Her delivery comes across as so authentic and heartfelt because it actually happened. The song was written by her husband who is also in the band and their separation. I did not realize this when it came out in the 70s. It feels much more powerful to me with this context. Thanks for reacting to this great song!
No, it was not about their separation. Björn has said that it was about divorce, but not their divorce. He said: "It is the experience of a divorce, but it's fiction. There wasn't a winner or a loser in our case. A lot of people think it's straight out of reality, but it's not."
@@patriciamccormick9321I am curious as to where you got the information about his cheating. I am not saying you are wrong, I am simply asking for information.
A real masterpiece! I loved your reaction! ABBA has a lot of great heartbreaking songs! Knowing Me, Knowing You, S.O.S. and One Of Us I think you would like!
Reacting to more of their catalogue will draw in more viewers like none before. Your opportunity. With their recent events and what they have gifted us, we fans thirst for more.
It shows that the song did touch you deep inside your soul Great reaction!👌 ABBA👑 never dissapoint I hope to see you soon with more of them. Love❤️ from Chile 🇨🇱👍
So nice to see you for first time And with your first reaction to ABBA the swedish quartet that leads in 70s decade "The winner takes it all" (1980) is one of the Best Songs by ABBA and the Most sad and emotional too The best lyrics by the guitarist Björn and the greatest performing with the amazing Interpretation of one of their lead singer, the blonde Agnetha Fältskog and her soprano voice The lyrics is a fiction about a divorce, it is not about Their real life, although it is obviously influenced by Their own experiences and the realization of the legal divorce between Agnetha & Björn in the middle of 1980, even though They were no longer a couple or lived together more than a year and half ago, at the end of 1978 the Official Video, with more than 110 millions views in TH-cam, was filmed on July 12 (1980), is a Masterpiece as the song (it shows the blonde singer Agnetha alone so sad and remembering happy times, and the others members so nice together, a perfect example of contrast feelings) It's the first ABBA vídeo with images in black and white about Their previous history, to introduce us in the context; I think it's their best official video but just as a great performance by Agnetha is seen in these video, almost like a dramatic actress, transmitting the sorrow, anguish and pain, (there are also videos in the back room of the filming, which show the four cheerful and fun) "The winner takes it all" return ABBA to the Top of the charts, gives ABBA their eighth #1 in UK after almost two years and half Also was the fourth and last Top10 to ABBA in U.S (pick at #8 in 1981) and #1 in US Adult Contemporary too "The winner takes it all" was voted the Best ABBA song by the British fans, and is the favourite ABBA song to the blonde singer Agnetha and now in the new 'Voyage concerts' at London the encore song is... "The winner takes it all" I hope to see you soon with more ABBA songs (in another comment I give you suggestions) My best regards to You from Buenos Aires Argentina 🇦🇷 South America
What an amazing voice! One of the all time great sad songs! ♥ I suggest these ABBA songs: Knowing Me Knowing You, Chiquitita, SOS, Summer Night City, Gimme Gimme Gimme & Take A Chance On Me
My favorite ABBA songs besides this one is slipping through my fingers which is about a parent and there child how they grow up so fast which I think is a good listen to new sub by the way❤
These is ABBA, the iconic Swedish pop quartet, the best, most versatile and most important of the 70s, in the post BEATLES decade (the revolutionary group of the 60s) ABBA, as in its time BEATLES, was a musical and cultural phenomenon, and its legacy lives on ABBA is an acronim with the initials of their first names; initialy was two swedish couples too: A- Agnetha (blonde lead vocal) & B- Björn (guitarist and songwriter) B- Benny (pianist and songwriter) & A- Anni Frid 'Frida' (brunette lead vocal) (both couples separated before the breakup of the group in 1982) ABBA recording between 1972/1982, have a wonderful series of more than 20 worldwide hits, included nine #1 in UK: 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 another worldwide hits like S.O.S., Money money money, Chiquitita, etc And after more than 35 years ABBA return to studio in 2017 and recording a full new album "Voyage" between 2017/2021 released in November 2021 and is a worldwide succes (with four nominations to Grammys awards 2023, two for the album and two for one of their comeback songs) And in last May 2022 all four ABBA members asist to the premiere of the new Voyage concerts (with avatars of Theirself) in the new ABBA Arena at London UK (another greatest success,, with tickets on sale to November 2023) The ages of all ABBA members now is 72 Agnetha Fältskog ; 76 Benny Andersson 77 Björn Ulvaeus & Anni Frid (Frida) Lyngstad ABBA begin to be famous in 1974, when They won the Eurovision Song Contest in UK with their iconic song "Waterloo" these is the link of the live perfomance, that I suggest you to a next reaction th-cam.com/video/3FsVeMz1F5c/w-d-xo.html I hope to see more reactions to ABBA GOD bless you my best regards from Buenos Aires Argentina 🇦🇷 South America
They are so much more, as you eloquently wrote, a pop band. They are my favorite “ band” of all time. ELO comes in second, and Agnetha is my second favorite singer of all time, right after Olivia.
Agnetha and Björn in ABBA didn´t comment their divorce in any other way. This song was the only information they gave their fans. And we didn´t believe it at first. Not Agnetha and Björn?! The beautiful successful couple?! But it was true. Now, many years later, I understand her sorrow in a way I couldn´t as teenager.
Here's Your ABBA Crash Course in pronouncing their most difficult Swedish names: Agnetha and Björn. Agnetha, the Blond, sings using her Tongue = "Tongnetha" = Angnetha = Agnetha. OK? Björn, with the Guitar, Earns money = BjEarns = Björn. OK? Benny and Anni-Frid are easier to pronounce I think. ABBA is pronounced with the Stress on the last "A". Like this: abbA´. OK? Good Luck! Yes, I'm Swedish - and I saw ABBA live 1975, just as their Rocket Career Took Off - and that Rocket will Never Ever Crash Land.
The eyes are the gateway to the soul. That's what Leo Tolstoy said: the eyes are the mirror of the soul. Are you sure your name is Lex, could it be Leo? 🙂
Americans....probably the same reason they have to say the exact same thing before and after a commercial break, often repeating near minutes of what we already know..reason unknown, but its effing annoying.
@@camillanordlund9906 just a piece of advice Camilla, he should consider treating his audience as reasonably intelligent people. Perhaps that is too much to ask these days....
Thanks for interrupting the song to explain what it's about. The song came out 42 years ago. I guess there's about 5 people in the world that aren't familiar with it
No other band than ABBA can get our feelings in swing! They are MASTERS at stiring up our feelings!

