When u start listening to one ABBA song, believe me, it will be followed by a chain of ABBA songs
Yes i hope
12 songs and still counting...
@@ginnamurcia4809 Hahahahahaaaaa...same here going on 13 actually....heheheheeheeeee...
There is nothing we can do.
100
Part of growing up is admitting and internalizing that no matter how much metal you've headbanged to growing up, ABBA will forever be timeless classics.
Yes!
This comment is one of the most Swedish thing I ever read
Y
Awesome
I concur
Imperfect teeth, normal skin, beautiful feathered hair, realistic lyrics, natural voices, can anyone not understand why these 4 people were superstars? I love them. And always will.
You have the privilege to notice all those details now but back in 1970 nothing you are describing was actually important: teeth, skin, hair. back then there was no TH-cam or even a way people can replay this video.
pure talent
It's good to know there is one person on the planet who is perfect. Were they going to elect you god next week?
Точно так . Естественны и такие милые , обожаю ❤❤
Makes them more human and beautiful. Can't stand todays pop stars with perfect white teeth. Looks unnatural.
Abba is the best! Still in 2024!
And i like abba agnetha kelly family i like paddy so mach he a nice man
This is how addiction starts, one ABBA song after another.
All weekend I listened to them.
@Donna Villacis i am obsessed lately for some reason. Its crazy!
@Donna Villacis Me too.
Put down the crack pipe
Tell me about it.
The Beatles may the most *influential* band of all time, but no band will ever define pop music the way Abba did.
sadly pop today is nothing like Abba.
The Beatles sucked.

It’s 2024 and this is as awesome as it ever was! ABBA are legends.
for sure. I would say top 5 musical bands and / or performers of all time, across ALL genres. I would say top 3, but let's keep it laxed and say top 5 :)
I agree❤❤❤
Yea
Yes .. I love ABBA since I was a Kid
Who think this is one of ABBA best song ever? ❤❤❤
Elles étaient toutes bonnes, ce groupe était génial.
Fully agree !! ❤
Geniales
I do
A few years ago in an interview Benny Anderson indicated that Knowing Me Knowing You and Dancing Queen are the two ABBA recordings he is particularly proud of.
They are addictive..you cannot listen to just one song.
so true
Much like eating one potato chip!😎
True. Too many good ones.
So true, and I made a playlist of it : th-cam.com/video/xFrGuyw1V8s/w-d-xo.html
@@triciajohansen7124 Or a piece of chocolate..
The most mature break up song I've ever heard, and I love it.
Michael MacLeod probably why despite their divorces .Agnetha and Bjourn still respect each other.
Even Benny and Frida maintain cordial relations.
@@hawaali4115 they have kids together
Efosa Odaro yeah they have kids together.
björn from abba stated that this song was not directly about them, but rather "90% fictional"
agreed..this is profesional Songs beetween them..thanks abba,agnetha and ani-fridas,so beautiful,how can this two man let her go..
In 2024 this is as fresh and even more relevant than in the 70's! ABAB Forever.
I am listening to this in 2024 is there anyone else?
Not to compare to nowadays' scam
I am
me :) 2024 is the year when both my ABBAmania and I turn 30 :)
I am from Tamilnadu, a State of India
During 1981, I used to listen this music in tape recorder cassette
I am listening to this song in 2022 is their anyone else?
Pick me! Love them! Never get tired of Abba
Me...right now!!!👍👍👍
Nobody knows
My brother who died was a huge fan. 😢. After 10 + years of a relationship it is time to go my own way. It feels a bit sad, but also ok .
Of course. I am listening too
Their voices were made for eachother.
It's like a musical miracle that can't be repeated.
100% agreed
Chris can't put it better...a musical miracle indeed
Никогда....😴😭😭😭
so true
Absolutely without a doubt! Amen to that true Statement!❤👍🎶
The hamonizing voices of these ladies still gives me goosebumps.
Isn't ABBA just brilliant, always? What more can you say?
The lush and narcotic effect of Frida and Agnethas voices combined, is unreal.
