ABBA - The Winner Takes it All Lyrics

- Here's a video I've made with the song "The Winner Takes it All", from ABBA.
A great voice to a great song! Nowadays the voices are all bad and singers are only safe thanks to its rythm. There are some exception, but...*tsc*
DISCLAIMER. I DO NOT OWN THIS MUSIC OR EVEN THE LYRICS. THE SONG BELONGS TO ABBA AND THE LYRICS ARE FROM A SITE.
"I don't want to hurt your feelings, but the truth is... you've never mattered all that much to me." - Chuck McGill
Jimmy reacts sad 😢😢😢
Fuck.. :C
C'est ce que j'allais dire 😬
understood..
J'ai commencé à regardé les 2 premiers épisodes de la saison 5 de "Better call Saul" in France .... I just started watching the first 2 episodes of "Better call Saul" season 5 🤫 we will have one episode per week ....
My mum has just died and I gave this a listen, it was our song. We used to put the PS3 on, on the weekends and we’d play singstar and me an her would belt our absolute hearts out to this song, proper going for it - I bet the neighbours hated us for it :,) it’s not easy to listen to anymore, especially on the long note. My mum could nail it every single time without fail, she had such a beautiful voice. I love you mum, rest in paradise 💗 12/07/20
EDIT: damn, so much love :,) wasn’t even close to expecting a single response, i was lowkey just venting but thank you all of you, and for those that relate and are missing a loved one, i hope we all heal 🩷 we gotta LIVE for them, i hope none of you just exist in regret, wanting to reverse time or just pain in general.. i hope we all make it outta this rut :,) we deserve it.
love you all. take the best care x
❤️
R.I.P.
R. I. P💔
Brung me to tears. I hope u have a good life
Sending you a virtual hug, I'm sorry for your loss. Stay strong💗
My fave lyrics….”but I was a fool, playing by the rules” “the judge’s will decide, the likes of me abide”. Such a great song with clever lyrics x
The song was a dialogue, I believe, the opposite sides expressing their different emotions. The guilt of being the 'winner' who got the split, the other who was left suffering the loss. The one 'playing by the rules' was the one left wondering about the kisses, clearly not the 'winner' who wrote the song. People break up but only spouses suffer divorce.
My favorite part is: tells me does she kiss who I used to kiss you, does it feels the same when she calls your name, it’s breaking.
Concordo com você.letra maravilhosa.
likes of me abide means?
The person who wrote this song obviously felt this pain. You can't just fake this feeling.
It was Björn from ABBA when he and Agnetha (The blonde one) were getting divorced
Jejejeje That’s true
So why did he divorced her if he wrote from the deepest pain of his heart ?
@@talatsaleh4230 While each member was focussing on other work, such as solo careers and songwriting, their marriages are believed to be the reason the band could not continue together, though for Björn and Agnetha, both have said their split was fairly “amicable.”
Byörn wrote this in less than an hour,while being very very drunk.🤷🏼♀️
The winner takes it all... The loser standing small... How real it is!? One of the best song ever...
ive been the loser pretty much my whole life the norm for me now
scott49140 if you can't beat em join em 🙂
Love it 😘
Simply the best!
@@scott49140 Me too😭
Fun fact: When they made this music, one of the couples of the group was going through a divorce. It gives the song an entire different meaning.
(If you didn't know, the 4 members of ABBA were couples).
Dancing Queen to this song very quick it's like falling in love then broke up all of a sudden. 😭
Check this out, an orchestral version!

and which fan doesn't know they were couples ? Come on !!!!
@@lorrainespiteri2509 Me up until this very moment.
Like One of us 🥲
the same applies to money money money
ABBAs music along with Queen will never age. It is beyond the space time continuum

