      i'm past 50 and ABBA were never 'cool' even in the '70s, but they were SO good that it never mattered. Forty-plus years of getting goosebumps when I hear Frida's voice. My own parents liked them and it's good that a 21st Century generation approves as well. Greatness has no time limit.

    So a lot of the critics are missing the point. If you thought there was going to be another Dancing Queen, another Mamma Mia, you failed the exam before you even sat down (yes, I'm looking at you, The Guardian). This album is about completion, and to me it says three things clearly.
    1) (as they have pretty much said themselves) we refuse to bow to *any* pressure on how our music "should" be. This is what we want to write as we close the book, and here it is.
    2) They knew instinctively that writing thirtysomething songs about finding and losing new lovers would be ridiculous when they were in their 70s, and on this instinct they were entirely correct. Thus the ballads are mature and sensitive renderings of the complexities of late-phase relationships and the dance numbers hinge on nostalgia.
    3) And perhaps most of all, it's a farewell. Yes, yes, I know we don't want it to be, and some people are already bleating for another album but...it is. And honestly, we should honour their wishes in this. The signal is there on every page. Here are the more straightforward things that matter to us now we are older - perhaps they can matter to you too. Here are what simple joys sound like without the many occluding veils. It's also a thank you, from Abba, not for the music, but for listening to the music, for being there for us these many decades. We still had faith in them, we didn't shut them down, no doubt about it.
    Last night I had a bizarre but rather affecting dream after listening to this album. Bear with me. I dreamed of four balloons like oriental lanterns with a candle underneath. They were at the edge of a large body of water and each balloon bore the semblance of one member of ABBA. One by one, at random moments, they took off into the mists, never to be seen again but glowing for a long time as they left. And behind them, always and without end, was the music they made. This lacerating final track, Ode To Freedom, echoes on the winds.
    And that was Voyage. And that was their voyage.
    And that has been our voyage...with ABBA...since the early 70s.
    May the wind be at your back Benny, Agnetha, Bjorn, Anni-Frid, and with the greatest sincerity, thank you for the music, thank you so very...very...much, for the music. You changed the world.

      @greensleeves7165 3 ปีที่แล้ว +68

      @@AnssiRai Well Benny did say that if the ladies twisted his arm, that's the only thing that could make it happen. So the ladies would have to want to do another album, I feel. Having just completed one, I'm not sure I think it's likely, but of course I would be delighted to be wrong about this. We don't have a limitless future anymore unfortunately. If we lose one of them, it's all over. I'm not interested in a 3-out-of-foursome ABBA album (or single) and I'm pretty sure they wouldn't be either.
      Here would be my own personal thought on making this possible. We, the fans, make it clear that the ladies would only have to do the stuff in Benny's studio (which they loved doing) and literally nothing else. That is *much* more likely to make it happen (imo).

      I think this is a message to the world that freedom is under threat and has been for some time from those who promise happiness and safety if we only give up everything and allow them total power over us.
      Currently the worlds wealthiest and most powerful and corrupt elite are openly discussing the best way to impoverish and take what is left of freedom from the people in the name of saving the planet.
      "If I ever wrote my
      Ode to Freedom
      Being privileged and spoilt for choice
      Then I fear that you would
      Be suspicious
      Of the cause to which I'd lend my voice"
      Yet people are not suspicious, instead they demand their own impoverishment and slavery because the huge media propaganda arm of these elite told them this will save the planet.
      Meanwhile those who demand it with their Islands, super yachts, private jets, fuel guzzling motorcades, lavish banquets, five star hotels and dozen multi million pound mansions give up nothing, in fact they have factually got ever more rich and powerful with each new crisis that takes our freedom and wealth.

      I read the Guardian review that conveniently skipped over No Doubt About It and totally missed the point that not every album recording ABBA made was Dancing Queen or Mamma Mia but songs like Ode To Freedom or The Visitors which have no disco beat or get up and dance. I bet they only listened to ABBA Gold. For true ABBA fans this album is what we have waited so long for and it does not disappoint. It has everything we want. Beautiful harmonies brilliant composition and meaningful lyrics I am sure it will also go down in history as a great album just like the ones before it. The recent charts say it all. Apapa

    I'm reading reviews for the album today, and I don't care what the "critics" write.
    The only thing that matters is that our dreams came true with this album. If anyone had told us, a few years ago we would not have believed it was possible. But it is, it really happened.
    I cried some songs because they touched me deeply.

      Yes, in 1982 when ABBA announced they were unofficially through, I was devistated. With VOYAGE, I felt such a euphoria, I couldn't describe it. But then in interviews when Benny and Bjorn said VOYAGE was the last and that this was the end, I was heartbroken that 'the door' was closing for good.

