    Hi all welcome back to another video Dereck Reacts back at it again! This time around we take a look at another reaction with ABBA this time around with a live performance with Bjorn, Frida, and Benny. Frida and Bjorn slay with vocals with "Why Did It Have to Be Me?" What's most impressive is Frida's onstage dominance like never seen before.

      They used to let each girl have one song off during longer sets, so they’d each do a solo song while the other girl had a few minutes off stage. I mean they were both solo artists before the creation of ABBA, so they have no problem owning the stage.

    For those not around at the time... It's Australia, 1977. Anna is back stage changing for the next song.. THIS is the (NOW CLASSIC!) stage performance that scorched Frida indelibly into every male brain that ever saw this. Many consider this her best ever live performance ! Ever see a girl rock a song like this? She was gorgeous, smokin hot, into the song, perfect pitch with arguably one of the best mezzo soprano voices ever, and having the time of her life!
    The record crowd, all fans, were delirious!

    Agnetha was getting changed for 'The Girl With The Golden Hair' mini-musical part of the show, during this performance. Straight after this, Frida also went backstage to quickly get into an identical outfit. During this time, Benny played the instrumental, Intermezzo No.1. The girls wore outfits including wigs to look like marionettes. From a distance it was hard to tell them apart.

      Chelseaharger is bang on correct. Why Did It Have To Be Me was vocally performed as a duet by Bjorn (Be Urine!) and Frida during the 77 and 79 tours (though there is no video of the 79 performance officially released). From the rare fan videos that exist as part of that tour, Frida keeps delivering the same high octane performance. Definately one of the best ABBA in concert moments...although the 79 live take on 'Summer Night City' is the finest for me.

    ABBA the Movie, besides the story line, will offer you many great live performances. The interaction with the audience is fabulous. Frida is the most natural performer of all of them. Whereas Agnetha will tell you she loves recording, Frida loves the stage and the audience. This is how she is. Especially on Dancing Queen. But all are great.

"Why did it have to be me" has the same music than "Happy Hawaii" has. Personally i like "Happy Hawaii" a little more, but....this live performance is phenomenal, just like you said. Btw: the song is also included in the movie "Mamma Mia ! Here we go again!. That´s the reason why 2018 it climed up the charts in several countries .

It was very popular group in Sweden. Benny was in a band called The Hepstars. They were the biggest band in Scandinavia in their time. Then one time Benny and Björn met and started jamming together. They`ve been the best of friends ever since. And like they say: the rest is music history at it`s best.

    As @chelseacharger said, Agnetha is out changing. They used this song the same way in their 1979 tour. Agnetha went off the stage, and the rest of the group did this song. Then Frida and Björn went off and Benny did Intermezzo No 1 on his own. Agnetha came back, Benny went out to change and Agnetha sat down at the piano and did one of her own songs 'I'm Still Alive'. A fantastic song that she never recorded in the studio, but is preserved in the bands from some of the concerts.

    Another example of ABBA being fantastic live (compared to the original great version); also from 'ABBA the Movie' (and completely uninterrupted with the movie's story) is ABBA's gospel-style 'He Is Your Brother' (also available through UA-cam 😊 ...hint, hint 😉), were all four sing and perform with pure electric power.
    I look forward to you reviewing that one too 😁

      Great list and plenty with performances to tap into. Can't wait for 'Our Last Summer' (although theres no actual performance) but my top picks for Dereck apart from that one would be 'Dance (While The Music Still Goes On)', 'I've Been Waiting For You', 'That's Me; 'Bang-A-Boomerang', 'Tiger', 'Thank You For The Music', 'I Do, I Do, I Do, I Do, I Do', 'My Love My Life', 'So Long', 'Move On', and 'One Man One Woman'. I think 'Watch Out' would scare the hell out of Dereck!

  • @MrAtletico45
    @MrAtletico45 2 роки тому +3

    Let me tell you Dereck that you've called this music anything but what it really is
    Pure Rock & Roll and they do it fantatically. They started out in 1974 with their
    Waterloo and it was called pure R&R Revival.They have been true to that kind of
    music. Even Just a Notion is Rock & Roll. Just listen to the intro!

  • @synchronicityman9062
    @synchronicityman9062 3 роки тому +17

    Yeah!! I'm delighted that you finally got around to this one. 'Frida on Fire' truly sums it up! I'm glad it got you excited like it has so many ABBA fans for years. I've always felt that Frida was the life and soul of the ABBA party, and this is a perfect illustration of it. Agnetha was the lovely, sweet girl next door that you could take home to meet your Mum, whereas Frida was the girl you would head into town to have fun with!! For another 'Frida on Fire' moment you really should check out 'So Long' from the TV special 'Made in Sweden For Export' (1975). I'm pretty sure that'll get you excited too!!

    Good Lord, I was at this concert, with my mother, I was 9 yrs old and I couldn't believe it was real! Agnetha was there, just not for this song. The studio version is awesome, you should listen to it. The entire 'Arrival' album is solid gold. I was so obsessed, my Mum used to make me outfits, same as what they wore (maybe not the little shorts) lol

    I've never heard this before...I was too young to ever see ABBA live, mainly because my parents would never have let me go on my own as a young teenager, and it would have been in a different city. But this is so much more spontaneous and lively than the studio version: given that it's live, it's surprising that the vocals sound so much stronger. Happy Hawaii - it has to be said that, if you listen to it, you'll realise why it got binned...

  • @The_Jupiter2_Mission
    @The_Jupiter2_Mission 3 роки тому +7

    The Australian Tour is the best in terms of their live sound. They had a full orchestra as opposed to the much paired down subsequent tours. You should check out other stuff from the tour.
    I'm a Marionette from the tour will give you a kick. Also Carousel which was never recorded and bit found its way into Hole in Your Soul.
    Now as to live sound.
    They did have to do some overdubs in the studio for the film . I don't know if it was some or all. Some of the sound quality was not sufficient for the film and had to be remixed.
    There are bootlegs on youtube of songs from the Australian Tour taken by the audience. Being 1977, fans did not have access to the recording facilities of today and they will sound likely quite muffled and tinny.
    As to giving away age, I was there at the rainy Sydney concert where Frida fell over.

    There is a very different live version of this song from an ABBA special that the Swedish Broadcasting Company produced in 1976 (quite sensational, actually, as pop music was not considered good taste at that point and Swedish TV and radio to a great extend tried to ignore ABBA and were very critical towards them). Here, both Frida and Agnetha belt it out, and they're all so cute! ua-cam.com/video/aDXnkD3YbKw/v-deo.html

    Funny you should mention Frida's 'bump in the trunk', if you are interested, react to He is Your Brother from the same concert and you'll get a nice view of Agnetha's. :) Australian newspapers were filled with pictures of her rear end. But anyway, both of the girls look fantastic here, the outfits from this concert are my favourite. And they all sound awesome.

    4:00 That sax sound was typical for Swedish "dance bands" of the 60s/70s and early 80s (the sax riff on "I do I do I do" even more so). But it has connections with the big band jazz tradition of the 1920s and onwards as well, of course.
