No 2 voices have ever been so married and in unison. That sound is something exceptional. After 40 years the magic is very much there. They are simply musical geniuses.
Ode to Freedom is one of the most beautiful songs I've heard in a long, long time. This album simply grows on you each time you listen to it - The whimsical 'When you danced with me' immediately appealed to me on my first listen as did 'No Doubt about it', however, the ballads on this album are simply enchanting. I am loving this album!
Ode to freedom contains citation from Swan lake ballet
@@SergeOrlove
Only the opening couple of bars
You exactly say the right thing. These songs grow on you.
Some people listen just once and don't grasp the deepness and many layers of sounds and harmonies. Then they call the songs "thin" or "simple". Too bad, because they really miss a lot.
Björn and Benny are two geniuses of our time, I can hear these songs play in 50 years just as their old music plays today.
The ABBA story had a good ending after all😊
There is a song for everyone and every mood on this album. It is the return of ABBA at their best. The intricate harmonies of Agnetha and Frida are just sublime - nothing's changed in 40 years, absolutely brilliant. Congratulations ABBA!!
Ode to freedom is stunningly beautiful ♥
Thankfully Abba have always done their own thing nd not followed the pack, that's why their music lives on while lots of groups artists have disappeared
You reaction makes me so happy! I was an ABBA fan when I was in high school in the 1980s... so I was about the only ABBA fan that I knew and I drove my friends nuts. Most Americans thought ABBA was that throwaway disco group that did Dancing Queen. So getting to first see ABBA's music make a come back after the success of Mamma Mia was such a joy to me, and watching reaction videos from all around the world and people going "Damn they are good!" made me feel vindicated after all these years. And when I wastched the live announcement on 5 September, I was a mess... and now getting to see you react... so much joy. They will never know how much joy they have brought this 56 year old woman in the US... but they really have. I connect with your joy.
I feel like some of the songs are either continuations of stories or bookends... Don't Shut Me Down feels like the sequel ot One of Us (she left and then went back)... and Keep An Eye On Dan is a follow on to SOS.... I saw another interpretation of that one... it's apparently a mom dropping off her son with her ex for visitation, and the verses are how she really feels and the chorus is her stumbling thru talking to the ex to keep from crying.
ABBA has given the world a gift in a way only they could.
Great reactions. "I Can Be That Woman" could be a song about alcohol abuse. The woman is regretting having sunk so low, but hopes her relationship can survive. It is evident that things are so fragile because even the dog seems to know there is something wrong. Bumblebee is about our environment and whether we will have a world in the future like we have today, with all of the beautiful things..... like bumblebees. Dan is the woman's child, and she wonders if she still loves her ex. The pain of giving up her child to her ex tears her up inside, and she worries that her ex won't "keep an eye on Dan." ABBA has chosen topics that we never hear about in pop music today. They have the same great musicianship they have always had, and now have added profound and relevant simplicity to their lyrics. They are "truly "Now and then combined."
Incredible thoughts and insight thank you so much
It just excites me that there are people my age in their 20s and younger who love ABBA as much as our parents. Just think we’re all living in an ABBA generation! I’m so grateful for music that is so relatable and relevant and will never go out of style. God Bless the four known as ABBA and their amazing music!
"Little Things" is, I believe, a bookend to "Slipping Through My Fingers." They're singing about experiencing their children again through their grandchildren. Both are very moving ballads about the passage of time.
Nice observation and thought!
I don't think so. The lyrics refer to their children not grandchildren playing with their new toys.
@@stephengrayson8896 Of course not literally. But both can be filed under "ABBA songs about children".
ABBA managed to squeeze some tears out of me with the song "I Can Be That Woman".
I'm from Germany and the songs "When You Danced With Me" & "Keep an eye on Dan" got played here by radio stations up and down 24/7.
In Germany the album outsold all other top 100 albums combined. In the UK they outsold all other top 40 albums combined.
Could become the top album of 2021.
Damn; that makes me jelous. None of the Voyage tracks are played on radio at all here in Sweden, which is really embarassing.
Great video! Funny thing... you said ” Imagine to play the violin on an ABBA record”. I smiled when you said that since my brother played the violin on The albums Arrival and Souper Trouper. 😀🎶🎶🎶
Wow, that is cool!!
That's amazing...he must be chuffed...
wow this is beautiful. Your reaction is so pure and honest, I love it.
