I dunno, it's just kind of a good song.
Carson McKee on the Eastman guitar. Drop D capo 1
Josh Turner on the Gibson banjo. I took the resonator off for this one to make it a little quieter. Banjo tuning is FBbFBbC
I don't have tabs.

I apologise for anything bad I've ever said about the banjo.
Why'd you ever say anything bad about banjos? They're awesome!
th-cam.com/video/forqmom3YuY/w-d-xo.html
I am a banjo, i forgive you.
Definition of "perfect pitch" - when you throw an accordion into a dumpster . . . and it lands on a banjo! (Actually, I own and LOVE both of those instruments.)
@@Marble_Tree Thought you were a tree
cat : *trying to sleep*
Josh : YEEEES I'VE BEEEN BROKEN HEARTEEEED !!!
1:26 wakes up the sleeping cat :-)
😂😂😂😂
I don't think Josh's cat is woken by singing & guitar any more. Heck if there's no singing and guitar going on it probably freaks out and wonders what is behind the strange silence.
Awesome stuff. I think y'all might like my stuff too! Thanks for checking it out! th-cam.com/channels/ute776iouHmXa60tv4gX9Q.html
@@mikepang123 The way his head jolts up makes me think he's gonna savagely attack Carson for waking him.
People at the start:
Mamma mia on a banjo?
People at the end:
MAMMA MIA ON A BANJO!
This cover helped me to realize just how incredibly well-written this song is. I never noticed how good the lyrics are!
i thought exact same thing
Yo, Bjorn and Benny were Monsters. Go back and look at some of the other songs and it is mind blowing how good the craftsmanship can be.
All the songs they sing are CRISP and clear... would rather hear these guys than the original bands.
Yes! Very much.
All ABBA song was greatly written
I could stand in a big Japanese river to this.
narutolover 666 I feel bad for him... He's such a good person, how could someone cheat on him??
Haha. Someone please explain this comment?
Ricky Anthony there is a video by Austin Webber (I believe that’s his name) singing this song in a river in Japan. He made the video because he had planned the trip to Japan with his girlfriend until he found out she cheated on him, so he went with his dad and made a bomb ass cover and video of his antics.
@@htggytfytt1 Thanks!
Somebody needs to give Austin Weber a hug
If this isn’t played at my funeral, I’m not going.
Dude lmao
Same 😁😁😁
ghost will be around
George Brindley you're not going hmm....wkwkwk 😂
Liked it to 666
George Brindley souper
This, my friends, is a perfect example of what a good arrangement is. Two instruments that complement each other, they often switch roles between harmony/melody, but they never clash. Their rythmic patters also find a way to be in different regions. Many people try to use two (or more) instruments in a song, and they often end up accenting the same beats, and it makes the whole multi-instrument approach meaningless. This video is awesome.
Layering instruments playing the same rhythm isn't always a bad thing, there is such a thing as layering. This is an amazing arrangment, but not doing what they did is fine too.
And written by Swedes!
I couldn't stop smiling throughout the entire song. The banjo, the zen cat, everything is so precious!
The cat is a paid actor
I’d not even spotted the cat until I read your comment 😁
@@bikescience1 Same, and I've probably watched this like 50 times.
ABBA did a nice cover of this song
Yeah, but it wasn't as good as this!
Dusty Turtle don’t disrespect abba like that 😷😷
@@hexbolt9390 No offense intended, but ABBA had 4 members and a whole band. These guys are a duo playing live.
Dusty Turtle and I was not the one who compared them, i agree they shouldn’t be compared because they’re two different types of musicians. That’s why i replied.
Always that comment... Corona says HI!
Imagine these two drunk on a karaoke stage!
Hahahah I'd pay for that.
One imagines that is how they became inspired to do this cover. ABBA on bango isn't something a rational mind conjures up!
I wanna see that
If these went to a bar, got drunk, you will see the end of the world !
@kfufDNIM: Check out their "Rocky Racoon" cover with Reina del Cid and Toni Lindgren in a hotel room (they were touring together),. Make sure to watch the outtake starting at 3:40. It's hysterical: th-cam.com/video/yLIBbQVhoDA/w-d-xo.html
Saw you on Swedish television tonight. A few seconds from this video was in a ABBA celebration program, together with a lot of other clips från youtube artists also singing Mamma Mia. Tonight (April 6 2024) it´s 50 years since ABBA won the Eurovision song contest.
