hello again, dear Paulie I am very happy that you have finally reached this historic moment The great world news of this 21st century for the world of music is the return of the legendary Swedish group ABBA to the recording studios in 2017 after more than 35 years (the last song recorded was "The day before you came" in 1982) and the release of their new songs after 39 years (the last single released was "Under attack" in 1982) and a new full studio album after 40 years (the last was "The Visitors" in 1981) Beyond the fact that these three data are for the Guinness book of records (I think that no group or singer or artist can come close to these incredible and surprising brands), the most remarkable thing is how they came back, with what level of quality. And I must say that ABBA overcame all fears, doubts and expectations. Their return is impressive and their quality is still valid, amazing! We know the great spirit of perfection that Björn & Benny imprint on their creations, and their first two releases are on a par with their greatest hits of the 80s. But the biggest unknown was to know the state of the voices of Agnetha & Frida and how they could react to the inevitable passing of the decades and their possible comparisons with previous classics And I must say they both look great. And in this look there is an extraordinary job of care by Björn & Benny to "pamper" their historical singers, and ex-partners. They were gifted with two wonderful songs, with beautiful melodies and deep lyrics, but they were also surrounded by the iconic hooks and the call for emotional nostalgia. "I still have faith in you" is a song unreleased at its conception in the history of ABBA because it is self-referential about them as a group; and it is also testimonial, because they tell us their experiences in all this time Musically is a ballad with mystique and epic A majestic piano and the soft voice of Frida lead and recreate the story of ABBA with a moving beauty, with Agnetha joining in on some verses to emphasize The sound of the drums (a nod to the megahit "Fernando") preparing the change of rhythm And with a powerful guitar comes that first unpublished chorus, because this time all ABBA sings from the depths of its history and with the strength of its testimony of life, healing and union And in the second part the second chorus is even stronger, it is very clear that ABBA sings with the passion and courage that Björn's excellent lyrics highlight, it is like a triumphal song of their survival and their bond. And it ends with a solo by Frida, impeccable, with the sound of the flutes at the end The official video is also unprecedented in the history of ABBA For the first time, it shows them in the past and retrospective The entire first part (in black and white) is from their youth and beginnings, up to the Eurovision picture Then comes (in colours) the memorable tour to Australia, with images of the incredible 'ABBAmania' and for the change of rhythm and the first chorus comes a succession of all the official ABBA videos up to and including 1979 Then comes the new melodic bridge and the image from the beginning is resumed: ABBA prepared to go out to their last concerts in London 1979 and that second chorus is interpreted by them as their 'ABBAtars' And here is a symbology: that scene is like the transition: ABBA is no longer the ones we remember, now we will see them in their ABBAtars recreating their 70s image And that's how they look now at the Voyage Concerts which opened at the new ABBA Arena in London since May 2022 This official video was released worldwide in a Live Stream transmission that showed ABBA fan meetings simultaneously in various cities around the world: Stockholm, London, Vienna, Berlin, Rejkiavik, New York, São Paulo, etc. the BBC in London interrupted its usual programming to join the launch of this video at exactly 5:00 p.m. on September 2 (2021) And for the second song "Don't shut me down" the lights were turned on with the new images of ABBA Voyage on the main bridge of Sydney at night in Australia while the images showed many mature ABBA fans crying with emotion to listen again new ABBA songs after almost 40 years (as I cried from a distance following the live broadcast on UA-cam) Thank you for your great reaction, with all due respect to all of ABBA's music and history. See you in the next ABBA video My best regards from Buenos Aires, Argentina 🇦🇷 South America.
Beautiful song by ABBA. Great footage of their earlier years, but the coolest is the CGI versions of themselves that were in the video at the end. It looks real, but not quite. It is fun seeing that. However, I would have preferred seeing them as they are now, singing and performing their new and old songs. Other performers have continued through the years and they have aged with us. Great reaction. Loved ABBA back then, still love them now. Check out Don't Shut Me Down, the other song that has been released. It is very great, too.
Me too. I would have preferred to see them as they are now, just like they didn't 'fix' their voices. I know they wanted to promote their hologram concert series, but still
CUIDATE PAULIE. ABBAS REUNION AND COMEBACK IS TRULY MIRACULOUS. AND THEN WE HAVE GREAT LYRICS WHICH ARE SO MEANINGFUL AND INSPIRING. WITH SOME MATURITY TO THEIR VOICES, THEIR VOICES ARE THE SAME. AS A STRONG MALE, I FOUND THE SONG WAS PULLING AT MY HEART - IT WAS MAKING ME "EMOTIONAL" FROM EMILIO IN ADELAIDE CITY IN AUSTRALIA
In the video, the ABBAtars may look too artificial but in the actual Voyage Show this is no issue at all. The show is a jaw dropping, very emotional, experience!
Greatest comeback ever existed in music history
The best ever
First time we saw this Sept '21 my heart was booming like a drum machine ready to explode.i cried my eyes out.Guess many of us did.
ABBA was created by God itself to bring hope ,peace and love to this world Arigato Paulie
Ricky thanks 🙏🔥
Hi everybody this song that I'm reacting to is from the album Voyage by ABBA ' I Still Have Faith In You ' thanks for watching
hello again, dear Paulie
I am very happy that you have finally reached this historic moment
The great world news of this 21st century for the world of music is the return of the legendary Swedish group ABBA to the recording studios in 2017 after more than 35 years (the last song recorded was "The day before you came" in 1982) and the release of their new songs after 39 years (the last single released was "Under attack" in 1982) and a new full studio album after 40 years (the last was "The Visitors" in 1981)
Beyond the fact that these three data are for the Guinness book of records (I think that no group or singer or artist can come close to these incredible and surprising brands), the most remarkable thing is how they came back, with what level of quality.
And I must say that ABBA overcame all fears, doubts and expectations.
Their return is impressive and their quality is still valid, amazing!
We know the great spirit of perfection that Björn & Benny imprint on their creations, and their first two releases are on a par with their greatest hits of the 80s.
But the biggest unknown was to know the state of the voices of Agnetha & Frida and how they could react to the inevitable passing of the decades and their possible comparisons with previous classics And I must say they both look great.
And in this look there is an extraordinary job of care by Björn & Benny to "pamper" their historical singers, and ex-partners. They were gifted with two wonderful songs, with beautiful melodies and deep lyrics, but they were also surrounded by the iconic hooks and the call for emotional nostalgia.
"I still have faith in you" is a song unreleased at its conception in the history of ABBA
because it is self-referential about them as a group; and it is also testimonial, because they tell us their experiences in all this time
Musically is a ballad with mystique and epic
A majestic piano and the soft voice of Frida lead and recreate the story of ABBA with a moving beauty, with Agnetha joining in on some verses to emphasize
The sound of the drums (a nod to the megahit "Fernando") preparing the change of rhythm
And with a powerful guitar comes that first unpublished chorus, because this time all ABBA sings from the depths of its history and with the strength of its testimony of life, healing and union
And in the second part the second chorus is even stronger, it is very clear that ABBA sings with the passion and courage that Björn's excellent lyrics highlight, it is like a triumphal song of their survival and their bond.
And it ends with a solo by Frida, impeccable, with the sound of the flutes at the end
The official video is also unprecedented in the history of ABBA
For the first time, it shows them in the past and retrospective The entire first part (in black and white) is from their youth and beginnings, up to the Eurovision picture
Then comes (in colours) the memorable tour to Australia, with images of the incredible 'ABBAmania'
and for the change of rhythm and the first chorus comes a succession of all the official ABBA videos up to and including 1979
Then comes the new melodic bridge and the image from the beginning is resumed:
ABBA prepared to go out to their last concerts in London 1979
and that second chorus is interpreted by them as their 'ABBAtars'
And here is a symbology:
that scene is like the transition: ABBA is no longer the ones we remember, now we will see them in their ABBAtars recreating their 70s image
And that's how they look now at the Voyage Concerts which opened at the new ABBA Arena in London since May 2022
This official video was released worldwide in a Live Stream transmission that showed ABBA fan meetings simultaneously in various cities around the world: Stockholm, London, Vienna, Berlin, Rejkiavik, New York, São Paulo, etc.
the BBC in London interrupted its usual programming to join the launch of this video at exactly 5:00 p.m. on September 2 (2021)
And for the second song
"Don't shut me down" the lights were turned on with the new images of ABBA Voyage on the main bridge of Sydney at night in Australia
while the images showed many mature ABBA fans crying with emotion to listen again new ABBA songs after almost 40 years
(as I cried from a distance following the live broadcast on UA-cam)
Thank you for your great reaction, with all due respect to all of ABBA's music and history.
See you in the next ABBA video
My best regards from
Buenos Aires, Argentina 🇦🇷
South America.
Go to London and see the jaw dropping Voyage concert !