Great to see such enthusiasm for Abba in one so young! I was 14 when I fell in love with Agnetha in 1975! This album is so much better for us older fans because it’s been such a long wait, but the stand out track for me is I Can Be That Woman. Nobody does these sad story songs better than Agnetha. Bjorn has said that it is dedicated to Tammy Wynette (hence the dog’s name) and is about alcohol/drug abuse, and the desire to get clean. Bumblebee - no metaphors needed. It’s a straight out plea for the insects we need so much and are on the brink of wiping out. Try listening again with that in mind and not welling up!!
THIS ALBUM IS A MASTERPIECE. LEGENDARY ABBA SOUND IS BACK ON FULL FORCE. THEY HAVE STAYED TRUE TO THEMSELVES, NOT TRYING TO SOUND AS ANY OTHER ACT AROUND. THANK YOU ABBA🤩🤩🤩🤩
So glad and grateful for the younger generation that is discovering ABBA!
I find almost all of ABBA`s songs/lyrics are personal. Agnetha, Björn, Benny and Annifrid are all humble, nice, honest and decent human beings; down to earth people.
They are just like anybody else, with all of their flaws, traumas, embarrassments, difficulties etc. They know that, and they do not put themselves over anybody else. In addition, they are even generous with sharing those painful experiences with us, so that we have the opportunity to feel our own pain - and heal it. They also share their joy and happiness with us; all their precious feelings. That is why their music touches all of us, young as old and everyone in between. That makes their music so GREAT, and SPECIAL. I think. What do you think?
In addition, all about ABBA is natural. They could easily have artificially “fixed” the ladies “older” voices and other things, but they refrained from doing so. Their music it is genuine right through.
As far as I know, no other band is doing the same today; the temptation is too big to fix almost everything to perfection. ABBAs music is therefore REAL MUSIC. Today it is unusual, which makes them so BIG!
As a Swedish woman from the late sixties I've been listening to ABBA since I was a little girl and it gives me such joy to see young people appreciate their music. They are timeless and absolutely amazing. They've captured my heart a long time ago and it makes me proud to be from Sweden when I hear any of their songs. So talented and so humble in their approach to their fans all around the world. Thank you very much for the fine reaction! Wish you all the best!
So nice words, I could not have said it better myself. I am 38 years of age, and through my Swedish mother, who is a BIG ABBA fan, I have listened to ABBA since before I was born. I am now just as big fan of ABBA as my mother!
I can be that woman made me tear up so much and it still does. It's the most emotional track on that album😭😭
Yes, that is already an epic Masterpiece. Such depth, such wisdom, such vulnerability, honesty and then so much hope.
The intro to ´bumblebee´ reminds me of ´Fernando´, and the ending of ´keep an eye on Dan´ reminds me of ´SOS´
Love Abba! I feel the same way, love the upbeat songs more than the slower ones. Don't Shut Me Down and No Doubt About It are 🔥🔥
A little Trivia .. Did you know that they were once offered 1 Billion Dollars to perform a series of concerts basically 100 Million a show & they turned it down..
Because they felt that they would not be able to give the level of performance they demand of themselves & if they could not perform at that level they would not subject their fans to an inferior performance.
Times & technology have changed & while you can hear a bit of the years in their voices...
Not owing us anything they gifted us with an absolutely stunning album.
This album is the capstone to their careers & puts the seal on their truly being the greatest pop music group in history.
Yes, I have read that. And some people say that ABBA is putting up the arena in London because of the money it brings in! Phu, nonsense! They do it of love to us fans! :)
my personal favorite of them all is just a notion. i’m obsessed with all of it though 💕
I loved to watch you listening. 🤗 I am from Sweden and I love ABBA. I love all the songs on this album. Have a good time and life. You are a sweet girl.
Little things. I think its unexpected. I do adore the thing that highlight the things we take for granted. I'm glad Abba stuck to their gun. Abba has transformed and they're unabashed in singing it.
I loved your review and I share your love of ABBA - No Doubt About It !!! x
I can’t choose a fav song, they are all so special to me for different reasons OMG THEY ARE SO CUTE 🥰 I just love them so much 🥺
When I saw the track listing with Ode to Freedom as a title, I worried it'd be some arrogant celeb bombastic preachy thing, but if subverted that completely, saying no, we aren't going go preach, that if we did, our privilege would make us suspicious.
This is deconstructive brilliance on another level.
