Frida always seems happy and with joy. Her positive attitude is astounding as, in my little opinion, she's had more than an average number of tragedies/unhappy events in her life. Her positive attitude is an inspiration.
Oh our beautiful ladies, they are our Royalty. I cried hard watching the ceremony. They are so beautiful, vivacious, dignified, and deeply emotional. I love them so much. Crying again! You did such a wonderful job here! Thank you!❤️❤️❤️❤️
I'm trying to thank you, BB, for your lovely report on this ( as well as your always insightful other ones over the years). I can't put in words my feelings of respect and gratitude for ABBA and this lovely ceremony. You have said it for me. Agree with you completely everything you say
@@amespo13Yes, definitely. I do think Agnetha's family either lives with her or very close to her...so maybe she just wanted a night out on her own! Or she considered it more of a "business" affair.
I thought I recognized one of her late husband's daughters walking in with her, which, if it really was one of his daughters, makes it extra nice that she's kept that connection to the point that she's included in such a big event of Frida's life. Frida strikes me as very kind and finds joy around her.
@@SummerDaze777 Someone told me that was indeed one of Ruzzo's daughters! I'm not sure which. I think Frida has always considered them her family. When she got married she described them as her "two new daughters"
@@Cicilo1983Understand. But like Benny said, all four have to say "yes" for them to do major legacy events. Benny was a definite "No" so that was enough. Don't know about the other three. My guess is Agnetha would be a "No". Frida and Bjorn, I am guessing "Yes". Definitely a "yes" from Frida, based on her past enthusiasm for past legacy events. Also, if ABBA showed up, to Eurovision, all the spotlight would have been taken by ABBA vs the contestants.
Seeing the 4 members together is wanderful again. And to see them receive the order of vasa is just a perfect ending to the best group ever since my childhood.
I completely agree with you BB! This was perfect, and we got more then we could have hoped for. This felt good for them, as Björn said, this is from the people of Sweden. (Who nominated them for this.) And how could it have come at any other time? It has not been given out since 1974, this was the first time - and they got it! Björn and Benny have already been awarded by the King (medals) - when should this have happened, if not NOW?! Perfect finish to a beautiful saga, to good to be triue, but still is. I wish my dear countrymen all the best and to enjoy the rest of a long and blessed life! I am so thankful and proud. They are such a gift! ❤
I think you are right about this being the right time for ABBA to be given this award 50 years after really means a lot more than it would of 30 years after. True recognition of a group who has given so much to the world of music and beyond.
Merci Bobby pour cette belle vidéo de cette magnifique cérémonie et de votre excellent commentaire. C'est une belle récompense bien méritée . Merci Bobby ❤
It's always a pleasure to see the ladies together, and I'm grateful that you @Bobby's Brother, have made this amazing channel to bring the entire ABBA story to new fans. Also I'm happy that Agnetha seems to be much happier in public now, and I guess that's because her appearances are on her own terms. I think we should be very grateful that the 4 came back together to give us 1 more album, and put all that work into producing the Voyage concert. Now I feel it's time to let them go. They themselves have said many times, they want to be remembered as young and full of energy and ideas.
YOU ARE TOTALLY RIGHT AGNETHA MADE A GREAT STEP TO BE IN OPEN AREA AGAIN,I WISH HER TO IT MORE OFTEN IT'S NOT GOOD TO BE AFRAID TO GET OUT OF YOUR HOUSE TO BE LIKE A PRISON EVEN IF IT IS A FARM WITH ANIMALS!!!!GET BACK IN LIFE CHIQUITITA AGNETHA DO IT AGAIN LIKE YOU DID IN 2013!!!TRY ONCE MORE LIKE YOU DID BEFORE SING A NEW SONG CHIQUITITA AGNETHA!!!!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
How emotional!! Realising suddenly this is probably the last, their "Ode to Freedom". Many more fans must realise that, ABBA must, I think, realise that as well. They deserve stepping back. Let's just look back on all we got from them. And enjoy that. ABBA was with me all my life (their concert in Rotterdam 1979, Voyage concert this year, and following them since their first songs/albums). It was absolutely more than amazing. THANK YOU ABBA!!!!! YOU DESERVE TO STEP BACK!! Some fans and forums keep on demanding things from them. PLS let them be. Thank you BB for your nice fanship to ABBA, and information about them all the time!!
