how nice to see you at the end of the week! with an extraordinary song by ABBA, which has many peculiarities The name of the game (1977) 1) I think it's the first in which each of the girls sings a verse as lead voice 2) the video was recorded at the blonde Agnetha and blonde Björn's home, because Agnetha was very late in her second pregnancy (that's why maybe she's sitting and cared for in the picture) 3) "The name of the game" was released in October 1977, two month before "ABBA The Album" and the movie "ABBA The Movie" It was a bold gamble from ABBA, it opened their horizons and spread beyond pop. I think that "The name of the game" (1977) have some vibs of influences of BEATLES songs like "Penny Lane" (1967) curiosly, "The name of the game" today October 30 (but in 1977) was #1 in UK (4 weeks) and replaced in the #1 for "Mull of Kintyre" by Paul McCartney (ex songwriter of The BEATLES( "The name of the game" is in my opinion a masterpiece one of the Seven Wonders of ABBA (in chronological order): Waterloo S.O.S Dancing Queen The name of the game Chiquitita The winner takes it all Don't shut me down (you could choose each one of these to react) You have fantastic songs in that album to react, ABBA's most versatile: Thank you for the music Take a chance on me "Eagle" of almost 6 minutes that opens the album "Move on" or "Hole in your soul " I hope to see you in more ABBA videos A big hug from Buenos Aires, Argentina 🇦🇷 South America PS: at the time of the official video (1977) the blonde singer Agnetha and the guitarist Björn was married since 1971, with one child in 1973 and in pregnancy of their second child the brunette singer Frida and the bearded keyboardist Benny was engaged and living together since 1969 and married next year 1978
ABBA is one of the greatest pop bands of all time. They were active between 1972 and 1982, but they made a comeback record last year. When they started, they were two couples, but they split up in the end and made some of their best songs after they split. They had loads of hits. I think you'd like 'Knowing me Knowing You', as you liked this one, which is one of my favorites, a true masterpiece.
Thanks girls. It's fun to watch new people discover ABBA. They were two couples from Sweden. The guy's wrote the song's and the girls sang them. Towards the end the songs got sadder and more serious as their marriages ended. "The Winner Takes It All" Deals with divorce and is one of their best. After both couples divorced in the early 80's they just stopped working togather. They never officially broke up though. Last year with them all in their 70's they released a new album after 40 year's. "I Still Have Faith In You" was the first single off "Voyage" it. The song is bittersweet aabout their past and if they still have it in them. The album is a huge seller/hit. ABBA is still in the top 3 or 4 in record sales world wide. If you keep watching you'll sone be fans too.
(Thank you Magnus) Aaaand ....10(!)whole albums at No1.Last one was their comeback lp last year(yeahh!)And Abba fans are so,so happy and proud about it and so grateful.
Anni-Frid, also known as Frida (the redhead) was engaged with Benny (the one with the beard) for 8 years and then got married. Agnetha (the blonde one) and Björn (the one playing the guitar) were married before they became a band and divorced after 8 years. Frida and Benny divorced after 2 years of marriage.
5:44!LOL!!!Ha!Ha!What happened girls?!Frida just kissed her fiance Benny.They had already been a couple since years..In later other videos by other acts we've seen far more daring and hideous things.That kiss was real, lovely and spontaneous.I really enjoyed your reaction.
@@MelsReactions Blonde one Agnetha and Bjorn were already married with a little girl while Agnetha was pregnant again while shooting this video waiting for their 2nd child a boy (S.Peter Christian).That's why she filmed this while sat and never did external takes as the rest 3 of them did.But Frida (red haired) was still engaged to the bearded Benny and finally got married little later than this.
The name ABBA is made up from the members first initials Agnetha , Bjorn , Benny & Ann-Frid . They are 2 married couples Agnetha (blonde girl) & Bjorn and Ann-Frid (brunette) & Benny (with beard) .
The red haired(Anni) was married to the bearded guy. They were 2 married couples performing together. Interesting fact if you didn't know. After their marriage ended Anni went on to marry into Royalty. She married Prince Reuss of Plauen and actually became "Princess Anni-Frid Synni of Reuss, Countess of Plauen.
Great reaction! You both are so beautiful! I'm gay so this is not a come-on -LOL! Both couples were married. Videos back then were raw and unedited. They got a little too personal on that shot for the public to see. We have all done crazy things behind the scenes, so don't let that distract you from the brilliance of this pop masterpiece. Their catalog is EPIC, so keep going. 'Dancing Queen' should be next!
"Abba was made up of two sets of couples. Agnetha Fältskog was married to Björn Ulvaeus and Benny Andersson to Anni-Frid Lyngstad. At the height of Abba's fame both couples divorced, one in 1980 and the other a year later."
for me personally the girls in the group ABBA are serious about their love to their partners but the boys no, they are not serious, might be they were just looking for some fun nothing serious, when finally they come to realise that the girls were leaving them and the group band...
how nice to see you at the end of the week! with an extraordinary song by ABBA, which has many peculiarities
The name of the game (1977)
1) I think it's the first in which each of the girls sings a verse as lead voice
2) the video was recorded at the blonde Agnetha and blonde Björn's home, because Agnetha was very late in her second pregnancy (that's why maybe she's sitting and cared for in the picture)
3) "The name of the game" was released in October 1977, two month before "ABBA The Album" and the movie "ABBA The Movie"
It was a bold gamble from ABBA, it opened their horizons and spread beyond pop.
I think that "The name of the game" (1977)
have some vibs of influences of BEATLES songs like "Penny Lane" (1967)
curiosly, "The name of the game" today October 30 (but in 1977) was #1 in UK (4 weeks) and replaced in the #1 for "Mull of Kintyre" by Paul McCartney (ex songwriter of The BEATLES(
"The name of the game"
is in my opinion a masterpiece
one of the Seven Wonders of ABBA (in chronological order):
Waterloo
S.O.S
Dancing Queen
The name of the game
Chiquitita
The winner takes it all
Don't shut me down
(you could choose each one of these to react)
You have fantastic songs in that album to react, ABBA's most versatile:
Thank you for the music
Take a chance on me
"Eagle" of almost 6 minutes that opens the album
"Move on" or
"Hole in your soul "
I hope to see you in more ABBA videos
A big hug from
Buenos Aires, Argentina 🇦🇷
South America
PS: at the time of the official video (1977)
the blonde singer Agnetha and the guitarist Björn was married since 1971, with one child in 1973 and in pregnancy of their second child
the brunette singer Frida and the bearded keyboardist Benny was engaged and living together since 1969 and married next year 1978

The 2nd biggest selling group in history. Go down the ABBA rabbit hole. You won't be disappointed!
"Abba was made up of two sets of couples. Agnetha Fältskog was married to Björn Ulvaeus and Benny Andersson to Anni-Frid Lyngstad. At the height of Abba's fame both couples divorced, one in 1980 and the other a year later."
That game is Parchesi.
I'd like to hear what you say, put the microphone in the same room! :p
Great reaction. If you liked this by ABBA then check out "Eagle" (the long/extended version). It's on TH-cam - I watch it often.
for me personally the girls in the group ABBA are serious about their love to their partners but the boys no, they are not serious, might be they were just looking for some fun nothing serious, when finally they come to realise that the girls were leaving them and the group band...