He cheated on her with her best friend and singing partner. What else would he say. She has said the pain was real when she sang it.

ABBA are master storytellers, that's why they are so popular, they just draw you in.
I love your faith-based responses. May God bless you. 🙏🙌❤️
A real masterpiece! I loved your reaction! ABBA has a lot of great heartbreaking songs! Knowing Me, Knowing You, S.O.S. and One Of Us I think you would like!
She was feeling the pain! She actually recorded this song 2weeks after her divorce the guitar player, in which he wrote!!
ABBA are easily in my all-time top five. ✌️
Masterpiece ❤
Yeaaa, that classic song will hit anybody like fire, I don't care how heartless that person maybe
Please do more Abba, my favorite group for ever :)
Reacting to more of their catalogue will draw in more viewers like none before. Your opportunity. With their recent events and what they have gifted us, we fans thirst for more.

Her voice is beautiful. So clear I hear every single word. Just beautiful.
So nice to see you for first time
And with your first reaction to ABBA
the swedish quartet that leads in 70s decade
"The winner takes it all" (1980)
is one of the Best Songs by ABBA
and the Most sad and emotional too
The best lyrics by the guitarist Björn and the greatest performing with the amazing Interpretation of one of their lead singer, the blonde Agnetha Fältskog and her soprano voice
The lyrics is a fiction about a divorce,
it is not about Their real life, although it is obviously influenced by Their own experiences and the realization of the legal divorce between Agnetha & Björn in the middle of 1980, even though They were no longer a couple or lived together more than a year and half ago, at the end of 1978
the Official Video, with more than 110 millions views in TH-cam, was filmed on July 12 (1980), is a Masterpiece as the song
(it shows the blonde singer Agnetha alone so sad and remembering happy times, and the others members so nice together, a perfect example of contrast feelings)
It's the first ABBA vídeo with images in black and white about Their previous history, to introduce us in the context; I think it's their best official video
but just as a great performance by Agnetha is seen in these video, almost like a dramatic actress, transmitting the sorrow, anguish and pain,
(there are also videos in the back room of the filming, which show the four cheerful and fun)
"The winner takes it all" return ABBA to the Top of the charts, gives ABBA their eighth #1 in UK after almost two years and half Also was the fourth and last Top10 to ABBA in U.S (pick at #8 in 1981) and #1 in US Adult Contemporary too
"The winner takes it all"
was voted the Best ABBA song by the British fans, and is the favourite ABBA song to the blonde singer Agnetha
and now in the new 'Voyage concerts' at London the encore song is... "The winner takes it all"
I hope to see you soon with more ABBA songs
(in another comment I give you suggestions)

