The most beautiful,tragic break-up song Ever composed!!!!!! Almost 39 years later and it still chokes me up!!!
41 years
Yes. I agree. I think it is the most beautiful and genuine song of a break up song sung most beautifully by Agnetha that I know of.
And now they back :)
beautiful
Everytime I'm listening to this song I imagine If Is this their way to show their feelings, I think was during the Time when Agneta anD Benny were separating as a couple. My imagination maybe....
100 years time, ABBA still be on the radio. Everyone loves ABBA.
I love ABBA, always did, always will.
New album on the way!
True !!!
I've been an ABBA fan for over 43 years.
Absolutely
ABBA. No cosmetic surgery. No auto tune. No tone changes. No fancy BS. Just stunning talent and amazing composers.
Sir you nailed it
You said it. Utter perfection!
So true!!
AND NO METAL OR TATOOS!! THE DID NOT DESECRATE THEIR OWN BODIES
Plastic surgery wasn’t really a thing in Europe at the time.
Her vocal range was insane
And sung live too, which only makes it so much more impressive.
So many 'live' performances on shows like this were really just the band syncing to the studio recording, but Abba actually did the performance live (the Bee Gees also did true live performances on TV shows back then).
As a Swede, I'm very proud of the legacy of Abba 😍😍🤩🤩
Ūú getur veriđ viss um ūađ.
You can be proud not just because of ABBA. Roxette, Ace of Base, Europe ... icons of music. Thank you Sweden for this music art.
Tú y todos estamos orgullosos de ellos. También aquí en España y en toda Europa. Son nuestros.
Agree!
one of the best female voices ever
This song proves that Agnetha is the greatest pop singer the world has ever seen. She is phenomenon. I love her angel voice.
She's great, but your comment is "the greatest" hyperbole ever.
@famkima royte true!👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
" Winner takes it al "is one of the most emotional songs ever!. every time listen to this song gives me goosebumps!. I feel like crying. I am 65 years old guy who still keeps listening to this song for 50 years!. never get enough off of it. Agnetta feels whatever sings!.
lol i bet youre over the moon now with new music !!! i cant think of anything else its official monkees do fly and the moon is made of bleu cheese and ABBA is back..
I can’t listen to this song, the hurt in her eyes breaks my heart.
You feel like crying when you hear this? I DID cry! Of course, I was 11 when this had just been issued as a single.....
It's only 42 years old. 1980
Agnetha sings about her divorce from Björn. You can hear her pain. She was very very professional. I love this song from Abba.
Bjorn wrote the song BTW..
@@loki76 I know this. I‘m a fan since 1974.
Yes, this was and is .. amazing .. by far best ever song and performance ... In fact, out of this World for our simple mortal souls ... This song is immortal like ABBA and wil be there.. forever
It's funny that women think it's always about them, they don't believe that a man has any feelings at all. Björn wrote the song from his heart and yet his estranged wife sings it which must feel so strange for him.
@@jonathanmaybury5698 THIS SONG IS PAINFUL TO HEAR.
A song about her divorce from the guitar player , which he wrote.
Some other great songs by them..... S.O.S. The day before you came, knowing me knowing you...
Both of them denied it was about their own divorce.
from wikipedia:
However, Ulvaeus admitted that the heartache of their breakup inspired the song, but noted that the words in the song should not be taken literally.[1] He said: "Neither Agnetha nor I were winners in our divorce."[
The way she sings the song, it has always sounded to me (even before I knew about here divorce) that she is talking about the other woman when she refers to "the winner", who kept the man that she trusted and loved. I read that she is singing "I lost you, the winner (she) is taking all I loved". Not the meaning that her ex-husband won.
@@warre1 Yes, exactly
The craziest thing about this song is that she is singing what her ex-husband is telling her by these lyrics. It's about their breakup, but the lyrics were written by her ex-husband.
It just makes the whole song hit even deeper.
Incredible professionalism of them to have been able to continue working together.
Agreed! People forget they are Björn’s lyrics. However, they had already been separated, the official divorce became official in 1980.
But Björn was already seeing Lena who was a good friend of Agnetha’s. The press was on to this and they would deny the rumors for the sake of Keeping Abba alive. Eventually the story had to break - “The game is on again, a lover or a friend?“ and in the end, I guess, the winner was Lena.