+1
+2
Ya it's a dreamy feeling you can relate with as you listen to there voices and the music. Love it.
took me till adulthood to find the word -"haunting"
A couple bands had it and IT only existed in the 70s!
Sooo true
88 years old here and my wife and I love this group. No other group or singers can measure up to them !
just THE BEATLES !!!!
@@jesusmartinez59 Brits go,well with Swedes.
Their real names are Safinaz and Münever Dirveşe.

ABBA Music
Is a forever TIMELESS 👏
2024 Anyone ???
This is one of their best songs 🙂
Yup
like there 70dz hair and not to shabby of singers either
NOT.
BELIEVE on the Lord Jesus Christ and you will be saved his promise God bless you!
It’s absolute insane how good this is as a piece of music. Vocalization, harmonies, contrapuntal secondary vocals, instrumentation, arrangement, overdubbing and sound engineering - it’s all off the freaking charts. There’s no pop act or production team that could come close to producing a track this good nowadays.
Why can't you just praise the song without dissing an entire generation of talented artists? Good music is made yoday whether you like it or not.
@@amac203 Because I don’t agree with you and I meant exactly what I said. Let’s be clear, I didn’t grow up with ABBA, and I’m not boomer. Most of today’s popular music is objectively corporatized, subjectively simplistic, crap. That doesn’t mean there aren’t talented musicians out there, but the major labels and production teams are exceedingly risk averse, which leads to everything sounding the same.
You can pinpoint exactly when this became a problem: The 1996 telecommunications act, which deregulated broadcast markets in the US, allowing a small handful of large corporations to own multiple stations in the same market, across the US (previously, number of total stations owned and number of stations in a market were tightly regulated). In just 2 years, 6 decades of intense competition for market share was ended, as independent stations were bought up by large companies and the markets were segmented by demographic and music type.
This led to market conditions where independent artists, smaller labels, independent stations, etc., simply ceased to exist. Those were the mechanisms that allowed “breakthroughs” and really interesting changes in the pop landscape. Since the late 90’s, the industry has become increasingly ossified, with the same dynamics extended into the online music arena: just a few collusory monoliths controlling the vast quantity of promotional effort and top-tier access to distribution.
The entire major media complex is dealing with variations of the same theme: risk aversion, repetition, spectacle over substance and an objectively, and subjectively, measurable drop in quality. Much of this stems from too much control in the hands of a small number of giant (increasingly dysfunctional) corporations whose current business model is predicated on dictating what’s popular, versus innovation and discovery.
@@smakfu1375 You are saying that of all the people in the entire world who create and make pop music, none of them are any good. This is a completely ridiculous concept. And saying any kind of music is "objectively" crap is idiotic. The reason that corporates make music in a certain way is because that is what sells, i.e. millions of people out there LIKE it. That's why pop music changes and it does continuously change, it's because taste changes. It's been happening since the dawn of time and it will continue to happen. In 50 years people will be doing the same song and dance you are now, but about today's music.
But also, mainstream pop music is not the only music that is being made and to discount the talent of music producers who may not be part of a major label or continue to make music for the love of it is just laughable.
.
@@amac203 but nothing half as good as this.
@@amac203 none of them are even close to being as brilliant as the greats of the past, youre not get another abba for all the same reasons therell never be another clint eastwood or jack nicholson or mick jagger, coz thats how it is, the people of today arent the same, they may have a decent amount of talent, but they aint geniuses / they dont have it.
They perfected singing in harmony. No autoune or lip syncing. This is what real music sounds like.
You got that right
U get the point.
This is perfect music engineering.
@@rogerjohansen9270 damn right!
76
It's 3.30am, UK and listening to Abba. Songs from late 1970s in year 2023. Still love them. Truly timeless classics. I thank them for their music.
Same here buddy. i was up until 2am this morning playing ABBA (had to ask my manager to start 1 hour later today) and just wishing i was bought up in the late 70's 80's! what a band!
The best

Welcome back, ABBA, your songs are pure magic.
So so pumped!!
Extraordinariamente mágicos por siempre
This is one of my all-time favorite ABBA tracks. Which is difficult because I love them *all*
oyes...!! now only shit music
@@depechebest whether you’re talking about their new music or music like this, back off!