    I’ve now gotten the chance to listen to Agnetha & Anne-Frid on their own singles songs and they have beautiful voices. And I discovered when these two girls come together in the same room. Something magical happens. For the lack of better words. It’s as if, a whole new set of algorithms are brought into play. They automatically balance their voices. And lift each other up and fade into the background at the right time. This is a rare thing in music. I’m not talking harmonies as a group. This is a matchup of tones and power to drive each other at just the right time. And let’s not forget the boys. Their abilities to inject their sounds without overwhelming the girls takes skill as well. Going back in time to their vary first contest they won. It showed the voters a sound back then what they really liked. Benny & Bjorn discovered this early on. That Agnetha & Anne-Frid had a magnetic draw within the sound of their voices working together as a team. Even with the span of 40 years in time that thing we call magic stills holds. Well the rest is history we have ABBA!

Well, by chance I heard it right now and... I cannot express what I am feeling inside my soul and heart: this is poetry, is a classical ode at a Beethoven and Verdi level. This is not pop anymore is ART in its quintessential way. Pure beauty and emotion. Benny is a genius, the words of Björn are simply perfect and the voices of the 2 ladies... well, simply divine. UNESCO or ONU should declare this ode to World Heritage Site. THIS is not a simple song it is a classical Ode as gift for all of us... to humanity worldwide for a better world... for authentic and true freedom.

      Most popular music was soulless from the 60’s, including that of the Beatles. I was a radio DJ then and really had to tolerate a lot of it. I actually just about disliked it all and was dismayed at the standards to which music hand sunk even from the previous generation.
      Then ABBA came along and made everything brighter and happier and much more melodic. How amazing that was.
      After they disbanded, looking for better music, I turned to opera and really fell more in love with classical music than I had been.
      A few decent pop singers have come along, but only two have stood out for me -IL Volo and the extraordinary Dimash Qudaibergen - mainly for their voices and the KIND of music they present. And now again, ABBA has lit a beautiful lamp in the bleak music landscape - with their sensitivity to music that is eternal. And in that they once again, are lighting up the world! Even one of the songs on the new album which I dislike - and the only ABBA song I have ever disliked, is far, far better that just about anything out there today. Thank you ABBA. So very, very much. 💖

    It would be great if the Vienna philarmonic would play this tune at the new year`s concert on 1 january 2022. Abba are such a timeless beauty. The voices and harmonies are from another world. 40 years, where did you go? I remember staying home from school one day pretending I did not feel ok, to listen to The Album all over again and again. Their new songs are still revelations to me and what consoles me when thinking of them in connection with time is the fact that the experience is shared by so many people all over the world who are enthralled by the underlying truth in their often melancholic tunes... Life had them when they were "young and sweet, only seventeen" but they were also still there when all was said and done, and the winner took it all ... They never lied to me. Fair enough, that`s the way it all goes, thank your for the music, guys! You have given me so much! And how often have I turned to your music when everything else did not make much sense. You are leaving such a legacy to this world with all its imperfection and beauty ...

    It's cathartic... I wish my parents were still here to hear this! But I'm sure this music is free enough to reach the stars and the angels...

      You are so right. This Song will reaches the whole universe. And far more. We human know there is much more between Earth and Heaven. I even think this Song is a gift from the Angels to us humans.

    I think, the whole album is a "Thank You for 50 years" for the true fans all over the world ! Thank You ABBA for this PRESENT! It`s in my heart and in my soul and on my desk as a physical CD since 4 hours ! It's so good to share that feeling with so many people here! A big circle is closed! Greetings from Berlin, Germany!

      ABBA's last album is a thank you, is a gift, and is a request to defend freedom (Ode to freedom) and the environment (bumblebee), and is so much more. Thank you ABBA, you will live forever in my heart!

    This song. This song is simply magnificent. It should be played across the world, at the same time. Everyone should hear it. I am in love with ABBA.

      You are absolutely right my Friend.
      Someone in the world should make sure there is a date in the earth calendar where ALL COUNTRIES around the world are playing Ode to Freedom, with incredible images on the screen, where everyone in the world can hear and see this song and images at the same time.
      This event NEEDS to be the equal of when the Beatles had their worldwide satellite and got to play their ALL YOU NEED IS LOVE single for the whole world.

    This melody is so utterly moving and the lyrics are so humble and wistful. The blended voices reflect that too. There is a yearning in there that does move me to tears. A symphonic arrangement and fitting finale for ABBA writing and performing as ABBA, with a profound twist in the very last line of the lyric (I added that after more absorption of this piece, which is actually, unashamedly classical in concept and musicality).
    A very humble “thank you, ABBA” from me. For all time. 💝