El regreso de ABBA fue lo mejor que pudo haber pasado, el grupo más grande de la historia y se agradece por haber roto alejamiento 🇵🇾❤️🤗
Yes, the video is fantastic and unique.
Mi grupo favorito desde niña 😍
ABBA MANIA FAN PRESENT
Great reactions ❤

I think this is the hologram version I will check that song thanks my friend
@@ThePaulieShow.
You did it before here in your channel
Me too. I would have preferred to see them as they are now, just like they didn't 'fix' their voices. I know they wanted to promote their hologram concert series, but still
Great reaction bro. Please react to the remaining 8 songs on the Voyage Album
Ok 👌
One of my favorite ABBA songs!
CUIDATE PAULIE. ABBAS REUNION AND COMEBACK IS TRULY MIRACULOUS. AND THEN WE HAVE GREAT LYRICS WHICH ARE SO MEANINGFUL AND INSPIRING.

ILM did a great work on the 3D avatars
Thank you! ❤️❤️❤️ Bennys son made the video .
He's very talented 👏 👌 ❤️
@@ThePaulieShow Yes very❤️
@@ThePaulieShow Yes very❤️
Sorry but that is not correct. Ludvig Andersson is one of the Producer of the ABBA Voyage Show, but the video was made by Film director Baillie Walsh.
Lasse Hallström..
