ABBA was from Sweden.
They could speak and sing in 7 different languages.
Which help them to sell the most albums of ANY music group in the World !
ABBA are simply the greatest pop band in music history. The were a global phenomenon during their recording and performing years of 1974-1982 when the band split only to get back together in 2022, 40 years later, to create their new album Voyage and a new live Avatar show still running to rave reviews in London. Their music covers all sorts of different styles and is well worth time in listening to a wide selection of their music. Their vocal range and attention to detail in their production is why they are as popular now as they ever were.
I love this live version.Audience is explosive especially in the end.I much enjoyed this reaction,thanx.
Glad you enjoyed it
Good to see you for frist timem with a reaction to ABBA songs
This was the most epic, exciting and unforgettable moment for all members of ABBA
on their memorable tour of Australia in 1977.
We must remember that,
after ABBA's victory in Eurovision 1974 with their devastating and iconic song "Waterloo",
they had a hard time repeating that success
And it was in Australia that the 'ABBA' album videos were a huge success,
with three consecutive #1 singles:
I do I do I do I do I do, Mamma Mia (10 weeks in the Top!) and S.O.S.
That reverberated in Europe,
beginning with "S.O.S." an unbroken string of successes for 7 years between 1975/1982
ABBA goes to Australia in 1976 and makes a series of very successful television appearances
(TV special "Best of ABBA" was a audience record, beating the 1969 Moon landing broadcast)
ABBAmania was installed in Australia, the marketing was incredible:
posters, t-shirts, mugs, everything had the image of ABBA
his new single "Fernando" spent 14 weeks at #1
and broke another record (from The BEATLES with "Hey Jude")
in that context is the ABBA tour in the first quarter of 1977, first Europe and then Australia
they had spectacular receptions (at the airport, at the municipal town hall, and at the concerts)
ABBA'sfour members could not get out of their amazement,
they being Swedish were adored so far away,
and that is what you see in this video, which are part of the film "ABBA The Movie"
about the song
then comes the final number, "Dancing Queen",
with the audience exploding into dance and ABBA doing one of their best live performances,
unforgettable and emotional
the quality of ABBA live is extraordinary,
for their concert tour they brought a special choir and twice as many musicians,
to maintain the same level of their productions in the recording studio
also an orchestra to play some special songs, like thes
I hope to see you with more videos to ABBA
my suggestion is their first worldwide hit
"Waterloo"
the winner perfomance at Eurovision 1974 in UK
kind regards from
Buenos Aires, Argentina
South America
Thank you for the information. We added the other songs to our list.
@@KathyLuluandDonna
thank you so much!
Although the official video is good, the live performance at Eurovision 1974 is iconic, it is when ABBA rose to fame
and next year the 50th anniversary of that historic moment will be celebrated, and they will surely be honored
I grew up with all the fabulous music from the 60's-80's. ABBA was one of my favorites. They had lots of hits & I owned many of their albums. I can't think of a bad song by them. Some of their best are "Mama Mia", "Thank You For The Music", "Gimme! Gimme! Gimme!", "Money, Money, Money", "Waterloo", "Super Trouper", "I Have A Dream", "Voulez-Vous", "Fernando", "Chiquitita", "Take A Chance On Me", "SOS", "Knowing Me, Knowing You" etc.
Added them to the list.
@@KathyLuluandDonna etc... "Name of the game," "The winner takes it all, "Ring Ring," "Summer Night city,"" "Honey Honey," "When I kissed the teacher," ""Bang a boomerang" etc...
Their hits go on and on and on (Which is another one BTW)
I think that 'I have a dream' or even their latest album track 'I can be that woman"(an obscure lyrical tribute to legendary country singer Tammy Wynette by the band's member and lyricist) would be a good suggestion for the very sympathetic lady in the right that was more into country music.
I was decades late to Knowing Me Knowing You, but it's on par with Go Your Own Way as a breakup song and both were released in the same year.
Pity they don't make 'em like this anymore....pure joy.
I was in that audience - 3rd March 1977 Sydney Australia. Magical 💖
Wow
Love how Lulu is starting to sing along. She doesn't miss anything.
