ABBA is one of the most iconic and successful pop groups of all time, known for their catchy melodies, harmonized vocals, and timeless appeal. ABBA was formed in Stockholm, Sweden, in 1972. The group consisted of two couples: 1. Agnetha Fältskog - Vocalist. 2. Björn Ulvaeus - Guitarist and songwriter. 3. Benny Andersson - Keyboardist and songwriter. 4. Anni-Frid (Frida) Lyngstad - Vocalist. The group’s name, ABBA, is an acronym of the members’ first initials. Here are some of their most iconic songs: 1. “Dancing Queen” (1976) • A disco anthem, “Dancing Queen” became ABBA’s signature song. It topped the charts worldwide, including the U.S. Billboard Hot 100. 2. “Waterloo” (1974) • Their Eurovision-winning track, this infectious pop tune was their first major international hit. 3. “Mamma Mia” (1975) • Known for its playful lyrics and catchy chorus, “Mamma Mia” remains one of ABBA’s most beloved songs. 4. “Take a Chance on Me” (1978) • This upbeat track highlights their harmonies and became a major hit across Europe and the U.S. 5. “Fernando” (1976) • A ballad with a folk-inspired melody, “Fernando” is one of ABBA’s best-selling singles. 6. “The Winner Takes It All” (1980) • A deeply emotional ballad, it’s often interpreted as reflecting the end of Agnetha and Björn’s marriage. 7. “Chiquitita” (1979) • A heartfelt ballad with a Latin-inspired rhythm, it became a favorite among fans. 8. “Super Trouper” (1980) • A celebration of performing despite personal struggles, this song topped the UK charts. 9. “Gimme! Gimme! Gimme! (A Man After Midnight)” (1979) • A disco hit that showcased ABBA’s ability to dominate the dance floors. 10. “Knowing Me, Knowing You” (1977) • A melancholic yet infectious song about heartbreak and moving on. ABBA has sold over 400 million records worldwide, making them one of the best-selling music acts in history.
"Take a chance on me" (1978) is one of their best ABBA hits in all the world, the most selling song of ABBA in U.S. (more than Dancing Queen), #3 in Billboard U.S. one of their four Top10 in US : #6 Waterloo (1974) #1 Dancing Queen (1977) #3 Take a chance on me (1978) #8 The winner takes it all (1981) This is one of few song than the vocals are more extensive than the music (They begin 'a capela' and singing at the end) the blonde singer Agnetha is the lead vocal in the solo verses, her voice is so powerful, in perfect armonies and chorus with the brunette Frida in co-leads vocal (and the boys in back voices singing repetitive the frase 'take a chance, chance') Agnetha & Anni Frid have fantastic voices and harmonies together Agnetha is soprano Anni Frid 'Frida' is mezzo soprano and together made a 'third voice' the guitarist Björn got the idea while jogging, by the sound of the footsteps he interpreted t-k-t t-kt and adapted it to "take a chance, chance, take a chance", so the song was born Although it is a disco europop, it's like a constant and happy march, captivating, cloying, addictive I wish you a greatest weekend My best regards from Buenos Aires, Argentina 🇦🇷 South AmericaA
ABBA is the second most successful band ever with more than 50 fantastic songs like this one......they worked together from 1973-1982 ....and their comeback came 2021 with the fantastic new album VOYAGE.....from the older songs CHIQUITITA - SUPER TROUPER -DANCING QUEEN - THE WINNER TAKES IT ALL - THE DAY BEFORE YOU CAME - MAMMA MIA - FERNANDO - WATERLOO - WHEN ALL IS SAID AND DONE - EAGLE.......and after that....the whole new album ....you will love it explore these songs of this fantastic group ....BOTH men create their music Benny the melodies, Björn the text
"Mamma Mia" was first a stage play. Much later it was produced as a movie with a part two. The songs in the movie were part of the plot of the movie with characters singing the songs as a musical. I experienced ABBA songs for the first time on the radio and in studio albums. Other pop songs like "Take A Chance on Me" "Mamma Mia" "Waterloo" "Gimmie, Gimmie, Gimmie" "Angeleyes" Thoughtful type songs: "Move On" "The Eagle" "I Wonder" (This is on the "Mamma Mia 2" soundtrack but does not appear in the movie.) "I Have A Dream" "The Piper" "The Winner Takes It All" "Fernando"
The musical Mamma Mia! was created by British playwright Catherine Johnson, who wrote the book, and it features music and lyrics by Björn Ulvaeus and Benny Andersson, members of the Swedish pop group ABBA. The musical is based on ABBA’s songs, with hits like “Dancing Queen,” “Super Trouper,” and, of course, “Mamma Mia.”
ABBA is a synonym of all their first initials of their names ( Anna, Benny, Bjorn + Agnetha ) HUGE following especially In Europe, Australia, Far East etc.
Anni-Frid, Benny, Björn, Agnetha. Anna was a short lived nickname for Agnetha when they thought overseas audiences would have trouble pronouncing her name right.
Thanx for doing some ABBA.It's been a long time since your last Abba reaction so i guess you obviously couldn't remember our commenting that they are actually a supergroup consisted of 2 married Swedish couples 2 guys songwritters/producers and 2 women leadsingers.This song was both no1 as a single and as part of their album in 1978.Album was no1 for 7 weeks,Their estimated record sales bring them second best selling band only topped by The Beatles..In the UK they have their 'Gold Greatest hits" album being the 2nd best selling LP ever there (after Queen's "Greatest hits" ) and they still hold the record for the album with the most weeks of chart residency ever (1184 weeks).It's still in the UK top 20 now,after being at the number 1 in 3 different years.1992 in 1999 and again 2008.
Don't feel betrayed -- you're discovering all of them NOW... 🙂🙃 ...and get yourself a looong ladder to climb into ABBA's rabbithole. Best wishes from Germany
ABBA was the hottest group in the world during their prime in the 70’s. All the songs in the movie Mama Mia were originals from ABBA. ABBA stands for the initials of their first names: Angtheta (blond lady), Bjorn (guitar guy), Bennie (key boards), Anne Fried (dark hair lady).
Yes they are and pretty well derseved.Swedish bliss.Btw don't really pay that much attention to the reaction video's thumbnail title.She's done again an Abba reaction anyway.it's either a typical clickbait or she possibly don't remember.
All the songs in the Mamma Mia movie are by ABBA. Please go on and react to all of them, and many more from their catalog. You will enjoy reacting to them, and we will enjoy watching your reactions. I have subscribed in anticipation.
You should absolutely react to ABBA. Must listens you may not have heard that are not on the Mama Mia soundtrack, Chiquitita Ring ring Knowing me Knowing you Summer night City If it wasn't for the nights When I kissed the teacher My love my life That's me Angel Eyes The King has lost his crown Kisses of fire Eagle then you could work your way through the Mama mia soundtrack. 😋 That should give you plenty of content. (And there is more, they have a great discography as undisputed pop queens and kings of the 70's)
ABBA is a Swedish group and since I am also Swedish, I want to correct the names, they are called Agnetha, Björn, Benny, Anni-Frid but many in the USA and also in other countries had difficulty pronouncing the names of the women in the group, so Agnetha was called Anna and Anni-Frid was called Frida.
A side note If you've seen the "Mamma Mia" movies (there are two, and a third is already in the works) all the songs you saw and heard are from ABBA ABBA have more than 20 worldwide hits between 1972-1982 included 9 singles #1 in UK charts: Waterloo Mamma Mia Fernando Dancing Queen Knowing me knowing you The name of the game Take a chance on me The winner takes it all Super trouper and more bangers like S.O.S. Money money money Chiquitita
ABBA was a good band they were from Sweden I think I need to check they learned to sing English listening to old American rock and roll songs another great song they did an all time classic WATERLOO check that one out. Also there is a group from Holland called the ANALOUGES these guys do an entire Beatles album in concert they know no other English but doing Beatles classic from 1966-1970 check them out too
Estimated ABBA total sales in 2025 from their start is now staggering 980 million copies.. Beatles are over a billion 2025.. but remember that record sales was not counted in the 70 ts.. after going back and counting and putting that sales into real sales.. ABBA is actually nr 2 in the world most selling artist/band ever !
Yes,awayfrom the Mamma Mia films,this is the original version.And this is actually the real thing in their prime reign/'Our ABBA' for many of us fans of the band.

