One just never get tired of Abba. I’m 48 years old and have been listening to them all my life. They are timeless. The list of hits goes on and on. Thank you ABBA for the music (listen to that song by the way, it’s great!)
hello, nice to see you again in another ABBA song there is much to say about "One of us" (1981) 1) It is a beautiful song, it has a soft melody and melancholic lyrics that allow Agnetha to shine with a very sweet voice, and a catchy and harmonic chorus 2) was ABBA's last big hit, #1 in several European countries and #3 in the UK (last Top 10 of their 18 in a row between 1975/1982) 3) recorded at the end of 1981, the two couples were already separated (Agnetha & Björn almost 3 years ago, Benny & Frida a few months ago) 4) the official video is very good, it shows Agnetha (with a more mature beauty) acting sober and convincing rebuilding a love life from a move 5) In my opinion it is together with "Slipping through my fingers" the best song from their latest album "The Visitors" (until the return of ABBA in last 2021) where the melancholy and rawness of his lyrics is most pronounced in the context of a complex album of musical exploration away from ABBA's signature pop, and an image of the four singles over the two couples You didn't reaction to "Chiquitita" at UNICEF Concert 1979 th-cam.com/video/2PDlNMbQiCo/w-d-xo.html or "Waterloo" at Eurovision Song Contest in UK 1974: th-cam.com/video/3FsVeMz1F5c/w-d-xo.html My greetings to you from Buenos Aires, Argentina South América
Don't worry Tysheen, the one hit misconception is a common mistake made in the US. The other 95% of the planet have been immersed in ABBA's music for the past 50 years - the second biggest selling band in music history. And lucky you, you still have a long way to go working through their fantastic catalogue of 20 worldwide number ones and many, many other stellar tracks. Enjoying your journey.
@@Ana_Lysera yes, 𝘰𝘯𝘭𝘺 9 number 1's in UK lol. Another indication of their impact would be that their collection album ABBA Gold has been in the top 100 UK album chart for 1034 weeks (yes you read that right) and counting. Was number 13 at end of 2021. Now that's success.
@@stevebrown661 Yeah! 9 no1 hits in UK was really big deal those days.They were pure physical REAL targeted sales that motivated people to go out in record stores and pay for a real copy.Not to mention countless top 3/top 10 uk hits there.(1979 had 5 top 3 singles+ 1 t0p 5 )...aaand 10 No1 albums btw!
Thanks for the ABBA. The apartment belonged to Lasse Hallström he's the young directer who did about all their videos. It's used in a few of their videos. Pretty sure this was their last hit single. I really like the song too. But seems kinda cruel of Bjorn to have her sing it after their divorce. But to be fair Agnetha loves songs like this. I don't think you've done "The Name Of The Game" bet you'll like it too. It's one of their most complex songs. Both girls have lead sections, lot's of tempo changes and it keeps building the backup harmonies till it's all just perfection. Wish you'd react to " No Doubt About It" off their new album. It's really overlooked a lot but Frida tears that song up. Anyways thanks for humouring us ABBA fan's. You know at least you didn't have to wait 40 years to find out their story end's happily.
I'd say "No doubt about it" is a very challenging song for women. Very few women reacted to it. Maybe much like 10cc's "Dreadlock Holiday". Very few, if any African Americans reacted to it.
WUT?! A song with ABBA I never heard before! Wow - and I completely love this! 🎷🎹 And this by our @Tysheen Orane! The multi-reaction Queen! LOVE YOU ❤️ 😃 and ALL Fantastic Fans of ABBA 🥳❤️🎷🧸 Y'all make my day!
@@darkiee69 Lol. I never, until a year ago, even liked ABBA. And one day, when I was down, I went to youtube and found someone reacting to this band... WUT? I could hardly believe it, it was so good! And now I completely love these guys. They were the most incredible band I'd ever listened to! Wow! And today I'm looking for everything they made. I'm going to be a Fan too. (That down-moode I was in is no more!) In one year- they stole my heart! (Novbember 2020)
Abba, sang about the complexities of relationships. Winner Takes it All - the divorce, and now the separation, the regrets. The two couples Benny & Agnetha, Björn & Anni-Frida ended up divorced. They wrote and sang about the experiences of life, and lyrics tell the story of that experience.
Their full catalogue is criminally underplayed....EVERY SINGLE ONE of their tracks from EVERY ONE of their studio albums is on my ABBA playlist, and often lovingly listened to ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
The song is also one of my favorite ABBA songs. The apartment really does look like the one in "Happy New Year" and the wallpaper... that was very modern at the time. We (my parents) also had it on the wall.
1:25 Yes, it's actually that same appartment :) It belonged to their video director Lasse Hallström. (Many Stockholm appartments looks like that though - typical for the art nouveau era, and built mostly between 1894 and 1914.)
This song is such a gem. It does have a kind of reggae island vibe. If you really want a tropical island vibe song, you should please react to Move on. My all time fave Abba song ❤️
they wrote unforgettable music. I've never met a music lover who has not heard at least one adba song. and most people who've followed them also know almost all their songs by heart. that's including me
The fabulous ABBA....a favourite track of mine, alongside The Winner Takes it All. Despite the upbeat tempo, this is a sad song. My chief 'criticism' of Benny and Bjorn (the songwriters) is that they portray everything in songs like these from the point of view that the woman has somehow failed. Never heard an ABBA song suggesting the men have been at fault for any relationship failure. It's a pity too that Agnetha Faltskog (the blonde) is largely recognised as being just a member of ABBA, when her voice was a big reason why they were so successful.
One just never get tired of Abba. I’m 48 years old and have been listening to them all my life. They are timeless. The list of hits goes on and on. Thank you ABBA for the music (listen to that song by the way, it’s great!)
The bass line of this is sick! 😍
The bass line is always sick, not just usually as prominent :)
hello, nice to see you again in another ABBA song
there is much to say about
"One of us" (1981)
1) It is a beautiful song, it has a soft melody and melancholic lyrics that allow Agnetha to shine with a very sweet voice, and a catchy and harmonic chorus
2) was ABBA's last big hit, #1 in several European countries and #3 in the UK (last Top 10 of their 18 in a row between 1975/1982)
3) recorded at the end of 1981, the two couples were already separated (Agnetha & Björn almost 3 years ago, Benny & Frida a few months ago)
4) the official video is very good, it shows Agnetha (with a more mature beauty) acting sober and convincing rebuilding a love life from a move
5) In my opinion it is together with "Slipping through my fingers" the best song from their latest album "The Visitors" (until the return of ABBA in last 2021) where the melancholy and rawness of his lyrics is most pronounced in the context of a complex album of musical exploration away from ABBA's signature pop, and an image of the four singles over the two couples
You didn't reaction to
"Chiquitita" at UNICEF Concert 1979

