- YNGWIE MALMSTEEN - Gimmie Gimmie Gimmie (ABBA Cover) | REACTON
The legend Yngwie, with the guitar, has made a cover of my favourite ABBA song, Gimmie Gimmie Gimmie, and I needed to hear it!
I honestly think this cover started out strong and really good, but I do believe it fell on the finish line, because there was way to much guitar picking, and I don't personally believe that fit well into the song. But that is just MY opinion.

SWEDEN is a place with treasure of musicians . like tommy johansson , yngwie malmsteen , europe
It really is! 😍🙏🏻🇸🇪

GivenToe is one of my favourite youtubers. His videos always make me smile. Love you man.
That means the world to me ❤️🙏🏻🙏🏻😁
He makes me smile too, for sure 💖
Wow!!! I requested this one, don’t know if it was my wish or not - but still what I wanted. I did see it a year later 😎😀. Amazing reaction as allways, we need a longer guitar solo tack!🤘😎🤘🇸🇪
😁😁😁😁
This is the second greatest heavy metal cover of all time (first is W.A.S.P.’s Somebody To Love.) While Yngwie sings on his later material, the vocalist here is the incredible Mark Boals.
dream on with Great Dio ( I love WASP Somebody to love version)
Saw your slade video love your reaction to it so checking out some of your others. Greetings from idahofalls ID USA 🤘❤🔥
Thank you! So glad to hear it! 😁
Maybe his best metal cover.. absolutely energic metal! \m/ Malmsteen & Boals together they are relentlessss! with 2 solos! ohh man!.. the rhythm section sound powerful!
Let's be clear about one thing: INCREDIBLE SOLOING!!!
There's a heavy metal band called Ghost that does a cover of I'm A Marionette.
You as an ABBA fan, know better than anyone whether a Cover is Good or Not. But if it's a
WOW 😃👍🏼
he gets a
Compliment👌
This one was really Mega Cool.
Mighty beautiful song Jesus, when you hear this you Reverberate right away.... AWESOME.
I 💗 love 💗 ABBA 💗
Thank you...
And wish you the BEST 🍀🐞
Glad you enjoyed it! 😁😁😁🙏🏻🔥
I Saw him at Skogsröjet a couple of years ago. And never again, i leave it with that
😂😂😅😅Never seen him live, nor have I heard many songs, but I believe you!
ABBAMAN....never knew he had done a cover of this song.if you notice he changed the title singing gimme a love after midnight omitting the word MAN. which if he had left in would make him seem like he wants a man after midnight. it wasnt a bad cover but during the song it ceased to be an abba cover and the rest was his guitar plaing and solos.. you should check out uk's duo erasure. back in the day the also covered gimme.
Yeah I noticed he changed "man". Kinda of cheesy to be honest. A song is a song and you don't change the lyrics. The entire meaning of the song kind of dissapears changing "man" into "love". Gimmie A LOVE? What is "a love?" LOL.
Yngwie is a special individual in guitar history. That being said, he does sometimes over-use arpeggios and sweep picking. Arpeggios are good as part of a guitar solo but should not replace a guitar solo. I too was a bit bored by the end. I wanted to like it more than I did.
Indeed he is. I know his name is legendary, this was probably not his strongest performance 😊 I agree!
As yngwie says, More is more!
ABBA is ABBA, but I love this. I always like when the style changes and this one is quite different. In my opinion, this is really, really good. Another thought - you should have put something like "A mystery song" in the title, so we would be surprised as you draw the song. Either way, I think it was a great idea to pick a song this way.
Glad you enjoyed it 😁 Yeah I wanted to do that, but I felt I would have to change the title afterwards, cause otherwise new people wont find my reaction video cause there are no words to search for 😩
It would be so much fun to disagree with you and have a massive back-and-forth argument in the comments about this cover... but, hmmmm... I'm with you. I think the solos, although technically astounding (fast), don't serve the song, they simply serve to draw attention to their own virtuosity... But I'm thankful for them, because I laughed all the way through your reaction of the final 2 minutes. And then again as you calmly tore the paper. 😆😆😆😆 Thanks for another great reaction, and it's good to see my favourite bromance between GT and TJ continuing here, as you talk about how awesome his version of MMM is. Agreed.
Hehehe yeah that would be something to watch would it not? 😂😂😂 As always, a great comment from you Michael! Love it. And I totally agree with you! Have an awesome day! 😁✌
It's pretty fucking amazing dude. Not just cool, it's amazing \m/
Yngwie sings but on this song it's Mark Boals who sings.
Glad you enjoy it 🔥😎
He can shred the guitar. That's what he does. I agree the outro
solo could have been just a couple of bars to wrap it up.
next cover the sail of charon scorpions by yngwie malmsteen from album inspirations
Yngwie is the god father of sweeps, picking and arpeggios combined with speed techniques wich inspired todays greatest players such as Steve vai ect this is not my fav of his music, Battlefield and Brothers are my fav, thankyou for playing this great artist
And NOW for something completely different!! I actually enjoyed this version.