@@OperaJH yet another story about "best friends"
Well they didn't continue as a band much after this, last album the year after, announced band breakup 3 years later. Reunion album 41 years later, with the women not showing up for the launch livestream...
@@OperaJH So true - It amazes me the lyrics Björn’s wrote for Agnetha to sing. They seem so empathetic to what she was going through. See especially the Girl with the Golden Hair set of three songs.
But he always said they they were inspired by what they were going through, but don't tell that story. Because of the lyrics it makes you thing the guy was the winner and the woman (Agnetha) was the loser. Of this song he says he wrote the lyrics while drunk. So - was he the Winner? My take is that they both think it was the opposite. Agnetha has said it was here favorite song to sing.
Agnetha wanted to stop touring and focus on raising their children and that's what she did. She also didn't want to tour anymore due to valid fears of stalkers as fans were acting insane especially in response to "the blond".
Björn wrote the song the way he did - making himself the bad guy - knowing it would play better by fitting with the audience's expectations. Björn & Benny went on to write musicals after this - and you can see they were already going down that path with the last albums and songs like this.
It's said that it was the only time he wrote a song being drunk.
These girls could sing the phonebook. Pure emotion and no auto tune. They were Sweden's 2nd biggest export after Volvo. More Abba please. One of us, Angel eyes, Chiquitita 👌🔥❤️
In autumn ABBA Will reunite for 5 new songs.It is official..
I think you forgot IKEA 😜
@@danielblandu67 I hope it happens... supposedly agnetha wasn’t interested...
All !
Hey !!!
What about Toblerone !
“You’ve come to shake my hand”
for me this is the most powerful lyric and message about life and a failed relationship ever, it still takes my breath away even after all these years… ABBA = Pure Perfection ❤️💔
Agnetha is living that song. And that's why it catches you.
There is an actual video that goes with this song which is even sadder.
and her voice, dont forget her voice i really dislike Abba's music its to "disco" but i can never say that Agnetha and Frida is bad singers and Benny Andersson is a musical genius i love his orchestra (Benny Andersson orkester) and him playing with Orsa Spelmän is glorious
*I am 54 years old and nevertheless, I still get Tears in my Eyes every Time I hear this Song !*
*Romantic Greetings from Hamburg !!*
Me too😢❤
This Is A Music Masterpiece In Every Single Way.
Selling over 400 million albums worldwide shows how much ABBA is loved..They ruled the 70s..🎸🎶🎤👍😁😊
Yeppers!
I did not pay attention to ABBA when they were big because I wasn't into upbeat vacuous pop music. I had no idea they were capable of such thoughtful and poignant lyrics. Lines like: "The Gods may throw the dice, their minds as cold as ice."...definitely not mindless pop fluff. RESPECT for ABBA!
Pure , honesty and real feelings, no autotunes, no stage show..... Outstanding!!
Idont regard myself as an abba fan ,but you cant fail to recognise the talent that has created and performed their songs
No self confidence
As you see it
The most honest words written in any song ever
ABBA is truly amazing. Their music still resonates to this day, 40+ years later
It was very brave of her to sing about her own life like that to the world and a lot of the world were listening, because Abba were massive, really massive. They had lots of great songs like S.O.S. Chiquitita, Waterloo and Thank You For The Music just to name a few. Check them out they were wholesome.
Everyone thinks she sings about her own relationship when Benny Andersson (piano) stated many times the text
is fictional. Yes and we all know they all had an relationship but this text is still fiction. Greetings from Sweden.
@@xxxSlavetraderxxx It’s about the divorce from Björn Ulvæus, the guitarist.
she's not singing about her own life, she was glad to get out of the marriage, plus tell me, if it's about her who is the winner??? her or bjorn? there isn't a winner because neither of them were seeing other people at the time
Fernando, dancing queen...
@@ajayjackson7727 Bjorn got together with one of the backing singers, right after the split. Agnetha was left with their children and had to keep going with the band and working along side them, Benny and Bjorn also wrote Our Last Summer, Benny was having an affair while married to Frieda. Frieda sang it, a song about a relationship ending. She made it about her life, because she wasn't okay about that divorce.
