Eagle is definitely one of my favorite songs, it's so underrated. It's has this kind of psychedelic vibe and makes me feel high...who needs drugs when we have ABBA? And oh my god the guitar solo at the end is literally heaven. Your reactions are the best, but please try to not get this goofy again because it's like hard to watch... Glad to see other people my age enjoying ABBA!

[@jeffreyweitzman6463]

Everyone obviously entitled to their opinion - but I say just let them be goofy, it was only in parts and it is endearing shows their personalities and fun side to both of them. Better than being all dull boring personalities and putting on a forced persona which isn't them. And with that terms of the songs themselves, they always treat them when talking about them dead serious and with deserved respect Abba should always get.

[@nickchristoforou7850]

Lead guitarist on this song is Janne Schaffer, who also was a session guitarist for Bob Marley and Johnny Nash. I believe Lasse Wellander also played electric guitar on this Bjorn Ulvaeus played acoustic guitar. "Eagle" is the lead song on ABBA's 5th album, 'The Album'. All nine tracks are phenomenal, the last 3 being part of a 'mini-musical. Aside from 'Eagle', my favourite tracks are "Move On", "The Name Of The Game", "Hole In Your Soul", and the banger "Take A Chance On Me", which peaked at #3 on the U.S. Billboard top 100 and is actually ABBA's biggest selling single (even more than #1 hit "Dancing Queen").

[@Socio4030]

In the early 70s before Bob Marley was famous he visited Sweden and stayed at Janne's place he had a bed in the basement. Not all can brag about that 🙂 but Janne can

[@PC-vg8vn]

Theres a song, part of the mini musical, but which Ive never seen a recording of except as part of Abba The Movie - Carousel I think it's called. A real foot-tapper.

[@anthonysmith8800]

This has always been one of my favourite Abba songs. Very majestic and soars just like an Eagle. The production and arrangement are superb and those vocals and harmonies as exquisite as always. When those two voices sing together it ignites something in my brain. No 2 other voices have this incredible affect. Pure joy 💖

[@travistabor1051]

You two always make the best and most positive reaction videos. Especially for your ABBA reactions. I look forward to seeing more!

[@riaanbehr7976]

It's a great opener to The album, but their best song is a bit further down the playlist called Move on. Bjorn does a spoken word in the first verse. And the chorus... Just epic! A tropical island vibe. It's just awesome 👌

[@toby9999]

Move on is beautiful.

[@dlind1985]

@Toby 🦅 Yes, and written for such a time like this... We all need *hope* in this widespread darkness ⚓

[@andreasbru3408]

I think its Stickan Andersson doing the spoken wordy segment tho

[@JF-sh2sm]

@@andreasbru3408 No it’s Björn, Stig has never recorded any vocal for ABBA. Not a single ABBA song feature anyone else than the 4 members, apart from I Have A Dream and Little Things which both include a children choir.

[@RalphWigg1]

We were expecting a reaction to the track, not waiting for you to grow up!

[@eduardooscar309]

"Eagle" is ABBA's longest song, almost six minutes It is the opening song of his fifth album, entitled "ABBA The Album" (1977), which coincides with the edition and premiere of his film ABBA The Movie "(1977), which records ABBA's memorable tour in Australia and the entire ABBAmania "Eagle" was released as a single in a few countries, it's a pity that wasn't the chance to be the third single of "The Album" in UK (follow "The name of the Game" & "Take a chance on me") I go back to "ABBA The Album" After the spectacular worldwide success with "Dancing Queen" and their album "Arrival" this more versatile album and more experimental music followed, with more elaborate and deep lyrics, all the songs are of different genres, different from each other, fantastic, for me it is his best album includes the great hit "Take a chance on me", the bizarre rock "Hole in your soul", the mystical "Move on", the mini musical with the classic "Thank you for the music", each song is a must! I suggest you listen to "The name of the Game" the second track in "The Album" and the first single from these it's a fantástic song too #1 in UK four weeks Kind regards from Buenos Aires, Argentina South América

