@@Brian-om2hh Björn and Benny met in 1966, and worked together formally composing since 1969. That year is key, since also in 1969, the romantic relationship between Björn and Agnetha begins as well as the relationship between Benny and Frida. Agnetha and Björn married in 1971. ABBA began as a group in 1972 (not yet called as such, but with the 4 of them already recording together). Frida and Benny were always dating, but they did not marry until 1978. In 1980, Björn and Agnetha divorced. Frida and Benny divorced in 1981. The band continued to function as such until 1982. Almost 40 years later, they met in 2018 to make a couple of songs and ended up making a new album, finally released in 2021: 'Voyage'. That same year, the group also announced the "ABBA Voyage" digital concert that will feature digital 'ABBAtars' of the band's original members, in addition to featuring a live band of musicians. The show has been presented since May 2022 (the four attended the avant premiere of the show), in the 'Queen's Park' in London, in a venue built specifically for this purpose. ❤️🇨🇱🤗👍
Chiquitita: the title is spanish, the singers from Sweden and Norway, the lyrics in english and the arrangement is greek. C`mon! Abba is HUGE! Nice reaction.
This was one of the favorite songs of my sweet, late mother. Still can’t listen to it without tears, but there happy tears since I know she is in a much better place, reunited with my dad. Thanks for the memories ❤
in 2021 ABBA made a new album called VOYAGE with fantastic new songs....after 40 years pause......their songs are timeless......other classics are SUPER TROUPER I HAVE A DREAM THE WINNER TAKES IT ALL WATERLOO and so much more......
I'm so glad to see you again with reaction to ABBA several things to say about "Chiquitita" (1979) Chiquitita" means 'little girl' (with affection) in spanish And the melody have a spanish tune, specialy by the acustic guitar But the center is the wonderful piano, like almost all ABBA songs "Chiquitita" is a beautiful song, it has hopeful lyrics, a melody that starts very soft with the blonde Agnetha's solo, then grows and explodes in a powerful chorus; Agnetha & Frida's vocal harmonies are of excellence It allows us to check how excellent singers Agnetha & Frida are and what harmonies of excellence they achieve. It stands out especially when they stretch the monosyllables with great quality and beauty "Chiquitita" was premiered especially for the UNICEF Concert (January 9, 1979, just 45 years ago!) and its royalties are eternal for UNICEF "Chiquitita" was ABBA's greatest success in Latin America, that prompted ABBA to record it in Spanish, and its success was so extraordinary that in the following year ABBA recorded a full album with their best songs entirely in Spanish ("Chiquitita" in Spanish is the biggest ABBA hit in My country Argentina) Chiquitita" is in the Top 3 of all ABBA worldwide biggest hits, with 'Dancing Queen" and "Fernando", and it's a fantastic Masterpiece These official video was filmed in Swizterland 1979 (ABBA goes for a TV Special) It's the only promotional video that ABBA made without Sweden I hope to see you soon in another ABBA song my next suggestion is to "Fernando" (1976) with the brunete singer Frida in lead voice GOD bless you and stay safe My best regards from Buenos Aires, Argentina 🇦🇷 South América and Happy New Year *like an ABBA song from 1980
You REALLY need to listen to a lot more of Abba. There is a reason why they are one of the most successful and popular and meaningful (even today) pop groups that have ever existed. No "teeny boppers" but two married couples that formed the group - and all the problems and pleasures relationships involve. And 40 years after they "ended" they are back in digital avatars and as popular as ever.
How is it you had never heard of ABBA? Probably one of the most successful female bands ever!! one of the first artists to receive the Brit Billion Award (!st in 45 years!) World Wide Fame -19 hits, to live Albums, Seven compilation albums 4 box sets 5 video albums 50 singles and 43 music videos together with umpteen awards world wide together with Royal Honours from Swedens King!
@@shockwavereact An early ABBA ballad with Agnetha on lead I would say "I've been waiting for you is better (IMO) or "My love my life" just for the vocals. But ABBA have so many hits that are more upbeat and well known. So if I could make a suggestion that encapsulates ABBA I would go for "SOS" 1975 TV performance as it is a) a big hit and b) shows their stage presence without the modern choreographed showmanship. A big part of their appeal was their naturalness. .
@@Muckylittleme Alright, I think I have heard SOS so I’ll check out the first two you mentioned, I am sure anything from them would absolutely be amazing.👍🏽💯😊
Chica = girl Chiquita = diminutive form of chica, either used literally or as endearment = little girl or dear girl Chiquitita = double diminutive form of chica = very small girl, dear little girl, or very dear girl
Yeah, it's hard to grasp, given that ABBA never really disappeared. Stage shows and movies, and the popularity in the dance scene. Their best-selling compilation released in the 90s. Another album a few years ago and a high-tech concert now on in London.
My whole life is talking about why and what I love about ABBA and watching other people get it makes me happy 😊
Beautiful songs and lovely ladies in this band and no one will be like them again. I wish they remained in the music industry for ever.
Watch ABBA live Wembley and Australia. They were so perfect together. This song is also available in Spanish as well “Happy New Year” so wonderful.
'Chiquitita' means 'little girl' in spanish...
The royalties from this song were donated to Unicef. To date, more than 4 million dollars in aid are estimated for boys and girls at social risk...
They was 2 couples:
🅰️ Agnetha (blond girl) &
🅱️ Björn (guitar, songwriter) and
🅱️ Benny (piano, songwriter) &
🅰️ Anni-Frid (Frida, the other girl).
The boys are mainly in charge of the lyrics, music and choruses... The girls are wonderful singers, whether together or separately.
BEST ⭐ POP ⭐ BAND ⭐ EVER!