I love seeing Zs and Alphas experiencing -!and appreciating - the good of Boomer and X culture.
Hi, there!
Audience of all ages... like those days of ABBA in the australian tour '77.
ABBA made songs of many styles... but basically is pop.
BEST ⭐ POP ⭐ MUSIC ⭐ EVER
2 couples... 2 girls, 2 boys... great composition, great voices, fantastic harmonies, glam pop outfits....
AMAZING 👌
The official video is so good too...
Try 'Mamma Mia'
'SOS'
'Money money money'
'The Winner Takes it All'......etc..
Take care, girls... see ya
Greetings ❤ from Chile 🇨🇱😘👍
Thanks for the information. Added the other songs to our list.
As a '68 vintage Gen Xer I love Donna's thoughts and insights. I'm a fan of history including cultural history and seeing Lulu's reactions and impressions of these songs from decades before she was born simply make me happy.
Yes, “Dancing Queen” by the Swedish group ABBA is indeed a Europop and disco song. It was released as the lead single from their fourth studio album, Arrival (1976). The song was written by Benny Andersson, Björn Ulvaeus, and Stig Anderson, and it became a worldwide hit. Interestingly, it topped the charts in various countries, including the United States, Australia, Canada, Sweden, and many others
European,Australian culture was/is heavily blended with Abba's music,not to mention even South Africa and Latin America in some degree.Abba is still a music phenomenon in the pop musicverse and according to what a journalist recently reported they have a solid 'pan-generational fan base'.Thank you for your reaction.
Thank you
@@KathyLuluandDonna
The Aussies sure do love ABBA. Lol.
ABBA are simply the greatest pop band in music history. it was when people stared buying music then after the cash its they saw a market it get in to disco frade out
The 70s...ah!! GREATEST decade of music for sure! How lucky I was to grow up and experience all the music of that era. And ABBA...definitely timeless!! What pop band would have a full-string orchestra? Outstanding!!
Lulu is the star of your show and I also love how Nancy always refers to "your dad" knows .....keep posting, you guys are great and keep doing rock and metal
I never tire of ABBA.
ABBA were the Swedish version of a 'Supergroup' when they formed. All four members had been successful as solo singers or in previous bands. Each had a slightly different musical background and they weren't really sure which direction the band should take. So their early albums are a mixed bag of Glam Rock, European Folk, MOR and even some Reggae/Calypso tinged numbers. As the two women came to dominate the lead vocals, they really became full on 'Pop/'Europop' but still threw in the occasional 'Rock' song. They only did one 'Disco' orientated album so they shouldn't be defined by that one music genre.
ABBA are just massive in the UK...their songs are so hard to cover ...they were geniuses...
Im 62, and I’m sure you remember, back then in the 70’s people here in America liked a lot of rock , soul, funk, and country music, and many people basically defined ABBA by the song Dancing Queen, even though they had a lot of other hits. So it wasn’t cool just to say you liked or loved ABBA, if you did you kept it a secret . After the late 90’s when ABBAs music became popular again , nobody hides it now, we all can say that we love ABBA with no fear lol .😄
Do more ABBA, please!
ABBA was a Swedish pop group formed by two couples in 1972. (they wrote and produced all of their songs)
I recommend "Chiquitita (from ABBA In Concert)" - it's not actually a country song but your mother may enjoy the singing.
Added it to our list.
I was 6 years old growing up in Australia at the time and I can tell you that Australia had ABBA fever.
I would call their music pop/ dance.
They are so talented , there will never be another Super Group like ABBA again.
I love your accents by the way, greetings and blessings from Australia.
Hi, Girls. I loved ABBA when I was growing up. As there songs where happy. And made me feel good.
I grew up with GFR in Flint, MI. I used to watch them rehearse in a neighbor's basement before their breakout performance at the Atlanta Pops festival in 1970. They inspired me to become a professional musician. They also had a keyboard player named Craig Frost who played with them originally and left the band prior to Atlanta Pops but rejoined the band on several albums, including "American Band." He later joined Bob Seger and has been with him ever since. I went to school with Craig's younger brother, Scott (RIP) was also a monster keyboard player. He and I gigged together for years. Craig would sit in with us sometimes. So much fun. Sadly, Scott passed away from cancer about 8 years ago.
