    RIP Lasse Wellander, ABBA's guitarist, died on Good Friday from cancer aged 70. All his solos were fantastic in all the different bands he played and his thighs were the second ones to be massaged by Frida and Agnetha in the live version from Wembley 79 of Does Your Mother Know

    ABBA were noted for their harmonies, especially the female leads Agnetha (Blonde) and Anna-Frid (Brunette)
    They were the super group of the 70's and one the best selling artists of all time with a huge back catalogue of pop hits.
    You will probably be most familiar with "Dancing Queen" but you may find you recognise one or two others as their songs have been heavily sampled and covered.

    These is ABBA, the iconic Swedish pop quartet, the best, most versatile and most important of the 70s, in the post BEATLES decade (the revolutionary group of the 60s)
    ABBA, as in its time BEATLES, was a musical and cultural phenomenon, and its legacy lives on
    ABBA is the biggest musical act in the history of both continental Europe and the non-English speaking world They are the first non-English speaking group to have considerable success in major English-speaking countries And is the first group to break with the hegemony of NorthAmerican, English and Australian artists in the music market dominated by British culture.
    ABBA is an acronim with the initials of their first names; initialy was two swedish couples too:
    A- Agnetha (blonde lead vocal) &
    B- Björn (guitarist and songwriter)
    B- Benny (pianist and songwriter) &
    A- Anni Frid (brunette lead vocal)
    (both couples separated before the breakup of the group in 1982)
    ABBA recording between 1972/1982, have a wonderful series of more than 20 worldwide hits, included nine #1 in UK:
    Waterloo
    Mamma Mia
    Fernando
    Dancing Queen
    Knowing me knowing you
    The name of the game
    Take a chance on me
    The winner takes it all
    Super trouper
    And after more than 35 years ABBA return to studio in 2017 and recording a full new album "Voyage" between 2017/2021 released in November 2021 and is a worldwide succes
    And in last May 2022 all four ABBA members asist to the premiere of the new Voyage concerts (with avatars of Theirself) in the new ABBA Arena at London UK (another greatest success,, with tickets on sale to November 2023)
    ABBA begin Your famous when They win the classic Eurovisión Song Contest in UK with the icónic song Waterloo in April 6 (1974) exactly 49 years ago
    The ages of all ABBA members now is
    73 Agnetha Fältskog (yesterday her birthday)
    76 Benny Andersson
    77 Björn Ulvaeus & Anni Frid (Frida) Lyngstad
    I hope to see more reactions to ABBA
    GOD bless you

      The Beatles may have beaten Abba in record sales...
      But they never made anything even close to this song.
      Imo Abba has several songs that are better than the best work the Beatles ever produced but this song in particular is leaps and bounds beyond Lennon and McCartney at their best.
      This is proabably the best popsong ever made.

    ABBA in the begining two swedish couples:
    Agnetha (blonde singer) &
    Björn (guitarist songwriter)
    Benny (pianist songwriter) &
    Anni Frida (brunette singer)
    both couples separated before the breakup of ABBA in 1982:
    Agnetha & Björn at end of 1978
    Benny & Frida at begin 1981
    "The winner takes it all" (1980)
    is one of the Best Songs by ABBA
    and the Most sad and emotional too
    The best lyrics by the guitarist Björn
    and the greatest performing with the amazing Interpretation of
    the lead singer Agnetha Fältskog and her soprano voice
    The lyrics is a fiction about a divorce,
    it is not about Their real life,
    although it is obviously influenced by Their own experiences
    and the realization of the legal divorce between Agnetha & Björn in the middle of 1980,
    even though They were no longer a couple or lived together more than a year and half ago, at the end of 1978
    In fact, the song was more nearly in time to the split of Benny & Frida as a couple, only a few months later
    It have an Official Video with more than 117 millions views in UA-cam,
    was filmed on July 12 (1980), is a Masterpiece as the song
    (it shows the blonde singer Agnetha alone so sad and remembering happy times,
    and the others members so nice together, a perfect example of contrast feelings
    It's the first ABBA vídeo with images in black and white about Their previous history,
    to introduce us in the context; I think it's their best official video
    but just as a great performance by Agnetha is seen in these video,
    almost like a dramatic actress, transmitting the sorrow, anguish and pain,
    there are also videos in the back room of the filming, which show the four cheerful and funque
    "The winner takes it all" return ABBA to the Top of the charts,
    gives ABBA their eighth #1 in UK after almost two years and half
    Also was the fourth and last Top10 to ABBA in U.S (pick at #8 in 1981)
    and #1 in US Adult Contemporary too
    "The winner takes it all"
    was voted the Best ABBA song by the British fans,
    and is the favourite ABBA song to the blonde singer Agnetha
    and now in the new Voyage concerts at London the encore song is...
    "The winner takes it all"
    For a new reaction I suggest You
    "Dancing Queen" (1976)
    their biggest worldwide hit
    I wish to You a greatest weekend

      without disrespecting cultures and countries, but they are historical data of one of the members that does not change the essence of the Whole
      Frida was born in Norway, but since she was two years old she lived in the North of Sweden, there she grew up and trained, there she had her first musical experiences and participated in all the Swedish competitions, even winning a musical talent contest in Sweden
      so Frida is considered as Swedish as the rest of the ABBA members
      and she always refers to ABBA as a swedish quartet
      beyond where Frida was born or the story of her biological father who contributes nothing to the music of ABBA
      (which is why we are here)

      ABBA were masters of making lyrically sad songs so up-beat and happy sounding. 'Knowing Me Knowing You', being another example of a break up song sounding very happy. If you're not paying too much attention to the lyrics, then you could easily mistake this as being a happy or even Christmas, (although, that's a bit of a stretch), song.