I love watching extremely talented people like these two cover a song like this! The cat on the couch, on the other hand, was utterly unimpressed.
Default cat expression
I mean, it's just noise for him. Iirc barely any animal besides humans is capable of understanding music
That cat is just used to it by this point
Kitty was definitely grooving to it on the inside.
@@oqo3310cows definitely love jazz
Gotta say, I never expected an ABBA cover from the boys. Not complaining though!
@@VitalityMassage I wonder how the cat will feel about that
My thoughts at 0:03: “uh, ABBA and a banjo...?”
My thoughts at 3:59: “YUP THAT WAS ABBA AND A BANJO AND THAT WAS BEAUTIFUL”
Exactly I don't even know this song but they did it really well
banjos go with any song imo
ABBA used banjo in many of their songs.
Being able to see people who found their purpose in life. And living to the fullest.
Is a pleasure to see 😊
Best cover on the internet.
The cat may not have been impressed but I enjoyed it.
Cats are never impressed.. part of their "charm" I guess.. XD
cat seemed to get its own licks in ...
Actually, my cat started purring during the song. Weird. I guess felines dig ABBA.
The 26 downvotes are indifferent felines
@@lylestavast7652 I noticed that too, what a rude cat!
why is nobody talking about the juicy slap of the guitar in the middle
Paul tv There were 2 juicy slaps!
Josh: mamma mia
Guitar: spank me, sugar daddy
I like Carson's tinkling E notes. All together a great rendition.
Or the cat in the middle......
Approved Slapp
This might be the best cover of any song I have ever heard I CANNOT stop listening absolutely tremendous gentlemen, bravo.
I dont know which is better, Josh's fist at 3:28 or Carson pointing to the ceiling in their cover of Folsom Prison at 2:25
They're equally awesome.
You gotta go for gold, man!
this gave me enough serotonin to live through my entire life and more
Barely getting through this day
never thought abba+banjo can fit this good - brilliant, just brilliant -chapeau
Loved it!
@@Dadsterbug1 ,oduf h
Banjo goes with everything.
why is the french word for hat at the end of this comment
@@littlesnowflakepunk855 I think he wanted to say hats off
A short clip of this video was in Swedish television in an Abba tribute concert tonight
A new frontier. Abba captured by 1 banjo, 1 guitar and 2 great singers!
There is something endearing about performers who seem as genuinely delighted by their own musicality, for its own sake, as we are as the audience. It's the whole idea of joie de vivre and it's beautiful to behold.
That always reminds me of the Muppet Show.
Ditto. Superbly put!
@Marc Hills: such a beautiful comment, thx. and sooo true!
@bad1dobby Yes, it's really super.
Yes it is !!!
Amen 🤗💜🤗
Josh's pure joy...the sleeping kitty...Carson on the high harmony...this is Good Content
Oh so his name is carson..wait a minute..your the lady that cover's elvis song with josh right? Heyya nice to meet you lady. You got a new fans from Indonesia, nice harmony on your cover song by the way. 😃😃😃

Yes!
This guy can play any instrument - amazing
With headphones on, after that amazing banjo intro, that guitar chiming in is absolutely beautiful.
Nice to see Dwight and Andy in their younger years.
Dude they need to cover take me home country roads asap
That’s Eric Forman sir
which ones which
I can't unsee it now thanks
Hahaha. How hilarious is it that I JUST STARTED WATCHING the office for the FIRST TIME two days ago and now I see this comment and only therefore understand this joke 🤣🤣 Wow. The universe is strange.
3:29 Josh, I'm dead.
@@pandaman1968 Far Out, man!
how much is this cover blowing my mind is amazing.. i'm not an Abba Fan .. but boys, you made it so good ! I'm putting it on air on my radio station saturday !
Love it when a player is as much into it as Josh is in this one.
John Lennon and Paul McCartney did a good job as young boys covering Abba
Fun fact: John and Paul may have first met outside of a music shop named Abba.
This is a joke future generations.
@@newjack2166 Ok Boomer
@Joel C (fka Lacie Green) Ima Gen Xr.
New Jack lmao why you deeping it , boomer
Love how Carson switches between low harmony and high harmony and how Josh can take a disco song and make it sound like it was written for banjo. Amazing.
