​@@SJ-GodofGnomes21 "The writers" of the song isn't ambiguous. It was Benny and Bjorn. It was about the Mexican Revolution. "The fateful night we crossed the Rio Grande" lyrics pinpoint the conflict. It's the only conflict in which "freedom fighters" crossed the Rio Grande in a notable war. Revolutionaries were hiding from the Mexican military until they gathered enough supplies and (with American help) regained their morale and then recrossed the Rio Grande to battle with the Mexican govt army. They may have decided that the feelings of the soldier from whose perspective the lyrics are written transcended that one war, but the Mexican Revolution was the stage for the lyrics.

This song sounds more like a love song between a woman and a man, not about two soldiers who were men. Why couldn't it be a man and a woman soldiers who were in love? It is known in my family that my great great grandmother rode with Pancho Villa during the Mexican revolution. -- from a resident who lives in the Rio Grande Valley in the southernmost tip of Texas, and close to the Mexican border, who is also a lover of ABBA music.

This song was number one in every country on earth for about 1 million weeks. I stopped watching the Top 10 on Countdown because I knew what the number one song would be. My mother loved this song so much, it was one of the 5 songs we (my Dad, sister, and myself) picked for her funeral last year. And when it came on in the ceremony, I saw her singing the song while dancing around the house just as though I was 10 or 11 all over again. God, I loved you, Mum, and I'll miss you every day until I die, but I also miss that time in my life when songs were genuinely good and became a part of our lives.

My strongest connection with an ABBA song is with "Does Your Mother Know?"-- not for any *real* reason other than cranking it loud and singing/dancing to it in middle school (almost 50 years ago). SUPER fun, but probably almost inappropriate in today's world (although the narrator in the song encourages keeping things chaste lol). It's one where Anni-Frid and Agnetha sing background to Björn's main vocals. If you give it a whirl, do not under any circumstances listen the Mama Mia version.

When I was little, I just loved the vibe of this song - the drums, the flute, the slow verses, the upbeat chorus. When I got older and really listened to the lyrics, I loved it all the more. Such a beautiful story of older people reminiscing on their time fighting for their freedom. How alive everything seemed on that night, as it would when you realize that it might be your last. ABBA is a fantastic group with so many amazing songs, but Fernando will always be my absolute favourite of theirs.

This tune is about a (supposed) friend who fought during the Mexican revolution... That's why girls wear those dresses and boys wear cowboy outfits ('Marty Mc-Fly' style😄). When Frida (Anni-Frid) and Agnetha combine their voices, something called "the third voice" of ABBA emerges. One voice is almost indistinguishable from the other... it seems like someone different... they even produce a somewhat metallic sound sometimes... 🅰️🅱️🅱️🅰️ is AMAZING 🤩!

Remember hearing this when it was released... can't believe it was 1976. Almost 50 years old and still incredible... Cracking tune... the lovely drop with the Gdim chord on "Though we never thought that we could lose, there's no regret" part always got me...

Benny Anderson is a genius composer over any sort of orchestral genre. Ballads, rock ‘n’ roll, disco, symphonic arrangements of these pieces. All this melodic music sounds very simple, but musicians know how difficult the cords and the progressions are. That is why their music stands out and will always be outstanding. This sound was unique because the vocal arrangements were so utterly tight. The instrumentation was all Benny‘s arrangements with some help from Björn who wrote wonderful lyrics for a person whose first language is not English. He’s a genius too. The girls as the boys said brought real singers to the table and their voices combine magically. Charming, sweet, lovely but you should also listen to them now and after a 40 year absence since they broke up in in 1981. In 2021 they put out their first album since then and it went to number one around the world on every pop chart list they watch. That is the magic of ABBA which makes them timeless. And now in London, they built a special stadium with lifelike avatars performing as they did in the 1970s. They did all the movements for these avatars, in real life, to be digitally incorporated into these Avatars and it looks as if they are right there on stage performing all their hits. Listen to more ABBA and then in a few months, do the 2021 songs I Still Have Faith in You and also Don’t Shut Me Down. Enjoy your ride because ABBA remains one of the top groups of all time and at one point had superseded the Beatles in number of records sold I think now it’s up to 400 million including the latest output after 40 years. Really still geniuses those two guys Benny Andersson and Björn Ulvaeus. One of the best songwriting duos of all time.