Same with "" The Sweet"""
And Air Supply
@@mojojojo4308 Now that's funny.
Yes. It rips through the fabric of reality and flows into parallel universes. That's how strong it is. Invading the hearts and minds of the inhabitants of those universes.
It's a shame that you don't get songs like this anymore. A real classic like the rest of ABBA's songs.
Really I just recall when I was taken to jail but finally I was the winner
Songs are the scripts of the real story of life itself. Mine...It's my story and you are all artscof Oak, in my world...ONE TRUTH, ONE STORY. Yrs I am the true controller and Onwer of everything. ❤
This was Abba's last big hit. Incredible. two of them were married and their marriage was breaking up.
probably why they stopped writing songs
Actually it was super trouper
There last #1

absolutely incredible song one of the best and im a trance head !
Still bringing tears to my eyes. What a magnificent song.
Anyone who has ever been in love, and lost their love to someone else, will cry in response to this song. Thanks, Agnetha - you are more beautiful inside and out than anyone else. How can we ever thank you enough for what you gave to the world?
One of the greatest songs ever written. One of the greatest recordings ever made. Thanks to all 4 of you.
Indeed
not gonna lie this hits different at 12:30 am when you snuck downstairs to get orange juice
allison I’ve never related to a comment so much in my life. I’m doing homework at 3 am on Monday and it’s due in 7 hours from now and idk why I started playing this song knowing damn well I would cry😤
Bruh it’s 4 am I’m sipping on my sour kool aid this comment hit different
Casey Greyson BAHAHA
Skipper0135 😔✊ i feel you
I saw this comment at exactly 12:30 whilst drinking milk
This music really hurts u when your heart is broken😢💔😭
It sums up what has happened to me i recently spilt up with my husband 😔
Rachael Adams omg...... Rachel the same happen to me last year but life goes on even if your ♡ gets broken. Wish you all the best girl. Better things will come your way stay positive. Hugs and kiss
@@Ikasaswarrior thank you so much
Rachael Adams you’re welcome!
@@rachaeladams8059 I wish you nothing but there very best hon
I keep crying to this song... been divorced for 3 years but everytime I hear this... I'll always love my ex wife. Forever. Until I die.
I hope you can find peace in loving her, and that you can also find the joys of moving forward.
This is your life… you only get one ❤️
The first one always hurts. I've never been married but my first girlfriend hurt like a bullet. It woke me up to the reality of this world
@@rahmansetiawan6052 what pandemic?
Deep in your heart of heart - you wish your ex-wife will come back.
May be she will, may be not - the odd is not - but hey, it is your life..
She's getting rattled like a council house shed roof in a hurricane.. move on
Like the Beatles, Simon & Garfunkel, Judy Collins, or Joan Baez, ABBA is a once in a generation group that can NEVER be equaled for they transcend all others while touching our hearts and letting our souls fly for a brief moment.
That's kind of poetic. Thanks ... God bless.
Don't forget about The Wailers.
Don’t forget about Rolling Stones
Chiquitita
Queen too
Bob odenkirk and Michael McKean almost make me cry with this Song in Better Call Saul
I was thinking the same thing.. 😔
2021 Somebody still listening to real music
yepp
You are wise persons
Hallo guy!!I m present from italy💚🤍❤
@@luigibalducci402
Greetings from Germany 🇩🇪🇩🇪🇩🇪
I guess this is the best ABBA song ever! Even in 2021
I feel like what's missing from a lot of modern songs is the tone. Many songs would rather have a catchy tune than have music that actually makes you feel something. ABBA was great at crafting songs that not only sound good, but also create emotions within you.
I completely agree MCFpapa I mean if the story was really real its like your living the story of the song and the music sounds amazing but you also have a sadness in your SOUL............. :3
It doesn't have either! LOL Music these days isn't catchy at all, just like it is emotionally shallow...both of these things are absent from modern music! And what if i told you it can be both - catchy and emotional? This is pretty much clear example here! Memorable and catchy motive...yet deep, meaningful and thoughtful lyrics! You don't have to choose between these two things, when making great music! LOL
MCFPapa but it sells because it fits the target audience of young teens
@@Summon256 you're an idiot
Bullshit
This song is a rarity because of its beautiful lyrics and melody, and not least is also the way ABBA sings it. Because of its theme- about love and heartache, it should be a classic. I hope the next generation will keep it alive.
We will, I promise
Right, they are the best singing group and composer.
This is my mom's favorite song,she used to sing this song to me when I was a child before sleep. I feel safe and warm every-time I heard this song.
Jimmy and Chuck, great interpretation
I've never thought of it that way I just thought it was sad to see them singing it, but the lyric are really fucked when you think about chuck's death
Mssmms lsdm♥️♥️🤣🤣🤣🎂😊😊😊😊