What talent, coordination, & multitasking. Wow!
The harmonies during the chorus, so simple yet so beautiful!
You can literally feel how fun this cover has been for them through the screen
i love the way Josh looks at his friends while they're performing together. you can tell that he's thinking "you're so talented and i love doing this with you"
Or 'lets kiss after the camera goes off'
@@obs4281 very probable alternative
I think same. They have great tuning together
Brilliant! Harmony flawless! You guys are the best together! Keep up the great music
Wow!! These guys are ingenious and amazing! Wonderful rendition!!
3:28 reminds me of what Carson did in Folsom Prison Blues
Go for gold.
@@rapidcabin You've gotta point when you do it, too.
Had this exactly same feeling!!!! "You gotta go for gold, man!!!"
@@tiagocaldas Same! Same!
That’s my favourite they have ever done
This is entertaining in a way words don’t describe
My fav cover band doing my fav pop group! Win win!!!
Matt Aus ...sheer performance brilliance :)
The joy on Josh's face while they're playing...incredible.
The tension between guitar banjo and harmonies off the chart. Well done guys!
It's 1am here - forgot about being tired for 4 minutes and was amazed instead.
Who would have thought - a banjo in an ABBA cover?
I seriously don't understand how these guys are not famous yet. Like mainstream famous.
I could not agree more. I am addicted. Miraculously and to my glee they were in my small town Wednesday performing in an intimate refurbished music hall. I can't come close to properly describe how exceptional they were. And their humble, fun, engaging, genuine and sincere personalities are every bit what you would expect. My son and I are still savoring the joy of having seen and met them in person.
Because in order to get to that level you have to sell your soul which isnt worth it. These guys are financially free.
Well, do you SHARE their videos? Do you tell people about them? Or do you just listen?
I like them not famous more
Because they are actual musicians
what a fantastic cover! So full of soul and passion with great guitar skill and stellar voices!
keep coming back to this. one of my faves
Leaves me smiling. Especially loved Carson's mandolin strumming and solos, Josh's superb banjo and Beatle--esque head shaking. Always love watching these two great friends make music together. Thanks guys.
@@VeeVeeVeeV I think he means the tremolo bit on guitar.
True words
Josh playing ABBA while dressed as a BEE 🐝
More like dressed kinda like Waldo.
Shades of Paul Simon on SNL
Josh is just so versatile 🤔 🐝☺
He's playing a song AND producing honey.
@@thebarf9235 That's sweet! 😆 I've just had a sqizz over your channel & I notice that you like a lot of music that I like. When I first heard George Ezra's Budapest on the radio, I thought it was Gordon Lightfoot doing a comeback until I checked it out on TH-cam 😊🙋♀️
I can't help it, this is one of my favorite covers that you two have done. It's just beautiful stuff man.
Love how much Josh seems to love the fun of this, both of them actually. Also great great cover
I hate how much I loved this lol
LOL
Why?
A guitar, a banjo, ABBA and a cat, am I in heaven?
Loved the harmonies btw
xd love the cat there xd hahah
Omg! The cat! 🐱❤
You guys took an awesome song up several levels. Incredible job!!🌟⭐🌟⭐🌟
I just can’t get over how brilliant it is.
An unplugged banjo/guitar cover of an ABBA track is probably the last thing I'd call rock'n'roll... but dammit if it wasn't ROCK'N'ROLL!
This makes me want to find a friend to cover and make music with
lily. That’s exactly what I think when I watch these videos.
If only
Same, if we were the age I would with you but Idk how old you are lol, you are probably way older than me.
Dude, try! One of the best feelings in the world to make music with one another!
@@jordynk2976 i am an old geezer, but have jammed with people of all ages. musical tastes are not limited by age
You really show how well constructed this song is. Great cover!
I randomly just remembered this video. I really hope you're out there lighting the world on fire. You're truelly gifted.
Josh, your voice is evolving in huge steps lately.
Yes I think so too eh
First Josh Turner Guitar video I saw was Funky Town. His voice was just perfect then.
Absolutely, his vocals have markedly improved. Kudos Josh and Carson.
That and his stage persona is becoming more open and joyful.
The cat is obviously a poor judge of good music. He slept throught the whole song.
Well, then would you stay awake if cats were singing in meow language?
