- Standing ovations for the Kyiv Soloists in a benefit concert in support of Ukraine at the Stockholm Concert Hall on march 27th, 2022.
A powerful version of Abbas' Ode to Freedom as a final performed together with Eric Ericson's Chamber Choir and Benny Andersson. With the King and Queen and Ukraine's ambassador in the audience. Touching speeches and standing ovations.
I can't believe they didn't get a U.S. Grammy Award. It just shows you how disconnected the voting members are from the world and what's going on. God bless ABBA.
Its Grammys problem- not ABBA.
ABBA Voyage will stand as one of their best albums
Well, Bad Bunny has 2 Grammys, so we can clearly see what are their standards today. I’m almost glad ABBA never received a single Grammy award.
Who cares?!
Magnificent. Someone did write an ode to freedom that we all can sing.
Truly. They just did. Bravo ABBA for this new beautiful song.
@@francesdlopez6736 I think exactly the same. All of us must have this music at home,to sing and knowing the letter each other in our language. In Portuguese it's very very beautiful. THANK YOU FOR THE MUSIC... THANKS MR. BENNY. PERHAPS ONE DAY MY CITY! FROM LISBON WITH LOVE.
..Vielen Vielen Dank an......Benny Anderson....ein genialer Mann ....meine größte Hochachtung /mein allergrößten Respekt an alle ......auch an die Chormitglieder.....
Yess ABBA did
❤
Simply brilliant. I cannot believe that B&B have anyone on this planet that can outshine their creativity and mastery in so many musical genres. From ABBA to the musicals Chess and Kristina, BAO etc. Yet they remain absolutely humble and down to earth. Truly remarkable in this day and age. Let this be Ukraine's Ode to Freedom.
Ukraine from 2014 violent coup lost its freedom, the US and GB are ruling and grabbing this territory and sacrificed the people to their war against Russia.
This song is a true masterpiece and to see it live must have been amazing and having Benny play the piano truly amazing. And so apt for the people of urkaine and for their freedom
This will go down in history, Long live abba.
~It will probably be adopted as -perhaps Many country’s National Anthem. Perhaps Universal. Nothing ABBA does could Ever surprise me. (Could we get you all to sing it for us? Perhaps even more will listen -and hear it.) ThanQ all.🙏🏽🎶❤️
Oh my Goodness just Stunning ABBA are here to heal the world in so many different ways
thanks for your love and support I'm so happy to have a great fans like you
I'm from Ukraine. I have been to Sweden several times. Great country, great people. Thank you for your support during this difficult time for my country.💛💙

BENNY ANDERSSON AND ABBA FOREVER.
This is so beautiful. Sending love and support to Ukraine from the UK
They never mentioned Ukraine, those were colors of the Swedish flag, nice try though
@@onlyforbrian2 read the description, it was for the Ukraine
@@HistoryRepeatingTMU Why?? It's a murderous, aparthied dictatorship. 22% of the population is ethnic Russian and the Ukrainians treat their dogs better.
My inner world is still shaking from this songs' echo.Hats off!No more words.Just wet eyes.
It's the same with me.
What a beutiful, meaningful and calming peace of music. Only Benny Anderson can create such a magic!
Today, December the 16th...Congratulations, Benny! Thank you for sharing your talent with the world 🎂🥰
Talent/ Charisma Genie......Benny/Björn/.BACH /Händel/ Mozart.....in diese Reihe gehören Sie mit hinein
What a gorgeous day, hearing Ode to freedom. Big hug from Granada, Andalucia❤😊

Best ABBA song ever
Beautiful performance. Beautiful words. Beautiful music. And beautiful acoustics in that hall.
OMG. Amazing footage. Imagine performing an ABBA song with Benny Andersson before the king and queen of Sweden and then getting a standing ovation. Truly beautiful 💛💙
Oh my!First notes... and already I feel my skin and hair electrified!
Wonderful to see this rendition with choir and orchestra. Benny really is the Schubert of our times.
Tolles Lied, und so passend gerade jetzt
Thank you ABBA
lange is es her, da haben sie das Lied SOLDIERS geschrieben... es passt ebenfalls erschreckend gut in diese Zeit....
Absolutely beautiful, lost for words❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
magnificent ! Benny you are a genius (as Björn too).
i am so proud and grateful to be an great Abba Fan since 1976. Every year on the 27th october I remember the concert of them at the Olympia Hall in Munich 1979 of the North American and European Tour. so my sister and I stood before the stage and my beloved Agnetha shook my hand ! I don't wash my right hand for 4 weeks.