''how emotional!! Realising suddenly this is probably the last, their "Ode to Freedom".....Excactly my thoughts.I won't 'demand" anything.But they were/are like family to me,now i must admit i feel kinda devastated...oh well..
BB you are the best! Forget about the forums. I hope you realise that. In those forums (I'm not going to mention the name of the forum) you will find many grumpy fans who would like to decide "how they think ABBA should do it". If you disagree, you will be kicked out of the forum. In my opinion, this is without any respect towards any single individual, but also not towards any of the members of ABBA.
Many in public life should look to their example as a textbook way to navigate a professional and personal life. Their creative force is constantly inspiring, but matched equally by their conduct and a total understanding of what their legacy means to so many. The joy of their work knows no boundary or border and their gratitude witnessed in their 50th anniversary statement earlier this month is an eternal reminder of everything that life should be, but seldom is. We salute you dear Abba.
It might sound a bit weird, I know, but I couldn't think of my life without their music: as a child, too shy and solitary, their songs were the fuel that I needed to keep on going, as an adult , their voices never stop to resonate in my soul ,like those of some good and loyal friends, they are blessed people, that's why they deserve everything they got and more. Thank you for the music and all the joy you bring to my life!
Je suis entièrement d'accord, ABBA est le groupe le plus merveilleux que nous ayons pu voir et entendre depuis longtemps et nous espérons pouvoir les voir et les entendre encore et encore
Sweden must be so proud. ABBA has never embarrassed themselves or their country. And in the music kingdom, they are beyond royal. The meaningful glances at each other in these photos and videos, show us how much history is there between them. Beautiful. We shall never know the likes of them again.💛💙
I couldn't agree more with your sentiments! This was the PERFECT time for a ceremony and recognition such as this! And how wonderful that ABBA and the royal family go back so far together with ABBA having performed at their wedding. In today's world filled with chaos, inhumanity, misinformation and self-centeredness, the grace and integrity of ABBA offer proof of what men and women are capable of accomplishing and the power of a 'team' creating more than the sum of the individuals. We have been blessed to have lived in "ABBA's time"!
You have resumed it perfectly Bobby's brother. ABBA has completed the perfect circle as a group. There was no brighter ending. I am so happy and proud of them
Thank you Bobby's Brother, for being the royal standard for ABBA fan sites. Your platform is unlike any other because you go beyond the music and present the ABBA members as family to us, which we feel they are. And as you are!! Keep up the great work!!!☺
Thank you again BB for this heartfelt and touching recap of a most amazing day. I can't think of a better tribute to ABBA's legacy than to receive an honour like this. Not only have they proven themselves to be amazing ambassadors for Sweden, they have shown the transformative power of music to unite people despite geographic, political or philosophical differences. If this is indeed the last time we see Agnetha, Björn, Benny and Anni-Frid together in public, the memory will live on with nothing but joy in my heart. As ABBA themselves sang so poignantly "I hear a bittersweet song, in the memories we share".
All 4 members showing once again their real admiration of each other! These people are icons, Others who have big egos & think they are 'someone ' because they are so called stars should take note! This is called CLASS 😊🎉
6:41!YESss!Frida doesn't bite her words!In the past Frida had refered again to such critical voices on ABBA and all those sour grapes.I totally understand her hinted bitterness i know how she feels about it.Swedish/UK/US music press were extremely humiliating to Abba at times back then.You can't imagine the degree of toxicity Abba and us older fans had suffered from such manipulative people who had grounded a hostile status quo towards the band Benny also expressed rather kindly his little complain back in the Voyage premier when a journalist of UK music paper NME aproached them.'Oh u hated us" he kinda kindly murmered,lol.Now they/we all are having the last laugh.
Any day that we get to see new footage of ABBA together, is a great day!! How special is it that all four members are still here wowing us fans in 2024.