This woman was born to sing as she relates in "thank you for the music"
My divorce was a blessing but I saw an interview with Agnetha (the blonde singer) stating they tried to keep their divorce amicable. But no divorce is amicable. Hit me hard. This song makes me cry, especially when they say the loser is standing small - an illusion to their children.
STILL....My fave of all time! Agnetha has one of the greatest voices ever!❤
One of the greatest groups of all time, you should do some more of their songs.
It feels like the song is telling you a story that everyone has being through at least once in their life time..
Greetings from Sweden 🇸🇪
I was in my teens when this song hit the number 1 spot. Abba were my idols!!!! Still breathtaking!
There's a lump on my throat hearing this song and how powerful Agnetha voice is. Too sad and impressed at the same time
One of the greatest recordings ever, for sure.
One of the ABBA best originals. It's moving and touches every single sense in our life. Just awesome.
It's such a powerful song and yet so moving.
There is talent then there is Talent! those four people together was pure musical magic! there is a reason they sold almost 400 million records!
Only the lyrics of this song are so touchy; but then comes along Agnète with her crystel clear voice making this heartbreaking! All time masterpiece song!
Every single time I hear this song my tears run down I can’t help it. Thank you ABBA for this beautiful song. Thank you Agneta fir singing it the way you did💖
ABBA was so big in Europe in the seventies. I lived in a small village in the Netherlands and our bakery sold ABBA pictures for 5 cents a package. I collected them and glued them in a composition book. When I was 12 my parents bought their first record player and bought me my very first record, from ABBA of course. The music- and gossip magazines wrote everything about their private lives, their relation struggles and divorces. That's why this song was such a punch in the gut. It was definitely not only about the end of them as a band. It was about their relation struggles. I always wondered how I would feel if my ex wrote a song for me to sing. That's crazy. But these people were (and still are) professionals all the way.
I´m happy because ABBA is coming back and release a new album almost 40 years later. I just listening "Don´t shut me donw", magic is still here.. Thank you Abba. I growing up with your music 1970´s...
La più bella canzone d'amore mai composta e cantata magistralmente al mondo! E' un'opera d'arte!
The kind of song where you can't stop the little teardrop forming in the corner of your eye when really listening to it.
Одна из самых моих любимых песен АВВА.Чудесная песня.
This song just breaks my heart, every time I listen to it. But do I stop listening to it? Oh, no! It's ABBA, so I keep listening.🤷♀️
How could a group in such turmoil sing an emotive song like this with such perfection?
Only Abba could.
Only band that can make sad and joy in the same song.
It’s a heartbreaking song but remains one of my favorites that can still bring out emotions in me.
Definitely one of the greatest pop bands ever, such classic, memorable and poignant songs, beautiful!
I first heard it at 8 yrs old and loved it without knowing the meaning, am now almost 50 and love it much more. A true gem, and judging from your reaction you will also love it the more you hear and understand it. Thx.
Everyone can relate to their words and music. We’ve all had the emotions; joys and disappointments... THAT is why their music will survive. It’s honesty set to good melodies.
Best pop band in history.. nothing more to say.
I was 17. 40 years ago. So cool watching today's generation listen to the music of my generation. I can best describe the 70's music era as, pure emotion.
You are truly lovely Morenikeji.
АББА, это лучшая группа, которая когда либо существовавшая на планете Земля,я ее люблю уже 50 лет.
I don't know how it's possible to not have heard this song before.
She was in touch with her emotions singing this song because she had split with her husband one of the ABBA band. So when you see her sad & depressed she really was & she had to feel this way to bring out the best in the way she sang it especially t he storytelling
Very powerful song. Agnetha was so strong singing this song that could not have been easy for her. ABBA SUPERGROUP THE BEST GROUP ON THE PLANET SUPER TROOPERS LOVE ABBA. Please react to more of ABBA songs. They were brilliant live in concert. If you can please react to ABBA live in concert. Love your reactions.
When they were still happy couples.. The boys Björn (guitars, lead vocals, lyrics) and Benny (keys, music compositions) teamed up together. They happened to have girlfriends who could sing too, and they tried them, like so many groups in those days, to provide backing chorus. In the recording studio it showed how amazing the girls voices sounded together if they sung lead. The outcome is well known.