FERNANDO....
This is my all-time favourite ABBA song. So beautiful and uplifting.
It is really really uplifting and beautiful 😍
Yes. You'd probably like this cover by 2 young American sister's th-cam.com/video/TCMBF7A4JPA/w-d-xo.htmlfeature=shared
Such a beautiful song
Yes it is really beautiful
The beautiful sound of a tack piano fits this song perfectly.
I agree 💯
Perfect pop songs, perfectly performed
Absolutely 👍🏽

It has to be said they didn't have pitch correction back then either.
Phenom.!
That’s so true
Before digital recording and production technics.
hey abba also sang this song in spanish became huge hits the latin country
Oh really, this is so beautiful
I'm so glad to see you again with reaction to ABBA

("Chiquitita" in Spanish is the biggest ABBA hit in My country Argentina)
Chiquitita" is in the Top 3 of all ABBA worldwide biggest hits, with 'Dancing Queen" and "Fernando", and it's a fantastic Masterpiece
These official video was filmed in Swizterland 1979 (ABBA goes for a TV Special)
It's the only promotional video that ABBA made without Sweden
I hope to see you soon in another ABBA song
my next suggestion is to
"Fernando" (1976)
with the brunete singer Frida in lead voice
GOD bless you and stay safe
My best regards from
Buenos Aires, Argentina 🇦🇷
South América
and Happy New Year

Among the best bands ever. Pure geniuses.
That’s right
I lived through that time, and yes ABBA was peak Sweden
Wow… great band and music.
all proceeds from this song went to children's aid organizations
That’s so nice of them 👍🏽

She's probably heard their songs but just didn't know which band it was.
@toby9999 Thank you, I actually grew up in Nigeria We didn’t hear much of these western musics over there.
Plus movies, musicals and shows.
Not female, two boys and two girls. The boys wrote the songs and played the instruments and sometimes they also did vocals.
Have a look at the 2 movies based on Abba songs. Mamma Mia and Mamma Mia here we go again.
Okay, I’ll love to check that out.
Fernando is nice song thank yo
all four are awesome\
Okay I’ll check it out
ABBA is a Treasure trove of hits ;-) Try Hasta Manana (Waterloo album)
Absolutely 💯
Unusual choice, but hey.
I like it but not near my top 10 ABBA songs and of course my opinion is the most important.
😉

You must check their song "Dancing queen". 🙂
I already did.
I'm really pleased with your reaction! You're a good listener. Please react to them again - I would love it!
Thank you, I will definitely check out more. I love them
listen with your eyes closed ! you will cry
I was one of the many late 70s rockers that would admit liking ABBA.
Agnetha/blonde😍😝😈
Oh wow… nice one.👍🏽☺️
Wow!!! I like you!!! You are beautiful with such a beautiful smile also!!!😍😍😍😍😘😘😘❤️❤️❤️👍👍👍
Wow, thank you I really appreciate your kind words ☺️🙏
So many great ABBA songs. Try "The Winner Takes It All".
Okay 👍🏽
checkin in...
ABBA WAS SO GREAT. PLEASE REACT TO THIS GREAT SONG- Randy Travis - The Box (Official Music Video)
Okay
They were asked to get back together and perform 100 stadium concerts - the sum on offer $1 billion. They said no.
Wow..
I am old lol
Agneitha Bjorn Benny Anna-Frid ABBA
I wished somebody would reat to Dinah Washington What a difference a day makes!
Chiquitita means in spanish very little girl.
Oh, okay 👍🏽
Chiquitita means little one in Spanish
Oh, nice 😊
Chica = girl
Chiquita = diminutive form of chica, either used literally or as endearment = little girl or dear girl

If angels sang.
Nice react :)
Thank you 🙏

Soz couldn't help it
Hi there, how's it going?
All good, thanks trust you are good too .
It's a pity that as a Swedish band they had to sing in English to receive the fame they did.
Why is that a pity? Their english language songs are all awesome. You make english language sound like a negative.
That applies to most bands. It’s just the way it is. Deal with it.
You do know that Mexicans speak Spanish. 🤦
absolute bullsh*t, there's no way you got to that age and had never heard Abba
Yeah, it's hard to grasp, given that ABBA never really disappeared. Stage shows and movies, and the popularity in the dance scene. Their best-selling compilation released in the 90s. Another album a few years ago and a high-tech concert now on in London.
Why is it BS? She says she grew up in Nigeria and had little exposure to Western music.