Agree that the guitar solo was over done 😩
But art in all its forms is open to interpretation and that is where it makes it's observers inclusive..know what l mean?🤞 The BOWL OF DESTINY is a great idea David..
To quote a scene from Jaws " I think you're gonna need a bigger bowl" 😂🤣 Good to see you again.
Take care and ciao bello! 🤗😎👋
You are so right Eleonora! YES!!! The bowl of destiny is a FANTASTIC name! Thank you! Im gonna use that to name it! Hahaha yes, I might need a bigger one 😂 You aswell! Ciao bella! 🙏🏻
When I was in college, back in the 80s, my friends and I loved Yngwie. I have most of his albums. I think this song is pretty cool.i agree, I didn't love it.
Tyvärr tyckte jag han förstörde låten totalt Tommy Johansson har gjort många bra covers på Abba's låtar med Swedish Hits Goes Metal. På båda skivorna. Tyvärr inte just denna.
Ja håller med, den var lite för rörig, lång och ”slarvig”. Ja Tommy är ju bara grym alltså 😁
Ingen video, men Tommy's version av The winner takes it all är bättre än ABBA
Intressant! Lägger nog till den som förslag för den har jag inte hört 👍🏻
@@GivenToe han gör många av Abba's låtar på dom 2 skivorna och dom är riktigt bra!! 😍
Please permit a small correction to your video title........................👍😉 "Gimme! Gimme! Gimme! ✍📝
Whoops, you are correct! 🤣👍🏻🙏🏻
@@GivenToe 👍😆
Just subscribed....
Than you very much! =) Welcome to the channel and the family!
Föredrar originalet även om den här kunde kanske få ett par poäng. Men, måsta han slakta sina egna solon😳😂. Som vanligt är dina videor SÅ roliga att titta på🙏🏻
Hahaha ja alltså slakta solon låter som ett bra ordval 😂👍🏻 Kul du gillade videon iallafall 🤣 Kan inte artisten underhålla tillräckligt, så får jag försöka 😅🙏🏻
@@GivenToe Helt rätt👍🏻
I think that Mark Bolan do the vocals...🇸🇪
This goes great on a superbike toghetr with emphetamine.
😅😅😅😅
Quiet surprise myself cause into see kind music but like it . But not good as ABBA.
Agree!
First of all, not many people can measure up to Mr. Tommy J.
I never heard of this musician, he does play good guitar, but.... there can be to much of a good thing. By the end I got tired.
Now, I hope in that bowl there you got names like "Evergray", "Beast in Black", "Alestorm" or "Visions of Atlantis" maybe?🙂
Hope you didn't work to hard, like your reaction as always.🎶🇵🇱
Yeah felt the same 😁 There is Beast in black 😁🔥 Thank you 🙏🏻
Mark Boals is the singer 💫
Cher’s version is My favorite
Hi David, I agree with your reaction. It not good, is not bad, but a bit to long and a lot different.
For me zero points 😢🥰👍💖
Yup 👍🏻😊
Hey David
It’s ok but just ok HaHa 😂 why the fxxx is he not singing MAN for xxxx sake apologies in advance 😂
Hahaha 😂😂😂😂😂
LOL I agree with you. Too long . Well, maybe my age has to do with it. I'm 70.
Well Im 33 and I thought so too 🤷🏼♂️😅
Anybody who knows who's singing? I don't think it's Yngwie... and in comparision to Tommy Johansson, who can beat him?
Mark Boals according to another comment 😁
Yngwie is not singing on this track this is Mark Boals on vocals. This cover is ok but There is to much noodling at the end.
Really? I had no idea he was not singing! THANK you for that valuble information! And yeah I agree 🙏🏻😊
@@GivenToe No problem mate. Yngwie do sing on his latest albums tho, but he aint a good singer in my not so humble opinion. 😄
Good to know 👍🏻😅
I reckon.... if you're going to have the balls to cover one ABBA's biggest songs, you should bite the bullet and sing the original lyrics. We are all thinking "why don't he say Man" anyways lol
Haha true 🤣👍🏻
Helgen har varit bra här i Karlstad i fredags var det seger fest i hela stan det var tusentals personer på plats, gick inte att komma in på nått ställe för en matbit efter firandet så det slutade med en korvkiosk 😁
Tur också att Fbk spelarna inte spelar hockey som dom sjunger 🤣
Yngve Malmsten är bra men håller med dej att han gjort så mycket bättre låtar
Haha korv är ändå underskattat 😂😂😂 Skönt att höra du haft en bra helg iallafall! 🙏🏻
@@GivenToe Korv går alltid ner 😁
Hoppas också att din och din familjs helg varit riktigt fin❣️
Exakt 😁 Absolut, tack! 🙏🏻😊
i think tommy would do it better on this song
Agreed!
Try the "Summer Night City" cover by Therion.
I don't like. But that's my opinion.