Sldlmdmmen❤❤❤♥️♥️♥️😛😛😛
Dkkzj
This song leads me to sadness everytime i remember those days when I'm almost down everybody loves to see us in pain...but I've moved on...thanks God for guiding me... everything's okay...
When you're singing karaoke with your older brother who is very supportive of your choice to become a lawyer and doesn't resent you
Did Chuck resent him for completing the bar? I knew he didn't want him in the firm but was it clear that he was upset with Jimmy for becoming a lawyer?
@@willdenham Chuck has said that Jimmy is “not a real lawyer” because he did an online course and he also thinks Jimmy will con the law because Chuck still sees him as slipping Jimmy
@@magikman481 Oh I thought that was just about him keeping Jimmy from joining the firm.
Bellissima

Www
This is so sad. So beautiful and so sad.
So so so sad
I'd like for this song to be heard at my funeral. 🥀
@@55archduke so so so so sad
danceloverartslover Yes, So sad. I always cry. 🤦😥
The time this song was produced Agnetha and Bjorn marriage was over and it was hard Agnetha. When she was performing, she was sad and trying to keep from crying.
2020 and this song doesn't get old...
Edit: OMG this is the first time I get this big amount of likes (200+) Thank you all :)
Songs like this never get old.
Facts, I love ABBA songs
Beautiful.......
It s ben 5 years since I meet you,5 years ,and still on my mind! I could never forget you!😔
Real song never get old.
Hey, you! Yeah you. Just want to let you know that you are awesome and that no matter what people say you are very important, if you weren't then you would have never been born. Don't worry, be happy and live life to its fullest!!
2020 and I have more than 7 ABBA songs on my playlist.
Never gets old.
Sending hugs to all my gals and guys listening to this after a breakup :(
Brigita Matulyte I’m not I just like this song
Thanks babe, need it though
Thanks gurl😭
Don't want to be that person but what about the boys going through breakups??
I'm a guy but i'l devastated since my ex got married , may have a hug anyway ?
I dnt wanna talk..
Is someone is listening it in DEC 2020
Yep!
ye
Rules must be obeyed, always stay online to cross over this 2020
Never left
1st.Jan.of oohhhh 2021.
It’s 3 am I should be asleep or doing something productive but no, I’m listening to good music because there isn’t much left in this world.
It is well dear.
Listening this in 2019, anyone?
Yep
Yes me 2019
Lo mejor. Saludos amiga
Sorry, I'm listening this in 1748
Absolutely
The lyrics are with tremendous feelings and the singing is soul stirring. 😪😪👌👌👍👍
This song ALWAYS reminds me that when it comes to affairs of the heart, there is almost always a winner and a loser. Rarely do people walk away neutral. The lyrics remind me of the pain I felt when I walked away the loser.
😢💔😢😢😢
Only song that makes me cry.. 😪
One of the best love songs ever. Still so relevant and heartbreaking after all these decades.
Truly, a thing of beauty is a joy for ever.
Dancing Queen to this song very quick it's like falling in love then broke up all of a sudden. 😭
Check this out, an orchestral version!

