I don't think we've realized how much of a miracle it was to see ABBA return for one more album after 40 years. In this period, any of them could have died or lost their music abilities, but not only they were still alive and well, they were still pretty solid in their talents and they gave us ten more amazing songs that fit perfectly into their long list of genial works.
Abba hasnt returned only on CD. The show is a modern lightshow. Don't belive everything Abba marketing is telling you and I have been a fan for 50 years but for a lightshow I don't spend a penny
I recently started cataloguing my record collection, I have three abba albums and I can only imagine the magic of placing a needle on the record and listening to those lyrics along the world for the first time. The songs are so happy sounding, cheerful and pure magic and beauty, but the lyrics make me question my existence in the world and the reality of my emotions. They’re magical.
Their songs, lyrically, are simple. They wrote what they knew, themselves. Writing the personal transformed to universal the decade after they disbanded. Their music outlived their competitors of the day. They didn't leave anything to chance.
No matter what those critics (and some awful manipulators such as R. Christgau) had said at the time.Future proved F-ABBA are survivors and there's still no body to touch them in their field.Absolutetly nobody!Now they are evergreen, up in their thrones and deep in my heart forever.
Benny said 90 percent of ABBAs success is because of the two ladies voices and how they harmonize. There’s something magical about it. It’s a synthesis of their vocals blending together creating a third element. Benny and Bjorn realized they had lightning in a bottle when they decided to concentrate on writing the songs and have Agnatha and Frida sing the songs. That was very wise! And nobody else sounds like them. It’s instant recognition when you hear them. They have a unique and original sound.
eu concordo com o que Benny falou. Sem as vozes das duas garotas o ABBA não existiria. Elas são maravilhosas até hoje. Os dois bobos não poderiam ter traído essas lindas, simpaticas, inteligentes e talentosas mulheres.
Agnetha and Frida are what make ABBA the magic it is. There is something in their voices that when they sing together it just something else. Not merely pop. It is mastery.
I am immensely grateful to ABBA and their fantastic music These four talented and humble Swedes shone in the Anglo-Saxon world and even had great success in Spanish-speaking countries without giving up their Swedish idiosyncrasy and culture: lived in Sweden recorded in Sweden filmed in Sweden with musicians from Sweden and in a surprising and unprecedented unexpected event, the four returned together to the recording studio after 35 years and despite the covid 19 pandemic they went ahead and finished a new album in 2021 (which they couldn't do in 1982/1983) and inaugurated a new ABBA Arena stadium with the start of new ABBA Voyage concerts the only thing that I would ask of ABBA, myself and their many fans, is that they encourage themselves to finish the production and edit the songs that they saved and that are excellent, like "just like that" Also, my eternal gratitude to Agnetha Benny Björn A. Frida the Fabs Four from Sweden
I agree. At least from my family in Argentina (and my whole town I would say), no one has ever heard ABBA in Swedish or English. Their decision to record in Spanish made their career a huge success in Latin America, and we took it as a part of our culture.
If I may add in my opinion no other pop group in history will ever sound like ABBA, they are still unique two beautiful women with absolutely stunning vocals and two handsome men who knew what they were and still are doing .I feel very privileged to have been an ABBA fan all my life they deserve all the accolades that are bestowed upon them .
I couldn't have said it better... They were masters of their art... My sister and I were introduced as children to their music by our aunt who lived in Germany The only music we had listened to until then was Indian music.. ABBA was our introduction to Western music...It was the early 80s and we had no idea that we were listening to the greatest act in Western pop music. As fans of ABBA we were truly lucky to have been a witness to the greatness of truly moving music.
My forever favourite group. I saw them live in Melbourne in 1977. I saw ABBA Voyage twice in London in 2022. Amazing! Their music and clips always lift my spirit. I will love this fabulous 4 until my last breath. Their music will be celebrated at my departure. Everyone who knows me, knows how much I love them. Sending love from Australia. X
Why we love Abba?Because they were 4 beautiful people who made beautiful music and made people feel even more beautiful.That simply explained but so hard to find another Abba.