[@noelleggett5368]

One of my favourite songs growing up. It is a wonderful example of how ABBA could take any genre and redefine it. This is the pinnacle of 70s folk rock - one of the dominant genres of the 60s and 70s (think Joni Mitchell, Paul Simon… and ABBA’s own origins) - with amazing sound production, brought to the world of commercial pop radio. It is a sensation, and very influential for the later folk rock and ‘prog’ rock sounds of the 80s and 90s. Compare this song with ABBA’s first single of this (or any) genre, ‘People Need Love’, and you quickly realise just how much this band had already accomplished in seven short years (with five more years, and three more great albums to go) . This album was right on the cusp of the disco era. Their next album was their iconic disco album, ‘Voulez-vous’.

[@jrcarlsson5751]

There is also a nice video to this song with some psykedelic effects wich was possible to make in those days. Thank you both for reacting to one of the best groups ever.

[@deedubya286]

I bought this album when it first came out. I remember reading a review of it somewhere, that described it as being recorded with a precision that was "frighteningly mathematical". I always thought that was a good description of most of ABBA's music. It was engineered with the perfection of a fine Swiss watch!

[@PC-vg8vn]

Yes the late Michael Tretow was something of a genius in the studio.

[@karlturner9038]

There is a long live version of Eagle with the long guitar solo, that's also truly worth listening to.

[@bpfromowc]

I get a similar feeling when I listen to ABBA perform “The Way Old Friends Do” (live at Wembley).

[@VideosSmokin]

Yes you reacted to the right version. The music video version is the short version which was used for radio play and is 2 minutes shorter.

[@annebaker9408]

Love that you are listening to this. The is a song you just have to sit back, close your eyes to and listen (not possible doing a reaction!) …and the best part….every single sound is made by a human!!! That makes is magical! Music today is electronic and often AI assisted….but ABBA did it all themselves….so in a way…they taught computers how to make modern day music! ABBA is a trip back in time to when humans did it all!

[@edned5504]

First things first. I liked the new seating arrangement. I heard this song way way back many centuries ago, in early 1978 when I was 14. I'd read The Hobbit a few years previously, and I always imagined the section of the book where Bilbo and the dwarves are rescued by the eagles. The imagery is so nice. "They came flying from far away Now I'm under their spell I love hearing the stories that they tell They've seen places beyond my land And they've found new horizons They speak strangely but I understand." Sigh. So so lovely. At 9'45" on your video there is an instrumental section. This section of the song is a joy to listen to with headphones. You can hear the 'eagle' flying from left, overhead to right and back again. It has to be a stereo recording of course (in your video the music is mainly mono owing to the way you've made it). It is, as you say in the USA or Canada, 'awesome'. Good fun as always people. Incidentally, TCC sounds a bit like Marge Simpson when he tries the Marrisa voice.

[@alexioverdo5225]

Longtime back,member of The Human League team admitted that their smash hit "Don't you want me?" kinda "used" Abba's main keyboard line from this song("Eagle")Their frontman Phil Oakey and the girls Suzane and Joanne were big fans.

[@Bandido894]

Didn't knew that, even became also HL fan just after Abba quit 1982. They just came in perfect time and filled the avoid with Dont you want/Dare-album. 👍

[@alexioverdo5225]

@@Bandido894Yeah!Phil was even admitting his Abba "fondnes" even at times it was uncool to admit.They even considered to do a cover of "I Am The City" in the '90's.Also whenever they were releasing the "Dare!" singles there was an idication on the 7 inch sleeve.RED(for posers)BLUE(for ABBA fans) as Phil said!Frida attented their gig in Sweden in early '80s and they all got photographed backstage laughing.Photo's available also in the net.

@German Morawski Lol, i took notice first times i heard it back in late '81 before even they admitted this.

