    ABBA is Swedish. 1972 by Agnetha Fältskog, Björn Ulvaeus, Benny Andersson, and Anni-Frid Lyngstad. The group's name is an acronym of the first letters of their first names. they have a whole list of songs. and even a stage play and a movie that was made from and around their songs, " mama mia" which was a title of one of their songs as well. ABBA's songs are classified as "POP"

    ABBA was a huge group in the 1970's. They broke up in 1982 after both couples divorced. They had numerous hit songs worldwide with over 380 million records sold. The tony award winning play Mama Mia, was based on the music of ABBA and included ABBA songs, including the song Mama Mia. Other famous ABBA songs in the play were Dancing Queen, Waterloo, Money, Money, Money, Gimme, Gimme, Gimme , Voulez-Vous, SOS, The Winner Takes It All, Super Trooper, Thank You For The Music, and many others. The play was made into 2 movies with a 3rd coming out.. They had said they would never reunite, but suddenly, in 2021. they announced they were putting out new recordings almost 40 years later. They released 2 of ten new songs last month."I Still Have Faith In You" and "Don't Shut me Down". They are all in their 70's now. ABBA fans are of course going crazy as this legendary band is back together.

    Remember that when ABBA was recording and touring things like AutoTune and vocal correction were unknown - what you hear is pure talent, and nothing short of genius-level at that (I used to be a touring musician as well, having made 3 records and I am completely in awe of ABBA's musicality and ability to write a perfect song as well; they're the real deal).

    The studio versions are the best, because they are foremost a studio group and produced the best sounding material in the day (and still sound fresh). 22 worldhits from 1974 to 1982. second best selling act in history. Their albums are full of lesser-known songs that could also have been hits. And every song is completely different in style and sound but completely recognizable as ABBA. They are a pop phenomenon!

    remember
    ABBA is a Swedish pop group recording between 1972/1982
    and now return to studio in 2017 After 35 years!
    ABBA is an acronim with initials of their first names
    Agnetha (71) blonde soprano singer
    Benny (74) pianist songwriter
    Björn (76) guitarist songwriter
    Anni Frid (75) brunette mezzo soprano singer
    In the begin They was two couples too, but both couples split:
    Agnetha & Björn at end 1978
    Anni Frid & Benny at begin 1981
    so They continue as a group until the end of 1982,
    and comes back now, with two new songs in last September 2 , and a new álbum to be released in next November 5!

    I'mso glad to see you react my favorite ABBA song
    "S.O.S." has a story
    It was one of Their first recordings after the greatest success of "Waterloo" in Eurovisión, just four months later, in August 1974
    But it waited almost a year for its release, in June 1975 at Sweden, September 1975 at UK and US
    "Waterloo" needed another theme to confirm the trend and it was not an isolated success or a stroke of luck
    ABBA's next three elections failed to stand out
    Until finally "S.O.S." have your chance to be a single, and broke the drought, reaching #6 in the U.K. and #15 in the U.S. being Their second hit in both countries at the same time, and six #1 and more Top 10 in several countries of all continents
    and after these, ABBA had 18 Top 10 consecutives in UK between 1975/1982, for example:
    Mamma Mía, Fernando, Dancing Queen, Take a chance con me, Chiquitita, etc
    "S.O.S." in less than 200 seconds is a gem, a masterpiece!
    The transitions from the dramatic opening (a dingy piano and a cracking Agnetha voice) to a powerful rock beat with catchy pop chorus in the middle are brilliant.
    ABBA marked an era in many ways One was the musical leadership of its beautiful and lofty female vocalists as the center of attention
    Another was the use of contrasts, such as sad lyrics with catchy melodies and harmonies
    And their recording tecnique "wall of sound" gives ABBA more powerfull
    ABBA, as in its time BEATLES, left an unforgettable mark on several generations
    It is good music that lasts and stays alive and well.
    Thank you very much for your honesty and sensitive in your reaction I hope to see you in another video to ABBA
    I suggest you their first worldwide hit: "Waterloo", the live perfomance in Eurovision, when ABBA win and begin your fame as a group:

    Abba individually had success in Sweden. Four talented musicians met - and married - and wrote songs and music that while seemingly simple and catchy, were technically very complex and clever, filled with hooks that captured an international audience. The wrote about life and love and loss - from mature people who knew exactly what they were talking about. The music did become darker and more complex towards the end - and it shows in the lyrics. Abba were phenomenal in all senses of the word - and tends to grown on you, more and more with time. I loved being a teenager in the 70's!