99% of all calico's are FEMALE.
I bet it is a she.
jeffrey mcfadden well her name is Marie so that pretty much tells it doesn’t it?
Woke up just before the good bit at 3:28. She knew it was coming...😄😄
Bro that cat is just vibin with the music, let it be.
Favourite song these guys play together. So fun!
Josh's passion, PASSION, for this song, gives me endless life and joy
My boy Josh over here lookin like a bumble bee
Shirt cute af
Well if this isn’t the best thing I’ve ever heard
Grow up
Why would she grow up?
Grow up to do what?
Appreciate an amazing performance less?
@@jacobarnard1578 no u
You two are a bright light during these dark times. Thank you for the music.
I just love the joy in your faces as you sing this song.
This is so incredible. I think I might actually like it more than the original.
you mean this isn't the original? lol ;)
every time i come across this vid i stop and listen. .. it never happened with the original version...
Anyone ever notice how much easier it is to understand the lyrics done by cover artists than the original? This was certainly an exsmple.
@@thomassullins8690 Yes, definitely!! That's also why I like this version.
@@thomassullins8690 and that there's no weird, creepy close up camera shots of the band members in this version. That put me off way more than anything in the original version😂😂
Carson, my man. Those high harmonies are on point.
These boys never cease to amaze me! Incredible talent. Keep it up, please!😃
Josh and Carson are simply amazing. Loved their performance. Great job guys. God bless
Getting Lennon and McCartney vibes from you guys at times. Sik as always 🤙
Y
totally
Joe Jeremiah OMG YES
Really? I always get Buddy Holly and McCartney vibes lol
I get Lennon x Rivers Cuomo vibes lol
an A+ job.
I’ve listened to this multiple times and enjoy it more each time. It’s more than just the sound it’s the interaction and fun expressed in making the video.
This video makes me immensely happy. Thank you guys so much for making this.
@3:29 "You gotta go for gold man" "And you gotta point when you do it"
willgreen84 good one
I understood that reference😏
Nice.
3:30 is something I never knew I needed in my life
Been a long time since I listened to this one but you kiddos still and always make me happy. Great to see you guys having so much fun.
There is so much care and attention to this arrangement my Christ. It’s genius
Nothing quite like a cheeky ABBA cover on banjo to start the day! Brilliant and hilarious. And the cat slept throughout.
well, it actually sat up to lick its bottom half way through - not sure if that was a comment or not!
UNBELIEVABLE
LOOK AT THEM PULL THIS OFF
AND THEY KNOW IT !
These two is the best duo and really my favorite.
I love how all your covers do justic, and more, for the original.
you fellas would shred american pie, id love a cover of that song
Yesssss
yes please!
Plzzz
I second the motion!
I absolutely love how visibly happy Josh is in this, especially at 2:21....oh my god I LOVE IT
Good sound and love seeing Josh’s enjoyment. The expressions of joy!
Man - that's a tough one to conquer and you guys did it up right! Fabulous musicianship and could feel Josh's joy/relief when you guys were rounding the corner to take it home. Great stuff!
I’m sure Josh enjoy every song he sings... but you can see his heart and soul on his face with this one
A good song is a good song is a good song. Great interpretation.
Carson, love your voice. The two of you sound wonderful, thank you
Back again, I LOVE this video! PERFECT!! Can't get any better! Thanks Josh & Carson, You're the Greatest~
Banjo + Abba = WHO KNEW!
BANJABBA
@@djura92 HAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHahahahaah
this has been stuck in my head all week and here I am listening again.
Yeah its popped in my head a few times and I didn't even know the original ABBA song lol...but the guys do a great job
Same :)
Some are just plain unassumingly gifted.
So freakin’ clever and brilliant and wonderful. Huge smile on my face. So enjoyable! So much talent!
Carson's Balalaika impression at 01:21 is priceless!
Two geniuses having fun!
Josh, my friend Jon and I saw you when you were on tour in Albuquerque. He's a guitarist, and I'm an aspiring singer (in musical theater) and I have to say that you two are truly some of the biggest inspirations I've had in my young life. Seeing you two grow together throughout your videos, and always, always putting on amazing pieces makes me realize why I love music. Thank you so much for everything you do.
I just can’t get over how brilliant it is. Thank you
Amazing voice. You both together create magic