God bless the 4 members of Abba.
And god please help the Ukraine for an end of this f ...n' war.
Thanks for sharing this happy memory. And you made me smile with your "don't wash right hand for 4 weeks".
Great ABBA always stunning
@@fcomme5754 Thanks a lot for your warm words - as we sah in germany 😊
So Genius Benny.Schon als Kind,warst du mein Musikalischer Held.Nun,bin ich schon 55....mache bitte weiter so.
Ja genau....genialer ...geht's nicht ....die großen lassen grüßen zB.Mozart/Händel/ Bach/Beethoven....ich denke in diese Reihe gehört er mit hinein....
Thanks for your love and support I'm so happy to have a great fans like you
@@bennyandersson-topic15 habe vor ca.2 Monaten mit einer ehemalige Solistin der Semperoper in Dresden über Benny/ Björn gesprochen...Sie war der gleichen Meinung .....das ihr kleine Mozarts seid....liebe Grüße aus Deutschland/ Mecklenburg-Vorpommern.....
The is is just completely and totally absolutely BRILLIANT!!!!!!!!!!!
My Favorite ABBA song.
маэстро Бенни старина как приятно вас слышать и слушать
An incredibly beautiful piece of music and message. I can imagine how brilliant it sounded live with an orchestra and choir. Thank you ABBA!
I was just listening to the Voyage album today and thinking how sadly perfect and necessary this song is right now, only to find out about this live performance later this evening. How sad all the members of ABBA must be that this song now has a totally new resonance.
An eternal hymn was created!!!
Wonderful! No words to describe it!
Awesome and so profound, it is as if Ode to Freedom was written in preparation for a time which would so tragically soon be upon us.
Has there ever been a POP group with such talent as a group or individually as ABBA,, Metso Soprano, Anni-Frid,,, ,Soprano ,
Agnetha ,,Lyricist, Bjorn and Lastly Composer Benny Andersson.?
Oh so beautiful. Thank you for sharing this. God bless the people of Ukraine
A stunning piece of music and words.
Genius Benny 😊 very beautiful ❤
I cried throughout this rendition of a masterpiece. It is a peerless composition by Benny and Björn.
Let's hang on things that make life worth living fans, only music is our salvation, big loving hug ABBA wonderful musicians that made of our lives a better place, eternal gratitude adorable performers
Beautiful.
So lovely! At a Time when freedom is so important in this world. Wonderful, Benny!❤
Surely this song should be played around the world and be the anthem to peace and love to everyone.
Benny,Benny serdecznie Tobie i swiatu dziekuje ze jestes.Szwecja ma skarb dla swiata.Ode to Freedom
Danke für die schöne Musik in dieser schrecklichen Zeit.
I just spent 6 minutes in tears. Slava 🇺🇦
Me too
Me too and I am going on while reading comments.
Listening again 2024.❤
❤ from USA❤
Simply a masterpiece.
Absolutely beautiful, tears in my eyes especially at this moment , peace to all the world 😪❤️🎶xxx
Wonderful so touching nothing more to say
Benny wrote the music many years ago and with Bjorn's lyrics, they have made a classical masterpiece which will be sung and played by choirs and orchestras for many years to come.
Thanks for your love and support I'm so happy to have a great fans like you
Simply amazing! What a masterpiece 🤯
How beautiful and timely.
Ladies and gentlemen I like to say thank you very much about ABBA voyage album and tour and thank you
This means so much in 2022 :/
Bravo!! Kudos to the very, very great Maestro, Benny Andersson, the Kyiv Soloists & Eric Ericon's Chamber Choir. Benny & Abba have, in fact, proven that they have created an Ode To Freedom truly worth remembering. God bless you, Benny. I've been a big fan since 1975. Sending my sincere love, best wishes & all my daily prayers across the many miles from Sydney, New South Wales, Australia, in total solidarity with the people of the Ukraine. 👍🏻👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Slava Ukraini !! 👍🏻💪💪💪👍🏻🇺🇦🇺🇦
😢🙏🕊🦘🇭🇲🇸🇪💙💛🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦
And thanks to Bjorn as well.
Crying here
HE'S SOOOO COOL. HE AND BJØRN, THE GREATEST WRITERS AND COMPOSERS, THE WORLD HAS EVER SEEN AND HEARD, IN MY OPINION 🤩🤩
Hi Erik.Blissful are their hands and minds who also wrote this epic track.This will be added to their legacy left from them when they won't be here with us anymore.A sacred lil treasure.
