Hello my friends so happy to see you in our ABBA Journay "Head over heels" (1981) It's a very good song (8 pts) unfairly despised or relegated The oficial video is one of ABBA's most creative; and the most funniest, with "Bang a Boomerang" (1975), "When I kissed the teacher" (1976) and "Take a chance on me" (1978) it could be a sequence of "Money money money" Frida is excellent in her performance, while Agnetha accompanies the narration of the story with mischievous winks It shows the ABBA members mixed, as a ex couples: Frida with Björn in the street scenes Agnetha with Benny on the piano The song has the typical contrasts that ABBA exploits so well: a soft opening melody with a sweet solo by Agnetha, then moving on to a powerful chorus with one of the best and most beautiful harmonies by Agnetha and Frida In my opinion it is one of the best songs on the album "The Visitors" It was #25 in the UK, a great brand for any band or singer, but it was not what ABBA expected, or what was expected of ABBA (for me it deserved to be Top 10) And maybe could be an influence of tango in their melody, but not exactly (I'm from Buenos Aires, tango city) I see you in next ABBA vídeo My best regards from Buenos Aires Argentina South America
Yes... this song is a kind of "French tango" (with added inevitable elements specific to Benny's style - classical music (and in this case no, but otherwise yes - traditional folk Scandinavian melos (hm, old Germanic Slovenian) Dum, dum, diddle, 1976; for example )) It's a shame that after this album, we don't know how and in what direction this original unique abba style would continue to develop. In 1982, abba disbanded But I know that this style in music was later used by many authors for their works (especially in pop music here in our country, in ex-Yugoslavia, for example)
Newly divorced Anni-Frid has a "screw you" hairstyle.. and it is clear how the girls have acquired clear own identities as individuals now. And if you look closely, it's actually a young film director Lasse Hallström she runs into on the street there at 2:08.. the guy who made all their videos.
From what we gather from ABBA historian Carl Magnus Palm’s latest book, it was not the easiest or most fun song to record. Agnetha just seemed totally over it and wanted to move on. And fun fact, the first three words in the first verse ‘I Have A…’ were all recorded separately and spliced together!
As with some other tracks on The Visitors, I find ABBA reverting to formula and one they could of written in their sleep. Not a fan of the high pitched squealing keyboard sounds and the girls sounding rather thin in the higher register which dominates the chorus parts. The song has no warmth to it. It's mostly a lot of screeching.
Love ❤ Frida!...
and of course i like this video!

(Björn is hilarius...😅 especially at the end)

50 years will pass and people will continue to be surprised by ABBA's music, They are voices of ANGELS ❤❤❤
Hello my friends
so happy to see you in our ABBA Journay
"Head over heels" (1981)
It's a very good song (8 pts)
unfairly despised or relegated
The oficial video is one of ABBA's most creative;
and the most funniest, with "Bang a Boomerang" (1975),
"When I kissed the teacher" (1976) and "Take a chance on me" (1978)
it could be a sequence of "Money money money"
Frida is excellent in her performance,
while Agnetha accompanies the narration of the story with mischievous winks
It shows the ABBA members mixed, as a ex couples:
Frida with Björn in the street scenes
Agnetha with Benny on the piano
The song has the typical contrasts that ABBA exploits so well:
a soft opening melody with a sweet solo by Agnetha,
then moving on to a powerful chorus
with one of the best and most beautiful harmonies by Agnetha and Frida
In my opinion it is one of the best songs on the album "The Visitors"
It was #25 in the UK, a great brand for any band or singer,
but it was not what ABBA expected, or what was expected of ABBA
(for me it deserved to be Top 10)
And maybe could be an influence of tango in their melody, but not exactly
(I'm from Buenos Aires, tango city)
I see you in next ABBA vídeo
My best regards from
Buenos Aires Argentina

The Visitors Album was very centered of Broadway type theatrical sounding music.
Great reaction, Fellas,have not heard this,for years, forgotten about it ,nice...thanks again, Todd from Ohio....
Fun song as is the fashion of early 80's. 😄The song is in major, but ends in minor.