ABBA is the highest quality of pop music ever composed.
They are Beatles-quality-esque. But Beatles had a more levelled tracks IMO. Their numbers on their later albums all had a similar quality. Not one or two hits and the rest lesser quality. The only band that has managed that album after album.
Yes , true absolutely .
ever produced.
there are better compositions out there, but the studio work here is unmatched.
This is about ABBA...not the Beatles. Why are they being compared to them? ABBA💕.10/25/20
@@dannyramos2486 The statement was that this was the highest quality pop music ever created, that subject is broader. Becuase both are similar quality. The Beatles are the template for modern music so why would they not be compared with them? That is an honour.
Come on.....who dosn't love abba?!! I was born in the early 70's so i grew up with them
One of the best pop songs ever.
If loving Abba is wrong, then I don't wanna be right.
Dang right.
Me too
Supernatural:)))
Why wrong?
@@dianatoma3277 Me three.💕🌹 04/04/21
A masterpiece. They don't write songs like that anymore. Every sound is perfection. The melody flows like a stream around rocks and pebbles. The voices, the instrumentation, the lyrics. Perfect harmony. And the video is so poignant and moving. Beautiful through and through.
Known me known you. Hi
props to Ruthgerson on bass and Tretow on drums and mixing. + Sony for cutting edge sound tech. The Polar studio was by far the most advanced in the world by 1980.
bo
one man wrote this Benney
They speak English so well! Albeit they're Swedish
Probably my favorite ABBA song, but always makes me feel sad
Pure talent. The best band in the history as far as I am concerned
They complimented each other, like it was all meant to be. I wish they were still together. Their music will never end, ever.
Elise Walker 'complemented' actually. Common spelling mistake. Like 'stationary' and 'stationery'. I think Abba surprised even themselves. The two ladies were originally backing singers for Benny and Björn, in 1970. Apart from Agnetha, they were touching thirty-years-old when they sprung 'Waterloo' on the Anglosphere in '74. In those intervening years, their persistence ultimately paid dividends: how excited they must have been to figure out that although English was not their native language, they could still make a huge impact. They worked out their sound.
I think they’re reuniting in 2018 for a tour or concert with r something idk
Dustshoe q
Elise Walker A Amazing
I love those 2 girls there amazing
I'm 18 years old and ABBA's songs helped me overcome depression. I am so grateful for that! thanks for the music
It's the magical (and healing) attribute of their music .
Helped us all .
It's because they're angels
I was a young boy when this wonderful music was released - it still hits me with a wonderful emotion - better than any pill you can find! And I know depression. God Bless you !!!
My dear 18 year beauty! U do not have to suffer by depression ,u have to suffer of it for a lifetime. Better suffer of loving .Anything.
I'm 39 and I still enjoy their music all of these years later
I'm listening to this music in 2024 and it's still the greatest. Abba is such a great group. Never get tired of listening to them.
ABBA defined the 70s. Best decade ever!
Who’s revisiting this song after Abba’s comeback ? 😀
I am
Yep. I am.
Me too
@@Midnightmidway That's dumbing it down a little.
Meeeeee hahaha love this group so much
Benny and Bjorn don't get nearly enough credit for their role in ABBA's one of a kind sound. Their arrangements were god tier.
Tengo la impresión que Benny y Bjorn son los que se quedan con la tajada del león, 3:22
They also wrote everything, so like that's quite significant
Capital G for God
And also sang harmonies in most of the songs.
Benny Andersson and Björn Ulveus wrote everything.. they are not at all discredited worldwide!
What are you taking about?
No auto-tune...just all natural, wonderful voices & harmony! Fantastic group! It's sad their marriages didn't last, and it is sad the group didn't continue and provide us with more wonderful ABBA songs!
You don’t understand what auto-tune is or is more frequently used for.
@@jpetersgoyanks "Auto-Tune is a digital audio processing tool that adjusts the pitch of recorded voices and instruments. It's primarily used for pitch correction, but it can also be used to add vibrato and create other vocal effects." Not available during ABBA's time period.