GFR is awesome - especially the original lineups.
I also recommend Three Dog Night - another awesome group from that era. Why GFR and Three Dog Night are not in the hall of fame is criminal!
When I was stationed in germany in the seventies
Though true, most will not acknowledge that ABBA was primarily a studio band comprised of anywhere from 9 to 12 members and mainly made up of locally contracted Session players / musicians who happen to get lucky with some Pop Sugar tunes. Never having had any intention of leaving their "backyard" to take their music to the public, they were overwhelmed by the requirements of actually touring. Although practically all of their counterparts had recognized long ago that being out in front of your fans was integral to sustainable long term success, the incredibly daunting logistical challenges coupled with enormous financial expense of taking a band (again, primarily made up of low paid Session players) overseas for extended periods of time to do concerts was pretty much ruled out from the beginning and served to undermine the sustainability of the band as the 70's wound down. By the time the decade was over, virtually no one had actually seen them perform live as only 13 concerts were done in all of North America and in the case of ABBA, the concerts came too late as the genre have moved on leaving them behind. Within the first two years of the 80's, ABBA was through, they disbanded and went their separate ways.
It wasn’t really that they were overwhelmed, it was more thst they didn’t really like to tour. ABBA was basically a supergroup. Benny had been the keyboard player of Sweden’s most popular rock band in the 60’s, the Hep Stars. Björn was the lead singer and guitar player of a skiffle band called the Hootenanny Singers with several songs topping the charts in Sweden and even getting some air play in the Netherlands and Germany. Frida was a jazz singer who started performing with a band at age 14. Several years later she won a televised song competition and then performed on stage with many iof Sweden’s most popular singers. Agnetha was a singer/songwriter who had her first #1 hit in the Swedish charts at age 17. They had all been touring constantly for years by the time the group was formed. Björn and Benny had quit their bands and wanted to pursue a career as song writers, which would allow them to still be in the music business, but working 9 to 5 and lead normal lives instead of the constant touring. By this time Björn and Agnetha had gotten married and Benny and Frida were dating. Their manager still felt they should perform the songs themselves rather than just selling them. Grudgingly the boys recorded some songs and brought in the girls for some background vocals. And so it began. Their manager recognised that the girls sang better than the guys and should get some more space and insisted that in order to get international recognition they should enter the Eurovision Song Contest since their was little interest in Swedish bands. Their first attempt was Ring Ring, which failed to get them to Eurovision as it only came in second in the Swedish competition. Their next attempt was Waterloo, which won both the Swedish leg and then the final in Brighton as well, and the rest is history. The Beatles is the only band to have sold more records. But hey, the whole idea had originally been to just stay at home in Stockholm and write songs. It was their manager who pushed them back on stage and made them international stars, which forced them out on the road again, but they kept it to a bare minimum. Instead recording videos of their songs and sending to TV stations, something that was a completely novel idea in the 70’s, long before MTV came along or youtube existed. They had had enough of touring before ABBA even came to be. But they did go on a couple of tours though, and making sure to film their visit to Australia. That film, as well as the previous music videos, was directed by their friend Lasse Hallström, who later shot to Hollywood fame with films like Gilbert Grape, Chocolat and Cider House Rules. I guess the idea that that way people could watch them at a movie thestre instead of them having to be on the road.
Being fair to ABBA, I'll say they filled the temporary void between the end of the Soft Rock era (think: America, Bread, Simon & Garfunkel and etc) and the more dominant & more commercially sustainable, guitar driven, Power Rock era that took over in the late 70's. Sure, most everyone loves "sugar" but, folks can't really live on it day-to-day and, that's what ABBA was -- Sugar Pop.
Given the dramatic fall of both Sugar Pop's economic viability and the massive decline of the popularity of the Disco and Dance Club genre, ABBA was sure to struggle. While most other rising bands of the time were getting tremendous exposure to fans through television each week on various pre-MTV shows (think: Midnight Special, Don Kirshner's Rock Concert and SNL) + massive exposure through the meaningful & significant concert tours they did, ABBA fans got virtually nothing as very few people ever actually saw them perform anything live.
