      You have the privilege to notice all those details now but back in 1970 nothing you are describing was actually important: teeth, skin, hair. back then there was no UA-cam or even a way people can replay this video.

      Yeah, them and Wyld Stallyns. Slow your roll just a shade, dude. ABBA was truly great pop harmonies, with great instincts of matching their music to their lyrics - the music flowed so good thanks to those girls' voices. But you might need to expand your music group repertoire just a bit if you think humanity has never seen anything as good and better...

      ​@@bigbattenbergSabe de onde escuto essa música desde 2006, quando me tornei fã do ABBA? Aracaju, Brasil 🇧🇷 Desde os meus 13 anos (hoje tenho 30) ouvindo o quarteto sueco de maior sucesso na história.

    Видно на небесах ангелы очень постарались, что за 50 лет нет ничего и близко подобного, несмотря на большое изобилие групп.
    Что касается этой песни, видимо ребята заглянули внутрь себя. Именно так всё потом и произошло, сначала с одной парой, потом с другой.
    Долгих лет вам и храни вас Бог!
    Мы вас просто любим!

    Lyrically, as dark as anything you would hear in punk or metal, and they wrap it all up in that honeyed sound. Beautiful, and not a lick of age on it.

    How we loved them in the 1970’s. Most young ppl today have no idea how much fun we had dancing and listening to Abba. We really lived emotionally through their music in a way.

      Elise Walker 'complemented' actually. Common spelling mistake. Like 'stationary' and 'stationery'. I think Abba surprised even themselves. The two ladies were originally backing singers for Benny and Björn, in 1970. Apart from Agnetha, they were touching thirty-years-old when they sprung 'Waterloo' on the Anglosphere in '74. In those intervening years, their persistence ultimately paid dividends: how excited they must have been to figure out that although English was not their native language, they could still make a huge impact. They worked out their sound.
