Two of the most gorgeous woman to ever walk the earth. Having the most beautiful voices ever recorded Two of the most awesomely talented guys. It's like a magical miracle that we'll never experience in music again.
I don’t think it will ever happen again. There was just too many pieces that just fell into place. We are so fortunate that it even happened. Absolutely love all their songs, every song is great.
This is a fabulous Abba album.Inside out.From the azure-ish/silvery -blue cover to every single circle the needle spins on the vynil of the turntable lol.
Another hidden Gem by ABBA. As you said, nobody has their sound, and they keep pushing the envelope. I am so glad you've discovered (what I consider) the greatest group of all time. I LOVE your channel!!!!
It would be really interesting to watch a reaction to Hey, Hey, Helen. Without giving anything away, I think it will be an unexpected surprise. Very different and yet very much ABBA.
Michael Tretow is a vital part of making the specific ABBA sound. One of the worlds best engineers, that uses all possible tricks, like vocal doubling with the second part slightly detuned, just to give a fuller sound. Amazing guy, and a legend in Swedish music
@@timradde4328 It may be that you did not recall "The Day Before You Came" because it was a later single - and not on one of their studio albums. It was released after "The Visitors" (1981) album and on a compilation album "The Singles - The First Ten Years" (1982). Another good, later single was "Under Attack" which I believe was their last released song prior to the group's break-up in 1982.
Epic! Angeleyes was another masterpiece from the stellar album Voulez Vous. The opening song is “As Good As New.” If you play that one, you will be speechless. When you think ABBA cannot improve upon what you have already heard, you hear songs from the Voulez Vous album and you think- how is this even possible! Their follow up album Super Trooper has a beautiful song called “Andante Andanda.” ABBA song reviews could even be its own UA-cam channel. I wouldn’t be surprised if graduate students have studied the group for their thesis.
I first heard 'Angeleyes' by ABBA when it came out in the summer of '79. I was a young man, and the song was a breath of fresh air-a catchy pop tune with an intriguing message. The song is a warning to women about a man with a deceptive nature, luring them in with his innocent gaze, but in reality, he's a player. Benny Andersson and Björn Ulvaeus from ABBA wrote this song, and it's interesting how they flipped the script, empowering women to be cautious of such men. It's a fun, upbeat song with a subtle yet powerful message. Over the years, 'Angeleyes' has remained a favorite for many, and it's great to see it finding new life on TikTok, showing that ABBA's music truly transcends generations.
ABBA'S music is timeless and magical. Watch "the day before you came", "honey, honey", "ring, ring", and so on. Their music is full of musical "pearls".
Jay and Amber, it’s been a pleasure and a privilege to watch your musical journey and the growth in your knowledge of all the fabulous artists and songs that so many of us grew up on. It’s funny now to go back to the brick wall episodes and see how green you really were and to see how far you’ve come now ✌️
I remember watching in those early days before Amber even came on the channel & how much musically they have grown & opened up. (Their looks & even demeanors have even changed since then!) It IS wonderful to witness - & fun to go back & re-watch those early episodes. I love in some of the early episodes where J. may look at a performer or group ie. the Rolling Stones (I don't remember if this was one or U2 etc.) & say that he/they had never heard of them & are they a one hit wonder. I bet they would be embarrassed if they were made to witness those early episodes on camera - but they ARE from a completely different generation & it is so good to see how they HAVE LEARNED so much about all of our classic music (or let's face it - music - as I don't characterise talking to a beat with no or next to no instrumentation as music [rap "music"] - as J. was solely used to .) There are so many good & bad things about the internet, but one of the good things is the chance for young people to have these music reaction channels & learn what music used to be & about those songs & groups we used to know so well. Take care J. & Amber & continue to enjoy & learn. There is STILL so much out there that you haven't even touched on yet that were big (groups & even international styles of music that you haven't gotten to - outside of ABBA & some Canadian, Australian, UK stuff.) We have MUCH MORE for you to discover & more music from bands you haven't heard enough to solidify their sounds in your minds yet. It will still take time - but we are here for your continuing journey. By the way Amber, you two now ARE - Officially - part of "the cool kids" - (while many of your generation are still left behind - for now.)
