AMAZING IMPORTS!! FIRST TIME REACTION | Abba Take A Chance On Me

[@eduardooscar309]

First comment here! So nice to see you reaction to ABBA songs "Take a chance on me" (1978) is one of their best ABBA hits in all the world, the most selling song of ABBA in U.S. (more than Dancing Queen), #3 in Billboard U.S. one of their four Top10 in US : #6 Waterloo (1974) #1 Dancing Queen (1977) #3 Take a chance on me (1978) #8 The winner takes it all (1981) This is one of few song than the vocals are more extensive than the music (They begin 'a capela' and singing at the end) the blonde singer Agnetha is the lead vocal in the solo verses, her voice is so powerful, in perfect armonies and chorus with the brunette Anni Frid (better known as 'Frida') in co-leads vocal (and the boys in back voices singing repetitive the frase 'take a chance, chance') Agnetha & Frida have fantastic voices and harmonies together Agnetha is soprano Frida is mezzo soprano and together made a 'third voice' of ABBA the guitarist Björn got the idea while jogging, by the sound of the footsteps he interpreted t-k-t t-kt and adapted it to "take a chance, chance, take a chance", so the song was born Although it is a disco europop, it's like a constant and happy march, captivating, cloying, addictive if I could give You a suggestion for next reaction, take a review of all "ABBA The Álbum" (release at the same time with "ABBA The Movie" in 1977), is a Masterpiece of versatility in each song, but specialy the hymn "Thank you for the music" or the winner song of the classic Eurovisión Song Contest at UK 1974: "Waterloo" the live perfomanece of ABBA is icónic, I leave you to the reaction: kzbin.info/www/bejne/aXfWh5iDr5Z5a8U&feature=share9 ( next year will be the 50th anniversary of historic ABBA's victory ) I wish you a greatest week My best regards from Buenos Aires, Argentina 🇦🇷 South America

They are one of the first ever doing videoclips. Biggest selling band after the beatles with a huge cataloge and versatile like no other band. They made dance, pop, rock and ballad classics with a unique sound, composition and production quality

The most successful talented group of all time

Come on man, this was 1977. They weren't even making pop videos during this time.. and way before MTV. Abba were pioneers.

Oh wow yes ABBA was a huge success like the Bee Gees we're in the US. They are still loved in many countries including the US. The first time I heard ABBA was I'm guessing around 1975-1976. When they came out with "SOS". I loved that song and still do!!!

[@menoftomorrowchannel]

@ronileigh9336 Wow! SOS? I will have to check that out! Thank you!

ABBA - simply best the popgroup ever, has inspired so many persons in different ways! They were huge in especially Australia, Europe and Latinamerica! As a band ABBA has sold the second most sold records in the world after The Beatles, 10 top1 -albums in the U.K. for an example. They sang in five languages - Swedish, English,Spanish, German and French. Good luck digging in the ABBA-catalog - so many extraordinary songs! About the video - Lasse Hallström made them years before the musicvideos generally came….

@niklashernery4754 Thank you! I appreciate the info, and yes, they are amazing! Can't wait to hear more!

1970's mate, music videos weren't a thing, ABBA were among the pioneers, they gave MTV the idea! Huge selling band of the 70's and early 80's with a ton of hits, some very bubble gum pop like this, others more complex or rocky, but always with great harmonies and fantastic hooks. Try "SOS" but react to the flirty stage performance "Original TV video 1975" (7.2M views) or the more performance oriented (ABBA-SOS-1975) You will fall in love this group, they are impossible not to like.

[@menoftomorrowchannel]

A separate comment, to help you understand, and taking into account your interest ABBA is a word in Hebrew, which would mean something like 'my dear Father' and it is the one that Jesus Christ used to pray to GOD It may seem that they wanted to make an analogy, and call themselves GOD. But actually ABBA are the acronyms with the initials of Their names, two Swedish couples: A- Agnetha Fältskog (blonde singer) and B- Björn Ulvaeus (guitarist and composer) B- Benny Andersson (beard pianist and composer) and A- Anni Frid Lyngstad (brunette singer, better known as 'Frida') Both couples separated before ABBA's breakup in 1982. but in 2021 ABBA returns with a new album "Voyage" and notable virtual concerts in London, UK, from May 2022, with tickets on sale now until November 2024 ABBA are legends and icons in the history of pop music They have more than 20 world hits between 1972/1982 such as "Mamma Mia", "Fernando", "Dancing Queen", "Chiquitita", "Voulez Vous" etc. Their songs are sometimes happy, like this one, but they are much more famous for their breakup songs, like "S.O.S." , "Knowing me knowing you" or "The winner takes it all" ABBA rises to fame after winning the classic Eurovision Song Contest in Brighton, UK 1974 with their iconic song "Waterloo" (next year it will be 50 years since this historic victory, and the four members of ABBA will probably be honored in the next edition of the contest, which will be held in Sweden) The video you put at the beginning is an interview from 1977 in their native Sweden, just after they began their tour of Europe and before they left for Australia, where a fever called: 'ABBAmania' with images that will be used to make a movie "ABBA The Movie" ABBA was sweeping the charts in Europe and Australia, with some hits in the United States, Canada and other countries around the world. That's why the chronicler asks them, given that Sweden at that time was not relevant in the world of music, and ABBA opened the doors to a group of artists and producers who followed them. one last piece of information: Sweden is a country on the Scandinavian peninsula, in Northern Europe, with a cold climate and high taxes, and they speak Swedish. Canada is in North America, just north of the United States, and they speak both English and French That's why I think that, except for agreeing on some winter sports and beautiful landscapes, I don't think the Swedish and Canadian cultures and history have points of contact although there are two beautiful countries to trip

[@oliviermagnific4102]

C'est vrai qu'Abba ça veut dire Père dans les évangiles, mais là c'est plutôt la réunion des quatre initiales des prénoms des 4 membres du groupe. Une chouette trouvaille que ce nom de groupe. Surtout qu'on peut l'écrire dans les deux sens, c'est comme un logo de marque.

[@genzaza8241]

you should react to their first big hit. WATERLOO it is fast and furious. ABBA the initials of the first name of each of the performers

[@menoftomorrowchannel]

@genzaza8241 I will look into it, thank you!

[@desisdosis473]