[@6549Marci]

You reacted to the right version. I understand you wanted to inject some humor, but it didn't really fit the song. No offense, just saying.

[@frankdevries5739]

Couldn't agree more. Last time I watched them.

[@BeatsLife2207]

[@The_Jupiter2_Mission]

The guitar work was done by two of their musicians Janne Schaffer & Lasse Wellander. Janne did the bulk and Lasse came in later to add further guitar work. Tyler needs controlling.

[@lynne268]

I usually like your reaction videos for Abba songs. But this time I must say I didn`t like this. You had your own inside fun with each other, it’s nice, but it’s not nice to watch. I love Eagle song (it`s brilliant) and I would liked to have from you more appreciation and focus on it.

[@AdaKitten]

Good reaction when you guys managed to gather your wits :P Marissa: I feel you. I have an older brother that teases me a lot and it gets old, fast.

Chaos! And so many good ABBA songs to find after this to be chaotic to. You might find it harder when your distracted on their video songs. Fernando is a good one. So Long by ABBA is a great energetic song with a really fun video of them dancing all over the show called made in Sweden for export

[@Tom_McMurtry]

Bjorn is talented re the guitar, however song and music writing is probably where his greatest talent lies. ABBA had some very talented behind the scenes session musicians who also toured with them, as well as a fantastic sound engineer - all of them collectively made one of the best groups in history.

[@sonosoloio]

this is one of the most epic, one of the best and not underrated but often forgotten ABBA songs 🦅

Lmao! Love the switch up!

[@markcreek487]

There is a great video clip to this song with images from ABBA The Movie. It is to the edited version but still great.

[@alexioverdo5225]

Yes Mark!This clip is exotic and the girls are so exceptionally beautiful anyone could instantly fall in love to their breathtaking sight while watching this.There's also a fan-made" long version" video by Weisskatzen1965 using extra parts from the film on the editing,a pure joy.

[@MarkJohnson-dr4ws]

Speaking of "right versions", have you listened to the actual single version of Gimme Gimme Gimme and not the abbreviated video version? The actual version is on the Gold album.

[@alexioverdo5225]

Despite your being little "naughty" while listening to this epic song and some viewers might got lil annoyed, i feel the need to be nice and say i'm grateful for u 2 youngsters doing that much of Abba songs each now n then.I excuse your "restlessness" cause you reminded me of the years i was your age as well.Glad you enjoy and that you are so well intented.

Gotta admit, I usually like your videos, but not this one so much. A little playfulness is entertaining at times, but this was over-the-top, especially for a song as awesome as Eagle. Everyone drops the ball sometimes.

@@alexioverdo5225 It's indeed very strange that Move On isn't included on any of their Best of-albums. Such a great song and it's never really mentioned anywhere except in a German shampoo comercial from the 80's... xD I recently read an article where they named it "The forgotten ABBA-song". It really seems to be true and that's sad. Is there a video of the live version of I Wonder here at youtube with a good quality? I have seen one video but the quality was so bad that I can't really say if the live version is better than the studio version.

@@Lisa-M I only know the audio version tbh.I own it in the single form and as a bonus on some special release of "The Album".MO could have been a huge hit if released in '77/78.Also they originally intented HIYS as the lead single but changed their mind.I'm sure this could have also been a hit in the rock US Market.

[@coolhive2941]

This is the song that I changed my mind on after many years of hearing it. I used to dislike it because it started off The aAlbum it’s the first track, and it just doesn’t fit in with the rest of their album and it doesn’t fit in with the rest of their catalog really. But over the years it’s really grown on me it reminds me of if Pink Floyd and Aba ever got together it would sound like this song or they could do this song. It really stands out in their catalog.

It would be enjoyable if you didn't have so much "teenage giggily." And talking constantly during it I don't know how you can truly enjoy one of the most famous POP groups of all time. When you did "Gimme Gimme Gimme" you mostly missed the intro which was so good that Madonna got ot use it for one of her songs later.
