Oh my God! This rendition is a soothing balm for our souls devastated by the insane cruelty of this and any other war; thanks Benny for giving us a little hope , through the notes of this masterpiece.
Stunning. We recently played this track from the album at my Dad’s funeral and it made a truly beautiful moment. Thank you Benny. And thank you for sharing.
Thanks, Benny, for this truly heartbreaking cry for freedom, everywhere, as well as for every individual person who is grieving. Our choir will perform it in May.
Marvelous ! It is in itself an ode to freedom, Herr Beethoven wrote a pretty good ode to joy, the world could use more odes like these..at the end of the song one could sing two amens, fits very well..once again, thank you for the music ABBA 🙏🏻👍🏻👏❤️🇸🇪
from now on...I will never say that it is a song...it is a composition, and anthem.... If somebody would like, then should find a whole version - i mean with the end credits - choir - Kyiv solists...I live in Poland, I'm a polish guy....but my roots are in Ukraine.... even the flowers...the same colors as Swedish and Ukrainian flag !!!!!
Let’s hope the whole world will take notice of this life and humanity affirming piece of music without too obvious political messaging. Once again ABBA’s musical genius Mr. Andersson did something so poignant that puts ABBA’s musical legacy above the rest.
This is stunning.A wonderful song and beautifully sang.Thought the version on the Vogage Album great welldone Benny and Born. Thank you for uploading.xx
Bravo!! Kudos to the very, very great Maestro, Benny Andersson, the Kyiv Soloists & Eric Ericon's Chamber Choir. Benny & Abba have, in fact, proven that they have created an Ode To Freedom truly worth remembering. God bless you, Benny. I've been a big fan since 1975. Sending my sincere love, best wishes & all my daily prayers across the many miles from Sydney, New South Wales, Australia, in total solidarity with the people of the Ukraine. 👍🏻👏👏👏👏👏👏👏 Slava Ukraini !! 👍🏻💪💪💪👍🏻🇺🇦🇺🇦 😢🙏🕊🦘🇭🇲🇸🇪💙💛🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦
We have still war in Ukraine. I hope that music will change that. I know that never happen but we have always our dream that people sometimes will be wiser. Hälsingar från Finland, Helsinki.
Thank you! How appropriate. When the Album dropped in November, I was stunned by Ode to Freedom. I thought - what a wonderful and noble way to express the sentiment! And now it is even more stunning. This is what Ukraine is fighting for. Слава Україні!
@@bennyandersson-topic15 us there any option to send you my cover of this magic song? Im not sure if i can post it here, is occult video, much love to all Abba members💕!Stay safe!
@@bennyandersson-topic15 never had this opportunity, but i would like to meet you, it is my dream i live on Gran Canaria, as i know you planned to come before pandemia, but you decided not to come, maybe one day...❤
May Ukrainian freedom fighters resistig Putn's aggression be inspired and consoled. May Russian and Belarussion people join in the Ode to Feedom - and may we find peace in Europe.
Your comment is a shameless manipulation! Ukraine needs weapons to resist the aggression of a monstrous empire whose war crimes are shocking all the world!
@@andriykutasevych167 If you realise, this song is exactly about not being manipulated. This Ukraine needs, including you and me. We have become slaves of an western empire without a song we all could sing!... Believe Björn's own words, and understand for example the words and the song "By the Rivers of Babylon". We are the slaves in the hands of the enemy!
The sad truth is that songs & words simply do not speak to the hearts and minds of madmen and evil dictators like Putin. In brutal conflicts like this, history always teaches the paradox that Peace and Freedom have to be fought for.
@@markmartin9457 The receipt for freedom must be acceptable for peace, else something is wrong in your fight. You give your blood for a reason, when you agree to fight for peace. You must consider if your heart and your mind are with you in your own decision. Then you have faith and endurance in your fight. Some will loose life for the sake of truth and justice. They have peace with them in the fight, and have been accepted by peace, and have become a part of the peace.. I concept the peace as a pleasant being, we all should wait for, in troubled times. Peace is like a living gift you cannot live without, or buy for weapons or money, it requires work and blood - a fight, agree.:)
И всё-таки под Полтавой шведам мало показалось. Всё-таки надо сунуться вновь? 🇺🇦💔🇸🇪 And yet, near Poltava, the Swedes did not think much. Do you still need to jump in again?
Benny sei un grande musicista e si sa che volevi cimentarti in altre esperienze come questa ed altre. Ma dimenticarti delle ragazze che hanno contribuito al vostro successo no. In tutti questi anni potevi darle voce. Ma le hai dimenticate lo hai fatto ora molto tardi perché!!!?????. Aggiornami grazie.
@@henrikandersson3072 when people want to speak russian other people kill them.Russia comes back on russian territories.This land is russian allways.Did you want decommunisation? So, let it be.Lenin gave russian land to Ukraine.And Stalin also.Dont forget this facts.By the way, today Kherson and Zaporozhje said about referendum for returning in Russia.Russia allways finishes war.Cause Russia is right

The master of placiate and sublime themes! Have they some AI-engine to generate melted themes???😂
Is this arrangement available ? Love it !
Fantastic! Slava Ukraini!
Does anyone know if the sheet music for this arrangement is available anywhere?
it is, it has been transcribed for choir
The last Abba song written... what a painful irony.... there must be another Abba song to commemorate the Ukrainians victory and bravery and courage
Спасибо вам!!!
Из России.
We don't need to hear from Russian bots. Go away.
This is better than sending weapons to Ukraine. Support Ukraine with real peace, so the story should end.!

excuse me where is this?? when??
The Concert Hall (Konserthuset) in Stockholm in 2022.
Can't you see the colors of the Ukrainian flag are upside down? ...
Not as good as Frida's version !
Ever heard the higher notes? That’s Agnetha. 😉 She deserves credit equally. She’s not to be left out as it is an ABBA song, not a Frida song
It's a Agnetha and Frida song, not a Frida's song.
Probably you the only one who didnt understand what was that. It was nof performed for comparison. Its for Ukraine🇺🇦
All four are singing in the original version, not only Frida.
Leave Agnetha,s backing vocals out and hear what is left: no Abba.
I ' m dissopoint.ABBA never was connected with war and politic.We listen only one side.We must listen other side also
We are dissapointed with Russia and their war. Too good they are losing the war.