I know exactly where I was standing the first time I heard ABBA .. SOS .. I'd never heard of them .. Had no idea what they looked like .. BUT I WAS HOOKED FROM THAT MOMENT .. I cannot tell you how much joy they have brought me the last nearing 50 years .. I am "THANKFUL FOR THE MUSIC" .. TgT
I was 13 when ABBA hit it big in Australia and I was a fanatic. I still love them and I don’t think people in other countries realise how big they were here. They are a part of our cultural history in Australia.
Ah Paul - I think it's hard to describe to people just how big they were here in Australia, unless you were actually here. I was about 6 years old when they hit it big here - living in a small town in country Victoria on the banks of the Murray River, and they stole the hearts of everyone. They are the first music that I vividly recall, and I think they influenced the type of music that I have listened to ever since. Not once did my brother and sister and I ever have to ask to get one of their albums when they came out - because if my parents hadn't already bought it for us, then my grand parents had. They had such universal appeal - and Australia just took them into our hearts. Fun fact: they actually sold more albums in Australia, than they did collectively in the rest of the world. That's no mean feat when you think about it. We were a country of about 14 million people at the time, a bit isolated at the bottom of the world - about as far from Sweden as you could possibly get. Think of a world with no internet, smart phones, instant communication - that was life in the 70's. And still, they took us all by storm. And at age 53, they are still the music that I listen to the most. Thank you ABBA, for all that you brought us. Love from James - Melbourne, Australia
@@jameswalker68 James, you have captured it so well. I’m 55 and also grew up in Melbourne. We couldn’t afford the concert so our parents took us to the freeway pedestrian bridge at Essendon Airport to see them drive past from Tullamarine! Nothing reminds me of my childhood than “Can you hear the drums Fernando?” ❤️
@@ongoldenponds Aww...thank you so much for the reply! Than in itself (watching them drive past) would have been such a thrill. We didnlt move to Melbourne until 1980. We were living about 500km away at the time, but still they captured the hearts and minds of everyone right across the country. I'm glad they give you good memories. Alas, I feel a bit old and grey now, Fernando!! :)
I dont think there is a more 100% relatable song to anyone who's ever been in a serious relationship than "The Winner Takes It All".. COmpletely relevant and profoundly understood.
It was only the media that did not like ABBA..in the 70s...all musician's appreciated what they were doing..even the Punk bands, admitted to liking ABBA...the Remones took one of there tracks and pretty much used it as one of there own..there music will always be timeless. 👍💯🤘🎤🎸🎧❤
I pray for one last Album before they retire. I have been waiting 40 years and I know that, by no chance, there will be another 40. They still have it in them, and I hope they do it.
ABBA's music is real. It reflects the human condition. They make us laugh, dance with joy and cry. It's both happy and nostalgic and invites us to sing along. Abracadabra - the ABBA 4 were pure magic together. May their music last forever.
Je n'oublierai jamais ce groupe sorti de Suède pour dominer la chanson et conquérir les coeurs,j'aime le quatuor avec lequel je vivrai des moments inoubliables. Merci Agnetha,Bjorn,Benny et Anni-Frid ❤❤🎉🎉❤❤🎉🎉
I loved ABBA from the first time I saw them on Australian TV in 1975. Mamma Mia... had me buying my first album at 12 years old. ABBA is the most significant band in my life. I saw them and waved to them on their arrival at the Melbourne Town Hall in 1977. My parents did not buy my a ticket to their concert, so I went anyway and climbed the fence to catch a glimps. I almost had an out-of-body experience! Knowing they had travelled all the way from Sweden, to make dreams come true. I have loved their music, con erts and movies. Last year I travelled to London to see Voyage. I was like a child again and lined up 2 hours before the show. I made sure I was at the front and centre of the stage. When the concert started I was spell-bound as I knew I would be. I could not differentiate the line between fantasy and reality. I smiled, laughed and cried with joy. I am returning to London this September and have booked 4 shows. ABBA has been and continues to be my joy. My life is enriched because of them. Sending love from Melbourne Australia. If any member of ABBA reads my text, know this... I am so grateful to be here on Earth in your time. XXXX
It's the best music out there. No auto tune like most of the bands/singers nowadays. Abba is the greatest band with music and vocals you can't replicate.