Except Bumblebee is about climate change and Bjorn has been outspoken on issues, so, they do understand the concept of using your influence for good.
They seem to have a natural humility.
I love this video, you are very talented in picking up on the deeper messages in the songs. You also radiate a positivity and happiness which is so refreshing to see . 💜
I suppose Dan is a kid (made-up name I guess) and the song is about shared custody. And the feelings that divorced people might go through
"I Can Be That Woman" is also a tribute to country music legend Tammy Wynette whose marriage was plagued by alcohol and prescription drug abuse.
Hi Emily! I found your channel looking for ABBA Reactions! I graduated High School in 1982. It's amazing ABBA returned 40 Years later. It's exciting seeing a Younger Generation discovering ABBA.
I’m so glad I got to experience that with you. I smiled the WHOLE time.
Hi Emily. This reaction video of yours is magnificent! Most reactions are slightly slanted with a "It should be this way" kind of thinking. Yours was pure reaction as it should be. Bravo to you! I am now a subscriber based on your reaction video. I think ABBA's "Voyage" album is a masterpiece & a special gift from ABBA to their loyal fans. I am a big fan of ABBA like you (If they release a CD of them coughing & sneezing...I'll buy it!!! My top ABBA song of all time is "Honey Honey". This song is so uplifting & motivational for me. Listen to it on headphones without distractions (Phone off, door locked, lights off, when everyone is sleeping). It has so much in it! I love how the orchestra seeps in & makes me feel like I'm flying on wings of melody! It pays homage to the oldies with the "oom bop bop bops, the call & response structure, after the chorus rev-up for the next verse, etc. I Abbasolutely love this song!!! One more thing. Your reaction video was pure reality. Keep all your reactions real like this one & I'm sure your success (& subscribers) will grow. Take care!
Omg, I loooooooveeeeeeeee this album so much!! I'm not a girl that listen to upbeat and happy songs, I'm more like slow and "sad" songs (maybe because I'm such a drama queen 😂😂) but I really enjoy ABBA's happy songs.
The first time I listened to this album I felt like the lyrics and the music were a little repetitive and those things stress me out but, also, I was anxious about something that was going to happen after that day and the second time I listened I fell in love with it!! Like, can you marry an album? 😅😅😅
Also, I'm a violinist and the last song with the orchestra was 😍😍😍😍😍 omg I wanna play it
I love the 🎻 violin work in "keep an eye on Dan "....amazing ABBA....Ireland.
istg ive cried so much over abba since the voyage announcement, it still hasnt fully hit me theyre back and this made me so happy :) the new album is so meaningful and beautiful i love it so much
Wonderful Abba's album!
I love your reactions, they reflect this wonderful album perfectly!
Bees are dying in huge numbers due to insecticides and with government action there is a real possibility that future generations will not hear them. This is ABBAs environmental contribution with a timely release.
One expects a song with the title "Ode to Freedom" to be a pretentious ode to freedom. Cleverly this is NOT. It is, as the title says, a song ABOUT an ode to freedom! Brilliant.
Nice review, Yep, what Tanner said, Dan is her son, she's dropping him off with her ex for the weekend, and giving him instuctions to do his job as a Dad. Bumblebee is a commentary on climate change, she says she loves to hear Bumblebees and feels for the people in the future who won't know bumblebees.
*If without bumblebees there's only 5 more years left...* *_(Albert Einstein)_*
Keep an eye on Dan is a song about love for a son. And a recognition of the sons vulnerability. Such a rare sentiment for a song. It’s beautiful.
I never saw that people aged over seventy gave so many yoy to the mankind like ABBA. Thank you.
I really enjoyed your reaction. Well done!
I think many of us get choked up when we hear them 40 years later because we were fans in the 70s and 80s. To hear them now is such a brave move! I tear up because I'm proud of them!!
One thing I've learned as I age (and heard from my then 89 year old nana years ago) is that I still feel as young on the inside as I ever have...it's just the outside doesn't match anymore!
Bjorn basically said the same thing in a YT interview about this album
Bjorn also said there might be another spectacular ABBA Voyage Concert in Singapore some time in the near future, so hopefully they'll have a spectacular concert or two here in the United States as well. Most of ABBA's of the 70s and 80s songs makes you want to dance any way you want to freestyle, I equally love them as I do the Beatles.
I am also very proud of them. Being half Swedish makes my heart burst of love for them!
