@@randallchaput9529 no body realy knows how they mixed that, except Michael B Tretow, Abba, and Satan!! LOL That 3rd voice sound was the machine that drove ABBA. IMHO
The world of Abba where they add nuances in their music that make a song like a priceless painting...your open mouthed faces were a picture during that 1! 😀
One of the best examples of “the ABBA sound”. The ladies voices just meld together perfectly. You guys should watch the movie Muriel’s Wedding, which features this song heavily!
Agnetha was influenced by German schlager (and she was kind of popular in Tyskland/Germany). The others not so much though. Some Abba songs sure sound a little schlager, but this song is more along the lines of how a typically Swedish "dans-band" would play to dance around the 1970s.
As much as I liked ABBA back in the 70's and 80's here in Australia we got absolutely POUNDED by ABBA morning, noon and night. It got pretty brutal. There is no doubt Benny and Bjorn could sure write a catchy tune.
This took 6 weeks to chart in UK, it finally did it when ABBA’s record company hired a limousine and had employees dress as a wedding party and drive around London blaring the song out: simpler times! This was an attempted comeback a year after Waterloo success and after So Long failed to chart, I Do x5 wasn’t really that commercial. Melody Maker (music magazine.) said; ‘this song is so bad, it hurts.’ Was a huge hit in Europe and Australia, and top 20 in USA. It kinda found its home in the Mamma Mia! Movie and theatre show. It’s probably not a surprise to hear that it’s a popular wedding song, especially on radio request shows for the happy day. Nice enthusiasm as always guys.
Yes very well spoted.Btw i numbly recall hearing in the net that MM's reviewer who had written this 'So bad it hurts' in a radio interviewor smth about a decade ago,apologizing for being so unfair to them and reconsidering his apreciation doing some justice to ABBA.
NO! It found it's Home in "Muriel's Wedding" when she wanted it played when she came down the aisle...that's when the song first came back into the mainstream, not to hate on the Mamma Mia movies, but they tend to take a lot of credit away from "Muriel's Wedding" and "Priscilla: Queen of the Desert"
I live in Scotland and grew up with all the Abba songs getting played constantly, I know the songs word from word. A good film to watch is Murials Wedding it has all the Abba hits playing through it and it is hilarious really watch the film it's brilliant!!
I was 13 when this came out on the radio. 1975 I hated it. But it only took a couple of years for it to grow on me and now I love it. That 3rd voice is what makes this song magic. 💋💋
I remember having a simialar reaction when I heard this song for the first time. It´s actually a pastische of a the Swedish dance hall music. ABBA does it with such grace and quality, and Probably with a bit of tongue in cheek. I suggest you react to a song from their first album called ”He is your brother” and use the live version from Australia 1977. 👍
This. As a kid at first listens this was like ABBA did surrendered to the oldish trend so prevalent on the Eurovision participants at the 70s. Grandma´s ABBA version in my young ears, a contradiction to what I was expecting to be associated with ABBA and what I was liking about them.
This song is a bigger hit in the USA than in the UK. Hit number 15 in billboard hot 100, while only hitting #38 in the UK singles chart. Usually its the uk that is giving abba their biggest hits compared to the US
@@mikesmithson6805 Well in the original Aussie track listing of ABBA Gold they had excluded TFTM and a couple more and had included 'I DO''(N01 hit single there) as well as Ring Ring and esp ROCK ME which was also a domestic hit single Downunder.
One day when I came home from school my dad had this on H i g h volume at home. 😝 This is their "Swedish Danceband song", saxophones, wink wink and all.
Hallo! Next one might you try Hi is your brother. Live from Australia 1977. And why don´t you try one of the documentries from BBC. I really dig your reactions! 🥰
Love you guys! So nice to see the younger generation enjoying and appreciating ABBA! Some of your insight and music knowledge is good to hear too giving me a different perspective on music I have adored for many years! Are you two a couple?? ;)
First ABBA song that I remember hearing back in the 70's. I liked it at the time but I appreciate it more now (as the rest of their songs). Great group!