Z B Funny you would mention other singers use of auto tune. Of all young singer's their reactors claim non of them use auto tune. It leads me to believe they're all excellent or some are not very truthful. Is there a way to know the diff?
My mama brought back an ABBA album from Germany in the early 70s. I loved it! When albums were available for purchase in the USA, those were purchased too! Schlager, Pop-Rock, Disco, etc. Whatever you want to call their music, I loved it then, and I love it today!
Most of the clubs I've been to always play Gimme Gimme Gimme! And me and many others scream the lyrics to it and jump up and down! That shows how many generations this incredible band has touched!
Their songs live forever.. It brings my childhood.. I been on their museum in Stockholm and it it raised my skin hair And I been singing their songs for weeks. Love ABBA.
ABBA is the combination of outstanding music and phenomenal voices of Agneta and Frida who made songs for the most impossible to perform for vast majority of today's singers.
ABBA, is my all time favorite even I'm already 60.y.o my love for them will never changed I'm also happy that they are still alive & kicking - thank GOD for that GOD bless ABBA
At my son graduation dinner all the parents were invited and the DJ was playing crap and none of the adults we’re dancing.I asked my son to go up to the DJ and say play some ABBA for the Mummies first song that came on all the parents were up on the dance floor and our 1990s kids loved it.
I can totally understand that ABBA really want to call it quits now after having release another album after 50 years. But I cannot help but feel a little sad when I see what an amazing talent would be wasted if this really was the end of the group. Until last year we didn’t know whether ABBA could still deliver after all these years. Now we know, they can. The ladies still have amazing voices, the song writing is still great. I really hope there will be another song or two to be released in the next years. A song for charity would be a nice thing to do. Until then I wish all four of them as much health and happiness as there is ins the world. So many great artists have died already, Prince, Michael Jackson, Olivia Newton-John, George Michael. I cannot bear to think that one day, ABBA won’t be here anymore.
I am 65 years old. I have been a big ABBA fan since 1973. I was at their concert in Copenhagen november 1974. And I was in London in 2022 to the ABBATARS
Thank you so much for this nice video. I think that the success of ABBA is: 1. The personalities of all of the ABBA members; Agnetha, Anni-Frid, Björn and Benny are all very authentically humble, nice, honest, down to earth and decent people. Swedish qualities. 2. Benny`s ability to compose catchy, wonderful and epic music, inspired in part from the Swedish folk music (I honestly believe that he is our time`s Mozart), Björn`s ability to create very deep and wise texts, that we all can relate to. Together the to Bs create this Happy-pain that ABBA is famous for. In my opinion, this mixture is what life is all about: the dance between those good times and those throbbing times. 3. Agnetha and Anni-Frid`s ability to harmonise their beautiful and powerful voices together. Ps. Look at the lyrics on the titles “He is your brother”, “I am a marionette” and “The Piper”. Contemplate on the message… Ds. Best regards from Lena in Norway
I have always loved ABBA! My brother and sister used to make fun of me because I loved Abba so much and they thought it wasn’t cool but I did not care! I still do not care, I’m 60 years old and I still love Abba! I just wish so badly that I could see them or meet them !! To meet them and see them sing , would be a dream come true!!But I am in Massachusetts USA so I couldn’t even see them in concert in London in there special concert in 2020 or 22.❤❤❤
ABBA's the perfect pop group in all aspect . The biggest pop group of all times in the world . A very special pop group and music ever , very good songs and very beautiful angelic voices . Pure beauty , talent , inspiration and pop perfection . I love ABBA forever !!! My all time number # 1 and favourite pop group since my childhood years in the 70's until today . Thank Sweden , my favourite country . 🇸🇪 💎ABBA💎🎵🎶🎵🎶🎼🎼🎼💙📱🎧😎👍 ABBA's the royalty of the world pop music .