This is a beautyful song. I met ABBA fifty years ago and I am 71 know, I will remember them for ever young.
How did they manage to write and perform such wonderful songs when their hearts must have been breaking?
This song was before any of their break-ups... just good acting ;)
They needed MONEY. MONEY
MONEY MONEY MONEY!! And still performed
@Ann Green Agnetha and Björn broke up in 1979, Benny and Frida broke up in 1981. This song was released in 1976.
@@JF-sh2sm The song of the broke up was, the winner take is all,
This was written 3 or 4 years before the break-ups started. You are thinking of 'The Winner takes it All' which was written around the time of Agnetha and Bjorn's break-up.
A=AMAZING
B=BEAUTIFUL
B=BRILLIANT
A=ARTISTS
One the best definition for these eternal artists.
is that what it stood for ?

This is timeless.
The women in the 70s and years before the 70s were very beautiful very natural, next years is not same, I dont not; the women of ABBA VERY BEAUTIFUL, NATURALLY BEAUTIFUL!!!!
They don’t make songs like these anymore. A true gem!
They have new songs
@@lorenaelizabethch585 they said "like these"
This song was recorded in 1976. It still sounds as fresh as a daisy. My goodness, how far ahead of their time they were. Long lasting melodies, perfect production, strong arrangements and impeccable vocals. Those days are gone. Fortunately we can enjoy the music Abba made back 45 years ago
Amen
If ABBA is the product of the second world war, it was totally worth it.
Yep. The production is premium grade A. Phenomenal
A hit once again in 1992.
Not very appreciated but on all of Abba's songs I love the late Rutger Gunnarsson's bass runs.
I was feeling down so the doctor told me to take two ABBA songs every day 🐈⬛🐈♥️
The best medicine!
I agree with your doctor. Nothing makes you feel better than ABBA!
An ABBA a day keeps the doctor away
in 2024 I am here and thinking that how lucky those people on that time. no internet , no rush , no social media , no mental mess and mental fatigue , nice , melodic musics... respect between people , nice , longlife friendships and relationships... such nice times...
yes, I can say the years from 65-~1995+/- were the best, anyway in my life! Worryfree.....
Así es grandes años la vida era bella sin tanta tecnología

@@lorefinelisha6512 Hi Elisha! This greeting to you from Tanzania. Thanks
Absolutely 💯!
They don't make them like this anymore.
No crying, no sobbing, no hysterics, just resignation, acceptance that you've done all you can and now living with the bittersweet memories.
Too true
ABBA the Voice
It's still true 🤥
Oh yeah
Certainly some of them thought they were headed to better things..... then they all ended up as zero's.
I'm 61 in 2024, still love ABBA, and I always will as one of my all time favorite groups. My mom died on Thanksgiving Day last year from brain cancer, she was 80. ABBA was her favorite group, she was a huge fan of music like this. Now my Mom dances in Heaven as a Dancing Queen. So when I get to thinking about my Mom, missing her, I can go back in time and remember her by listening to ABBA. Thank you ABBA for being part of my childhood growing up with your great music, and helping me get through my Mom's passing. You are family to me. This coming May 12th is Mother's Day, my family's first without Mom. But ABBA will be there to help me remember Mom.
same age Musicman. Remember falling hard for Frida at the age of 13 when they were on the Midnight Special in '76......a lifetime ago.
One of the greatest quartets of musicians ever assembled.
A song that's a total masterpiece from the first note to the last.
Absolutely.
Andersson/Ulvaus was the seventhies Lennon/McCartney 🧐
@@rogerjohansen9270 I agree.When Bjorn and Benny were at their best their songs could be compared to The very best songs John and Paul came up with.
Yes, like so many of their songs.
True
When you hear ABBA’s songs almost 50 years later they sound as good back then as they do now an ABBA fan forever! ❤️
👍👍
👍🏻
Comsumate recording artists from the 1970s.
Quel chemin depuis "Waterloo"
..always...
Brings back so many childhood memories. My mom looked like Agnetha and had long blonde hair just like her. Love this music and will always listen to it.
So grateful that they did all these music videos. Back in the day, not every one makes them.