Enjoyed your reactions. Although you had heard them before, I think it's a pity you didn't do the other three songs because they are all great and an integral part of the whole, if you understand what I mean. I've been so excited about this album since it came out. Such variety showcasing their wide scope, but all having a distinctive Abba sound. My favourite (like the majority from what I've read so far) is the brilliant emotional and danceable "Don't Shut Me Down" but honestly I love them all and as you said there are various back-stories and deeper meanings as well as the on the surface storytelling. There are songs for different occasions/ moods (such as Irish/Scottish Ceilidh: When You Danced With Me, Country Song: I Can Be That Woman, Christmas Day: Little Things, Feel good dance-along about starting a relationship: Just a Notion, Mature themes like the struggle of leaving your child with your ex or dealing with friction in relationships: Keep An Eye On Dan and No Doubt About It, Environmental: Bumblebee, and that final fantastic clever musical treat that isn't an Ode to Freedom! What an album! Brilliant first time you hear it and gets better with every play. 🙂
Great,youthful reaction and I had to chuckle a bit, about the young generation hearing big orchestration, immediately think about movie scores. Myself,being grown up with ABBA, when hearing "Ode to Freedom" right away remembered Verdi's "Hebrew slave choir" and Offenbach's Barcarole.
Benny is definitively more inspired by those classics.
With "I can be that woman", Agnetha delivered the most emotional and intimate performance of an ABBA-song since "The winner takes it all". She is and always was, a true, emotional and sincere storyteller with a fitting, gorgeous voice. She's a tear-maker.
I freaking LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE ABBA !! i'm 53 and grew up with ABBA not necessarily being a huge fan but in the last 15 years i have grown back to love them watching Mamma Mia movie watching how they started and grew up and split and omg OMG i got two copies of it today and freaking am crying with joy and sorrow over it , This video is awesome Cheers to you and awesome to see you being a superfan
Ditto as a 77 year old!
Ditto as a 61 year old. I watched them on tv winning the ESC in 1974.
The first song was very inspired by Irish music by the sounds of it, some fiddle and violin in there xx
Nice, sensible and thoughtful comments from you Emily! Thank you for your reaction! ABBA has a song for every moment in my life - i'm 50 now. From my childhood till my experience as a father of two beautiful girls, I have a particular song from ABBA to meditate and rejoice upon! Thank you!
8:50 - SIMPLY GORGEOUS... love your natural reaction and enthusiasm.
ABBA committed all income from “Little Things” to UNICEF. They did that with their song “Chiquita” back in the 70 so UNICEF has received income from that ABBA song for over 40 years, hopefully will be the same for “Little Things”.
Love the new ABBA album.
Emily - Love this Album too, you reminded me of me 40 years ago when I used to listen to a new ABBA song thanks P
She’s right about WYDWM having a sea shanty feel. It’s very folky and has a Celtic feel. Very linked with sea shanty’s.
You’re like lucky you didn’t have to wait forty years for new music. I was 19 when they released their last album. The SOS hook at the End of …Dan” must mean something…
Real music from the most lovely group ever, it's the most amazing album. Moody and atmospheric, it's been fun watching your first listen. ✨🙂
ABBA is a phenomenon! So now you understand why they have so many dedicated fans that love them! Not only are they a rare talent, they are also humble, down to earth and pristine. Very good, genuinely nice and caring people.
We needed them❤️
After 40 years such a masterpiece......congrats ABBA.....and ODE TO FREEDOM.....this song needs the world and has to think about these unique lyrics......THANK YOU FOR THE WHOLE MUSIC ABBA
Haha I had the same reaction to Keep an Eye on Dan, until I realised it was about dropping off you kid Dan to your ex husband, and how she still cares for him.
Thanks for sharing. UA-cam channels have made it easy to find out how others like the album. I feel like I am listening with people all over the world. Loved it. I am so happy they got to do something that some bands like the Beatles never got to do. Such a gift to the fans. I am impressed. At the age of 75 they still have it. As a college professor I wonder how many of my students would give this a chance. It just makes me happy to hear their sound again. I listen to so many other diverse things but this brought me back to a sound that no one can do like they do. I didn’t read all comments but I am sure some said Bumblebee was about global warming (Frida has done some work here I understand). No Doubt is so fun. When We Danced is just plain cool. Ode is landmark. So much discussion could happen on this song alone. I was not surprised on another video it was voted 2nd on the album. Your expression after the first line says it all. Of course the early release magic 3 are epic. I can’t stop listening. Thanks for letting us be part of your experience.