Ik denk dat er nooit meer een muziekband komt die muziek zo mooi maakt dat het zoveel harten raakt als dat ABBA heeft gedaan......Mijn leven hebben zij verrijkt met hun zang en muziek, ik ben fan vanaf 1973 toen zij met hun song Ring Ring kwamen en al helemaal met Waterloo in 1974....ik was verkocht en nu ben ik nog steeds fan, heerlijke muziek vol emotie en kan er bij wegdromen, kan ook verdrietig raken met de muziek die rond hun scheidingen zijn geschreven....ze zitten echt in mijn hart, de muziek maar ook ABBA als personen zelf
That certainly was a very nice watch, I feel soooo fortunate to have grown up in the '70's when the music was sooooo fricking GOOD and ABBA such a BIG part of the scene here in Canada, they certainly had gotten immense radio play! I recall one time as I pushed the buttons on the radio in the truck I was sitting, 4 out of 5 stations were playing ABBA !! 😍🤗
Four beautiful, talented and creative stars, yet humble , nice and caring that never needed, drugs, scandals, nor crazy behavior to be famous, they were really extraordinary performers not only in recordings, but live too. whose songs were full of very caring and warm messages, both in joy as in sorrow. NO other group has ever had all these outstanding features. Lovely people above all
My mum used to play ABBA, and so did my Extended family, to great enjoyment during family reunions in Kenya when I was likkle. In my teens I rediscovered them thanks to Pandora and Spotify 😀
Yeah， I think of my youth whenever I hear the songs. and I repeat listening to them once in a while. it makes me happy and nostalgic. it surprises me that young people like ABBA as I do.
I’ve of course been an ABBA fan all along, but I was amazed how my grandkids (6 and 4) in Chicago caught on to their music when I introduced them to it a couple of years ago.The older one’s favorite is Super Trouper while the younger one’s is Money Money Money! Now it is a regular part of our routine to listen to ABBA every week when we meet!
I just love watching ABBA members enjoy what they were doing. Each of them did their part unique in a mastery way. I can tell they were happy doing what they did. They have made us happy too. I'm grateful. 😊❤
...being an ABBA fan since 1974 I'm delighted to have found this video..some new photos i haven't come across before, but most importantly, to find someone who can fully interpretat what we all struggle to put into words...why do people love ABBA?...08.42mins you have the perfect answer!....i loved this program SO MUCH ! ...thank you. 🎶
In 70s when I was in college I start lissining àppa.in2023 I still listen.soulful songs that penratratas our heart.nobody can beat Abba.anbody agree? I love abba
It is so accurate, "ABBA is about memories". I still cry listening and singing to Super Trouper because it brings me back to my childhood driving with my parents with that song (and other ABBA songs) being played.
I’ve spent my first 21 years living in my home country Haiti, and ABBA is by far the most played international band in the radio while ironically nobody knows their name, but their music is Timeless
I don't think we've realized how much of a miracle it was to see ABBA return for one more album after 40 years. In this period, any of them could have died or lost their music abilities, but not only they were still alive and well, they were still pretty solid in their talents and they gave us ten more amazing songs that fit perfectly into their long list of genial works.

ABBA songs have that strange but sweet blend of the melancholy and joy. That’s what makes their songs so unique and appealing.
Long live there music and the words you can here and no big loud mumbling sound of boom bom. Mike

I recently started cataloguing my record collection, I have three abba albums and I can only imagine the magic of placing a needle on the record and listening to those lyrics along the world for the first time.

"Yuletide", like Christmas carols, they can be happy and melancholic sometimes. Little Drummer Boy and Rudolph the Red nosed reindeer
Absolutely
They are Pop Royalty who have never lost their throne ❤️
You conjured up their great song, the king has lost his crown from the Voulez-Vous album
No matter what those critics (and some awful manipulators such as R. Christgau) had said at the time.Future proved F-ABBA are survivors and there's still no body to touch them in their field.Absolutetly nobody!Now they are evergreen, up in their thrones and deep in my heart forever.
