Björn Again A Little Respect. 1992 track from the 'Erasure-ish' single, which charted at #25 in the UK in October 1992. Also appears on the 'Flashback!' album. A cover version of the Erasure song by this ABBA tribute band, in response to Erasure's 'ABBA-esque' EP.

The parody can’t hide the fact that this is a BRILLIANT cover.

[@simongill4715]

Parody of a parody

[@mabbrey]

wow well said would have took me a million words to get there

[@NANICU]

Now that ABBA is back, they absolutely have to do this song 🤣

[@magicmulder]

Love how they made the “I hear you call” fit better in the rhythm than the original “I hear you calling”.

[@doerrm73]

As an answer to Erasure's Abba-esque, this song was launched as a kind of parody - but it ended in the greatest tribute song and video ever made. Every harmony, every move and scene setting is perfect - I guess so many could be convinced that the erasure song is a cover of a 70's ABBA-Song. Awesome.

[@michailtakach]

Well said! This is an epic Scandinavian tribute!

[@jasonswiatkowski9127]

The lyric writing for both bands was brilliant. Erasure was an evolution of the Abba sound with some new tech added.

[@Fatima502]

"That you give me no 'reece-on'" - brilliant

[@CaffeineKing]

Whoa. If ABBA really had (somehow?) covered Erasure, it would be exactly this!!

[@BettyMareeHOHCountry]

the story goes that Erasure did an abba album and bjorn again came back with covers of their song little respect and stop. they are really good.

[@njmiller5]

@@BettyMareeHOHCountry It was an EP of 4 songs, not a whole album. Voulez vous, SOS, Take a chance on me & Lay all your love on me :)

[@BettyMareeHOHCountry]

@@njmiller5 i mean they can still have it on spotify with this song and what a feeling

[@teriyak1]

A '90s band that is emulating a '70s band covering a song from the '80s. Perfect

[@dominewimbury2039]

I've always preferred this version. It's brilliant. Criminal that it's not on Apple Music 🤬

[@BettyMareeHOHCountry]

you cant find any of their EPs anywhere.

[@eltonmenezes]

Yeah they are awesome Can’t find any of their music Sad that such good music is not shared compared to the rubbish on the charts

[@morbidsearch]

"We can make love not var" was a nice touch

[@Nocgirl]

I love this version. Heard it almost 30 years ago on an overseas flight I believe it was from “ Now that’s what I call music “

[@dominewimbury2039]

Yes it was on Now 23. My very first Now album

[@snidelywhiplash]

Is it weird that I still get chills at the harmony in "Oh baby, PLEEEEEASE"?

[@stevetayler9518]

@@TechAngelx It is a genuine physical sensation when I hear it and a few other songs. I guess it’s similar to ASMR, which personally I don’t experience from ASMR videos.

[@emiliocaunedo4216]

The "Pleaaseee" sounds exactly like ABBA.

[@tommyraider5852]

I absolutely love this! It makes me smile so much!

[@jonmortimer5831]

This is absolutely perfectly done. I mean it just couldn't have been any better. What a truly wonderful tribute to Erasure and ABBA actually. Bjorn Again, the original 4, were just superb. They should be proud they were the original and best tribute and made a lot of people smile and dance. I salute them.

[@manticore5733]

I know this is a year late but the reason behind this track... well after Erasure released "Abba-esque" with it's parody video this double A-side single was BjornAgain's reply - the two songs covered? "Have a little respect" and "Stop"!

[@danmccarthy4700]

I didn't know I needed this until I heard it just now.

[@garyjohn153]

Insanely brilliant. Didn't get the recognition it deserved at the time when Erasure's Abba-esque EP was number one for six weeks in the early 90s. They brought this out as a tongue-in-cheek response but in truth it's brilliantly observed. The vocals, video, piano, harmonies, Swedish twang to the lyrics...everything is just perfect. I'd love to know what the Erasure boys made of it. Ironically it's way better than their own version IMHO. A masterpiece!

[@s_patzz8212]

Hilarious, Genius, and still downright Brilliant all these years later!

[@iratepirate3896]

This... this is bafflingly great

[@robertsteinberger5667]

Time for Bjorn Again to reunite!

[@keilahernandez333]

El parecido con las voces y las apariencias de algunos integrantes es sorprendente 😳😳✨👏🏽

[@gusyonok9950]

the title is appropriate as they manage to respectfully parody. both Abba and Erasure without any offence

[@sosasosa1974]

I love it❤

[@janajindrova8090]

Great!

[@MrBoombastic2011]

I sometimes show this to people and tell them Erasure’s was a cover version. It has had a mixed response.

[@benjamingrossberg524]

I admit, I was totally prepared to hate this . . . but I find it kind of brilliant.

[@richkent7938]

Clearly a, "reply" to Erasure's, "Abba-esque" Project. Absolutely brilliant - both Cover and Video.

[@diegochavez1286]

Switching Secret to Respect feels just so right

[@tmallo1]

Love it !!Never seen the promo video before ..thanks!! These 4 originals were the best Bjorn Agains ...glad I saw them live as these 4 ..

[@BettyMareeHOHCountry]

well i saw the 2013 bjorn again but i have watched the 1998 bjorn again on youtube and the these original gems today but i think the purpose of Bjorn again hasnt lost their way they are still great but i do wish they would cover A little respect and flashdance again just for fun.

[@strauss2012]

It really looks like "Knowing Me, Knowing You" music video

[@BettyMareeHOHCountry]

Well thats the point. like their verison of flashdance was like the music version concert video of so long .

[@marmal320]

Very clever. A good sense of humour!

[@musiccollector]

GREAT job! Closed me eyes and the similarity is striking!

[@schonerdenken-brighterthin3613]

One of the best "Abba-Coversongs" ever - on the same level with "The day before you came" by Blancmange and "Gimme! Gimme! Gimme!" by The Leather Nun.

[@ultonian63]

Utter genius

[@ardentdesir5796]

A masterpiece

[@donnahutton9378]

I don't know where to start but loooove this song Why is it people to think its ok to mess with someone's emotions because they can when all you want is respect, loved for being you and most of treasured like you'd want your parents to be treated Just a simple thing, money, fame etc definitely not on my list love is worth so much more, its god damm free like nature is Anyway if anyone male or female are suffering with their emotions and well being, keep going and if someone knows or thinks someone is because you can't always tell pass their smile, go and sit with them and ask outright, mental health cannot always be seen, keep safe and show some love ❤️💯

[@phillipphillippson8456]

Now That’s What I Call Music! 23 bought me here

[@rylieriley]

This is awesome!

[@BettyMareeHOHCountry]

Why cant Bjorn Again do these covers i mean, sure they are ABBA tribute band but their mix of SOS/message in a bottle is the best and i wouldnt mind for them to sing A little respect and what a feeling and stop again. Bjorn Again introduce ABBA to a whole generation. Thanks to them i am ABBA's biggest fan.

[@ThatSwedishGuy]

Love it, u got all the camera moves and such in there, gr8 work All the best /Per

love it!! was reading on wikipedia about Bjorn Again and fell onto this....love the harmonies they did here.

[@AaronEdwards]

Turn about is, indeed, fair play.

[@RodrigoSilvaDiaz]

Wow that guy playing Björn is identycal.

[@BettyMareeHOHCountry]

thats the point of this band. they have to look like or try to look like the ABBA members as close as possible. my mum always told me i looked like Agnetha. i want to be in this band so much coz i love abba i look like Agnetha the only thing that i have different is im hard of hearing but i love abba and i reckon i can do Bjorn again.
