We Didn't Enjoy This ABBA Song... Here's Why | TCC REACTS TO ABBA - Andante Andante

[@ingelaelvyson5862]

Its a beautiful ballad where Frida shines on vocals 😊

[@rdwulf6289]

Frida always shines on vocals. You make it sound like Agnetha let her have a go. Joint leads.

[@ingelaelvyson5862]

@@rdwulf6289 I know Frida always shines, whatever she sings 🤗 but she doesnt always get the cred for it.....

[@hovergrl]

This song initially wasn’t one I thought much of, but it grew on me after listening to it a few times. Now it’s definitely one of my favorites. Frida is simply amazing in it.

[@davidparsons6989]

This is actually one of my favorites.

This is one of those ABBA songs the grows on you over time. It is a solid song and performance from Frida.

I am the city they'll like for sure

[@mirjanabittar7781]

Such a beautiful song. Frida shines. ❤❤

[@lawrence97431]

Were you guys paying attention to the lyrics? Even a little? This is one of the most beautiful songs about physical intimacy ever written. She's telling him to go slow, take his time, be gentle and bring her to climax over and over again throughout the night. And, the music is perfect for the message. Hello!

[@TangoEliott]

Exactly

[@lenaengell8528]

This song is very melodious, and the more you listen to it, the better you like it!

[@meropale]

There is a Spanish version that ABBA did as well as a version that Frida (alone) did with Arturo Sandoval sometime around 2018. I've always liked this song. It definitely grows on you. Benny liked it enough that it was used in the second MM! movie.

[@TboneSteak1992]

Such a beautiful song. The lyrics are powerful for those who are in love. Reminds you how sex can be clean and and powerful.

[@christianoazzuro6711]

Wow what a punctual discription!Agreeeeee!lol!

[@Zinatra]

I love this song. Frida sings so beautifully and pleasantly. It is a love song and she sings to take it easy with her, she is in love and sensitive. (Andante means slow). Very professional by Frida 💘. It shows that the group can sing everything from disco to ballads! 💘♥️💫✨⭐❤️💖🎉💥🌹

[@alejandraalvarado4622]

Andante (Spanish) means walker, a person who is going to everywhere, and never stops

[@aboyhasnoname4093]

Love when you guys react together. Lately I've been listening to The Piper a lot. I love it, makes me feel like a pagan honoring the old gods lol. Hope to see you reacting to it as well.

[@alanscopp1114]

Well everyone has their own taste. I love the waltz time- so rare in music these days - that gives a lilt to the song. The electric guitar against the piano and strings is s nice contrast. Beatiful melody. I’ll give it a thumbs up. I think it is a gem.

[@MrWagnerac]

Beautiful Song. try another Abba song " The Piper"

[@sibbo-v6n]

listen to it with the lights off and by a fire, listen to the words, I used to sing it to my wife to show her how much I loved her.

[@mikesmithson6805]

If Andante means slowly, what does despacito mean? This is Frida singing lead. U should know by now how to differentiate the two girls vocals. Agnetha is the higher/brighter voice. Frida mostly lower, deeper and soulful.

[@dorojessy6932]

Agnetha (the blond one) is a soprano and Anni-Frid (the red one) is a mezzo-soprano.

[@mikesmithson6805]

@German Morawski tnx for the info?

@Marvin Quezada it isn’t supposed to be a literal translation though -Andante in musical terminology is moderately slow

It is a beautiful song that you need to revisit and hear it again. It has a special context within the classical realm. I think you will grow to love it especially if you are a singer and it has very interesting expansive instrumental arrangements with many colours.

[@crwydryn]

This beautiful,tender love song is one of my favourites of all time. I feel you are perhaps not yet mature enough to appreciate it! People in love would know what I mean.

[@scented-leafpelargonium3366]

Yes, definitely for those who could appreciate the meaning and experience of the velvet touch of someone's body Frida is singing about. It's a very seductive lovesong, so it's meant to be slooow and slushy. ABBA didn't just do dance songs, in fact they were often criticized for just doing what was termed 'bubblegum pop' in the early '70's. By 1980 they have definitely improved & matured. Her Spanish version is even better of you're looking for "grandiose." Lots of people don't like it, but many do. As one person said, it grows on you, and I think that is definitely the case. I found it a good contrast from some of the faster songs on the Super Trouper album. Thank you anyhow.

[@wayne_twentyfive]

"I liked this bit".. "I love that bit" "What do you think about the song ?" "Meh" Me - ?????????????????????

[@alexioverdo5225]

I remember years back reading somewhere that lyrics to this beautiful song actually discribe a couple's love action but in a very poetic and refined way.Personally i love Frida's lead in both English and Spanish versioNs.That was an all family fave for us and also beautifuly fit in the MMia! 2 movie while being featured in a lovely scene in that Greek island club.

[@joekerlhh]

Thanks once again for your reaction video. And I think it is absolutely ok that you do not get overenthusiastic with every song you listen to. Thanks for your honesty and authenticity.

[@andrewallen3826]

My favourite Abba song

[@Zentrix-24]

There are so many layers to all Abba songs. All so well produced and the girls are so perfectly matched as well. I love about 98% of their songs. Andante to me sounds better and better the more you hear it.

[@jay_ooh]

This is one of the top songs from the Super Trouper album... For sure! However.. I do agree with them that this is not One of those elaborate ABBA songs.. It's meant to be what it is and they were exactly right I feel!

[@1974pieter]

FRIDA recorded this in spanish in 2018 with Santoro Sanduval...please review that as well and compare it to this one....