They're definitely the royal band of pop in my book.

I agree, the third voice is magical
SEU I agree with the magic part of your comment. But I can't imagine ABBA without the 4 of them together.
Yes! It's called the " Third Voice" These Beautiful Gals were simply Mega Talented!! 👍💖💖
Agnetha and Frida are my sweet angels. Noone can bring sunshine to my day like Abba; my cares become a distant memory.
Now, without watching the video...
Why do we all love ABBA?
Because we're not deaf!
Greetings from a metalhead.
In Polish there is a (supportive) saying. "...let's give him vodka!"
That is to You, Mihovil!
I think that is the best quote as to their greatness that I've seen in countless thousands of comments.
I am immensely grateful to ABBA and their fantastic music
These four talented and humble Swedes shone in the Anglo-Saxon world and even had great success in Spanish-speaking countries without giving up their Swedish idiosyncrasy and culture:
lived in Sweden
recorded in Sweden
filmed in Sweden
with musicians from Sweden
and in a surprising and unprecedented unexpected event, the four returned together to the recording studio after 35 years
and despite the covid 19 pandemic they went ahead and finished a new album in 2021 (which they couldn't do in 1982/1983)
and inaugurated a new ABBA Arena stadium with the start of new ABBA Voyage concerts
the only thing that I would ask of ABBA, myself and their many fans, is that they encourage themselves to finish the production and edit the songs that they saved and that are excellent, like
"just like that"
Also, my eternal gratitude to
Agnetha Benny Björn A. Frida
the Fabs Four from Sweden
hey buddy
I agree. At least from my family in Argentina (and my whole town I would say), no one has ever heard ABBA in Swedish or English. Their decision to record in Spanish made their career a huge success in Latin America, and we took it as a part of our culture.

There is no ‘anglosaxon” world. You’re referring to English speaking countries, which is not the same. Also ABBA are global stars beyond US/UK.
If I may add in my opinion no other pop group in history will ever sound like ABBA, they are still unique two beautiful women with absolutely stunning vocals and two handsome men who knew what they were and still are doing .I feel very privileged to have been an ABBA fan all my life they deserve all the accolades that are bestowed upon them .

what's weird about Abba is that it transcends generations and genre... we all recognise the song's universal brilliance.
ABBA remain undefeated! One of the most influential music groups from the 20th century to the present!
Why we love Abba?Because they were 4 beautiful people who made beautiful music and made people feel even more beautiful.That simply explained but so hard to find another Abba.
The one thing in my life that has always been the most consistent: My Love for ABBA. My world has been a better place with you in it. Thank-you ABBA.
Amen!
So true! The world is a better place with ABBA.
Nice take on the ABBA story
I loved ABBA! Still do!!! I was a teen through those very BEST years, and their songs were a part of me. ❤❤❤🥰🥰🥰
The first ABBA song I ever heard was "SOS" in 1975 and I was hooked on ABBA. ABBA are unique in pop music.
I know exactly where I was standing the first time I heard ABBA .. SOS .. I'd never heard of them .. Had no idea what they looked like .. BUT I WAS HOOKED FROM THAT MOMENT .. I cannot tell you how much joy they have brought me the last nearing 50 years .. I am "THANKFUL FOR THE MUSIC" .. TgT
I suppose you were hooked on a feeling.
Same to me! Back in 2012 (I was 18) that time

the world will talk about ABBA the way they talk about Beethoven, Bach, Mozart, etc, contributors to the better being of human kind.
Their songs live forever.. It brings my childhood.. I been on their museum in Stockholm and it it raised my skin hair And I been singing their songs for weeks. Love ABBA.
in a nutshell, the song writing and musicianship is excellent.
ABBA is the combination of outstanding music and phenomenal voices of Agneta and Frida who made songs for the most impossible to perform for vast majority of today's singers.
I adore ABBA.
