this song was number 1 in the UK for several weeks in late 1977, It stopped We Are Champions (with We Will Rock You on the B side!) by Queen getting to the top! I think Status Quo's Rocking All Over the World was kept down at number 3 by those two.

[@RaynorBear]

The game that they are playing is "Fia-Spel", which is a close variation of the more known game Parcheesi here in the USA.

[@johnsilva9139]

Thanks for letting us know. I thought it resembled Parchesi.

[@Xiroi87]

I thought it was parcheesi, only with Scandinavian design, hence the muted colours.

[@jlilley73]

Younger generations may recognize it as a predecessor to the very similar game "Sorry!"

[@Robert41265]

It's funny that I've never played 'Parcheesi', yet that was the first guess to pop into my head. I'm thinking that question must've come up in my past, and that was the answer I heard back then. 🤔 I've definitely played 'Sorry!'. I still have the original version from my youth in my closet. 😊

[@starskreem8258]

Another name for it was Spanish Ludo. I always knew it as Ludo in Australia. The games only really varied by how many dice you used. Ludo used 1 and Parcheesi used 2. But most of europe and the world knows it as Ludo.

[@geoffryan3834]

[@aaradia]

I may be in the minority, I am sure I am, but Dancing Queen is not one of my favorite songs by them. Nowhere near close. Am I completely alone in this ? Anyways, one of their biggest hits, so they surely do need to react to it.

[@michelemercier2286]

No, you're not completely alone. Don't get me wrong, it's a great song, the vocal range is amazing and the "third voice" is at the top of their game, but it doesn't quite grab me the way some other songs do. Having said that, it is their biggest hit and when the time comes it will be interesting to see the reaction. I'm guessing it will be recognized.@@aaradia

[@MichaelOKC]

You are correct!! If I remember correctly from one of their interviews, this song was written at a time that there was beginning to be trouble in the romantic relationships in the group!

[@aaronbarlow4376]

And Ludo is a big hairy creature in 'Labyrinth'.

[@vijaiparhar3778]

The game referred to is a growing relationship between a shy introverted woman and her therapist,. She's only visited him a few times, but he seems to completely understand her and 'see through' her - he can teach her a lot about herself - she's falling in love with him and asking if he can reciprocate - he can't do so because he is a professional - but she naively doesn't realise this restriction. (the game in the video is a red herring distraction)

"The name of the game" these is an extraordinary song by ABBA, which has many peculiarities: 1) I think it's the first in which each of the girls sings a verse as lead voice 2) the official video was recorded at the blonde Agnetha & blonde Björn's home, because Agnetha was very late in her second pregnancy (that's why maybe she's sitting and cared for in the picture) 3) "The name of the game" was released in October 1977, two month before "ABBA The Album" and the movie "ABBA The Movie" It was a bold gamble from ABBA, it opened their horizons and spread beyond pop. I think that "The name of the game" (1977) have some vibs of influences of BEATLES songs like "Penny Lane" or "Fool on the hill" (1967) curiosly, "The name of the game" was #1 in UK (4 weeks) and replaced in the #1 for "Mull of Kintyre" by Paul McCartney (ex-BEATLES member) "The name of the game" is in my opinion a masterpiece one of the Seven Wonders of ABBA (in chronological order): Waterloo S.O.S Dancing Queen The name of the game Chiquitita The winner takes it all Don't shut me down You have fantastic songs in "The Album" (1977) to react, ABBA's most versatile album: "Eagle" almost 6 minutes amazing Take a chance on me (the banger hit) "One man one woman" (beauty ballad) "Move on" (fantástic chorus) "Hole in your soul" (powerful rock) included a mini musical from 1977 Tour: "Thank you for the music" (ABBA hymn) "I wonder" (dramatic ballad) "I'm a marionette" (progresive rock) I hope to see you soon in more ABBA videos A big hug from Buenos Aires, Argentina 🇦🇷 South America PS: at the time of the official video (1977) the blonde singer Agnetha and the guitarist Björn was married since 1971, with one child in 1973 and in pregnancy of their second child (the only official video with Her pregnant) the brunette singer Frida and the bearded keyboardist Benny was engaged and living together since 1969 and married next year 1978

One song from ABBA catalogue I think is a "must check out" is ""Ring, Ring", because it was arguably their first song that had all the ABBA music ingredients intact. With this one they created the concept, that produced all the beloved hits.

[@Vinterfrid]

Right - and most of us Swedes were shocked by the fact that 'Ring ring' did not win the Swedish song contest in 1973 and got to represent the nation at the Eurovision Song Contest. However, the following year they participated with 'Waterloo' - and the rest is history.

I grew up listening to ABBA and to say im a fan is an understatement!! I loved them before they became popular!! Now its so awesome to see younger people like you and Amber enjoying and being excited about their music. ❤😊

[@michelemercier2286]

It's still a bit surreal sometimes. I sort of liked it when they weren't popular because it made me feel like they were my unique thing and that I didn't go along with the crowd. When friends would dismiss them as a "disco" band I knew that, sure they incorporated elements of disco but that they were so much more and felt a bit sorry for those friends in a "you don't know what you are missing" way. Fast forward to now and not only was I right at the time about how great they were, but they have stood the test of time in the way very few musicians have. As big a fan as I was and am - I didn't really expect that, yet I don't find it surprising. Amber explained it I think when she noted that you can't really assign their music a genre. They incorporated so much with such high production levels that most of it escapes sounding dated.