@@alexioverdo5225 But their avatars😁digital immortality.
@@shadow-js2hn Well yes, lets hope this to be some kind of consolation for us left behind.
Amen to that true Statement! 👍❤🎶
In meinem Kopf ....gehören sie in eine Reihe....mit Mozart/ Händel/Bach...und all die anderen großen Komponisten u.Schriftsteller...
Your beautiful music radiates in peoples hearts, like a bud beginning to bloom. God bless ABBA.
OMG....Masterpiece.....Best thing ABBA have done.......Ireland.
What an inspiring song that the world needs at this difficult time Ukraine is suffering from. God Bless Ukraine and may all who believe; remember the people there in your prayers! And Thank You ABBA and the Kyiv Soloists who sang your song so beautifully! Amen
Wunderschön, wie alle anderen Songs von ABBA ist auch dieser Song ein Meisterwerk 🤩😊👍🏻. Grüße Marcel aus Deutschland
Thanks for posting. Benny's the best.
Benny og Bjørn ER bare de bedste.......
Thanks for your love and support I'm so happy to have a great fans like you
Ode à la liberté que c'est beau!! Benny vous êtes un artiste compositeur chanteur pianiste etc... bravo les nouvelles chansons du groupe ABBA sont très belles, merci Benny Frida Bjorn Agnetha 😘😘❤❤❤❤
Beautiful masterpiece from ABBA. More actual these days than we can imagine. Best wishes for Sweden from Poland !!
WOW so beautiful
Danke Danke Benny.
And thanks to Bjorn.
Benny you lucky duck! One of the best composers out there
I've always loved ABBA for constantly giving a feel-good vibe in the classics we all know and love. But songs like Ode to Freedom (favourite track from Voyage) and The Winner Takes It All really allow me to appreciate that for every dance and catchy moment, there is real craft, heart and emotion that Bjorn and Benny are able to put into their writing, particularly for an occasion like Ukraine. And to be able to write something like this after 40 years away from ABBA is just extraordinary.
Even if you don't like (or even hate) ABBA, just remember that there is something to appreciate with Bjorn and Benny's music and lyrics, they really are amongst the masters of songwriting. ABBA may now be old as people, but their music never will be.
So very moving, poignant, yet true. I choked up when I saw the colours of the Ukrainian flag draped so elegantly as if to back the message of this song in the most aspirational way 🇺🇦
"Shalom-peace" 🕊🌿
Simply pure beauty and heavenly to me,.
Thanks for your love and support I'm so happy to have a great fans like you
Thank you Mr. BENNY. YOU are so beautiful...👏👏👏GOD BLESS YOU. ,"Thank you for the music 🎵. From LISBON with love.
Such Beauty! This is Joy for the Heart and Soul and humanity! ❤🎶
Send this to Mr Putin immediately!
Absolutely stunningly beautiful, its perfection. My favourite song off the brilliant Voyage album. I wish peace for Ukraine 🇺🇦
Thank you for the music...
I can only crying. This is simply magnificent
Fabulous, needs an extended version..please❤❤

ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL..STUNNING ❤️🌹❤️🌹❤️
Goosebumps! Space time rupture! Benny genius!
Bellisima!! Benny es un verdadero genio, una obra de arte esta cancion!!
Absolutely beautiful
Only ABBA could do something so intelligently poignant and brilliant, without winning a major prize for it.
Symbolic of what it means to transcend the barren consciousness our world has deteriorated into in this saddest of years.
Für mich sind die vier ABBA ,s die "Mozart Band ".....mit dem Benny (kleiner Mozart) am Klavier 🎹 ....
Wonderful and a masterpiece most needed for this and the world wide Situation and Change ✨💖🌊✨
Beautiful
Questo inno alla libertà, ti entra direttamente al cuore! Immensa orchestra 🙌🙌🙌

Absolutely splendid and so poignant! Thank you Benny for this 'ode'. It is truly classic.
as if Björn had known what will be important to sing about in 2022.....
Bjorn is a sensitive man, this song gives me goosebumps!
Simplesmente MARAVILHOSO.
A chaque fois que je l’écoute, les larmes me viennent. Une chanson majeure dans le répertoire mondial. Merci B&B.
Wunderschön und so berührend! Nur wenige schaffen solch ein Lebenswerk und dann noch dieses Album. Danke!