There music is timeless, emotional, great music , not sad.
Because they are the best, the absolute BEST❤️❤️❤️
ABBA, is my all time favorite even I'm already 60.y.o my love for them will never changed I'm also happy that they are still alive & kicking - thank GOD for that GOD bless ABBA
LatinAmerican loves ABBA
yeah!
They are the greatest group ever!
At my son graduation dinner all the parents were invited and the DJ was playing crap and none of the adults we’re dancing.I asked my son to go up to the DJ and say play some ABBA for the Mummies first song that came on all the parents were up on the dance floor and our 1990s kids loved it.
Thank you very much for sharing your experience with us. Sending you all the best
Wow ! Thanks por this documental! I am 59 and Abba was there for me always !
One of my favorite bands. A band ahead of their time. Love you Agnetha ❤.
I can totally understand that ABBA really want to call it quits now after having release another album after 50 years. But I cannot help but feel a little sad when I see what an amazing talent would be wasted if this really was the end of the group. Until last year we didn’t know whether ABBA could still deliver after all these years. Now we know, they can. The ladies still have amazing voices, the song writing is still great. I really hope there will be another song or two to be released in the next years. A song for charity would be a nice thing to do. Until then I wish all four of them as much health and happiness as there is ins the world. So many great artists have died already, Prince, Michael Jackson, Olivia Newton-John, George Michael. I cannot bear to think that one day, ABBA won’t be here anymore.
I am 65 years old. I have been a big ABBA fan since 1973. I was at their concert in Copenhagen november 1974. And I was in London in 2022 to the ABBATARS
“Never Say Never” (Frida Radio 2 November 2021). Who knows, maybe four songs, for the next and 10th studio album are already in the can! 🎉
I'm from El Salvador and I really love ABBA. I think their is happy and sad at the same time.
I still keep my Abba records.
I join the hundreds of millions when I say, I love ABBA! I roller skated to their music in the '70's and have loved them since.
Thank you so much for this nice video.
I think that the success of ABBA is:
1. The personalities of all of the ABBA members; Agnetha, Anni-Frid, Björn and Benny are all very authentically humble, nice, honest, down to earth and decent people. Swedish qualities.
2. Benny`s ability to compose catchy, wonderful and epic music, inspired in part from the Swedish folk music (I honestly believe that he is our time`s Mozart), Björn`s ability to create very deep and wise texts, that we all can relate to. Together the to Bs create this Happy-pain that ABBA is famous for. In my opinion, this mixture is what life is all about: the dance between those good times and those throbbing times.
3. Agnetha and Anni-Frid`s ability to harmonise their beautiful and powerful voices together.
Ps. Look at the lyrics on the titles “He is your brother”, “I am a marionette” and “The Piper”. Contemplate on the message… Ds.
Best regards from Lena in Norway
Keep us entertaining and inspiring with their marvellous music.
Releasing the 2 unfinished songs as a single will be great.
And “Just Like That”.
I have always loved ABBA! My brother and sister used to make fun of me because I loved Abba so much and they thought it wasn’t cool but I did not care! I still do not care, I’m 60 years old and I still love Abba! I just wish so badly that I could see them or meet them !! To meet them and see them sing , would be a dream come true!!But I am in Massachusetts USA so I couldn’t even see them in concert in London in there special concert in 2020 or 22.❤❤❤
Thanks for sharing your thoughts and experiences. We hope that one day you'll be able to see them!

💎ABBA💎🎵🎶🎵🎶🎼🎼🎼💙📱🎧😎👍
ABBA's the royalty of the world pop music .