Not accepting the need to get out in front of fans by touring, not getting TV exposure and well, basically staying in a studio in western Europe, over engineering music that could rarely be performed with quality when played live, coupled with the crippling cost of touring so far from their base, and the complete collapse of the genre they worked in, ABBA was bound to sputter out. As the Power Rock of the '70's bled into the Guitar Rock / MTV era, ABBA went to the sidelines, saw there was no path forward for them, gave up then, disbanded --- sad, but true.
@@effychase62 Well, sounds like a very North American perspective. Most of the shows you mention I have never even heard of. ABBA were huge in Europe, Asia, Australia and pretty big in Latin America. The only market they never really broke into was North America, even if they did have a handful of hits there. The compilation album ABBA Gold that was released in the 90’s went straight to the top in the UK and has stayed in the British top 100 for more than athousand consecutive weeks, which is a unique feat and shows their enduring popularity. Their current avatar show Voyage, playing in London is consistently sold out. And Beatles is the only group to have sold more records than them. I think Americans tend to underestimate the impact they had on the global music scene. I think one of the main reasons they broke up was because both couples had divorced and it is kind of weird to be working with your exes. Also, the two guys wanted to write musicals, and have been fairly successful at that. Chess, Christina, Mamma Mia. Another great way to cash in on your musicality without having to be on the road.
🤔
We love ABBA, it's impossible not to ♥️🇸🇪
Next year is the 50 th anniversary of them winning Eurovision.🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
The Aussies really loved this one, they wanted to make it their anthem ??? lol
Band from Sweden checkout their discography they have sold over 300 million albums. English is their second language
For this tour in Australia they did hire a small orchestra tour with them. And in interviews Bjorn and Benny have stated that their goal was to break even on that tour. But based on videos of their Live at Wembly Arena concerts, I don't think they normally toured with an orchestra.
ABBA toured very little compared to other bands. They were swarmed by fans anywhere they went. They couldn't even leave the hotel because of the fans. And touring is difficult and very tiring. And Agnetha and Bjorn did not like being away from her children.
Donna is really cool. Well done ladies and big love from Liverpool UK.
Thank you
ABBA are from Sweden..and names are Agnetha,Bjorn,Benny,Anni-Frida, Dancing Queen was the number one song here in United States in 1976 for two week and concert was in Australia in 1977 it was sold out…
Disco was still going strong in 78
As an Aussie, I just love this era of Abba, it was their prime time with generations that loved their sound and music, I grew up in this era, wonderful memories of their only tour of Australia and love how they’ve continued to evolve and remain throughout all these years 🤩🥰🎼
I enjoy seeing your little family react. I don't get to see mine much and I'm glad y'all get to stay close.
I was a teenager in the 1970s starting in 1975.
And yes I was causing a lot of mischief
Agnetha, Benny, Bjorn and Anna-Frid.
Had a crush both of the girls of group Abba was a mix of pop, Rock, Yes, go.Quite a quite a different group of genres of music. Even though I'm a metal head rocker I still like them because they were talented.And the songs were catchy Waterloo's.Another good one dancing dancing queen of course, Does your mother know?
Winner takes it all I can go on forever
ABBA are a pop quartet from Sweden.
ABBA, was as great a band as The Bee Gees were, so many hits…they were married to each other
I recommend "Oktaf Kanis - Come On" 🤟🏻❤
You guys are great, great reaction ❤
Thank you so much 😁
1976 forever ❤🎉
I am only a casual fan of ABBA, but they are instantly recognizable, I can identify an ABBA song within a few seconds, even if you came up with one I haven't heard before.
As a hardcore metal-head who listens to bands like Metallica, Led Zeppelin, AC/DC, Judas Priest, Tool, Slip Knot, Pink Floyd, Black Sabbath and Ozzy among others, ABBA is a guilty pleasure and I love it!
But I will say ABBA isn't the only non-metal band I love.
ABBA And KC And The Sunshine Band Are 2 Of The Groups That Inspired The Group Dead Or Alive.