Perhaps, but it was a face of the hit "Voulez-vous " and moreover their hits Europe follow one another at an almost frenetic pace, they didn't know which titles to put forward. But there are tracks that are not in their "Gold" compilation for this reason, which are nevertheless excellent, too.
One of my fav ABBA song, an excellent piece of work, loved it and thanks for your reaction. You guys should consider reacting to The Visitors, Lay All Your Love On Me, Eagle, Name of the Game and Move On
"Angeleyes" (1979) is a good disco-style song (7pts), w ithin album disco-style "Voulez Vous" (with the exception of the ballads "Chiquitita" and "I have a dream") that ABBA recorded following the influences of disco music in North America with Bee Gees hits It was together, with "Voulez Vous" as double A-side, the third single from said album, it reached #3 in UK In this album I prefer other songs of that style: "As good as new" (the opening track) the tittle track, "Voulez Vous" ore one special that come soon "If it wasn''t for the nights" but these tuned is loved for the fans and was trendiing in Tik Tok a year ago, with a lot of streaming in Spotify Unfortunaly it haven't a official video or TV perfomanece I see you in next ABBA vídeo My best regards from Buenos Aires Argentina 🇦🇷 South America
@eduardooscar309 : Angeleyes didn't get a video because as you pointed out it was a double A side, so they made a video of the second A song Voulez Vous for the release which was shown on television at the time, however, at least in the UK Angeleyes got played on the radio more so both songs got exposure in different formats. Pity though no video.
Jay and Amber, Angeleyes was the flip side of Voulez Vous. Hoping you can listen to my two favorite ABBA tunes: Lay All Your Love On Me and The Visitors. You’ll be amazed by how their sound progressed

Benny and Bjorn produced ABBA themselves all through the band's career. Remember ABBA was the second act of the careers of the members, who were all successful in Sweden before ABBA, so the guys had plenty of studio experience from day one. But their legendary sound engineer Michael B Tretow must also be mentioned. He both innovated recording techniques himself and figured out the secret tricks of the big producers in L.A., New York and London. He took ABBA to the next level in terms of sound. They could hardly have made it without him. And unlike a lot of contemporary stuff it still holds up. Also, a shout out to the trusted group of session musicians who played on those albums. They contributed greatly to those classics. (Although Benny's keyboard work is typically very prominent).
You forgot to mention Stig «Stikkan» Anderson, who owned Polar Music and produced most of ABBA's mucic. The band members consider him the fifth ABBA, because he had a major influence on their final products...
Angel Eyes is off the Voulez-Vous album from 1979. The album also contains one of Jay & Amber's favorite ABBA songs, Chuiqitita. You'll also find Does Your Mother Know on this collection.
...neither external backing vocalists.They had an A class unique super-tool in their hands and hearts.Frida's and Agnetha's non-autotuned vocal blending.
@@alexioverdo5225 True.Except of only 2 songs('I have a Dream' and the Xmas ditty 'Little things')yet those had a kids choir matching the specific themes.
@@alexioverdo5225 They used backing vocalist on stage though, where Agnetha and Frida couldn't do it all. (But it was their friends, rather than "external" or "outside".)
@@herrbonk3635Yes i know. I wasn't reffering to touring but studio recordings.Personally i prefer their '77 choir line up with the 3 girls.Amazing vocal support.
I forget about this one! Abba truly has no bad songs! And really so happy Jay and Amber to know how much you both appreciate all music, any genre, etc. It definitely opens your world up to so much! Jay, now you need to share all those songs that Amber missed early on with her!!! There were many great ones ... One of my faves Wild Cherry's Play That Funky Music! Thank you both for bringing back memories for me and opening my eyes to some songs as well!! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
There's a great cover version by a band called The Czars, led by singer John Grant. That acoustic version makes you pay more attention to the lyrics, which is quite melancholic actually.