Ik denk dat er nooit meer een muziekband komt die muziek zo mooi maakt dat het zoveel harten raakt als dat ABBA heeft gedaan......Mijn leven hebben zij verrijkt met hun zang en muziek, ik ben fan vanaf 1973 toen zij met hun song Ring Ring kwamen en al helemaal met Waterloo in 1974....ik was verkocht en nu ben ik nog steeds fan, heerlijke muziek vol emotie en kan er bij wegdromen, kan ook verdrietig raken met de muziek die rond hun scheidingen zijn geschreven....ze zitten echt in mijn hart, de muziek maar ook ABBA als personen zelf
That certainly was a very nice watch, I feel soooo fortunate to have grown up in the '70's when the music was sooooo fricking GOOD and ABBA such a BIG part of the scene here in Canada, they certainly had gotten immense radio play! I recall one time as I pushed the buttons on the radio in the truck I was sitting, 4 out of 5 stations were playing ABBA !! 😍🤗
Four beautiful, talented and creative stars, yet humble , nice and caring that never needed, drugs, scandals, nor crazy behavior to be famous, they were really extraordinary performers not only in recordings, but live too. whose songs were full of very caring and warm messages, both in joy as in sorrow. NO other group has ever had all these outstanding features. Lovely people above all
My mum used to play ABBA, and so did my Extended family, to great enjoyment during family reunions in Kenya when I was likkle. In my teens I rediscovered them thanks to Pandora and Spotify 😀
We all LOVE ABBA!
A good band with catchy tunes. Thanks.
Yeah， I think of my youth whenever I hear the songs. and I repeat listening to them once in a while. it makes me happy and nostalgic. it surprises me that young people like ABBA as I do.
Amamos ABBA, Saludos desde Venezuela
I grew up with ABBA’s songs - LOVE THEM!!!!! Decent people and beautiful tunes!
Love this! Thank you!
I dont care what others people said. For me they are genius!!!!! Best voices ever!!!!!
And I have to add; Björn's lyrics have gotten better and better. Masterful on the Voyage album.
ABBA is magical!! I love them. Really. Their songs are my remedy. Much love from the Philippines 🇵🇭 ❤
But there are also great singers in 🇵🇭, too, right?
ABBA always in moderately mood... and moderately appearances... just feel good out of it.
I’ve of course been an ABBA fan all along, but I was amazed how my grandkids (6 and 4) in Chicago caught on to their music when I introduced them to it a couple of years ago.The older one’s favorite is Super Trouper while the younger one’s is Money Money Money! Now it is a regular part of our routine to listen to ABBA every week when we meet!
Such a nice routine, thanks for sharing!! 🎵
Argentina loves ABBA!! Latin America loves ABBA!!
From Eurovision to TikTok, ABBA is still well-loved
I just love watching ABBA members enjoy what they were doing. Each of them did their part unique in a mastery way. I can tell they were happy doing what they did. They have made us happy too. I'm grateful. 😊❤
...being an ABBA fan since 1974 I'm delighted to have found this video..some new photos i haven't come across before, but most importantly, to find someone who can fully interpretat what we all struggle to put into words...why do people love ABBA?...08.42mins you have the perfect answer!....i loved this program SO MUCH ! ...thank you. 🎶
ABBA is the greatest band that ever existed, so many bands mention them as influence and in so many different genres.
We need another album, please!

Thank you very much for sharing your personal experience with us. Sending you all the best
It is so accurate, "ABBA is about memories". I still cry listening and singing to Super Trouper because it brings me back to my childhood driving with my parents with that song (and other ABBA songs) being played.
They make me cry. With joy.
I love Abba, thanks for all the Joy a feel all the time I listen one of your songs
the 70´s were beautiful... everything was new!!!! And from the cold of Sweden came Abba
”This isn’t where It ends” 🎶 ”This isn’t where It ends” 🎶 🙌 💛💙💛💙
I’ve spent my first 21 years living in my home country Haiti, and ABBA is by far the most played international band in the radio while ironically nobody knows their name, but their music is Timeless
My mum took me to see ABBA when I was about 13 years old at the SCG. It rained all night but they still played the show.
So I say thank you for the program...
Yes, we all love ABBA. I´m from Uruguay and have heard of them since I was little. My dad used to pley their cassettes on the car.
Jag älskar ABBA så mycket.
Since as I was child I love you...!!!
We always loved ABBA in Australia I think as country we loved them the most.