I just lost my Mother almost two years ago. My Mother favorite music are from the group ABBA. Hence everytime I hear ABBA music, I cannot help myself except to be emotional. Thanks for the music ABBA
Thankyou BB ,ABBA are the life blood that flows through our Souls and beings and with your channel you are the heart that circulates their LOVE for all of us to share and be immersed in the joy of the VOYAGE with them ,thankyou your words are perfect and I too am extremely emotional about all this and the recognition that ABBA have received for ALL they have done and continue to do for the world ,they were and still are a PHENOMENON for all to love and experience.
Это целая эпоха, Абба, наша жизнь, молодость. Так не хочется терять это, и жизнь не образумила, Аббу продолжаю любить, вот, что значит душа не стареет.
Here is where the story ends, this is goodbye.....Eine große Ehre für Agnetha, Frida, Björn und Benny. Ihr Lebenswerk wird vom schwedischen Volk gewürdigt, was ja nicht immer so war. Sie können stolz auf sich sein! Wir Fans sind es jedenfalls! Dies war möglicherweise der letzte gemeinsame Auftritt und es wäre ein sehr würdiger gewesen. Thank you for the music and all the love and happiness you gave to us.
Felicidades por una bonita ceremonia y para los cuatro integrantes del gran grupo ABBA especialmente para mi preferida la bellisima y talentosa Agnetha🌷 verlos reunidos es emocionante un merecido reconocimiento, deberia haber sido mucho antes pero más vale tarde que nunca, siempre los escucho, saludos con mucho cariño desde Chile 🤗🤗🤗🤗❤️❤️❤️❤️💞💞💞💞👏👏👏👏 🇨🇱 🇸🇪
Я фаната этой группы с самого начала их победы на Евровидении. Я родилась в СССР. НО 42 года прожила в Украине а теперь в Германии. И везде я слушаю АВВА . Эта музыка часть моей жизни. Спасибо им за то счастье которое они подарили человечеству! Спасибо Вам- автору этого видео!
Es tut mir leid für Sie, dass Sie in einer gerade sehr traurigen Situation leben müssen. Das muss schwer sein. Ich hoffe, die Musik von Abba kann Ihnen zwischendurch den Alltag erhellen. Liebe Grüsse 🫶
Ja /yes ABBA music is ..VERY.. brillante Sound and Charmant 4 Member /...Grande Gratulation from Germany ...to "Vasa" Orden ❤...ABBA WE LOVE YOU for EVER...
It is so heart-warming to know that ABBA's popularity extended behind the Iron Curtain. Back in the day, we didn't know about this group of ABBA fans. So a belated hello and welcome to the ABBA family
Growing old together for sure... I was age 15 when I first heard ABBA on the radio, now 65. Time goes by so quickly. I'm sure the ABBA members are thinking the same. 50 years, it's hard to believe, but perfect timing for these awards.
Although we, the fans, could not be with them inside the palace, just witnessing the ceremony outside the palace by watching the livestream together was incredibly emotional and such a nice experience. We‘ve made new friends among each other and shared wonderful stories. I‘m so very proud of Agnetha, Benny, Björn and Frida. It not only warmth my heart, it is deeply moving to see them together, for what I take it, probably the last time together (at least in public). This is very hard to grasp; we haves witnessed history. My heart goes out to Frida for sitting in the front seat, so we could see her. To Agnetha for winding down the window after the ceremony (so nice to see her happy and relaxed that day), to Benny and Björn for trying to get the windows down. To all 4 for having shared their individual talents with this world and with that, leaving their footprints in music history forever. Bravo!
'warmth my heart".../"we've made new friends among each other and shared wonderful stories"...A perfect example on how music can work as a connecting bond and not as a dividing code. And I'll keep those phrases ,thank you.
or reconsidered for better about them.Fortunately there were a few non prejudiced back then who dared to charachterised them as a 'phenomenon" as opposed to the narrow minded ones who dismissed them for being ''commercial crap''.And let's not forget that their talent even got recognised by other major rock acts in the '70s/'80s who didn't approve of Abba's critics and all the negative views that were thrown against them..