You are so lovely! U remind me of Agnetha!! Great reaction to the best album ever!! Happy ABBA day everyone.
I absolutely love your reaction to ABBA ... so much fun listening to you ... I have loved them since in the 70 and I think they are the greatest band ever !
I have connected with you and just a little reminder from listening to others reactions .. someone said that youtube blocks the channel if you dont stop two or three times with every song .. it´s a little frustrating not hearing the whole song but they have weird rules, maybe check it out and I look forward to your next reaction .. Greatings from Denmark
Emily....first of all...you are so cute. I just love your reaction to ABBA´s new album. I´m a Swede and I am soo proud of ABBA as a group and that they are Swedish. Just love that you, the younger generation appreciate their music. They have a way of touching your heart with the music and lyrics. I know that the US wasn´t their strongest market for them back in the day due to the fact that Agnetha had a scare of flying so they couldn´t perform so much in the US as they wanted. However, with this album they reached number 2 on the Billboard. Very Impressive! Btw The Dan song is about a custody battle. Maybe not a battle but it seems like both of them still love each other and are very concerned about their son Dan wich `get´s out of hand´.Much love to you and stay safe!♥
Apart from your musical taste, which I share when it comes to ABBA, your appearance in this video is so nice, spontaneous and cute, that this makes this video one of my favorites. Ik really like you and the way you show your enthousiasm and emotions. Keep up and never change that! Oh, about Don't Shut Me Down, I really love the hints to Dancing Queen in Benny's small piano parts in the transitions and key changes, and in the second chorus at 3.00 (wow!), the hint to the sad mood of The Day Before You Came in the first verse (the way Agnetha sings it) and the groove that makes me think of SOS... To me this song contains many aspects of a wide ABBA's repertoire! A masterpiece it is.
Emily, I think you capture ABBA's greatness in the first few seconds of your reaction to Ode to Freedom. It perhaps is not their best song, but your reaction is interesting.
Being Swedish, I wish you could talk to my girlfriends (not girlfriends) back in 70/80's when they pretended the end of the skipping ropes to be microphones, imagining themselves to be Agnetha and Frida.
I adore your attitude, your reactions! Thanks!
Very astute and sincere review. Cheers for posting!
Hi Emily! Greetings from Spain. I would love to be able to tell you all the emotions that this new ABBA album has brought to me, while I have been listening to it, since it is true that with each new listening it grows within you ... until it blossoms. And I want to do it because you’ve impressed me, you are so natural, fresh, cute and emotional... but I don't have time or space here 😅. At least you have a new subscriber in me! Now I'm looking forward to seeing your reactions to Voyage's first three released songs. Keep it up!
Ps. Oops…! You didn’t make any reaction video on the first new ABBA songs… 🤦🏻♂️ Well, now I see that this is your first ever reaction video 😅… I suggest you to do many more! And not only ABBA… music from the 70’s perhaps? The hippy and psychedelic era? Which other musicians do you like…? I am very curious about (I am a music lover…).
Video idea--come up with a proposed story for a mamma Mia 3 using only songs from Abba Voyage
My favourites are I Still Have Faith in You, Don't Shut Me Down, and No Doubt About It. I also just bought the album Ring Ring - it's new to me. And I've created a huge playlist of lots of their lesser known material such as Tiger, Happy Hawaii, The King Has Lost His Crown, Eagle, One Man One Woman, I'm a Marionette etc. ABBA is exploding - not least in my mind. lol. Fabulous!
I love Eagle!!! 👍
Greetings from Athens Greece…we love your channel!
This is the best way to view life. Always upbeat and positive.
Bumblebee is about climate change. As the climate changes, the bumblebees all would die.
Now that a few months have passed since your reaction, I'd love to know what your thoughts are on the album now, after several listens. There isn't an ABBA song I don't like, but there are some on this Voyage album I didn't love the first or even 20th time of listening, but have since grown to become songs I do now love (No Doubt about It was instant, I Can Be that Woman and Bumblebee took a while)
Great reactions to the songs. You rightly noticed that at the end of "Keep An Eye On Dan" there was a piano from "SOS". It's like two stories linked together.
P. S. Your friend is probably one of the crazy ones :)
Play her song "Head over Heels" :)
Are you going to a concert in London?
This album is so wise and deep
*No Doubt About It* is a rearramgement of this older song that was considered at the time a simple throw away song that at the time no one really thought much of ..