[@Payne2view]

I think it is quite beautiful and Frida does one of her longest notes. However, the basic rhythm could probably be traced back to 1950s do-wop. I think the guitar tone was just from playing higher up the neck.

[@nickchristoforou7850]

As a huge ABBA fan, I absolutely agree with you! Frida's vocals are great, but the melody and production are boring and sterile, too 'perfect'. Unlike most fans, I felt this album was too 'adult contemporary' and synth-driven compared to their previous albums. I do love the title track "Super Trouper", "Lay All Your Love On Me", and "Our Last Summer". "The Piper" is interesting too, with its medieval feel.

[@MarioDruet]

A brilliant love song made in the style of the 60s.

[@HankD13]

Sound quality of this vid is awful - listen it to it on a quality sound system! This is an incredibly beautiful song - and I believe only released in Argentina and Spain (they know their market). Anni-Frid was every bit as good Agnetha, who always seemed to get most glory. For myself, a beautiful, beautiful song.

[@pascal-Z]

I love that song.

[@auntvesuvi3872]

Thanks, Marissa! Thanks, Tyler! ⏯ This song is about being in something that you feel would be right if it were going at a more relaxed pace. It's a very particular vibe. Even if you've never experienced it yet, you likely will someday. #TylerCreatesContent #AndanteAndante #ABBA

[@patriciakupiec993]

Great song for close, slow dancing! Try it.

[@Lisa-M]

I ask me why you have to guess who's singing? As you said there had been a lot of suggestions for this song and almost as much comments that Frida is singing it. So you just had to read the comments more carefully. 😉

[@6549Marci]

I don't get it either. I've said elsewhere that it's a mystery to me that many people immediately recognize Agnetha's voice but have trouble recognizing Frida's. The girls' voices are so different when they sing solo parts.

[@Lisa-M]

@@6549Marci But they also didn't recognize Agnetha in I've Been Waiting For You. ^^ I don't know if it can depend on someones ears but it is always mentioned in the comments who sings a song, so even if one can't differentiate them, they just have to read the comments. ☺

[@Lisa-M]

@German Morawski As I said, other ones don't even get it after almost 100 songs. But here it had been clear just with reading the comments in the previous reactions because a lot of viewers mentioned it before that Andante Andante is sung by Frida. And perhaps their bad sound system in the car sometimes distorts the sound. They should really use headphones. Their voices were not always different. There was a time at the beginning of their career where one can't recognize the difference in the voices of the girls. Listen to Honey Honey for example.

[@LOTGiscool]

An absolutely lovely song!

[@oscarl.3563]

It's my favorite. 😥 Listen to it in headphones!

React to "You Owe Me One"... Please!

[@jimhoppe8317]

You're both coming off an "I Let The Music Speak" high!! So whatever song follows may seem a bit disappointing. But I do agree, it's not one of my favorites. But it is still a very good song and vocal performance!! I wish Marissa would have a chance to react to some more of the "Voyage" songs. I know Tyler has already done so. But Marissa's reaction would very interesting. Especially "Just A Notion", "No Doubt About It" & "Ode To Freedom."

[@brandoncruz3102]

Hi nice to see you guys, I think " I Am the City" is a must next. Its the last song from abba in the sense that it was from an unreleased album, said album was meant to be released after the Visitors but the group split up after that so I am the City is a awesome Experimental Pop track that showcase the best songwriting skills but also a new sound going forward into the 80s if they would have continue

Love most of their songs but I am not a fan of The Day Before You Came. It’s perfectly fine not to like every single song, it makes you both authentic. Would love to know what Marissa thinks of the ABBA songs she missed reviewing.

[@medmon3476]

As others have commented Andante is Italian for walking pace or moderately slow tempo but it's helpful to know that all sheet music,no matter what country you're in, uses Italian words to indicate the instructions of the composer so that there's a universal ( & agreed upon) way for musicians to understand the terms (& there are a lot of them) no matter what nationality they are. Also using that term, although its a bit embarrassing to admit it, would have probably been used to indicate that the singer feels like her lover should play her like an instrument hence the musical instructions andante andante 😲.

[@edned5504]

I think that this song contains adult themes and euphemisms and really you ought not to have listened to it before turning 21. TCC says several times "I like that" or words to that effect. Marissa also points out parts that she likes, but she is looks unimpressed overall. I do love Frida's final phrase and the emphasis on the word 'down'. Off on a tangent as I am wont to do, the line in the song "Tread lightly on my ground" always reminds me of the poem by WB Yeats, He Wishes for the Cloths of Heaven: "Had I the heavens’ embroidered cloths, Enwrought with golden and silver light, The blue and the dim and the dark cloths Of night and light and the half-light, I would spread the cloths under your feet: But I, being poor, have only my dreams; I have spread my dreams under your feet; Tread softly because you tread on my dreams."

[@craignotgreg547]

This song did not strike a cord with me the first time either. The song lured me in slowly. It would be almost impossible a soothing, slow-tempo song like this could stand out on such a fine album like Super Trouper, where there are already many brilliant stand-out songs: The Winner Takes it All, Our Last Summer, Lay All Your Love on Me, Super Trouper, Me and I, etc. Yet, still, a beautiful, well-Polished song. Not my favorite either, considering their extensive library of brilliant masterpieces. Please try a Linda Ronstadt number From "Cry Like a Rainstorm, Howl Like the Wind" album. Either "Still Within the Sound of My Voice" or "Adios." She is one of the very few artists who could match the voice range and raw emotion like that of Agnetha and Frida. Nothing but genuine vocal talent in these three ladies. Try Linda. Btw, you going to do Voules-vous? Until next time Tyler & Marissa, so long! Hey, have you done So Long?