Я был в Швеции - Гетеборге, в музыкальном магазине ( 1997 г.), хотел купить на память кассеты с записями АВВА, продавец не нашла😢... Уже была другая мода... Но, время всё рассудило правильно! Спасибо за музыку❤
Realmente, muito merecida homenagem. ABBA deixou legado musical e artístico extraordinária. Marcaram linda época, esfuziante, com muita alegria. Todos os fãs do ABBA estão muito contentes com a homenagem. Se não me engano, é a rainha Silvia que esteve presente. Parece-me que a mãe dela é brasileira. Ela passou alguns anos no Brasil. Gosta muito do Brasil.
They are more important than any politicians out there because they spread love and peace and unity with their music. Not war and hate and division. A very deserving award unlike the false accolades dished out to those who don't bring any peace to this world. Well done ABBA!
That was so beautiful Abba truly deserve this amazing award Abba reign supreme a over the world with their songs that will never be forgotten any time soon Thank u Abba I love u so much ❤❤❤❤❤❤😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊
It truly does feel like a fitting ending, the only other scenario I could see all four back together again in public for is the closing of abba voyage in London in 2026. This is assuming they are all in good health, but if that isn’t the case, how can any of us complain? We as fans have been given a gift that most fans never get from artists. If you had told me when I first discovered abba that by 2022 they would release a new album and have a new concert experience I never would have believed you. So if this is the end, all I can say is thank you for the music!
The extra footage after the ceremony by the Spanish film unit is charming. We see Agnetha and Frida having some fun with fellow award recipient Eva Rydberg who was seated in the row behind. I'm sure some of us have watched the moments when ABBA received their awards repeatedly. To follow protocol, each recipient had to adjust their walk so that they approached the royal couple straight on instead of from an angle. When Frida made her approach she looks up and breaks out into a big smile and there is definitely a muted chuckle heard. It sounds like Benny and sure enough as she passes by, he has a big grin on his face. I wonder what amusing thing happened there?
What a group! It never will end... (sigh) That last statement, "Abba were a class act..." that's exactly what I couldn't find the words for, but that sums it up precisely...
I will never forget the first time I turned on the radio and heard the powerful opening of "Waterloo". WOW!!! What a sound!!! And it was just the beginning and the music just kept coming!!!! Never disappointed!!!!
They all arrived in separate cars. Abba did that for them. Any misgivings I thought Abba didn't like being Abba, we're ended here. Benny was beaming. Frida was the Trouper! Thanks for the video B.B.
@@Vikinggirl1679 I was wondering that as well, but that doesn't have to mean anything seriously, her (their) son is there. She probably appreciates what her husband is doing, one can do that without showing up..
did l get that right that benny there was nothing planned all of them together for tonight, not even going for a drink together? thats disappointing to me.
I am such a proud fan of ABBA's IV loved them from 1972 it's such an honour to be a fan of the best group in the world I love and adore ABBA they are my second family ♥️
Very emotional to watch this beautiful ceremony seeing ABBA received their well deserved awards 👏 ❤ LOVE Fridas comment ! ABBA have had the last laugh on their crass critics 😅 .They have brought 50 years of joy as a ABBA fanatic❤❤❤❤❤❤
Thank you BB for another great coverage on our Beloved ABBA. What a worthy and honorable celebration for our Super Troupers. This made my Day seeing them all together once again. That alone was a real celebration in itself !❤ Tack!
So wonderful, so dignified, a true inspiration to us 65s fast approaching 70 who have lived with Abba throughout our lives. Agnethas solo albums are amongst my precious things - even though everything is on MP3s or streamed, my CD collection of everything Abba will never go to the charity shop xxxx
Wonderful video and wonderful words from you...ABBA has been so important during my life, in the good and in the bad moments that I am totally happy to see the four artists together in this illustrious ceremony. It is very nice that they have finally overcome their personal problems, being able to share this goid deserved honour. ❤❤❤❤
Действительно: ABBA-- лучший Посол своей страны! Больше всех политиков сделали для популяризации Швеции! Королевство должно быть благодарно этой четвёрке! Лучше, чем они никто его не представит. Ни сейчас, ни потом! Пока живёт их музыка!