The song was written by her ex husband who is also in the band
My favorite ABBA songs besides this one is slipping through my fingers which is about a parent and there child how they grow up so fast which I think is a good listen to new sub by the way❤
These is ABBA, the iconic Swedish pop quartet, the best, most versatile and most important of the 70s, in the post BEATLES decade (the revolutionary group of the 60s)
ABBA, as in its time BEATLES, was a musical and cultural phenomenon, and its legacy lives on
ABBA is an acronim with the initials of their first names; initialy was two swedish couples too:
A- Agnetha (blonde lead vocal) &
B- Björn (guitarist and songwriter)
B- Benny (pianist and songwriter) &
A- Anni Frid 'Frida' (brunette lead vocal)
(both couples separated before the breakup of the group in 1982)
ABBA recording between 1972/1982, have a wonderful series of more than 20 worldwide hits, included nine #1 in UK:
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 another worldwide hits like
S.O.S., Money money money, Chiquitita, etc
And after more than 35 years ABBA return to studio in 2017 and recording a full new album "Voyage" between 2017/2021 released in November 2021 and is a worldwide succes
(with four nominations to Grammys awards 2023, two for the album and two for one of their comeback songs)
And in last May 2022 all four ABBA members asist to the premiere of the new Voyage concerts (with avatars of Theirself) in the new ABBA Arena at London UK (another greatest success,, with tickets on sale to November 2023)
The ages of all ABBA members now is
72 Agnetha Fältskog ; 76 Benny Andersson
77 Björn Ulvaeus & Anni Frid (Frida) Lyngstad
ABBA begin to be famous in 1974, when They won the Eurovision Song Contest in UK with their iconic song "Waterloo"

Fantastic 1980 ))Ukraina
@@luvyesmusici4886

BEATLES & ABBA
and two female singers:
Karen Carpenters & Agnetha Fältskog (both borm in 1950)
they gladly made partly comeback
Please react to When all is said and done. Another great break up song with the brunette Frida singing the lead vocals.

One of us should be the next reaction 😉
One of best groups ever. The singers are just acting out the song for a video. You might want to check out some of their other songs.
The song was written by Bjorn ulvaeus the one with out a beard about there divorce
more ABBA please
🙌

Yes, I'm Swedish - and I saw ABBA live 1975, just as their Rocket Career Took Off - and that Rocket will Never Ever Crash Land.
Yes, it is more than just a song. This song is about Agneta and Bjorn's divorce. He wrote it. She had to sing it. 😞
The eyes are the gateway to the soul. That's what Leo Tolstoy said: the eyes are the mirror of the soul. Are you sure your name is Lex, could it be Leo? 🙂
It’s Lex but I am a Leo ♌️
The man is the fool. The man who makes his women sad.
omg how could this be your first time listening to ABBA dude? Where were you living?
Its after she divorced
This is as sad of a break up song ever.
😉…………😢
Abba, as of 2013, outsold the Beatles….
Why are you explaining the lyrics? We can hear what she is singing.
Americans....probably the same reason they have to say the exact same thing before and after a commercial break, often repeating near minutes of what we already know..reason unknown, but its effing annoying.
This is his reflection and his channel !
@@camillanordlund9906 just a piece of advice Camilla, he should consider treating his audience as reasonably intelligent people. Perhaps that is too much to ask these days....
ABBA FOREVER !!!
Why the constant yabbering on? Why not let people here the music and you react after the song has finished? Annoying.
Did ya like the Y Abbering bit, haha.