John Grant is wonderful! His version and voice brought chills up my spine. Later, I attended a live performance. I was disappointed that he did not sing Angeleyes. Nonetheless, I absolutely enjoyed his performance. I even ran into some friends of mine.
@@Vates104 I didn't know much about him back then, so when he changed the lyrics to "and I saw you together with a young BOY" and kept the part of "it's a game he likes to play", I was like, hmmm, that's interesting... 😉😉😉
Been waiting for you get to this one ! .. It's easily in my Top 10 ABBA songs, but it is criminally under-exposed to the general listening public .. It's a melodic masterpiece !
I remember Abba being played around our house in the 70's courtesy of my sister while I was getting so heavily into The Beatles, always amazing music in our house as I was a kid growing up. Love both bands so much.
Somebody I know said, "There's only one band sounds like ABBA, and that's ABBA." You guys nailed it. Their sound is so unique, their music so well-layered and produced, their voices so angelic. They're a once-in-a-lifetime group.
Thanks for reacting to Angeleyes, one of my favorites tracks off the Voulez Vous album. Another one to react to is As Good As New from the same album. Also, please react to Lay All Your Love On Me off the SuperTrouper album.
Thank you, my favourite Abba song, this one holds so many memories for me. Hearing this blasting out from the discos along the promenade during the hot summer nights of 1979.
Wow friends thank you so much...ABBA put on the radio this song with another hit called "Voulez -Vous" at the same time, maybe their best disco hit ever... Recommend you react to that melodie a lot....
Thank you. ABBA is my all time favourite band, but to see your T-shirt with Strawberry Fields on it was so amazing. I am from Liverpool and that place is only a short distance from me. I love your videos. Thank you
I love the Voulez-Vous album! It's my favorite. You should give all those songs a shot: "If It Wasn't For the Night," "Lovelight," "Kisses of Fire," "Lovers (Live A Little Longer)," "I Have A Dream," and all the others that you haven't heard yet.
Benny and Bjorn produced their own music. This is one of their underrated songs and also a good example of the "One Voice" sound (Abba fans know about this) of Abba when the two ladies sing together in unison. Have been an Abba fan since 1976. Bjorn is pronounced Bee....yorn and Agnetha is pronounced Ang...yeta.
You guys do the best reaction videos on UA-cam in my humble opinion because you genuinely seem to love the music and are knowledgeable about it. It’s very refreshing and we appreciate you for it, so many thanks. I’m sure others have already suggested it but I’m going to add my vote. You must, must, must listen to Thank You For The Music by Abba. It really is one of their best and most iconic songs and as the title suggests, it’s about the pure love of music for music’s sake. You will love it, I know you will..
You asked "who produced their stuff" - Björn Ulvaeus and Benny Andersson produced much of Abba's music themselves, often jointly with music producer Michael Tretow.
everyone is finally realizing just what a difference he made on Abba's albums. (including me) But anything Abba does together is like manna from heaven.
Hi Guys greetings from England 🇬🇧 you really need to check out The Abba Song "THE DAY BEFORE YOU CAME" this was one of ABBA"S final songs and its such a hauntingly,Atmospheric and Beautiful song from Agnetha with such a great video as well its so unlike other Abba songs.
50 years will pass and people will continue to be surprised by ABBA's music, They are voices of ANGELS ❤❤❤
My Favorite ABBA Song....❤
No kidding, soooo many ABBA songs are just so exhilarating !!
It's already been 50 years in 2024. They exploded onto the Music Industry in 1974 with "Waterloo".
This is one of my favourite ABBA songs. So underrated.
Yep, mine too.
Two of the most gorgeous woman to ever walk the earth. Having the most beautiful voices ever recorded Two of the most awesomely talented guys. It's like a magical miracle that we'll never experience in music again.
Never say never.
@@Ezekielepharcelis true 👍🏻 but I don't think it will happen in my lifetime. 💙
There will never be anyone like ABBA very distinctive so talented ❤❤❤❤
I don’t think it will ever happen again. There was just too many pieces that just fell into place. We are so fortunate that it even happened. Absolutely love all their songs, every song is great.