That's the truth!Thanks.You set things right Steve!
ABBA had only 9 number ones in the UK though...

So happy americans are discovering the treassures of ABBA 40 years later. You deserve it, and the music of ABBA deserve it.
Wonderful teenage memories

This song breaks my heart but also fills it with Hope. ABBA have the ability to kick my arse whilst also giving me a cuddle! X
Such a beautiful record ♥
Old and young they were loved by all
A couple of the pictures she hung on the wall appeared in Happy New Year, a year earlier
The song is also one of my favorite ABBA songs. The apartment really does look like the one in "Happy New Year" and the wallpaper... that was very modern at the time. We (my parents) also had it on the wall.
I believe the apartment belongs to Lasse Hallström (the director).
Thanks for sharing us ABBA's production.
We like it here.
Keep going, great reaction.=)
You are now a hononary swede! Congratulations and välkommen into the community haha!
Loving the ABBA reactions.
Hiii Tysheen :) almost a unknown song from Abba "THE king has Lost his Crown" :) :) :)
1:25 Yes, it's actually that same appartment :) It belonged to their video director Lasse Hallström. (Many Stockholm appartments looks like that though - typical for the art nouveau era, and built mostly between 1894 and 1914.)
You are right, it's the same director Lasse Hallström's apartment. 😀
One of my favourite ABBA tracks too.
This song is such a gem. It does have a kind of reggae island vibe. If you really want a tropical island vibe song, you should please react to Move on. My all time fave Abba song ❤️
Hello you really must React to ABBA 🎶That's Me 🎵...its one of there best yet hardly played its excellent !! Love from Australia 🇦🇺🎶🎵🌻
You are not far off! I read somewhere that the work name for this song was ”Hawaii”.😜👍
they wrote unforgettable music. I've never met a music lover who has not heard at least one adba song. and most people who've followed them also know almost all their songs by heart. that's including me
best abba song
'Dancing Queen' was their only number 1 in the US.
"Take a chance on me" was also Top 3 in USA a year later and sold more copies there than DQ at the time.
The fabulous ABBA....a favourite track of mine, alongside The Winner Takes it All. Despite the upbeat tempo, this is a sad song. My chief 'criticism' of Benny and Bjorn (the songwriters) is that they portray everything in songs like these from the point of view that the woman has somehow failed.

And yes, its the same apartment. It was director video apartment. !! Good eye
If you like ABBA, you should check out the musicals Mamma mia 1 and 2