I went to the ABBA experience in London a couple of months ago where they have avatars of the band performing in a specially constructed arena as if you are actually experiencing them in concert. I burst into tears when they played Fernando as it just sounded so beautiful 'live'!

"Fernando" and "S.O.S." are my most favorite ABBA songs. It was interesting how you spoke about how upbeat ABBA songs are, especially since I knew going in that this song has a different tone. Not downbeat, but slower and a little more dramatic. I was curious then how you'd both react. So glad you guys enjoyed it. It is a great song.

I've been listening to ABBA since the 70s. I bought their albums and played them all the time. It's hard to imagine now, considering how popular they are, that there was a time in the late 80s-early 2000s that people were reluctant to admit that they liked/listened to ABBA. They weren't considered cool even though they were one of the top selling artists worldwide, of all time. I'm happy they are getting the recognition they deserve and so many people are finally admitting to loving them too. Here are some suggestions for more ABBAsongs to react to. Dancing Queen, Waterloo, Name of the Game, Angel Eyes, The Visitors, When All is Said and Done, Voulez Vous, Super Trouper, Does Your Mother Know, On and On and On, Lay All Your Love on Me, Under Attack, Thank You for the Music.

As a musician who has been around since the 70s. I can tell you that, almost universally, ABBA is respected as far as musicianship. Whether you’re primarily a grunge, metal, punk, etc. as far as you’d think you could get from their sound. Even if it’s not your bag, musicians of all genres respect ABBA. It certainly wasn’t cool to be a metal head in 1987 and like ABBA but we secretly did.

ABBA's 1st hit, in 1975, was Waterloo. A very catchy tune, fabulous upbeat rhythm and vocals. It was the song that brought them fame, at least here in the states. Please react to THAT one next time you do an ABBA song. Fernando always reminds me of the time in maybe 1998 when my coworkers and I used to break into song when one of us mentioned a technician named Fernando. Clerk: "I just spoke with Fernando about that job." Everyone: "I can hear the drums, Fernandoooooh..." (Insert group laughter) ❤❤

In 1976, this song stayed at No.1 in Australia for 14 weeks. It's hard to articulate how popular ABBA was in Australia during the 70s. They held the record for 40 yrs as the longest at No.1 until Ed Sheeran's "Shape of You," which stayed at No.1 for 15 weeks in 2017.

ABBA is/was a once in a lifetime experience. I was about nine years old when I heard "Take A Chance On Me" for the first time and I was obsessed from that point on For every birthday, every Christmas, I wanted an ABBA album, or something ABBA related. There was just something absolutely magical about them and I don't know if it will ever happen again. If you want to hear the guys (well, mainly Bjorn) taking the lead, check out "Why Did It Have To Be Me", "Does Your Mother Know" and "Another Town, Another Train." If you want some amazing disco grooviness, try "Voulez Vous" or "On and On and On." One of my favorites has always been "Hey Hey Helen." It's one that isn't as well known, but I think you'd really enjoy it

Besides being a "Beatlemaniac" I am also an "ABBAmaniac" JUST LOVE ABBA! Cher sings this in "MAMA MIA: HERE WE GO AGAIN" which is the sequel to the movie musical "MAMA MIA" Cher as a brief part towards the end as the grandmother of Sophie. BOTH movies are SO MUCH FUN and all ABBA MUSIC, with a great cast. I hope you will react to both movies on your movie reaction channel. LOVE both movies and own them on DVD now so I can watch them often. I never tire of them.