This brings joy to my heart, an award so well deserved & you can see the love & respect they all have for each other. As your subscriber numbers keep rising, a special thank you also to you BB for your hard work & dedication to this channel. You are our go to man for all Abba news & we thank you too.. To any members of Abba or those with connections to Abba, if anybody deserves an interview with them it’s this man, and we would all love to see that day when BB does that… Congratulations BB for your channels success.
Thank you Bobby’s Brother for making this beautifully written video that is now another part of ABBA’s story too. Your writing moved me as it feels so wonderful to hear someone describe what Abba means to them because I understand and feel the same way. The validation is especially meaningful to a fan since the beginning when I seemed to be the only one I knew who “got” them. I’m so appreciative of your videos and I have learnt so many things from your infinite knowledge of ABBA. I was very fortunate to attend the second anniversary show of Voyage It was my 15th time and it was the best one I had seen. The band was perfect and the backup singers amazing - probably because they knew Benny and Bjorn were in the audience. My friends say I’m an ABBAdict. Lol but I don’t ever come close to your knowledge and incredible love of ABBA. So again thank you for making these videos and for the happiness they bring me.
15th?!!!Wow!🤩tell that to -(only a few) judgemental haters who still insist that the whole Voyage idea is a fake 'lazy' invention that 'destroys music" just for the money without them even having seen it.
What an honor they're given the recognition they so deserved...One of a kind musical group that captured the hearts of the people worldwide...More power to each one of them... 🦋🐞
Abba are like family to me and to see a reunion like this is breathtaking. Such beautiful souls.
Yes indeed! ♡♡♡♡
I enjoyed how Frida was so happy to talk to the interviewer and gave him her time.
Frida always seems happy and with joy. Her positive attitude is astounding as, in my little opinion, she's had more than an average number of tragedies/unhappy events in her life. Her positive attitude is an inspiration.
Oh our beautiful ladies, they are our Royalty. I cried hard watching the ceremony. They are so beautiful, vivacious, dignified, and deeply emotional. I love them so much. Crying again! You did such a wonderful job here! Thank you!❤️❤️❤️❤️
I don't think you are the only one crying while watching this, it's pretty emotional for good reason.
Absolutely well said Deidre!
I'm trying to thank you, BB, for your lovely report on this ( as well as your always insightful other ones over the years). I can't put in words my feelings of respect and gratitude for ABBA and this lovely ceremony. You have said it for me. Agree with you completely everything you say
💗Musik verbindet💝Thank you for the Music ABBA🌹🫶
Frida rolling in with her full posse, sunglasses on 😎 I love it!
So true! I only wish Agnetha’s family could have accompanied her.
@@amespo13Yes, definitely. I do think Agnetha's family either lives with her or very close to her...so maybe she just wanted a night out on her own! Or she considered it more of a "business" affair.
I thought I recognized one of her late husband's daughters walking in with her, which, if it really was one of his daughters, makes it extra nice that she's kept that connection to the point that she's included in such a big event of Frida's life. Frida strikes me as very kind and finds joy around her.
@@SummerDaze777 Someone told me that was indeed one of Ruzzo's daughters! I'm not sure which. I think Frida has always considered them her family. When she got married she described them as her "two new daughters"
Makes me so happy they skipped Eurovision & saved the moment for this royal ceremony.
I’ll be greedy and say that I wish they’d done both! 😃
@@Cicilo1983 I agree but this is much classier
@@Cicilo1983Understand. But like Benny said, all four have to say "yes" for them to do major legacy events. Benny was a definite "No" so that was enough. Don't know about the other three. My guess is Agnetha would be a "No". Frida and Bjorn, I am guessing "Yes". Definitely a "yes" from Frida, based on her past enthusiasm for past legacy events.
Also, if ABBA showed up, to Eurovision, all the spotlight would have been taken by ABBA vs the contestants.
I couldn't be more proud of my ABBA! There is so much love admiration and respect for them and they deserve every bit of it.
Seeing the 4 members together is wanderful again. And to see them receive the order of vasa is just a perfect ending to the best group ever since my childhood.
Ending????? No way, why?
thank you so much
this is a verry good Video
ABBA are so beautiful 👍
And IF this is the last time they decide to be "on show together" then how fitting and what class.