dearest Marissa and Tyler, so nice to see you again with more ABBA After the extraordinary success with "Waterloo" it took a long time for ABBA to ratify this success and demonstrate that the victory at Eurovision was not going to be a lucky and isolated success. "I do I do I do I do I do" (1975) was one of the songs that they tried this song is a beautiful melody, I think it reminds of the 50s, the voices and harmonies of the girls, the blonde Agnetha & and the brunette Frida are perfect, is the magic of the 'third voice'...the song leaves a happy feeling, is a beautiful lovesong in UK it did not enter the Top 30 but the surprise was in Australia, which gave them their first #1 there (3 weeks) follow by "Mamma Mía" & "S.O.S " with two another #1 consecutives (all three #1 in a row, in 14 consecutives weeks) in U.K. when seeing that event they published "S.O.S." and picks #6 and in U.S. they first edited "S.O.S." and reached #15 on Billboard, follow by "I do I do I do I do I do" with another #15 these is because ABBA have different company records in each countries, and each company decide wich song was released that's why the chronology was different: Europe: I do (x5)/ S.O.S./ Mamma Mía U.S.: S.O.S./ I do (x5)/ Mamma Mía Australia: I do (x5)/ Mamma Mía/ S.O.S. and then the ABBA's series of global successes will already be continuous between 1975/1982 in April 1975 ABBA filmed four videos in only two days to promote their songs and music all over the world these four videos was: S.O.S. (recorded in August 1974) Mamma Mía I do I do I do I do I do Bang a Boomerang (the only that wasn't single) That is why my next suggestion could be: "So long" (1974) that have live performance in Top of the Pops at UK , or energetic performance in a TV special "Made in Sweden" 1976 It's one of the great songs that haven't success as a single after "Waterloo" See you later in next videos I wish You a great week Best regards from Buenos Aires, Argentina 🇦🇷 South America
You're both right about this being a hidden gem -- it struggled (comparatively) in charts. As for YT views, 24 million is a lot for anyone else but nothing for ABBA!
Number 15 in the USA guys ...the only song that did better in the USA than it did in the UK. ... and number 1 in a number of countries... there is an extra verse which I think adds to the song IMO. Its like a joyous rousing chorus all the way through. 🙃😉
The song is very much in the tradition of European Schlager music. The sax influence probably came from the American orchestra leader, Billy Vaughn, which has many European hits in the 50-60's featuring lots of saxophone. Marissa would have heard it murdered by Pierce Brosnan in the Mamma Mia film.
Check out their song "So Long" the Swedish export version. "If it wasn't for the nights " (Recorded in Japan version. And "Rock Me" with Byorn singing lead.
This was a major hit in Brasil, through the years since its launch. I remember it played all the time in countryside MW radios in late seventies (I was just a little kid back then)
10 out of 10! Truly a hidden gem. Eternal song. Here is a great small film from 1975, Made in Sweden For Export, with ABBA: ua-cam.com/video/J5ndJ96gurc/v-deo.html Honey, Honey and Hasta Manana next suggestions. Also Why Did It Have To Be Me from the Arrival album.
If you like these german schlager or swedish dansband influenced songs, you could try "Why Did It Have To Be Me". Live in Australia of course. It’s fire, or should I say Frida is on fire…
ABBA's self-titled 3rd album is littered with ear candy: "SOS", "So Long", "Mamma Mia", "I Do x 5", "Bang-A-Boomerang", "I've Been Waiting For You". Don't miss Benny's keyboard wizzardry on the genius instrumental "Intermezzo No. 1". This is where they found their sound. Two couples in love, in bliss, and musical ecstacy.
Love your reaction. This is one of my absolute favorite ABBA songs, but for some reason it was not one of their biggest hits. Glad you seem to love it too!
Are you kidding? Finally someone else realizes how much talent ABBA really had. OMG Agnetha & Frida perfected harmony singing like no other band that I am aware of. Absolutely beautiful women with equally beautiful voices in perfect sync. There has never been a band quite like ABBA before or since their existence!
Hard to choose, but this is probably my favorite ABBA recording! Remember it well - back in the day when being young was fun and no harm done! So many great memories.
The 'picnic' version of 'I do, I do, I do, I do, I do, I do' - 'Made in Sweden for Export' - tells a little story. Agnetha and Frida, both to camera, serenade you - tacitly serenading Benny and Bjorn - in a flower meadow in the summer sunshine. Beautiful. There's also a silly bit with the saxophone instrumental as there is a group of saxophonists all standing, rhythmically swaying to-and-fro and doing their little piece in the middle of the meadow.