Slipping through my fingers. Words never hit until I had my own kids ... so beautiful ❤ can't go wrong with ABBA ❤
I think they'd definitely love that one.
ABBA is ALWAYS wonderful!
A radiopresenter in my area in germany likes to say "a day without ABBA is possible but sensless" 😂
so true!
Wunderschön. 🇸🇪
True!!!!
Nice; i love that
Can we finally say we love the ABBA in the open. Those harmonies. 🎉
Some of us were happy too say that out loud 30 plus years ago!
@@richardhussey-cq2se True…but with a little more maturity.
The greatest ever pop group to grace us with their incredible musical talent, we will never see the likes of them again.
I used to listen to this whole album almost every day. Love ABBA
Its my preferred album tho …The Album runs it close with my two favourite abba songs Eagle and I Wonder
Me too. I remember when it was released and my Mom came home with the record. It's still at home.
This is a fabulous Abba album.Inside out.From the azure-ish/silvery -blue cover to every single circle the needle spins on the vynil of the turntable lol.
Yay! I'm always here for your ABBA reactions! "One Man, One Woman," and "Move On" are among their best, even though they weren't mainstream hits.
Both Majestic 'underated' deep cuts!
OMOW is great
45 years later, and this song is a timeless classic! Like most ABBA songs!
No auto tune those days!…just pure talent.
Another hidden Gem by ABBA. As you said, nobody has their sound, and they keep pushing the envelope. I am so glad you've discovered (what I consider) the greatest group of all time. I LOVE your channel!!!!
One of my favourite of all ABBA songs - so layered and complex. Those harmonies are perfection! Euphoric!
LOVE angeleyes, LOVE ABBA!!!! FOREVER.
ABBA rocks!
No ABBA Discos lol
Its hard to find a bad ABBA track. They are more than excellent. This is no ordinary band. 🇸🇪
Agree
Definitely one of their underrated songs. Another one is "If it wasn't for the night". You will love that song.
I LOVE that one!!!!
So many fav Abba songs: When I Kissed the Teacher; On and On; People Need Love; Hey, Hey, Helen; and Eagle (which is beautiful).
It would be really interesting to watch a reaction to Hey, Hey, Helen. Without giving anything away, I think it will be an unexpected surprise. Very different and yet very much ABBA.
@@michelemercier2286 Watch out and Rock me belongs in the same category
Awesome choices!!!!
@@martinhumbleGreat choices!!
One of my favourite Abba songs for sure. The way the beat builds up to the chorus, combined with the lyrics gives classic Motown vibes.
Michael Tretow is a vital part of making the specific ABBA sound. One of the worlds best engineers, that uses all possible tricks, like vocal doubling with the second part slightly detuned, just to give a fuller sound. Amazing guy, and a legend in Swedish music
The two women in abbas voices go so well together and unique as i havent heard any like them.
Each lady sounds great on her own, but when their voices join - that's what makes the ABBA sound unique. Fans call it the "third voice".
"As Good As New" is another amazing song from the same album Voulez Vous, my favorite ABBA album!
If It Wasn’t for the Nights is another amazing song from this album .love your reactions
‘Angel Eyes’ and ‘Take A Chance’ are my favorite ABBA songs.
My absolute favourite Abba song the harmonies are off the scale❤
OMG no one ever knows this one when I mention it! Thanks!
I remember this. I thought I knew all their songs. But had never heard "The day before you came". Don't know how. Love ABBA then and now.
All the songs on that album were excellent
@@timradde4328 It may be that you did not recall "The Day Before You Came" because it was a later single - and not on one of their studio albums.

Dancing Queen is a must!
How Dancing Queen hasn't been reacted to yet, I just don't get it! One of, if not their most iconic song.
Like an angel passing through my room is a solo by Freda. So beautiful
'' Thank You For The Music '' is well worth a listen !!
ABBA'S music is timeless and magical. Watch "the day before you came", "honey, honey", "ring, ring", and so on. Their music is full of musical "pearls".
Omg I love this!!!!!! More Abba please guys
Finally this one. My favorite Abba song. I just love this one.