*Bumble Bee* if you take it at face value is a gentle plea to protect all smaller forms of life & without the bees we're pretty much doomed.
*Keep An Eye On Dan* is dealing with coparenting
*I Can Be That Woman* definitely dealing with addiction & the fallout from it in a relationship
Easter Eggs.....
Did you catch the small keyboard run of SOS at the end of Keep an Eye on Dan??
And The Fernando Pipes on Bumble Bee??
"No Doubt About It" is a brand new song. "Just A Notion" is the from a 1978 demo that wasn't finished. They kept the original vocals and added a new backing track with guitars, horns and Benny's amazing piano wizardry. It's pure joy.
Love your "Mamma Mia" style font in your intro :p hehe
I almost gasped when you asked who was lead on "I Can Be That Woman" ....come on girl haha, you knew who it was...just was taken by the song for a minute! :p And with "Bumblebee"...no metaphor ...just straight up about the bumblebee ...
Fantastic 1st reaction video, excellent!
Great video....love your reactions!!
I'm not a sappy kinda guy, but "I can be that woman", kinda made me almost unhappy. The sadness, no.. grief... over a 2 year old break-up came back to haunt me. Anybody who has been through a breakup knows how it feels. When first, you're so in love that it feels like you've met your soulmate, the person you've been waiting for all you life, perfect for you in every single way... and then to have it all fall apart. All you wanna do is to go back in time. You see things spiraling towards the inevitable end, and you just don't want it to happen. You fight it way too long, and along the way there is only pain.
You can really see how their songs progress, as if the album is their life. The fall in love, have children, break up, deal with the aftermath, share custody of the children... all those mundane things that are about a million miles away from the glits & glam of "Dancing Queen" "Money money money". etc.
The only error I see with this album, and it's a pretty severe one... is that "Don't Shut Me Down" should have been the last song on there. Because it's about her, now several years later coming back to him. They've both grown as people, and now she is back asking if they can get back together. I know that song is also about them as a group, and how they're asking the listener not to judge them or compare them to what they used to be, and see them for who they are now. But the other songs on the album but "Don't Shut Me Down" in an entirely new context, and it should have been the last song. Because... I wouldn have wanted that happy end.
I Can Be That Woman is about Tammy Wynette, a popular American folk singer, and her stormy relationship with her husband
Agnetha is the lead on “I Can Be That Woman” 😊 Björn stated that it’s about a woman who’s battled an addiction, not necessarily tea/beef between them 😬
“Keep An Eye On Dan” is about a woman sharing custody with her child, Dan :) The ending of KAEOD is part of the SOS melody 😬
Overall I really enjoyed this album! Agnetha and Anni-frid’s voices aged beautifully, while Benny and Björn’s music composition has stayed the same (in a good way!)
Great reaction Emily
Yay Abba! Yay Emily!
just love your authenticity! XXX
This is so good!
My favourite songs are "Keep and eye of Dan" and "I can be that woman".
I believe this is the follow on to the visitors album n one of there best songs the day before you came. This is adult mature pop. But i can't believe it's taken so long. My son wasn't even born and I n my wife have become grandparents. Abba ur music will still last for another century. So is there a chance of another album please..
Partner loves all there new songs of voyage
In 'I can be that woman' is Agneta in lead and Björns lyrics
Awesome reaction. Subscribed.
for i can be that woman is a lead of anni- frid lyngstad and duet with agnetha faltskog
Keep an eye on dan is about co parenting for their son. They are ex lovers with a child (Dan). My absolute faves aside from the the released singles of course are When you danced with me, keep an eye on dan and Ode to Freedom..
No it doesnt break any new ground! Wasnt suppose to. You either like the sound of the band or you dont. I personally was blown away by how wonderful the musical arrangements were on many of the songs and how wonderful a couple of 70 plus year old women can still sound together.
Can't fake a smile like that 😄
I'm not quite sure why people keep referring to "When you Danced with Me" as a "sea shanty." Sea shanties are usually rather dour affairs designed to keep seaman in unison when hefting sails or rigging. This is a joyous folk dance song. It's even in the lyrics. Village Fair, music and dancing. Which is something they still do en masse in Sweden, especially during the long summer nights.
im a abba maniac too i so love this= new album. when you danced with me i love classic abba mixed with irish jig
The ending of Keep an Eye on Dan sounds like the beginning of SOS.