Did u just quote John Keats? I noticed it because this is one of my favorite lines haha
Para mim nao existe banda igual a essa! Ê a melhor banda que já existiu ! Eu amo Abba e sofro por ano existir mais! Isso sim são músicas de verdade que nos leva ao Céu, que nos toca na alma ! Inesquecível!
May 2019, loving this classic...ALL time great....ABBA- once in a lifetime band.....
I’m
29 and have been obsessed with ABBA since I was like 12 or 13. It’s almost impossible for me to not well up when I hear this song. I was so touched when I saw Meryl singing this in Mamma Mia when the first movie came out -and since then every time I hear either version of this song I‘m heart-wrenchingly touched to tears
Been listening to this song for decades now, but I particularly loved the way they used it in Better Call Saul. The scene says so much about the dynamics between Jimmy McGill and his brother. The way Jimmy takes pity of Chuck and reaches out to him, inviting him onstage and seeking for the approval he'll never get. Eventually to get upstaged by Chuck, who sings better than him (and Michael McKean is a bona fide great singer). Congrats to the writers for saying so much with one song (and to ABBA too, obvs).
Above all, it was to show that deep down, no matter what Chuck said to him, Chuck did care about Jimmy. Like Jimmy said, he loved him like a brother, but not as a lawyer. Chuck always saw him as Slippin Jimmy, and Jimmy proved him right every time
the gods may throw a dice
their minds cold as ice
and someone way down here
loses someone dear
That segment of the lyrics is absolutely poetic
@@caoscosmos Yes, together with Landslide's "Mirror in the sky, what is love? Can the child within my heart rise above" are my two favorite segments of any song.
My favorite ABBA song of all times. Going through heart break right now 💔 😪
I hope things are a little better.🙏🏼❤️
Same
😊! Guess what! Me too! For absolutely no reason!
The last part says: ......" So the winner takes It all and the loser has to fall
Throw of dice, cold as ice,
Way down here, someone dear ... "
My god this is so wondefull, the BEST ballad that I've ever Heard in my Life.
What this song about please
Thank you I literally only came to figure out that part and was like *facepalm* when the lyrics cut out before it
Chuck wasn't the only one to die in that fire.
DarkPriestess1 jimmy’s transformation was complete when chuck told him he never cared about him much
@@aden_light for real bro
Fuck Chuck
Yes, he was.
@@rvb553 He was kinda right about Jimmy tho, he went about dealing with him in the worst way sure but Jimmy has had so many easy ways out but sticks to being slippin jimmy regardless
This song is literally theme song for the relationship that keeps falling apart.
Anyway it was a great song.
2018 still listening to Abba songs
Yoon x_o yeahh, lmao
Yeah
@Yoon x_o yup🙌😊
Forever
Oh well, 2019 now
Very sad but real song by ABBA....
UNFORGETTABLE ABBA....
ABBA FOR EVER...........
+Philip HENRY So sweet, so beautiful, unforgettable Abba.
ABBA member Bjorn Ulvaeus wrote this after separating from wife and fellow band member, Agnetha Fältskog. It's about a divorce where one person doesn't want to separate and clings desperately to the marriage. It put Agnetha in the strange spot of being asked to sing a breakup song written by her ex-husband. Ulvaeus didn't intend it this way. He explained: "I sang a demo of it myself which a lot of people liked and said, you have to sing that. But I saw the sensible thing of course, it had to go to Agnetha. I remember coming to the studio with it and everyone said, Oh this is great, wonderful It was strange hearing her singing it. It was more like an actress doing something when she sang it, but deeply moving. Afterwards there were a few tears as well."
I love abba 🇵🇭🇯🇵👭💏👩👦👦
i heard he also wrote this song with the help of a bottle of Whiskey to get him through the writing session.
One of the most beautiful songs ever written...
Listening this song makes me cry so much. This is what I am feeling right now, my heart is broken, no more trust....:-(
I'm so sorry, girl.. been there myself...
“Sadness flies away on the wings of time.”

I am so sorry
Yes, I was married for twenty five years, but it took me so long to finally realize he never loved us. He pierced my soul. THE WINNER TAKES IT ALL.
It’s such a great song. Thank you.💜
Man, this is my childhood....My mom used to play this song and I fell in love with it

Pearly Gem hello
Same here
Me to girl , i'm 27 and a big men
Pearly Gem yeah same
Me, too, Pearly!
There are very few songs like this that go straight to my heart. I am thankful...
Abba was a really great group of singers! Such harmonization! Another great song from the group!
Really think ABBA are underrated, they really had some terrific songs!
mikeykm1993 They have songs for every mood. In other words, all ABBA songs are fitting to every mood & occasion.
+Ismail Km Yeah, but more often than not a sad mood.
+mikeykm1993 Underrated? What planet are you on?
pix046 Planet Earth. A lot of people nowadays don't take them as seriously as some of the other all time greats. Maybe underrated was the wrong choice of words.
+mikeykm1993 Abba was indeed a great group and yes, they may be somewhat forgotten and under-rated now, but in their heyday they were tops and very popular!
I love this song and ABBA forever Who agree with me 💖💖💖🇮🇶
Listening to this in bed while eating crisps and getting fat, Quarantine... BRUH

"McGill and McGill, the brothers McGill.
- Yeah. Yeah.
- I'm a lawyer.
- Yeah.
- And you're lawyer.
- Yep.
- Two lawyers. How about that?
- How about that? M&M. Melts in your mouth, not in your hands. Yeah. All right. Hey, you got to tell Howard, uh, to add another "M" to the firm
- 'cause it'll make it more symmetrical.
- Uh-huh. And people love symmetricality.
- I can't argue with that.
- Yeah."