Yeah, on seventies vinyl this sounds like it was recorded in the 1950's , it really does. It took a comic turn in the movie Murial's Wedding. Thanks for the video sweet peeps .
This moved me so much when my mum passed. As she declined, she loved to be alone with her memories in the twilight. The ticking in my view was the passage of time.
Josh yr so camp ! 😄😉🙂 Love the way you get into it true abba style they are on another level of brilliance..good work on this ..and you feed of your friend ..x 🙂😉
A lot of influences from the swedish "Dance music for grown ups " that was popular in the seventies and on to the nineties in Sweden with a lot of Saxophones in it.
one of the most "dissed" ABBA songs and thus maybe one of their most underrated. It was a big flop in the UK and I guess that's the reason why... but it was a big hit in continental Europe and hit it big time in Australia, which lead to the ABBA craze down under.. actually my mum's favorite... it had some nostalgic schlager vibes and that's why it was ignored in the UK.... in the US it was released only after SOS and Mamma Mia in 1976 and was a top20 hit... it is prominently featured in the Mamma Mia musical as the "wedding" song and got it's place... but it's not on ABBA Gold...
I am Abba's number one fan. Here is my recommended list to check out from Abba: 1. Suzy Hang Around 2. Watch Out 3. Man in the middle 4. Ring ring 5. Slipping through my fingers 6. Cassandra 7. Why did it have to be m3 8. Rock and Roll Band 9. I'm just a girl 10. The Day Before you Came Let me know what you think 🙂
If you loved IDIDIDIDID, if you haven't already seen it, I strongly recommend you watch - and maybe do a reaction to, if you are into doing movie reactions - a brilliant little Aussie movie called Muriel's Wedding. It's about a possibly neurodivergent social misfit, a young woman who comforts herself by listening to the music of Abba and dreaming of her future wedding day, even though she's never actually had a date. Great story and script - you'll find yourself quoting some of the lines forever after. Toni Collette and Rachel Griffiths star in it and the whole cast give memorable performances. You'll laugh, you'll cry...
Thanks, Marissa! Thanks, Tyler! 🔔 The first time I ever heard this one was in MURIEL'S WEDDING (1994), a must-see for any ABBA enthusiast. #TylerCreatesContent #IDoIDoIDoIDoIDo #ABBA
Thanks for the reaction, this is one of muy favorites songs from Abba, please react to Dum Dum Diddle, ua-cam.com/video/JQyjeZvn3HQ/v-deo.html , it's a very nice song, similar to Bang Boomerang, but calmer and more relaxing, the main voice Here is Frida, although we know that the beautiful Agnetha is the main voice in most of the ABBA songs.
It's awesome to watch a reaction like yours. For us that have heard this song over the decades, we may take it for granted, but it is indeed a great one. If you haven't yet, go see the Mamma Mia musical (or DVD) and report back to us your review.
When your done with your A8BA journey you should start the solo careers of Agnetha & Frida. And Marissa would probably love Benny Andersson’s solo work Nov 89 .. etc..And the entire Musical Chess written by Benny, Bjorn And Tim Rice.
ABBA Wishlist for the Best reAction duo. "Dissillution", "Lovers(live a little longer), "Pick a ball of cotton", 'Sitting in a Palmtree" and "My Mama Said" . All With different things making them unique
Please react to intermezzo number 1!also the midnight special, pick a bale of cotton, on top of old smokey medley all from their self titled 3rd album!
I reckon there's very few ABBA songs that you guys would like more than I do, but this would have to be one of them .. I do enjoy it, but for me it's a long way down on my ABBA rankings list .. It's smooth and sweet, but just doesn't get me that excited to hear it .. But I understand that millions will disagree, and I'm very happy to see that you've found another ABBA song you love .. Cheers, Wayne
Abbas Gonna Sing You My Love Song, Disillusion & Pick A Bale Of Cotton/On Top Of Old Smokey/Midnight Special Medley in future please, enjoying your Abba Journey..
coment some of the live tunes from ABBA Live tour 1979 - Live at Webley Arena in London - "Does your "Mother Know " and " Hole In Your Soul " // ua-cam.com/video/JEyYTANSPj4/v-deo.html "Summernight City " // ua-cam.com/video/dlkT3hNO2Lg/v-deo.html and many more ( even better than the studio versions
Check out ABBAs 1st recorded single " Hej gamle man from 1970. It's in Swedish before they learned English. I don't think today's mainstream music lovers possess the capacity to enjoy a song that is sung in a foreign language. But I think you two guys can't appreciate it.
