs and feeling the harmonies of each song. I recommend reading the group's biography, you will be surprised by the entire history and legacy of the group.

[@oscaromega3933]

"My love my life" (1976) from the album "Arrival" I think it's the most symphonic melody of all ABBA songs although now "Ode to Freedom" (2021) could be added, from their latest album "Voyage" in any case, the orchestral and choral arrangements are magnificent, of excellence and exception, to back the moving and powerful vocal performance of blonde soprano Agnetha Fãltskog this is another example of the heartbreaking and breakup lyrics that ABBA does so well, and that especially works wonders for Agnetha, the ultimate storyteller, the angel of melancholy a saga could be made with the break songs that Agnetha leads in ABBA a Top5 could be, chronologically: Disillusion (1973) SOS (1975) My love my life (1976) The Winner Takes It All (1980) One of Us (1981)

[@evedavey2475]

Agnetha has a beautiful voice 😍

[@stevenleroux7033]

After all these years hearing this song I still get goosebumps

[@dmr8914]

It is so amazing to see a guy who was NOT around in the 70's react to a song the same way i did when i was a tad younger than you. I feel vindicated for the persecution i got for my love of ABBA back then. I have to say that of all the vinyl i sold off... i have kept EVERY ABBA LP and single i ever bought. They are me. I just couldnt part with them.

[@1964paulsmith]

Another ABBA song that could easily have been a number one. Just beautiful. Thank you Tyler.

[@christianoazzuro6711]

Meryl Streep and Amanda share an impactful performance of this gem as a duo to the semi final scene of the MM!2 movie.People next to me were sobbing.I pretended not to... lol!

[@andreasbauer7285]

Benny considers this song as one of the best he has ever written. Listen to the piano version on his "Benny Andersson Piano" album! There you can really fully appreciate the melody. It is so beautiful. This piano album can be considered a "Best Of Benny Andersson". All the melodies he wrote and really loves are on that album. If you want a list of the melodies Benny himself considers the best he ever wrote, look no further than this album. "I Let The Music Speak" is the first track on that album, this should tell you enough. "Thank You For The Music" and "The Day Before You Came" are on there too. But also songs from his musicals Chess and Kristina, as well as melodies he wrote for Benny Anderssons Orkester.

[@robertschatz7781]

As always, a fantastic reaction to ABBA. I suggest you guys react to Move on for the following ABBA reaction.

[@christianoazzuro6711]

"Move oN"!a real diamond.Both music and lyrics in both English and .Spanish version.

[@j.k.1963]

Yes, this maybe is their best when it comes to aiming straight at the listeners emotional core. And Agnetha giving it her all. I love that! Productionwise another perfect song. Musically they were able to keep it small, where the lyrics took the stage.

[@cannedmusic]

Frida has a solo piece called To Turn the Stone you may like.

[@huntley3999]

Terrific song-harmonies, lyrics, vocals, melody....BTW Tyler you are one hot lad!

[@radman8321]

Spot on with the movie comment. Used to great effect in one of the Mamma Mia films. Brings me to tears every time I see it.

[@Zinatra]

I say it again, Abbas' music is amazing! They evoke so much emotion. It's awesome ❤️Both Agnetha and Frida sing like the stars they were born to 👑.Benny's music and Björn's lyrics create magic ⭐⭐So please, keep going through their songs.🎵🎶🕺🏿👍

[@billy852]

This song is incredible. It is all about letting someone go. And how it hurts.

[@marcodebrabander5751]

Who else can deliver this song like this, but Agnetha!

[@loevet2]

This is my favourite ABBA song, and I think I have heard them all. It´s not very well known, so I was very glad when they chose to sing it in Mamma Mia 2.

[@lenaengell8528]

Wow! What a song and what a reaction! Thank you VERY much, Tyler! Love, Lena

[@Tom_McMurtry]

:)) Watch a video of Agnetha performing it on stage and you will be even more amazed - you could maybe even do a video react with Marissa watching the performance o stage together if she hasn't seen this one yet, or even if she has :)) Voulez-Vous or kisses of fire are both ABBA songs that i reccomend getting to soon for some energy, or Adante Adante by ABBA for a beautiful soaring ballad with its own kind of energy.

[@polmus]

Didn't realise that you had reacted to this, I have recommended it, but it would be nice to see the both of you react to it :)

[@christopher3d475]

Benny & Bjorn would go onto write some of the very best ballad type songs post-ABBA. Listen to music from CHESS (Someone Else's Story, Anthem, I Know Him So Well), and from their second musical Kristina Fran Duvemala (Du Maste Finnas, Guldet Blev Till Sand). My Love, My Life is an early song in this vein.

[@jorgenfrinell5369]

Indeed lyrics in combination is so heartbreaking. Wonderful how you get it so much. It could be a lost love but also a child that died. Makes my cry every time. A masterpiece of a song and performance.

[@jeyoung65]

Cassandra is an amazing song. If you know about the mythology of Cassandra (Greek): Cassandra was loved by the god Apollo, who promised her the power of prophecy if she would comply with his desires. Cassandra accepted the proposal, received the gift, and then refused the god her favors. Apollo revenged himself by ordaining that her prophecies should never be believed.

[@roderickwilliams-young]

Your ABBA reaction videos are so cool. Love seeing your reactions to these amazing songs . Keep it up sir!