The patient has to fall?
Simplesmente a canção das canções. Um hino. Um sentimento. Uma obra prima. Ficará imortalizada pelas cápsulas do tempo e será ouvida em todas as galáxias. Muitos de nós já não estaremos mais aqui, mas essa música maravilhosa atravessará horizontes, anos luz, etc etc etc... Será a música de estudo de casais apaixonados e por aí vai. 🎧🎶📯🎺🎼🎹🎤
The most perfect song ever written.
Thank you Saul Goodman for introducing me to such a beautiful song.
Abba has made my light up my world. I was so understanding by it.
No ones can replace them forever
The strength of this song is that all 4 of them felt the pain and they penned it down on paper.Anyone who lost or broke up from someone they really loved is hit by the music and lyrics of this song like a truck.Its nothing you cant avoid but something you have to learn to go through and cope with.Life is not always easy.
When it comes to talent, ABBA takes it all! #legend
Great song don't know wat you have till it goes
Almost cryiing I see myself as a looser here ,I sacrifice my selfy belongings ,even extend to relocate just to be with my daughter who is in process of devorce but now she kick me in her house As im listening this song im in Psychiatrist hospital
"Does it feel the same when she calls your name?...Arrrgh
How did I manage to find it in time to read it as it was said in the song?
SO CRUEL AND REALISTIC I JUST CAN'T
No 160 dear
Heavy words
Deep words
Listening in 2020 amidst the pandemic?
Wow! I remember I wished a lot to learn english for understand my favorite songs and now I'm glad to understand this wonderful one! The lyric is very, very, very sad and I love that feeling of the singer while sings it!
This song reminds me of my divorce.
I understood the theme of this song after reading your comment.
listen baba is a talk that i know.
0906blue Bjorn Ulvaeus wrote this song about his divorce from Agnetha
This also reminds of the greatest heartbreak I have had in my life so far.
Sorry about your divorce
I believe the singer on this song was going through some hard times..and they divorced later.
It means so much coming from someone who is actually going through this very thing. Bless your Heart.
It's 2019 and I'm still listening to this song...🖤 I love this song since I'm a little girl,now I'm 15...I grew up with this ABBA songs...I fell in love with them when I saw for the first time Mamma Mia..❤️ "the winner takes it all...the loser as to fall..."
We are so alike I'm also 15 and I fell in love with abba from mamma Mia

Lyrics from 4:10 to end.
So the winner takes it all
And the loser has to fall
Throw a dice, cold as ice
Way down here, someone dear
Takes it all, has to fall
It seems plain ... (muffled)
RK831 the last one is all the pain I think
Brilliant song

One of the best songs ever made❤️
BEST of all songs of all groups!!!
"The winner takes it all, the loser standing small"
Imagine you did not win a contest despite your best try and see the winner getting the prize, the feeling is louzy.
Imagine you failed to get an A grade in an examination despite your best try and see others getting A grade, the feeling is louzy.
Imagine you see others getting better pay jobs but you get a lower pay job, the feeling is louzy.
So, the message conveyed from this part of the lyrics is how sorrowful is being segregated from the performing ones.
Always when I'm sad or bored, I listen to this song. It makes me feel sooooo good, Lots of love from Brazil 💚💛
Abba will touch my heart forever!! Memories a lot from age of my life and a lots of people from overthe world!
This lady was truly hurt. Each word in this song, expresses the pain.
I used to listen to it when I was like 12 and now I grew up and it suprises me how much I can actually relate to this song :o
j g songs only make meanings when you are sad.
1 am
2020
Jesus, how accurate is this song??
I lost my beloved, so it hurt. We both love ABBA; danced & sang their songs in the 80’s. Their music brought back bittersweet memories, but served as panacea in the end.
I'm listening this in 2020 🏆
I know this song since I was 6-7 y.o. thanks to my parents. I never fully understood the deeper meaning of it all, every single line, until today. 23 later, here I am, trying to heal.
Easy healing to everyone, no matter of the reason behind it.
It is 15 years ago when I first listened to this beautiful, breathtaking, magical, brilliant, emotional song. And still I love it. I love ABBA so much, same as I was a kid❤️❤️❤️❤️
Abba could sure knock out dem tunes...wow...lol xx
Ain't that a fact .