One of my all time favorite ABBA songs.
One Night In Bangkok was also written by ABBA. Benny Anderson on the piano writes the music and Bjorn on the guitar writes the lyrics.

My favourite ABBA song!
Dancing Queen, Andante, Andante, are 2 must songs
Agree andante andante is amazing and really showcases Anni Frid’s vocals it’s one of my top 5 😊
@@dottzie33 it is their most underrated, most sensual song, and I completely agree where you placed it.
One almost too well known (a real staple at karaoke!); the other almost a buried treasure, and one of the sexiest songs ever written...
@@stevetournay6103 I agree but I call Andante, Andante the most sensual song of all time as opposed to sexiest. Regardless, it is brilliant
And TWTIA, OLS, and. And
How this song wasn't a huge hit in America is simply a crime by radio programmers.....super catchy and infectious.
Perhaps, but it was a face of the hit "Voulez-vous " and moreover their hits Europe follow one another at an almost frenetic pace, they didn't know which titles to put forward. But there are tracks that are not in their "Gold" compilation for this reason, which are nevertheless excellent, too.
"Dancing Queen" was ABBA's biggest hit!! I can't believe it wasn't the first ABBA song done. I can't wait for their reaction.
One of my fav ABBA song, an excellent piece of work, loved it and thanks for your reaction.
You guys should consider reacting to The Visitors, Lay All Your Love On Me, Eagle, Name of the Game and Move On
"Angeleyes" (1979)
is a good disco-style song (7pts), w
ithin album disco-style "Voulez Vous"
(with the exception of the ballads
"Chiquitita" and "I have a dream")
that ABBA recorded following the influences
of disco music in North America with Bee Gees hits
It was together, with "Voulez Vous" as double A-side,
the third single from said album, it reached #3 in UK
In this album I prefer other songs of that style:
"As good as new" (the opening track)
the tittle track, "Voulez Vous"
ore one special that come soon
"If it wasn''t for the nights"
but these tuned is loved for the fans
and was trendiing in Tik Tok a year ago,
with a lot of streaming in Spotify
Unfortunaly it haven't a official video or TV perfomanece
I see you in next ABBA vídeo

There's a great cover version by a band called The Czars, led by singer John Grant. That acoustic version makes you pay more attention to the lyrics, which is quite melancholic actually.
John Grant is wonderful! His version and voice brought chills up my spine. Later, I attended a live performance. I was disappointed that he did not sing Angeleyes. Nonetheless, I absolutely enjoyed his performance. I even ran into some friends of mine.
@@Vates104 I didn't know much about him back then, so when he changed the lyrics to "and I saw you together with a young BOY" and kept the part of "it's a game he likes to play", I was like, hmmm, that's interesting... 😉😉😉
This is a top 5 ABBA track, easily. The harmonies at play here are STUNNING. That chorus is solid gold.
ABBA😊❤👏👏👏👏👏👍
Hello, I have another ABBA song for you. It's from the Super Trouper album, and it's an upbeat disco-style song called "Lay All Your Love on Me."
Mama Mia and Mama Mia Here We Go Again!
Been waiting for you get to this one ! .. It's easily in my Top 10 ABBA songs, but it is criminally under-exposed to the general listening public .. It's a melodic masterpiece !
I remember Abba being played around our house in the 70's courtesy of my sister while I was getting so heavily into The Beatles, always amazing music in our house as I was a kid growing up. Love both bands so much.
That’s an excellent combo 👌
ABBA are top tier pop music there aren't many better.❤
After FIFTY [ 50 ] years there still have none been better .
🇸🇪
Somebody I know said, "There's only one band sounds like ABBA, and that's ABBA." You guys nailed it. Their sound is so unique, their music so well-layered and produced, their voices so angelic. They're a once-in-a-lifetime group.
❤️❤️❤️ Summer 1979
Hugely underrated track, in my opinion!
I just can't understand how anyone could not be caught up in this - just pure ABBA glory!
Thanks for reacting to Angeleyes, one of my favorites tracks off the Voulez Vous album. Another one to react to is As Good As New from the same album. Also, please react to Lay All Your Love On Me off the SuperTrouper album.