[@israelluna2000]

This song is wonderful to belt out while driving by myself. :D

[@auntvesuvi3872]

Thanks, Tyler! 🪞 This one resonates so deeply in my soul... and the vocals elevate the lyrics to an insane degree. Of course, the lyrics were changed to paint an entirely different mood in MAMMA MIA (2008)... and as effectively. #TylerCreatesContent #MyLoveMyLife #ABBA

[@joelsondiedrichs9543]

Wonderful ABBA. Great job. 👏👏👏

[@paulcardsfan]

Yes the Video of Agnetha is fantastic with special affects and her ❤️ expression and how she presents the song you can't duplicate. Must see for sure .

[@riaanbehr7976]

I can't wait for your reaction to Move on. I just know you're gonna have a similar reaction 😉👌

[@edned5504]

1'45" I thought you were going to cry. But you stopped the music in time and made a recovery. This song seems to be a version of the aphorism 'if you love something, let it go free'. A great reaction TCC. And jolly good news about Marissa's impending return.

[@michaele7880]

Knew you would love this song. It’s my favourite abba song.

[@swifty8503]

Amazing song, one of their best

[@aidemaidem7328]

"Thank you for the music" for the next one! Great harmonies and chords

[@brandoncruz3102]

Great! Can we get a re reaction of when i kissed the teacher, one of us, slipping through my fingers and that's me but with marissa? :)

[@jamiew6438]

Am sure Benny said My Love, My Life is ' over produced ' . Not sure what that means , it is a renowned balled amongst ABBA fans .

[@oxoelfoxo]

I think he meant a stripped down, more acoustic sounding instrumentals would have been a better accompaniment to the vocals and maybe fewer harmonies. There's a cover duet by two schoolgirls on YT that I really like. It's the only duet I've found that uses the original lyrics and not the Mamma Mia version. Love the harmonizing there and it's a simpler arrangement of course since it's just a casual video with a backing track.

[@jamiew6438]

@German Morawski I can't find the quote. He said it while talking about another song , he referenced MYMY to make a point .

[@aeproductionstm1150]

Try "Move on" please🥺

[@gordonfinlayson7493]

I enjoy your stuff.

[@geordieboy8945]

That one seemed to get to you on a personal level. Marissa has missed some classics, it would be good to know she got the chance to hear them and lets us know in the next ABBA post. Take care.

[@Tom_McMurtry]

when Tyler shows them to marrissa I reckon they could both watch Agnetha perform it on stage

[@TylerCreatesContent]

she’ll hear it today don’t worry :)

[@dreasbn]

Not really mine at all.. too sugary for me but the pure piano version from Benny really got me… very seldom that I prefer an instrumental version over the vocal one. But on Benny‘s solo piano album are several version very revealing and interesting… another one would be the piano version of The Day Before You Came.. check’em out

[@eduardooscar309]

I don't agree absolutly "My love my life" is almost a masterpiece Is the most gorgeous ABBA song

[@dreasbn]

yep everyone is entiteteld to have its own take on songs and music.. i'd rather prefer you to post an ode to the song than disagreeing with my opinion....

[@otisblack3921]

How ya liking your Agnetha journey? She is an absolute deity and an occasional minx:). So much fun! Check out her sass on “Kisses of Fire”……if you can find the live (not live) version performed in Switzerland where she wears her pink tuxedo suit you may want to pick out your casket now because when you see it you will DIE!

[@alexioverdo5225]

Oh my GOD!This video is a must!First 40 seconds of her facial close up shots and the melody of that intro can melt a whole icebirg.

An amendment to my comment. Marissa like to hear the guys sing... Maybe Dance, While the Music Still Goes On from the Waterloo Album for her first time back!

[@marleenwaggoner2597]

@@claytonsnider9420 Dance While the Music Still Goes on or Another Town, Another Train, sung by Bjorn and one of their older songs too. Either one of them would be great!!

[@DavidNiklas-q4v]

Please do voulez vous, cassandra and head over heels (the music video is quite funny) next :)

[@The_Jupiter2_Mission]

Benny thinks My Love My Life was over produced. He likely wanted something closer to what they did with it in Mama Mia- Here We Go Again on reflection. They subsequently stripped down I Wonder on Abba- The Album but it paled in comparison with the live version from the Australian Tour and on the B side of Name Of The Game. Sometimes a big enveloping sound is what can make a track really standout.

[@rdwulf6289]

I Wonder (album version) is probably my all time favourite Abba vocal. Each to their own.

[@The_Jupiter2_Mission]

@German Morawski He likely preferred his arrangement used in Mama Mia Here We Go Again.

[@The_Jupiter2_Mission]

@German Morawski True. Easy to critique your own work on reflection. Benny should regret more his overuse of all that synth stuff that he used on their latter work. Some of their material got more and more artificial with barely any original instrumentation used. It set in on Super trouper and their final 4 or five songs were very subpar with Benny more concerned with beats and artificial sounds. I longed to hear a simple acoustic guitar etc. but we never got it much again.

[@anthonyjames4648]

[@arielalonso6886]

You need to listen this song again with Marissa ( ABBA in Poland version). And "slipping through my fingers" too. My recomendation is Move On!!!

Once is definitely enough. 😉
