True, the guys wrote and produced the songs. But the girls had a lot of input into the vocal arrangements - and those are legendary. By the way, Agnetha was a successful songwriter in her own right, with several self penned hits in her native Sweden, before ABBA was even founded. (Frida had hits as well, but she didn’t write songs).

We thought "Chiquitita" meant "little girl" at the time (and she was). She sang "I'll shine once more like I did before" (and I have tears in my eyes now). In the spirit of "naughty" songs, we all sang "When I kissed the teacher"(!) spontaneously in my primary school class. Maybe they wouldn't play that now on the radio 🤣. I had a teenage crush on a friend who played violin so "Bang a Boomerang" means a lot to me. I love "Eagle", "I am the Tiger" and "Under Attack" as well.

Hello , so nice to see you again reaction to ABBA songs "Money money money" (1976) it is a very good song in a different musical style, cabaret type, set in another era "Money money money" is the single that followed "Dancing Queen" and reached # 3 in the UK, #1 in Australia and several European countries. It is a totally different song from its predecessor "Dancing Queen" and also from its successor "Knowing me knowing you" This is the versatility of ABBA, they go from genre to genre, as well as from success to success The song lends itself very well to the brunette Frida's lower voice, the choruses are sharper in contrast (and very catchy) The instrumentation is excellent The official video is one of ABBA's best, very creative, it shows Them in fashion situations and also with their famous kimonos But a few months before ABBA premieres the new official lyric video of "Money money money" I hope to see you soon with more ABBA songs My best regards to You from Buenos Aires Argentina 🇦🇷 South America

Good reaction! This is one of many great songs by ABBA, and it's good to see Anni-Frid at the forefront of this one, as it's usually Agnetha's vocals up front. Ironically, Anni-Frid did indeed get her "a wealthy man" - she married a Swiss prince, although sadly he died in 1999 but they had 7 years together. She's now with a British aristocrat, so she's obviously got a taste for the good living now! 😄

They won the Eurovision contest singing that song and it launched them. Also, about their videos…they were in the very early wave of singers producing music videos. Agnetha especially hated to leave her children for tours and they decided to produce the videos so that their fans could see them perform.

One thing that makes ABBA great is the theatricality of their music. This one for example, both the song AND video, have a "soundtrack" kind of storytelling quality, as if they're from a movie (or as if the video itself IS the movie). Unlike songwriters for whom everything is autobiographical, ABBA is never afraid to be storybook, fairy tale, or cinematic in their approach. Love them, and love this review! If you're into deep tracks, check out their early song "So Long"---it's the opposite of this, thematically ("So long! See ya honey, can't buy me with your money!")

Funny. I've never considered that before, but yes, So Long does have the "opposite" theme. (They say that money's got the magic touch, but not to me it doesn't mean that much). And a great song as well.

Thank you both for spreading so much happiness and love! I think as parents of young children you may enjoy and relate to ABBA’s Slipping through My Fingers. It wasn’t a big hit for them but anyone who has experienced parenthood can certainly relate to the song.

One of ABBA's lesser known song, but probably one of their finest is "Eagle" - there is a short version and a long version. You can't go wrong with either version!

Some years back, the British band Erasure did some quality Abba covers and released them on an EP called Abba-esque and then shortly after an Australian Abba tribute band called Bjorn Again, styled themselves on Abba and did some Erasure covers and called the EP, Erasure-ish. Bjorn Again are still going and currently touring the UK.

Love it! So many memories , so many great songs. Can't wait til you do Waterloo, and Dancing Queen (and at some point do Muriel's Wedding on the movie channel). Not seen anyone mention it, but I've always had a soft spot for The Name of The Game. Think the riff was used in a rap song later?

You know, there is something so theatrical about Abba songs. I could see someone making a musical show or movie featuring Abba songs.

This is from their "Arrival" album, which was one of my favorites. If you'd like to check out Bjorn singing lead, check out "Why Did It Have To Be Me", with the ladies singing backup and on the chorus. "Voulez Vous" is an absolute BANGER that you have to check out and for a moody, slower piece, "Knowing Me, Knowing You" is so deep and amazing.

Hi! Always enjoy your reactions! Thanks! You might want to see the movie “Mama Mía!” It has Abba music all the way there and there was collaboration with Abba on it! Thanks again for everything!

ABBA actually has some songs that are bangers like "So Long""Waterloo" and "On and On and On."

Now you should watch the movie, "Mama Mia" which is a musical that uses all ABBA songs to create a narrative. It was a big hit on stage (we saw it in London) and then they made a movie out of it. You'll eat it up!

It's underrated and I mention it each time but I hope you find your way to Abba's Eagle. You will love their harmony on that one.

I bought the album "Arrival", where this was included,when it came out in 1976. It is fascinating still today.

ABBAs bass lines are among the best, so damn groovy and technical.

You should do a reaction on Mama Mia the movie. It has all their songs that are preformed by Meryl Streep, Pierce Brosnan, Amanda Sevfried, Colin Firth, Christine Baranski, Stellan Skarsgard, and Julie Walters. You will love the movie, and you will have to do the reaction to the second movie: Mama Mia: Here We Go Again with the same cast and with Cher, Andy Garcia and Lily James.

Only ABBA could have a hit with a song about a Spotlight ( Super Trooper). Was brought up on ABBA and still love them to this day. ❤

It’s so interesting to see in the comments how much everyone loves Abba. It’s interesting because, back in the 70’s, people did not like Abba or their music. Personally, I never knew why as I was an Abba fan from the beginning and still have all their albums. I think the movie/play, Mama Mia, brought everyone around, and I’m just happy it did. Thanks for the reaction.

Jay and Amber, "Dancing Queen" is/was very very big hit , also Voulez-vous, also a rock number. Abba sounds always different and very different every time.

I love them so much. My mom played them and The Carpenter's on the piano and in the car on trips. They always bring up such great memories.