Must hear Queen-Live Aid. You will love the show. You will also be surprised that they were the ones who made them classics.
Did You Know That This Song Was Released On A Queens Birthday? True Story.
rock on girl
ABBA were a EuroBand , their music wasn't particularly disco, more Europop. This song "Dancing Queen" was one of their biggest hits (No1 in America as well). This clip you're showing is from their Australian Tour. Probably the most globally well known band ever. Popular everywhere but in terms of sales, most popular in The UK, Sweden & Germany where the fans stayed loyal right to the end. They were huge in Australia but their popularity quickly faded there whilst they were still at the top of the tree. Apparently they are the 2nd most successful group ever after The Beatles. Their "Gold Greatest Hits" CD has been in the UK Top 100 for almonst 20yrs and is still in The Top 30. Nobody did it liike ABBA.
All talent back then when performing live
The Name ABBA Is Made From The First Letter Of The Names Of The 4 Members. And Their Music Is Disco.
Agneta Björn Benny Annefrid
It's Disco and there from Sweden
You want to watch 'The joy of ABBA', a documentary it's very good (it's on TH-cam).
These are my dad's favorite 👍 Abba and Boney M....they're Swedish
Disco/Europop
Nice reaction. Love Abba. I notice that your mic doesn't seem to pickup sound right away after a pause in the video. Not sure if the mute on it is taking a few seconds to be removed or something. But we are missing some of the reaction(maybe the most important part). Might be worth looking into.
Sorry about the that. We are working on the sound issues.
Sounds like there is a background noise filter turned on in settings somewhere. Maybe there is also a slider to adjust sensitivity of this filter.
ABBA, Ace Of Base, and Europe Are From Sweden.
This was disco.
Rock? A hole in your sole is rock. Maybe "Does your mother know?"; So long; King Kong Song
It's Pop Music!!!!!!
When is dancing King comming..)
The name ABBA is made up of the first letters of each of their first names.
My bad, not Nancy but Donna
Disco
Just a note about your mikes gals, I can hear Grandma and LuLU really well but Kathy, your vocal is low and cuts out. Just thought I'd mention. Been like that for a few reaction videos!
Kathy 's mic is not picking her voice up very well; Donna and Lulu's mics are fine
They were married couples! Then divorced
should have started with the album not live version
Hi new to your channel and I highly recommend Michael Bublé and origa-inner universe
Awesome thank you!
@@KathyLuluandDonna you’re very welcome
ABBA is definitely not disco. Donna Summer, all of her stuff is disco. For example these are more of a soft rock they call it enjoying your channel. 👍😄✌️
Back in the days ABBA was huuuge. I think only Elvis and the Beatles sold more records than this band.
Even though Im swedish I have to admit that this aint my cup of tea, but it makes me proud that a small country like mine with only 8 million people can come up with a band like Abba.
🇸🇪
*D.I.S.C.O*
U need to center your microphone. Can't hear lady on left.
The lady on the far left in between the young one and the other lady on the right your mike cut sound so bad I didn’t hear half of what you said in this song with ABBA please check your mic, thank you. Sounds like a loose wire cuts in and out.
Sorry, we are working on the sound issues. Hopefully, we will get it worked out soon.
@KathyandLulu I only see one microphone, and it looks like it's set up as a directional one. It will only pick up sound coming from one direction. For the setup you have you would need an omnidirectional microphone.
No no no. Bpm
Hmmm why did you pick this version? The official video is mu h better. You can hardly see them in the dark
Abba sold around 800 million copies, one of the MOST succsessfull bands.
And the songs are BRUTAL to sing. There are some real ugly tries by some "famous" modern female singers, they suck - even with autotune. Because to sing abba-songs, you have to be a full blown singer.
And don´t get into a trap - the ABBA-guys were NOT conservative. Only the blonde female singer seemed to be that way (because of her they broke up, ABBA were two couples who married and got divorced. Basically they sang all the time about their behaviour. Listen to "The winner takes it all" - the singer basically tells the crowd how she felt that her exhusband got another chick and she stand on stage seeing them together.