Not really hidden gem at time. I was in high school at this time, in US a long lag after Waterloo was big, then SOS was finally another hit. Then very soon Mama Mia and I Do ..... the last two being very big at almost same time - would hear just minutes apart on radio.
Listen up! Toss out your itinerary and react to Intermezzo #1. Your inner band geeks will be clutching their pearls and Tyler will get keyboard burns on his fingertips from hitting the pause button so many times. It was recorded around the same time as I Do x 5 and appears on the same self titled album. One of the few songs that gives these Swedish nerds some street cred. It’s a glamorous butt kicker with an urgency that will leave you a burnout of breathe

Perfect wedding song.
Give Hasta Mañana a spin. Another fine example of early ABBA.
The song that sealed my fate as a life long ABBA fan. Both girls on joint lead vocals.
Both Agnetha and Frida are taking the lead together throughout the whole song 😄. They way they filmed it tricks it.
Basically agree, but at points one would be mixed above the other, kind of back and forth just like they noticed.

React to "Why Did It Have To Be Me" (From The Move: Live In Australia 1977)

First ABBA song that I remember hearing back in the 70's. I liked it at the time but I appreciate it more now (as the rest of their songs). Great group!
dearest Marissa and Tyler,
so nice to see you again with more ABBA
After the extraordinary success with "Waterloo" it took a long time for ABBA to ratify this success and demonstrate that the victory at Eurovision was not going to be a lucky and isolated success.
"I do I do I do I do I do" (1975)
was one of the songs that they tried
this song is a beautiful melody, I think it reminds of the 50s, the voices and harmonies of the girls, the blonde Agnetha & and the brunette Frida are perfect, is the magic of the 'third voice'...the song leaves a happy feeling, is a beautiful lovesong
in UK it did not enter the Top 30
but the surprise was in Australia,
which gave them their first #1 there (3 weeks)
follow by "Mamma Mía" & "S.O.S "
with two another #1 consecutives (all three #1 in a row, in 14 consecutives weeks)
in U.K. when seeing that event they published "S.O.S." and picks #6
and in U.S. they first edited "S.O.S." and reached #15 on Billboard, follow by "I do I do I do I do I do" with another #15
these is because ABBA have different company records in each countries, and each company decide wich song was released
that's why the chronology was different:
Europe: I do (x5)/ S.O.S./ Mamma Mía
U.S.: S.O.S./ I do (x5)/ Mamma Mía
Australia: I do (x5)/ Mamma Mía/ S.O.S.
and then the ABBA's series of global successes will already be continuous between 1975/1982
in April 1975 ABBA filmed four videos in only two days to promote their songs and music all over the world
these four videos was:
S.O.S. (recorded in August 1974)
Mamma Mía
I do I do I do I do I do
Bang a Boomerang (the only that wasn't single)
That is why my next suggestion could be:
"So long" (1974) that have live performance in Top of the Pops at UK , or energetic performance in a TV special "Made in Sweden" 1976
It's one of the great songs that haven't success as a single after "Waterloo"
See you later in next videos
I wish You a great week

A lot of influences from the swedish "Dance music for grown ups " that was popular in the seventies and on to the nineties in Sweden with a lot of Saxophones in it.
It's one of the few Abba songs thar did better in America than it it did in Britain. It reached 15 I America. I love Abba..

Great story and script - you'll find yourself quoting some of the lines forever after. Toni Collette and Rachel Griffiths star in it and the whole cast give memorable performances. You'll laugh, you'll cry...
Thanks, Marissa! Thanks, Tyler! 🔔 The first time I ever heard this one was in MURIEL'S WEDDING (1994), a must-see for any ABBA enthusiast. #TylerCreatesContent #IDoIDoIDoIDoIDo #ABBA
Can't believe you haven't reacted to this yet! 😍 You need to watch the Mamma Mia movie btw 🙌
Muito bom !!! Sou fã do ABBA.