Still get goosebumps listening to this
You do realize Bjorn Ulvaez left Agnetha Faltskog after 10 years of marriage and 2 children. Supposedly he moved in with another woman a week after he left Agnetha. He wrote this song for her and she says she appreciated that he wrote the song. Within a year of releasing this song Benny Andersson and Anni Frid lyngstad ended their relationship of 12 years. They had been engaged for a long time and then divorced after 4 years of marriage. Bjorn was and is a brilliant song writer and Agnetha and AnniFrid were the muses and the hearts and voices of the music. This song is so haunting because it perfectly captures that devastation of losing someone you loved. It so eloquent and precise. It amazes me that he could write a song from the loser's point of view. In real life Agnetha had a hard time getting on with her life. She had a brief marriage to someone and then a few relationships. When the band broke up, she became a bit of a recluse. She stopped socializing with the members of the band. Only recently has she started to come out of hiding. Bjorn and Benny went on to have successful music careers. They adapted the ABBA song book to the movie Mama Mia among other things. Bjorn went on to marry someone else and have two more children. He has been successful and has no regrets. When you know their story and listen to the song, it is heartbreaking. In real life the winner did take it all and the loser did fall.
All these years later still gives goosebumps
listen to Agnetha's voice quiver when she sings the verse 'I don't wanna talk
If it makes you feel sad
And I understand
You've come to shake my hand'
There's a reason, why ABBA were so successful, World Wide, through decades of no1"s and its called TALENT. Even today it shines through. You should listen to more of their songs, the list is long but everyone a winner guaranteed! Without doubt, the best group ever.
here you can see once again what music can do, especially this very personal masterpiece from abba!
Welcome to ABBA, your life will change now. I bought this on vinyl the day it was released! It’s my favourite song of all time by anyone ever. Timeless and for ever
Hi Morenikeji, you may be interested to know that ABBA just released 2 new recordings, one of them, "Don't Shut Me down" sounds very much like a follow up to this song
I am right there with you. Don't Shut Me Down is referring back to this song.
This song is a masterpiece. The writing is incredible and the voice so haunting...and sad
Excellence = ABBA this song was record in multiple languages for the history books.
What a powerful song. Thank you for reacting to this
What a voice she has,, such a meaningful song!!!
The official video of this is a real tear-jerker. The last part, where her voice cracks gets me every time!
Hi babe, great to see your reaction to one of the greatest bands ever. Abba have always been always been real favourites and it's brilliant to see them back.
You listen so thoughtfully, and feel so deeply. I always enjoy your reactions...and listening to your impressions spoken in that lovely, captivating accent is a bonus! Would love to hear more about your Yoruba culture, customs and history. By the way, I just saw your reaction to Santana's "Black Magic Woman" yesterday evening. Your spontaneous joy at certain points in the song was absolutely delightful...and your dancing? Awesome!💖💖💖
Thanks a lot!❤️❤️❤️
One of the all time greatest vocal performances. Agnetha breaks my heart everytime I hear it. What a voice!
The best ABBA Song. Gimme Gimme.
This is the best song ever written!
There's a lump in my throat each time I listened to this song in particular. The melody and lyrics just gave me goosebumps.
Im a 60yo head banger, Abba was one of the greatest pop bands in history.
I’m a 45 year old rock guitarist and ABBA is my guilty pleasure
Bin 50 und kann nur zustimmen! Am 50 and can only agree!
I love this woman. She listens to stuff I grew up listening to.
Loved your reaction, 30 years later it still makes me feel the same every time!
Ohhh still get Goosebumps on the back of my arms! Why o why hasn't anyone got the balls to form a band like this now a days@
In 1974 won ABBA the Song Festival with the number Waterloo , but all songs of ABBA are beautiful! I love to hear this song again. Thank you Morenikeji for your choice!
Love from Holland and a kiss !🙋🏼♂️🇳🇱👍😘
some things never changes and ABBA still remains
Truly sublime composition. The sadness, the introspection, the grief of a love lost, and the sense that you've somehow come off worse.
Hi from New Zealand 🇳🇿
We love ABBA 😍😍😍
More reactions, maybe SOS and That’s Me 🙂
"SOMEONE WAY DOWN HERE LOSES SOMEONE DEAR..........."