I completely agree with you BB! This was perfect, and we got more then we could have hoped for. This felt good for them, as Björn said, this is from the people of Sweden. (Who nominated them for this.) And how could it have come at any other time? It has not been given out since 1974, this was the first time - and they got it!

Their music saves the world!
Bravo! Thank you Bobby's Brother! Simple Kindness is exactly how I feel and always felt about ABBA!
❤😂🎉J'ai l'impression d'avoir reçu une distinction en étant un fan inconditionnel du groupe ABBA que j'aime depuis un demi siècle💚😘💋

You have resumed it perfectly Bobby's brother. ABBA has completed the perfect circle as a group. There was no brighter ending. I am so happy and proud of them
STUNNING beauties, shinging like stars, also Benny and Björn!!!
Hi Bobby's Brother, we are with you..
Love each of your heartfelt expressions on ABBA. ❤
It was the absolute perfect moment for this award - after 50 glorious years.

Я фаната этой группы с самого начала их победы на Евровидении. Я родилась в СССР. НО 42 года прожила в Украине а теперь в Германии. И везде я слушаю АВВА . Эта музыка часть моей жизни. Спасибо им за то счастье которое они подарили человечеству! Спасибо Вам- автору этого видео!
Es tut mir leid für Sie, dass Sie in einer gerade sehr traurigen Situation leben müssen. Das muss schwer sein. Ich hoffe, die Musik von Abba kann Ihnen zwischendurch den Alltag erhellen. Liebe Grüsse 🫶
Ja /yes ABBA music is ..VERY.. brillante Sound and Charmant 4 Member /...Grande Gratulation from Germany ...to "Vasa" Orden ❤...ABBA WE LOVE YOU for EVER...
It is so heart-warming to know that ABBA's popularity extended behind the Iron Curtain. Back in the day, we didn't know about this group of ABBA fans. So a belated hello and welcome to the ABBA family
ABBA the greatest band ever and great ambassador for Sweden x
'the greatestest"!
Amazing pics and coments. Thank you so much, Bobby. Big hug from San Luis, Argentina
I watched the ceremony on UA-cam. Don't speak Swedish but it was a great event, four friends ohnererd for what they gave the world. Beautiful.
ABBA is for ever. They made 1000 memories for millions of people around the world 🌍. 🙋♂️
8:38 "ABBA How beautiful to see you"."Abba who has always radiated kindness and purity"....a complete circle.
Two ladies very beautiful.
❤❤👑👑 LOVE FOREVER THANK YOU TRUE LOVE 👑👑❤❤
👍👑❤👑👍
👍❤👍
MUSIC IS MAGIC AND ABBA THE BEST FOREVER!!!! Thank YOU, ABBA!!!
Apart from their enormous talent...they are down-to-earth gorgeous people. They are so loved and very deserving of all the honours 😃🖐🇦🇺🐨❤
Growing old together for sure... I was age 15 when I first heard ABBA on the radio, now 65. Time goes by so quickly. I'm sure the ABBA members are thinking the same. 50 years, it's hard to believe, but perfect timing for these awards.
A class act and totally deserving of their award.
Well said Bobby’s brother! Theres a colossal amount of love and respect around the world for these 4 people .
Although we, the fans, could not be with them inside the palace, just witnessing the ceremony outside the palace by watching the livestream together was incredibly emotional and such a nice experience. We‘ve made new friends among each other and shared wonderful stories. I‘m so very proud of Agnetha, Benny, Björn and Frida. It not only warmth my heart, it is deeply moving to see them together, for what I take it, probably the last time together (at least in public). This is very hard to grasp; we haves witnessed history.
My heart goes out to Frida for sitting in the front seat, so we could see her. To Agnetha for winding down the window after the ceremony (so nice to see her happy and relaxed that day), to Benny and Björn for trying to get the windows down. To all 4 for having shared their individual talents with this world and with that, leaving their footprints in music history forever.
Bravo!
'warmth my heart".../"we've made new friends among each other and shared wonderful stories"...A perfect example on how music can work as a connecting bond and not as a dividing code.
And I'll keep those phrases ,thank you.