Greatest Pop-Band of all times
"Take a chance on me" (1978)
is one of their best ABBA hits in all the world,
the most selling song of ABBA in U.S. (more than Dancing Queen),
#3 in Billboard U.S.
one of their four Top10 in US :
#6 Waterloo (1974)
#1 Dancing Queen (1977)
#3 Take a chance on me (1978)
#8 The winner takes it all (1981)
This is one of few song than the vocals are more extensive than the music
(They begin 'a capela' and singing at the end)
the blonde singer Agnetha is the lead vocal in the solo verses, her voice is so powerful,
in perfect armonies and chorus with the brunette Frida in co-leads vocal
(and the boys in back voices singing repetitive the frase 'take a chance, chance')
Agnetha & Anni Frid have fantastic voices and harmonies together
Agnetha is soprano
Anni Frid 'Frida' is mezzo soprano
and together made a 'third voice'
the guitarist Björn got the idea while jogging,
by the sound of the footsteps he interpreted t-k-t t-kt and adapted it to
"take a chance, chance, take a chance",
so the song was born
Although it is a disco europop, it's like a constant and happy march, captivating, cloying, addictive
I wish you a greatest weekend

Benny even had a cameo in the Mamma Mia movie with Meryl Streep. He is the one playing the piano on the sail boat.

a synonym? acronym!
Anni-Frid, Benny, Björn, Agnetha. Anna was a short lived nickname for Agnetha when they thought overseas audiences would have trouble pronouncing her name right.