Lovely reaction video to this very sad song from super-group ABBA from my teen years. Thank you for it!
Possibly the best soprano to lend her voice to popular music.
ABBA has produced so many timeless bangers it's unreal.
Amazing song , I heared it over and over again with my Late mom in her last Days. So Powerful Song
This song is timeless can touch no matter what generation or time actually telling the end of Abba and there relationships breaking up !
This.. is .. one of.. the Best songs ever written and performed ... Thank you ABBA for this incredible musici
ABBA have relased 2 new songs over 40 years ✌🏻
I felt your spirit rise out of your heart when you were hearing ABBA. Bless you sister
The composition, the arrangements, the mix of all the voices, the sound very clear and very stable of Agnethas voice, the movement of the chorus behind.. all these things mixed together shake our hearts and touch us deeply even 40 years after… thanks to all these bands through the 70s and 80s that were really capable of writing songs like that… Thank you so much..
you discovered one of the most popular bands in the music history. in the 60s, 70s, 80s artists used to have another kind of "language" in their professional works . The Winner takes it all is almost a poem very big , emotional ...a kind of freudian catarsis to talk about love ........about the end of an ilusion, a marriage dream........Beautiful...
I count myself as very lucky to have grown up with this band in the 70's and heard all these as chart hits for the first time.
Hello again, so nice to I see your second reaction to ABBA
I love so much the Sweden pop group ABBA
They have more than 20 worldwide hits in several countries of all continents, included
Waterloo
S.O.S.
Mamma Mia
Fernando
Dancing Queen
Take a chance on me
Chiquitita
Gimme gimme gimme
The winner takes it all
Super trouper
"The winner takes it all" is one of their greatest hits, #1 in UK and several countries, #8 in Billboard U.S. and #1 in Adult Contemporary U.S.
"The winner takes it all" have a deep lyric writen by the guitarist Björn and singing at lead vocal by his ex-wife Agnetha, that gives an emotional and powerful interpretation with her lovely voice
note: Agnetha & Björn was separated at the end of 1978 (with two young children) but the legal divorce was in the middle of 1980
after this, Björn wrote this incredible lyrics
(obviously included part of your own history),
and the songwriters Björn & Benny gives Agnetha to sing it
at first She cry, but then put all your feelings and emotions and talents to this amazing performing
I hope to see you in another reaction to ABBA songs
I suggest you one of their most worldwide hit:
"Mamma Mia"
Stay safe and be care
And have a great week!
Hello, nice yo see you again with another reaction to the Sweden pop group ABBA, the leads in 70s, the decade post BEATLES
"The winner takes it all" is for me the best interpretation of a song that I heard in my life by any singer or band
It is interpretation, because it is more than just singing, it is also acting and transmitting, and Agnetha does all that and on a superlative level
Beyond the morbid that the story of this song produces (the lyrics about a divorce, written by the guitarist Björn, and sung by his ex-wife Agnetha), the structure reflects a change: it is the first time in all ABBA songs that whoever has the leading voice has been alone from beginning to end,
She goes one way and the choirs go the other (they do not add up, they remain in the background)
and in the end She is left alone passive and exposed, while the chorus and the music finish so up
That is why I feel that Agnetha does an extraordinary performance (extraordinary: out of the ordinary)
Her face is always very expressive and accompanies the various tones and nuances of her majestic vocalization.
"The winner takes it all" is a great song, it's in my ABBA Top 5
It is the favorite of British fans,
but fundamentally is the one chose
by Björn and Agnetha
and Their own words is the one that is worth more
I like you for a new reaction to the classic "Chiquitita" or "Fernando"
My best wishes for You
from Buenos Aires Argentina
and GOD bless you!
Best group ever by far an always will be
.. what a beautiful melody with all crazy violons and voices arround catched you up more and more deep inside.
.. great song and music ever ..
Hi. Good Reaction :)
The song was about the Divorce between the lead singer and the guitarist and WRITER of the song, standing right next to her.
Can you imagine?? It was very brave of her.
very very👌
I have always found the sound of ABBA round and tasty, I think it is the mark of this group.
The lyrics to this song and the story behind ABBA would bring a tear to a glass eye!
One of the greatest songs of all time!!
