"Eagle" (1977) is ABBA's longest song, almost six minutes It is the opening track of their fifth album, titled “ABBA The Album” (1977), which coincides with the release and premiere of their film ABBA The Movie” (1977), which records ABBA's memorable tour of Australia and all the ABBAmania unleashed there (the scenes we see in this unofficial video are taken from the film "ABBA The Movie") "Eagle" was released as a single in some countries, it is a shame that it did not have the opportunity to be the third single from "The Album" in the United Kingdom. (followed by "The Name of the Game" and "Take a Chance on Me") Back to "ABBA The Album" After the spectacular worldwide success with "Dancing Queen" and their album "Arrival" came this more versatile album with more experimental music, with more elaborate and profound lyrics, all the songs are of different genres, different from each other, fantastic, for me. It is their best album It includes the great hit "Take a chance on me", the beautiful ballad "One man one woman" the mystical "Move on", (you have already made these songs) and you still have to listen to the rocker "Hole in your soul" (I hope it is the next one, the live version at Wembley 1979 is unmissable) and the mini musical with the classic "Thank you for the music", and its continuations the dramatic ballad "I wonder (departure)" and the colossal "I'm a marionette" Every song is a must! They are all complete masterpieces. A bit of background All these songs were recorded after ABBA returned from their tour of Europe and Australia and by then the blonde Agnetha was already pregnant with her second child (so she recorded the nine songs, some with great physical difficulty) See you next time Best regards from Buenos Aires, Argentina South America
Thanks for the fantastic insights on ABBA's "The Album," Eagle! Your passion for their music really shines through. "Eagle" is such a gem, and it’s a shame it didn’t get more recognition as a single in the UK. I agree that this album showcases their versatility and lyrical depth-each track is a masterpiece in its own right! The background info about Agnetha adds even more context to the album’s creation. We appreciate your loyalty and love for the music! Keep those recommendations coming! Much Love From Nairobi , Kenya ! 🎶❤️
That’s awesome! "The Day Before You Came" is such a haunting masterpiece. I’m glad we’ve already reacted to it! If you haven’t seen it yet, check it out using the link below. Sending love for your great taste in music! ❤️ th-cam.com/video/CaZzmJh40w8/w-d-xo.html
This is perhaps one of ABBA's rockiest songs... The girls singing together and the boys on backing vocals... really nice! So good to see you again, Vicky & Peter ✌️ Love ❤️ from Chile 🇨🇱🤗😘👍
Make sure you also watch ABBA live Wembley and Sidney, so powerful and good. Also worth seeing and hearing ABBA in Japan 1978 “if it wasn't for the night” “the name of the game” and more Also perfect “Kisses Of Fire, Lovers Live A Little Longer (Live Switzerland '79)
Absolutely, We promise to check them out! ABBA’s live performances are legendary, and it sounds like we are missing out on some amazing moments. Thanks for the recommendation-sending lots of love for your passion for their music! We Can’t wait to dive into those concerts! 💖✨Much Love ❤️❤️
"Eagle" (1977) is ABBA's longest song, almost six minutes
It is the opening track of their fifth album, titled “ABBA The Album” (1977),
which coincides with the release and premiere of their film ABBA The Movie” (1977),
which records ABBA's memorable tour of Australia and all the ABBAmania unleashed there
(the scenes we see in this unofficial video are taken from the film "ABBA The Movie")
"Eagle" was released as a single in some countries,
it is a shame that it did not have the opportunity to be the third single from "The Album" in the United Kingdom.

Back to "ABBA The Album"
After the spectacular worldwide success with "Dancing Queen" and their album "Arrival"
came this more versatile album with more experimental music, with more elaborate and profound lyrics,
all the songs are of different genres, different from each other, fantastic, for me. It is their best album
It includes the great hit "Take a chance on me",
the beautiful ballad "One man one woman"
the mystical "Move on",
(you have already made these songs)
and you still have to listen to
the rocker "Hole in your soul"
(I hope it is the next one, the live version at Wembley 1979 is unmissable)
and the mini musical with the classic
"Thank you for the music",
and its continuations
the dramatic ballad "I wonder (departure)" and the colossal "I'm a marionette"
Every song is a must!
They are all complete masterpieces.
A bit of background
All these songs were recorded after ABBA returned from their tour of Europe and Australia
and by then the blonde Agnetha was already pregnant with her second child
(so she recorded the nine songs, some with great physical difficulty)
See you next time