ABBA has OUTLASTED their few critics. Those are silent now.
or reconsidered for better about them.Fortunately there were a few non prejudiced back then who dared to charachterised them as a 'phenomenon" as opposed to the narrow minded ones who dismissed them for being ''commercial crap''.And let's not forget that their talent even got recognised by other major rock acts in the '70s/'80s who didn't approve of Abba's critics and all the negative views that were thrown against them..
Я был в Швеции - Гетеборге, в музыкальном магазине ( 1997 г.), хотел купить на память кассеты с записями АВВА, продавец не нашла😢...
Уже была другая мода...
Но, время всё рассудило правильно!
Спасибо за музыку❤

@@АнуарБалахметов-я9р Yes in their case 'karma was a bitch".As you've so well said "time judged everything correctly"!
BRAVO ABBAAAAAAAAAA YOU DESERVE IT 1000%!!!!!LONG LIVE TO THE KINGS AND QUEENS OF MUSIC!!!!GOD BLESS YOU!!!!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
ABBA: ¡Gracias por deleitarnos con su música!
,, Спаsибо Вам за музыку " и конечно же за Песни !!!
Realmente, muito merecida homenagem. ABBA deixou legado musical e artístico extraordinária. Marcaram linda época, esfuziante, com muita alegria. Todos os fãs do ABBA estão muito contentes com a homenagem. Se não me engano, é a rainha Silvia que esteve presente. Parece-me que a mãe dela é brasileira. Ela passou alguns anos no Brasil. Gosta muito do Brasil.
Lost account how many times i've watched this great video since yesterday.Always emotional.
They are more important than any politicians out there because they spread love and peace and unity with their music. Not war and hate and division. A very deserving award unlike the false accolades dished out to those who don't bring any peace to this world. Well done ABBA!
You got me in tears again, stunning photos
F O R E V E R 💧❤🎼🌎ABBA🌏🎼❤👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
So schön!
That was so beautiful Abba truly deserve this amazing award Abba reign supreme a over the world with their songs that will never be forgotten any time soon Thank u Abba I love u so much ❤❤❤❤❤❤😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊
It truly does feel like a fitting ending, the only other scenario I could see all four back together again in public for is the closing of abba voyage in London in 2026. This is assuming they are all in good health, but if that isn’t the case, how can any of us complain? We as fans have been given a gift that most fans never get from artists. If you had told me when I first discovered abba that by 2022 they would release a new album and have a new concert experience I never would have believed you. So if this is the end, all I can say is thank you for the music!
The extra footage after the ceremony by the Spanish film unit is charming. We see Agnetha and Frida having some fun with fellow award recipient Eva Rydberg who was seated in the row behind. I'm sure some of us have watched the moments when ABBA received their awards repeatedly. To follow protocol, each recipient had to adjust their walk so that they approached the royal couple straight on instead of from an angle. When Frida made her approach she looks up and breaks out into a big smile and there is definitely a muted chuckle heard. It sounds like Benny and sure enough as she passes by, he has a big grin on his face. I wonder what amusing thing happened there?
Świetnie znów są ABBA razem cieszy mnie i życzę im długich lat i dużo zdrowia
What a group! It never will end... (sigh) That last statement, "Abba were a class act..." that's exactly what I couldn't find the words for, but that sums it up precisely...
petra de vries from the netherlands. i am a fan i was 10 years old. this is great well deserved. all 4 members. a wunderful video i love it.
I will never forget the first time I turned on the radio and heard the powerful opening of "Waterloo". WOW!!! What a sound!!! And it was just the beginning and the music just kept coming!!!! Never disappointed!!!!
They all arrived in separate cars. Abba did that for them. Any misgivings I thought Abba didn't like being Abba, we're ended here. Benny was beaming. Frida was the Trouper! Thanks for the video B.B.
Where was Benny's wife??? You never see her coming to support him. Strange
@@Vikinggirl1679 I was wondering that as well, but that doesn't have to mean anything seriously, her (their) son is there. She probably appreciates what her husband is doing, one can do that without showing up..
@Vikinggirl1679 жена старше Бенни, наверно состарилась.
@@alexandraegorova1629 sorry don't read Russian and don't know how to Google translate
did l get that right that benny there was nothing planned all of them together for tonight, not even going for a drink together? thats disappointing to me.