Thanks for the reaction, this is one of muy favorites songs from Abba, please react to Dum Dum Diddle, ua-cam.com/video/JQyjeZvn3HQ/v-deo.html , it's a very nice song, similar to Bang Boomerang, but calmer and more relaxing, the main voice Here is Frida, although we know that the beautiful Agnetha is the main voice in most of the ABBA songs.
All of ABBA's songs are great
Sounds like swedish dance band music (only scandinavians will understand).
really nice love ABBA song
It's awesome to watch a reaction like yours. For us that have heard this song over the decades, we may take it for granted, but it is indeed a great one. If you haven't yet, go see the Mamma Mia musical (or DVD) and report back to us your review.
When your done with your A8BA journey you should start the solo careers of Agnetha & Frida. And Marissa would probably love Benny Andersson’s solo work Nov 89 .. etc..And the entire Musical Chess written by Benny, Bjorn And Tim Rice.
Sadly, the ABBA sax player, Ulf Andersson, just passed away this week. He played on several ABBA records. Just listen for the Saxophone.
Now go listen to some of their GOOD stuff, kids. :)
As a swede, to me it sounds alot like swedish "dansbands" music.
Really nice vocals in this one.
This is so super - melodic
The sax style was inspired by your Billy Vaughn Orchestra from the sixties
"Gonna Sing You My Lovesong" is more of a hidden lovesong gem by ABBA than this one. 😍
It is like we men, are falling in love with Agnetta and Anni Fried when they sing "I do I do I do..."
Reaction from both of you, If It Wasn't For The Nights Japan version
I recommed the song " cause are you young " by c.c.catch
ABBA Wishlist for the Best reAction duo. "Dissillution", "Lovers(live a little longer), "Pick a ball of cotton", 'Sitting in a Palmtree" and "My Mama Said" .
All With different things making them unique
Please react to intermezzo number 1!also the midnight special, pick a bale of cotton, on top of old smokey medley all from their self titled 3rd album!
Rare small unseen footage of this clip got finally exposed to their 'FAITH' video in 2021'I do...' was also feauterd in the MM theatrical and movie.
I reckon there's very few ABBA songs that you guys would like more than I do, but this would have to be one of them .. I do enjoy it, but for me it's a long way down on my ABBA rankings list .. It's smooth and sweet, but just doesn't get me that excited to hear it .. But I understand that millions will disagree, and I'm very happy to see that you've found another ABBA song you love .. Cheers, Wayne
Too schmaltzy for some
@@mikesmithson6805 Yes, there's definitely an element of that to it.
🤣👍🍾🥳
This is a old hit from 1970th -80th
Abbas Gonna Sing You My Love Song, Disillusion & Pick A Bale Of Cotton/On Top Of Old Smokey/Midnight Special Medley in future please, enjoying your Abba Journey..
coment some of the live tunes from ABBA Live tour 1979 - Live at Webley Arena in London - "Does your "Mother Know " and " Hole In Your Soul " // ua-cam.com/video/JEyYTANSPj4/v-deo.html "Summernight City " // ua-cam.com/video/dlkT3hNO2Lg/v-deo.html and many more ( even better than the studio versions
Check out ABBAs 1st recorded single " Hej gamle man from 1970. It's in Swedish before they learned English. I don't think today's mainstream music lovers possess the capacity to enjoy a song that is sung in a foreign language. But I think you two guys can't appreciate it.
Not really hidden gem at time. I was in high school at this time, in US a long lag after Waterloo was big, then SOS was finally another hit. Then very soon Mama Mia and I Do ..... the last two being very big at almost same time - would hear just minutes apart on radio.
Do dream world I don't think you've done that yet
Redo, Redo, Redo, Redo, Redo
Песня о любви. Мальченка не понимает,ему еще не объяснили,что такое происходит в жизни...
Listen up! Toss out your itinerary and react to Intermezzo #1. Your inner band geeks will be clutching their pearls and Tyler will get keyboard burns on his fingertips from hitting the pause button so many times. It was recorded around the same time as I Do x 5 and appears on the same self titled album. One of the few songs that gives these Swedish nerds some street cred. It’s a glamorous butt kicker with an urgency that will leave you a burnout of breathe
Have you heard “Silly Love Songs” by Paul McCartney yet? That’s a simple love song for you. 😉