That bass line. Those guitars. Those vocals. The production and video. The lyrics. That timeless melody. I love ABBA and this is among my faves...and of those there are plenty. What a band!!
In my opinion this is their very best work.
Magical
Не уверен,что в словах песенки больше смысла,чем в детской глиняной свистульке.
Sin duda ABBA un lujo para mis oídos que decir de esas bellísimas damas las más lindas del planeta por siempre ❤❤❤❤❤❤
True, production these days is weak or really bad.
It´s a mystery to me how they could turn a painful experience and existential crisis like a breakup or divorce into a timeless pop song.Those guys and gals are true artists.
Fleetwood Mac did the same
👍👍👍👋👋👋
Супер❤❤❤
One of my fave ABBA songs. The relentless drum beat is so hypnotic.
Anni is soooo beautiful, and her face framed by the fur parka is just incredible. Then, there's her voice. Makes me glad to have been alive 'then', and now!
My divorce was finalized 20 years ago, and I was SO glad about it, but every time I hear this song it makes me cry. No one intends to end up divorced, and Agnetha did an interview where she mentioned that both couples tried to make their divorces as painless as possible, but it just isn’t possible. Benny and Bjorn truly are two of the best writers this world has ever known.
very thoughtful reply - "no one intends to end up divorced" so very true. Sending some love your way
I'm 72 and have been listening to ABBA since the beginning! I am always amazed at how their different songs seem to apply to my life throughout the decades and this song hit home with my divorce. Love ABBA!
¡Me too! I'm 72 now, and listening ABBA in my divorce and time after. They help me in my life ever. Excuse, english isn't my language.
مافائدة الذكريات والحياة وكل شيء في هذه الحياة اذا كان بعده الموت ؟!!

I am listening ❤
Usia anda gak beda jauh saya juga senang dengar lagunya ABBA
This song is a masterpiece
I feel so so lucky to have grown up during this time. I was 13 when this song came out. Loved it then, love it now. Abba is and will always be fantastic.
I thank Sweden for ABBA!
ABBA was definitely ahead of their time. THIS is music.
That 4K restoration is OUTSTANDING.
I went through a bitter divorce in 2014. My last walk through the family home, I sang this and cried. It was the best I could do.
I am so sorry this happened to you.
So sorry
Agnetha and Frida are what angels look like. This band will never get old ❤️
Frida!!!
The way the light catches their flowing locks, the soft focus, the sadness in their eyes. The girls tear me up, too.
....but it passed 'Will Pack' by?
I agree.
Agnetha is still a pretty lady..
Haha!
Martin Hugh Henley yeah that was a break up song.
Maestros and those voices were impeccable
This song is so sad and that guitar solo melody is so happy. The juxtaposition is incredible. Make a sad song, sound happy...ABBA is one of a kind. Never been another like them.
The two Abba girls create the most amazing vocal harmonies! I just love them!
who is still watching ABBA in 2020?
i am, ABBA it takes me to a place i have never been
So am I. Their songs bring me back to myself, when I am in stress and lost.)
Me me me me me💖💖💖💖
Well I still am if I make it until next week!

What a beautiful vocal Frida has ❤
To think about this song describes these two couples of their painful split and divorce it breaks my heart. This song strongly resonates with me also. Thank you for your music ABBA. 🙏💕🌹❤️
Frida voice+Agnetha voice= Pure Magic.
yes firida agneta fondurful super song 1978 sveden team turkıye very nays
But she is old
Only ABBA, with that INCREDIBLE harmony of the two girls, could give me the shivers, it was so perfect !! NOBODY else !!
Forever and ever...
Agnetha and Frida had such an amazing "voice." Perfect harmony, perfectly in synch.

These people are legends
This group were singing about their own lives , and we (over 50s ) watched it getting played out 74 to 80s in real time in their songs .
It won't ever be done again , what a joy to see ,and hear a real life drama
ABBA's vocal magic is on par with the Beatles.
Who are the Beatles ? - some Rap band , no doubt ?
