That was a beautiful tribute to both Frida and ABBA, but Frida is by far my favorite, and I also consider the other 3 icons as well. They all have been through a lot and still manage to stay together as a group/band and most importantly, as friends💕💕 They all contribute something to the band. I admire Frida a lot. She NEVER gave up on anything she did or set out to do, especially when things/events in her life got rough. I don't know what else to say about her, I'm speechless ,except my heart goes out to her 😘🥰💕⚘⚘⚘⚘

Agnetha may have drawn more attention when her back was turned, but Frida was so much more beautiful, and she had stage presence far beyond the three others.

[@alexdaniel1045]

Agreed

[@ЛарисаАскирко]

Tastes differ, I love them both, Agnetha is my most favour a Frida too.

[@graphiquejack]

Agnetha had blonde hair and the tush. Frida had her green eyes and smile, and the legs. Both women were beautiful, both women were talented. They had very different yet complimentary personas… fire and ice. It worked really well as a dynamic for the group, and their voices together were perfection.

[@gregorymata9154]

Frida is the most accesible of all 4.the most humble and i think she wast the most abba member that enjoyed being an A. And....she is the love of my life!! P.s. her smile and green eyes just are amazing and inforgettable!

[@eduardooscar309]

Another comment and suggestion: do not worry about the rivalries that arise in some fans especially about Frida and Agnetha The best definition of them was given by their teammates Björn and Benny They believe that Frida shines more as a singer, while Agnetha shines more as a performer in fact, in the last report this year, Frida defined Agnetha as the best storyteller

[@alexdaniel1045]

Yes, I heard that interview, they talk so beautifully about each other and also so humble when it comes to talking about themselves

[@graphiquejack]

Agnetha is great at storytelling, so in that sense she ‘performs’ a song well, but Frida was the better live performer who was more comfortable and confident on stage.

[@tanguerogo]

@@graphiquejack you dont ever get it, Jack. There is no better or worse here. Agnetha didnt need to spin around on the stage, she had so much charisma and the high emotionality of her voice. Her presence alone was captivating. And this does not take anything away from Frida! Both ladies were gorgeous, and the match of those four was made in heaven.

[@tanguerogo]

Just watch MY LOVE, MY LIFE, which Benny and Björn wrote to show what a great singer Agnetha was. She was shining like the sun on her great songs, like SOS, Winner Takes..., Day B4 U Came etc. So, stop these silly comparisons. Frida and Agnetha were both just fantastic, and it is hard to believe how those good looking, glamouros charismatic girls could as well be the best band vocalists of all times, and all that together in the same band!

[@eduardooscar309]

It is the first time I see your channel, searches related to ABBA brought me here I want to congratulate you on your work, although many things are known (the life of ABBA members is public, despite the many care that The Four took responsibly for their privacy) the only observation I would make is that, musically, "Take a chance on me" is a song where Agnetha excels in the solos, and also with her most powerful high-pitched voice in catchy chorus now I hope you continue with the remaining members of ABBA the Fab Four from Sweden earned their place on the Greatest Podium in the history of rock and pop music see you in the next video a cordial greeting from Buenos Aires, Argentina

My wife is 62 and you could almost put her and Frida’s pictures from teenager to today and they would be close to twins. Both even went from redhead to blonde and both have that little extra spark in life.

her father was N O T a nazi soldier, he was a german soldier. there is a very big difference in being a soldier and commandered to do things and in doing things because you believe in it. Norway was occupied by the germans during WW2 and is was not looked kindly upon the girls who had affairs with the germans- hence why her grandmother moved to Sweden with Frida

[@Vikinggirl1679]

German soldiers were all nazi soldiers! Who do you think they fought for? Santa clause?

[@chelseacharger]

@@Vikinggirl1679 But it doesn't mean they believed in the ideology of the National Socialists. Look at German election results from 1928 to 10 years later. They were always a minority party when there were free elections but they gradually intimidated political opponents to become a one party state. In a dictatorship like that, you became an enemy of the state for not supporting them. Refusal to join the military could result in execution. That is why a distinction should be made between 'German' and 'Nazi'.

[@Vikinggirl1679]

Oh please! Who did he represent???? Who did he occupy Norway for???? Every German soldier was fighting for the nazi idealism. And I'd be willing to bet she was not Alfred Hausse only Norwegian child. Lebensborn

[@Squad61]

So much incorrect information! Did you get your info from tabloids? For example, not every German soldier in WW2 were Nazi's. Most of them were drafted in the army. And Frida Ensam included the first original version of Fernando, in Swedish. That became a huge hit, resulting in the English version by ABBA. Missing out on this sort of background information makes your total video sucks!

[@alexdaniel1045]

Thank you for your comment! I am sure you could have worded it nicer, but, hey, that's just how you talk: rude

[@Squad61]

Well I think it is rude publishing this kind of information, without any fact checking, assuming here father was a Nazi. Then you missed so many other highlights of Frida, for instance here cooperation with Phil Collins, here single with Jon Lord, ( The sun will shine again) and here last recording with Arturo Sanduval were she sang Andante Andante in spanish. That was before getting back in the studio. So in my opinion; you took some clips from the Internet, some pics, added the text you got from unreliable sources just to get a few "clicks" on YT since ABBA is big business after there release of Voyage. Have you ever read the book, bright lights dark shadows?

[@alexdaniel1045]

@@Squad61 Yes, I have read the book. What you are doing is getting lost in the semantics of he was in the Nazi army, but he wasn't a Nazi, that's irrelevant and I had already explained a lot of the situation. His politics didn't influence her so it doesn't matter. Frida did many things and worked with many people, this isn't a detailed biography, it's highlights so we can get to the point of why she is iconic. She's not remembered for her solo career, no matter how good her albums were so I offered a glimpse of that. ABBA is always big business and if I wasn't a fan, I would have probably done a video on the entire band, not just one of the members ;) Instead of helping me understand what you didn't like from the get-go, so I can hopefully grow and make better videos, you only managed to make me rather sad.
