FIRST TIME HEARING Abba - Chiquitita REACTION

[@eduardooscar309]

"Chiquitita" means 'little girl' (with affection) in spanish And the melody have a spanish tune, specialy by the acustic guitar But the center is the wonderful piano, like akmost all ABBA songs "Chiquitita" is a beautiful song, it has hopeful lyrics, a melody that starts very soft with the blonde Agnetha's solo, then grows and explodes in a powerful chorus; Agnetha and Anni Frida's vocal harmonies are of excellence (Agnetha is soprano, Anni Frid is mezzo soprano, and together blending together the 'Third Voice' of ABBA) "Chiquitita" was premiered for the Concert by UNICEF, invited (with a lot of artist) by Bee Gees ABBA premiered "Chiquitita" that night in January 9 (1979), and its royalties are eternal for UNICEF "Chiquitita" was ABBA's greatest success in Latin America, that prompted ABBA to record it in Spanish, and its success was so extraordinary that in the following years ABBA recorded an album with its best songs entirely in Spanish "Chiquitita" was specialy the greatest hit of ABBA in my country Argentina "Chiquitita" is in the Top 3 of all ABBA worldwide biggest hits, with 'Dancing Queen" and "Fernando", and it's a fantastic Masterpiece This promotional video was in February 1979 in Swizterland, when ABBA go there to a special TV "ABBA in Switzerland", for the 'International year of the Child' (That's why the snowman) I hope to see you soon with more ABBA songs as said my latín american friend Alejandro try to "Money money money" (1976) another musical genre with Frida in lead voice My best regards from Buenos Aires Argentina

Great song. Kind of funny how Frida is fighting with her hair throughout the video lol. It seemed to have a life of it's own but the hair always wins lol. This was sung for a Christmas special in Switzerland hence the snowman. ABBA has always given the proceeds from this song to UNICEF and Frida is still a UNICEF ambassador .

what always strikes me about this song and many of the other great Abba songs are the incredible lyrics. Sometimes It's hard to remember that the lyrics were written by a man who is Swedish and for whom English is a second language.

They did this song in spanish too.

They taped the this outside, but it was not "official" (though it is the one that is most common), for a Christmas special in Switzerland, thus the snowman - the producers didn't like it because Frida's hair wouldn't cooperate. Another vid exists inside around a table(?), you can find it on YT (easy to find) and was the one used on the TV special. I have yet to see a reacation video using the official TV version.

Could you try react to the Norwegian national treasure Sissel Kyrkjebø performing "Unchained Melody"? She is considered one of the world's top crossover sopranos and performed the vocals in the Titanic movie. Her voice is amazing, you will be amazed.

1. Turn off subtitles. 2. Move past the "happy song-sad song" binary. It's a dead-end street.