I am such a proud fan of ABBA's IV loved them from 1972 it's such an honour to be a fan of the best group in the world I love and adore ABBA they are my second family ♥️
Simply the best ...😊
Pero qué maravilla! 🙌🏻
Los escuché x primera vez,en el año 1978,,desde entonces,,,una enamorada de sus canciones !!!!...desde Argentina..
Do Brasil. Adoro o ABBA . Sua música e um dom do Bondoso Deus para a humanidade.
Lindo y maravilloso video. Felicitaciones al grupo Abba, siempre mi favorito.
Very emotional to watch this beautiful ceremony seeing ABBA received their well deserved awards 👏 ❤ LOVE Fridas comment ! ABBA have had the last laugh on their crass critics 😅 .They have brought 50 years of joy as a ABBA fanatic❤❤❤❤❤❤
Thank you BB for another great coverage on our Beloved ABBA. What a worthy and honorable celebration for our Super Troupers. This made my Day seeing them all together once again. That alone was a real celebration in itself !❤ Tack!
So wonderful, so dignified, a true inspiration to us 65s fast approaching 70 who have lived with Abba throughout our lives. Agnethas solo albums are amongst my precious things - even though everything is on MP3s or streamed, my CD collection of everything Abba will never go to the charity shop xxxx
*50 Years Onwards*
*Perfect Timing & Recognition*
Well said and done. Thank you Bobby‘s Brother!
ABBA FOREVER 💙💛💛💙
Wonderful video and wonderful words from you...ABBA has been so important during my life, in the good and in the bad moments that I am totally happy to see the four artists together in this illustrious ceremony. It is very nice that they have finally overcome their personal problems, being able to share this goid deserved honour. ❤❤❤❤
Bobby che meraviglia assistere ha questa onoreficenza per gli Abba grazie Bobby.
Efectivamente, se completó el círculo.❤❤
Действительно: ABBA-- лучший Посол своей страны!
Больше всех политиков сделали для популяризации Швеции! Королевство должно быть благодарно этой четвёрке! Лучше, чем они никто его не представит. Ни сейчас, ни потом! Пока живёт их музыка!
ABBA is timeless. The legends of ABBA belong to the highest world musical order for centuries to come.
This brings joy to my heart, an award so well deserved & you can see the love & respect they all have for each other. As your subscriber numbers keep rising, a special thank you also to you BB for your hard work & dedication to this channel. You are our go to man for all Abba news & we thank you too.. To any members of Abba or those with connections to Abba, if anybody deserves an interview with them it’s this man, and we would all love to see that day when BB does that… Congratulations BB for your channels success.
Oh Bobbys Brother, this is your most beautiful post ever. I’m moved to tears. Yes, it’s truly an astounding time. Thank you. 🎉
Beautifully captured. Du sammanfattade perfekt vad troligtvis all vi Abba älskare här upplevde och kände när vi tittade på den kungliga utmärkelsen. 💖
Thank you Bobby’s Brother for making this beautifully written video that is now another part of ABBA’s story too. Your writing moved me as it feels so wonderful to hear someone describe what Abba means to them because I understand and feel the same way. The validation is especially meaningful to a fan since the beginning when I seemed to be the only one I knew who “got” them. I’m so appreciative of your videos and I have learnt so many things from your infinite knowledge of ABBA. I was very fortunate to attend the second anniversary show of Voyage It was my 15th time and it was the best one I had seen. The band was perfect and the backup singers amazing - probably because they knew Benny and Bjorn were in the audience. My friends say I’m an ABBAdict. Lol but I don’t ever come close to your knowledge and incredible love of ABBA. So again thank you for making these videos and for the happiness they bring me.
15th?!!!Wow!🤩tell that to -(only a few) judgemental haters who still insist that the whole Voyage idea is a fake 'lazy' invention that 'destroys music" just for the money without them even having seen it.
Aw, thank you very much for your heartfelt words. It means a lot to me. We share the same love!
What an honor they're given the recognition they so deserved...One of a kind musical group that captured the hearts of the people worldwide...More power to each one of them... 🦋🐞