Eagle or My Love My Life must be next! 🤞🏻
I love "Eagle".
If it's Eagle it should definitly be the longer version. 👍
Im so glad you did this reaction as this was my suggestion. It’s the one song that is never mentioned but is one if their best!!! ❤
I love abba❤
Thank you, my favourite Abba song, this one holds so many memories for me. Hearing this blasting out from the discos along the promenade during the hot summer nights of 1979.
Wow friends thank you so much...ABBA put on the radio this song with another hit called "Voulez -Vous" at the same time, maybe their best disco hit ever... Recommend you react to that melodie a lot....
It's amazing how they managed to take an emotional song and marry it to an upbeat tune, it's one of their signatures in creating fantastic songs.
Watching all your ABBA reactions, i can´t believe you haven´t reacted to ´Thank you for the Music´...
ABBA - "Rock Me".
I know I've said this before Amber and Jay everyone can thank Australia for ABBAs success 🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺
You can't go wrong with ABBA, there's something for everyone.
Such a great song, such an under rated song. The harmonizing on it are outstanding a usual. Love this song.
Love it! Can’t go wrong with ABBA. Great harmonies.
Thank you. ABBA is my all time favourite band, but to see your T-shirt with Strawberry Fields on it was so amazing. I am from Liverpool and that place is only a short distance from me. I love your videos. Thank you
Abba music will naver die
I love the Voulez-Vous album! It's my favorite. You should give all those songs a shot: "If It Wasn't For the Night," "Lovelight," "Kisses of Fire," "Lovers (Live A Little Longer)," "I Have A Dream," and all the others that you haven't heard yet.
Music is the greatest history lesson that one can experience
Love Angeleyes -- it's one of my favorites for sure. Glad you picked this one!
Benny and Bjorn produced their own music. This is one of their underrated songs and also a good example of the "One Voice" sound (Abba fans know about this) of Abba when the two ladies sing together in unison. Have been an Abba fan since 1976. Bjorn is pronounced Bee....yorn and Agnetha is pronounced Ang...yeta.
🅰️🅱️🅱️🅰️ always on point👌!
Try...
Kisses of fire
If it wasn't for the nights
I Wonder (departure)
Love ❤️ from Chile 🇨🇱🤗👍
Dancing Queen! You’ve got to listen to that one. This was such a disco anthem back in the day.
Love love love ABBA
So glad you did Angeleyes. You have to do The Winner Takes It All for the next ABBA song
Already done three years ago.
You guys do the best reaction videos on UA-cam in my humble opinion because you genuinely seem to love the music and are knowledgeable about it. It’s very refreshing and we appreciate you for it, so many thanks.
I’m sure others have already suggested it but I’m going to add my vote. You must, must, must listen to Thank You For The Music by Abba. It really is one of their best and most iconic songs and as the title suggests, it’s about the pure love of music for music’s sake. You will love it, I know you will..
You asked "who produced their stuff" - Björn Ulvaeus and Benny Andersson produced much of Abba's music themselves, often jointly with music producer Michael Tretow.
Michael Tretow was the genius engineer on the ABBA albums.
Absolutely!MT a genius , a scient of sound conception.
Michael B Tretow if I may... :)
everyone is finally realizing just what a difference he made on Abba's albums. (including me) But anything Abba does together is like manna from heaven.
One of my favorites but less known. Thanks for the reaction.
One of my favourite ABBA songs
Proof of Heaven? Listen to ABBA ❤
I always get a big boost of happiness when I see a new video from you guys! And an ABBA reaction is just the cherry on top! ❤
Benny and Bjorn write and produce the ABBA catalogue.
ABBA are now performing on stage again, after Benny and Bjorn put together an Avatar gig.🎉
Hi Guys greetings from England 🇬🇧 you really need to check out The Abba Song "THE DAY BEFORE YOU CAME" this was one of ABBA"S final songs and its such a hauntingly,Atmospheric and Beautiful song from Agnetha with such a great video as well its so unlike other Abba songs.