For those of us around at the time in the UK, Abba were seen by young people as catchy singles, a bit cheesy and fun to dance to. However, now I am older I can appreciate just how wonderful, multi layered and interesting they were. These days, musicians are praised for changing chord and are mostly talntless and boring but in those days mega talents like Abba were commonplace.

Probably shot on film. The video was directed by Lasse Hallström, who also wrote and directed "ABBA: The Movie", the film for which the song was written. The movie itself was shot in 35mm Panavision, although originally intended to be 16mm. I assume this video was in 16mm, also.

[@genzaza8241]

As you know after 40 years ABBA came back with the "Journey" The one song that stands out is "I still have Faith in You" A combination Ballad and Anthem style masterpiece that states the feeling of getting back together and putting out more music. As the song is song and the video plays you realize that it is the pinnacle of a simply yet unbeatable combination of video, vocal, and emotional elements. It brings the ABBA journey full circle. It is the story of ABBA getting together, stardom, heart ache, break up, lasting friendship, and here we are back together again.

HI GUYS GREETINGS FROM ENGLAND 🇬🇧 AND YOU HAVE TO CHECK OUT THE ABBA SONG 🎵" " THE DAY BEFORE YOU CAME" THIS WAS ONE OF THERE FINAL RECORDINGS BEFORE THEY SPLIT UP AS A GROUP AND ITS SUCH A GREAT SONG AND IS SO DIFFERENT TO ALL THERE OTHER SONGS

[@MosesGutierrezII]

Ya'll are gonna love "Dancing Queen"

[@Earcandy73]

Yep, another great one from the legends! Ah the glorious summer of 1977. I was in my childhood element sitting next to my big sister’s transistor radio. Again, the combination of Agnetha and Frida has been famously described as the third voice. Of course Benny and Bjorn’s contributions can’t go without recognition- they are geniuses.

I had to google it because I didn't know. The game they were playing in the video is the Swedish version of Ludo known as Fia-Spel. I don't know what Ludo is either, but it looked a lot like a marbles board game we played when I was a kid. Of course, in the song, "name of the game" is figurative, asking the person being sung to "what are your true intentions in this relationship with me?" Such a beautiful song! Love ABBA! :)

I had just turned 15 when this song first became a hit and I was just mesmerized and enthralled with it, truly unique,. Truly the first song that I so noticed, respected and honored the composition, the arrangement, the layered sonic differences and of course the harmonies. Total awe and admiration for this group ABBA.

[@patclinker6587]

This is my ABSOLUTE favorite ABBA song!! I am a retired music educator and I wanted to do an arrangement of this song with my Sixth Grade Choir, but I let time get away from me. WONDERFUL song!!!

[@musicgrl100]

Oh, I'm so glad you did this one! It's tough to pick a favorite, but this one is up there! 🥰

[@Simon-wi3dk]

I was a young teen when Abba was big , unfortunately for me and the crowd I hung with , it was not cool to acknowledge Abba , but damn they were off the chart !!

[@Flatwoodsdad]

You still have only scratched the surface. They did glam rock, show tune, reggae, psychedelic, disco and about every other genre. And did them all to perfection. The girls even took a year (they wanted the pronunciations perfect) to do a Spanish album of their hits. It was/is a huge seller. Every member is hugely talented and their all perfectionist.

[@TimoBrown79]

ABBA is amazing. Her Serene Highness Frida is amazing.

Thank you Jay & Amber for reacting to all these ABBA songs in such an entertaining, cheerful & positive way. I've been a big fan of ABBA ever since "Waterloo" - which introduced ABBA to the World. I was 13 when they won the Eurovision Song Contest in Brighton England in 1974, I'm 62 now and watching your positive reactions to all these songs which have accompanied me during my life was lovely & delightful to witness. I congratulate you both for recognizing how talented these 4 Swedes are. Your happy reactions to each song was like an ABBA song itself. Thank you so much for making my Saturday morning get off to a happy, cheery & positive note! 😊👍

[@leroyrs]

What a beautiful timeless song. I recommend "The Visitors". So different...

[@tonymonk1965]

One of my long time friends and I would go into his room in 1988 and listen to ABBA and have a few beers... This friend passed away many years ago now... I have always loved ABBA... Brings back so many good and fond memories.... Amber you want to know what the game is that their playing... That's why the song is called... what's the name of the game LOL

[@nielsulriksrensen9818]

This is one of the best songs in pop history. It was huge back in the days, but far too few people have rediscovered it. Thanks for reacting to it, love it!

[@gododgers081]

You guys absolutely need to play. Lay All Your Love On Me!!!! ABBA

[@davidbecker2536]

Another great ABBA song you will love is the song I do I do I do I do I do.

[@philliptucker4788]

Just in case you’ve wondered why ABBA had so many actual music videos back in the ‘70s, even the early ‘70s, when other groups didn’t (or at least very rarely): Because of their physical location in Sweden, and because Sweden wasn’t known as a mass producer of popular music on the worldwide stage, it was extremely hard for Swedish groups to get noticed, so they quite literally pioneered the use of music videos as a marketing tool. Obviously, it was long before MTV and long before the artistic, high-budget, polished videos we see now. Some of their videos are very simple, some more intricate, some downright silly - but it’s how they were able to reach out to the world in a way no one else had ever accomplished. It was a novel way they could export their look and sound to countries around the world, far from the isolation of Sweden, and get noticed and grow their brand-and it worked. They really deserve much of the credit for pioneering something that’s taken for granted today!

[@hopelm424]