    When my parents were on a trip to Sweden she was amazed at all the Americans who worked in restaurants and such. Then she finally asked one where they were from. When they responded the town they were in, she was shocked. She said the server thought the reason they all had “American” accents has something to do with how easy it is for Swedish speakers to speak the sounds of English, but also because they consume a lot of American music, tv, and movies, and can mimic them. ABBA and Ace of Base both sang with very little accent, so maybe this Swedish server was on to something.

    This isn't the 1975 official video with the glorious studio version where the iconic mini moog synthesizer was used to bridge the verses to the chorus..But still its good.The ultimate live version is the famous one filmed during their 1977 Australian tour from 'ABBA THE MOVIE'.That was electric.So better give it a 2nd try at least privately.This is a significant and very important song in the history of Abba's career as well as in the recorded modern pop music.Rockers such as Pete Towensent(The Who),John Lennon,and punkers The Sex Pistols, have praised- Pop band- Abba for this masterpiece amongst others.With the sad exception of the USA,ABBA was -and still is-really big deal in the rest of the world.A culture phenomenon.From Europe and South Africa to Australia and Latin American countries where they had even recorded a whole album in Spanish languague..They have sold more than 400million records and still heading. Second best selling band in the history of recorded music right after the Beatles.And not American or English but Swedish outsiders.Pretty hard to be acceptable from 'the others' back then.John Frusciante with the Red Hot Chilly Peppers often did live cover to this song while being on tour.CHER has also covered this in her 2018 ABBA tribute album"DancingQueen.'

    The song is about a relationship in danger. She has not given up on it yet. She is just noticing that things are not the same as the beginning. (Sound familiar). It is not about someone obsessed with a failed relationship. It is someone hoping that the "rough patch" can be overcome. Thanks for your reaction.

    Agnetha Fältskog sang this in her native Swedish language, on her solo album "Elva kvinnor i ett hus". I like Agnetha´s solo version better, because it is the original, before they recorded it in English, as a foursome (ABBA), for their 3rd and self-titled album.
    This song is what "solidified" them as pop superstars, after winning the Eurovision Song Contest, held in Brighton, England (1974), with "Waterloo".

This is a very good live clip, however the original record production highlights explosive crashing chorus with the girls elevated harmonies combined with electric guitar. The song is a blend of classical, pop, rock....this tune hooked me on ABBA in 1975. The band went their separate ways in 1982. After almost 40 years the group has reunited and produced a full new album VOYAGE, out Nov.5th 2021. Two new songs released now.

Both marriages failed and they broke up while right at the top. They are still huge around the world. Just so you know they just released new music last month after not working together for 40 years.

    You need the studioversion, Despite the weak version..
    To me SOS is one of the absolute favs (still have the original single ♥ ) since it was released (i was around 9) it's been stuck in my spine. "it used to be so nice, it used to be so good" Then when the piano "gathering" them all with the did-de-li-de-did-de-li
    (that part is so perfected and clean in execution) the pace he keeps is perfect for "waterfalls"
    , then the others comes along perfectly abrupt with the hook and singin just to stumble in to
    the catchy refrain...
    Typical Abba is Benny's splendid short piano inputs, hardly not noticed but infact make the songs somehow, here ...or in the studioversion they are many and not shy to show themselves : )

Bennie and Biorn were overshadowed but both were fangtastic songwriters and wrote many million sellers and went on to write musicals . They have just got together again recently to do some new songs for charity .they all must be in their 70s .

He did a lot of the song writing, but she took the lead in a lot of his songs. They seemed to specialize in sad love songs. Their song "Winner Takes it all" is a post marriage tune he wrote and she sang lead in.