@@peterjames7073 you dont know who the Beatles were wow they were in the British invasion of the 60s they had some good songs but I would never compare them to ABBA I think ABBA was much better

Divorce is the death of a marriage and it can hurt like hell. Give yourself a chance to process the grief. This song is perfectly written
Wonderful band, simply adore this girls awesome band
hey Suzanne perhaps thats why never marriages any body also dont no love
@@robertalbrethsen5392 aw cant be that cynical. Love can be a great way to pass the time.
My divorce was relief. But the relationship after my wife the end broke my heart forever. ABBA lyrics are direct and they wrote somgs they liked for them and not the public. Today they stand as the number 3 band for all time sales. Apparently it is predicted they may be number one eventually
Perfect divorce song
I was a little boy when this music, this band was big. Those days i was more close to ACDC and stuff like this. Now i´m 58 years old and i really love this music. The half-life of today's music is never as long as the music of ABBA and music from the 70s and 80s.
hearing one song just makes you wanna hear another, next thing you know its midnight and youre still going. by far the best musical group ever. abba lets you feel life.
everytime I get on youtube lol
it makes you feel happy, without the need to explain it! Nostalgy plays its part too, as we were in our best years
when they started, me anyway ;o))
FRIDA AND AGNETHA VOICES COMBINED IS JUST MAKES ALL THEIR SONGS BEAUTIFUL.
i agree.
and the writers
Magic, just magic. Who can make songs like this today ?? It touched our souls, and still does, even 40 years later.
ABBA are without doubt one of the most important pop groups ever to grace the charts. Great melodies, great lyrics and brilliant vocals. Still as fresh in 2023 as they were in the 70... Brilliant, brilliant group ❤
One of the Best groups that I grew up with in the 70"s and 80"s. There songs are just so catchy and easy to listen too.
Best period of Abba: this brilliant song and ‘The name of the game’
Both sublime
Funny - these two are also my two favorite ABBA songs.
How Bjorn's lyrics create the hopelessness of the situation in the first verse is brilliant. 'Walking through an empty house, tears in my eyes' is simple but right to the point and your heart...I get goosebumps every time. This is ABBA & pop music (all genres) at their very very best.
Very well noticed, sir 👍🏻...
Thanks for putting this into words. I am not even an ABBA fan (more on the death metal side), but I love this song and this line always gets me for whatever reason.
Also, still trying to figure out why I like a song so much that is basically a display of sadness and loss.
For me, it's the verse: "In these all familiar rooms | Children would play ". Again, goosebumps.
And I don't even have children ;)
I read it as Bjork’s lyrics for one second ;)
It's interesting that I think it was Benny's piano that made most of the musical themes and Bjorn's lyrics added to that and of course the voices of Agnetha & Anni-Frid as the icing on the cake so to say but perhaps many people don't appreciate the input of Bjorn which I think was very important.
This single was released around about the time that I lost my first wife at the age of 28. The lyrics "Walking through an empty house with tears in my eyes" still haunt me to this day. A masterpiece of a song, but one that fills me with melancholy.
For me, it was my Fiancee; killed by a drunk driver 22 January 1995.
(But also, "If I can't have you" by Yvonne Elliman.)
You will see her again one day.
I'm sorry man
I don't know if it helps, but I'm so sorry for your loss, my best to you.
Sorry man :(
It's very hard to pick an outright favorite ABBA song. But, for some reason this one is up there on my list.
“Gifts for me, gifts for you” - SNL
UH-HUUUUUH!
How we loved them in the 1970’s. Most young ppl today have no idea how much fun we had dancing and listening to Abba. We really lived emotionally through their music in a way.
Ain't that the truth
Me and my friend group are in our twenties and abba is always running on every party or evening we spend together. It's the best
I feel bad for young people. Not being able to experience the 1970s
Its great that there's Mamma Mia movies, my 11 year old daughter loves to sing along all the songs in the movie!!!
As as a seven year old Abba fan back in the day, I confirm!
I know just about everybody loves Dancing Queen, but i have to say that this is my favorite ABBA song, such harmony and fantastic background vocals
Me same too, if ask my fav ABBA song, I always mention this first. Angel Eyes another so many to choose !.
