    You’re spot on with your analysis IMO. On its surface, the song is a standard “I want to get back in your life” love song. But the song has a deeper meaning for ABBA and it’s fans. From the moment the band broke up in 1982 the world has been begging for a reunion, but they always resisted. Now 40 years have passed and they’re mentally and spiritually ready to go through it again. This song is their way of saying “Ok, you asked for it and we’re back. But please understand time has passed, we’ve grown and please accept that growth and change.”

      I agree, the deeper meaning is a message to the fans. But I also think these two new songs are designed to fit into the avatar show next year - maybe opening the show. (I think Bjorn's wife would protest if this was actually a love song for Agnetha).

They know how to write pop tunes with fantastic lyrics. LOVE this. As someone coming back from 30 odd years of alcoholism, this song has a very personal resonance. Genius stuff.

      Sure, but Björn and Benny had worked together since 1966, writng songs for other artists and produced (as it is called today). Agnetha already had a long career as a schlager style "singer songwriter" behind her, and Frida was oriented to the jazzy latin bossa style. Both girls worked with Björn and Benny and did backup vocals on their recordings some years before they became Abba.

    Isn't it great that all members of ABBA are in their 70s now? Agnetha is now 71, Anni-Frid is 75, Benny's 76 and Bjorn is 75. And after a 40 year hiatus, for ABBA to have come up with these 2 georgous newly released songs are unbelievable, right? Plus a whole 10 song new album is coming out this 5th November 2021😍
    Don't Shut Me Down has Agnetha on lead vocals while I Still Have Faith in You has Anni-Frid on lead vocals..
    Agnetha is a soprano and Anni-Frid is a mezzo-soprano, both voices have their own strengths and class, and when these 2 harmonises, its pure bliss and joy as these harmonies ARE the sound of ABBA!
    Not to forget the other 2, Benny and Bjorn who have always been great composers, truly sublime in their lyrical and music compositions, music arrangements and production.

    There's another new ABBA song called 'I Still Have Faith In You'. It might make you cry - both positively and maybe sadly. The band have said that the new album 'Voyage' is really all about coming back and their feelings about it. They really didn't know how they would be received again and the girls in particular were worried about it. A new show touring next year will be avatars (they call them Abbatars) of all the band and should be something special to see. Best wishes to your friends. Losing someone is hard at the best of times but over the last couple of years it's been even worse.

Agnetha, the blonde and Anni-Frid or Frida as she is called both equally shared leads on the songs and also sang in unison which was known as the third voice of Abba as there voices together created as amazing sound. To come back together after 40 years and still sound this incredible is a testament to their talent. A whole album is being released in November.

    To a long time Abba fan, it's totally amazing that they have made music together again after 40 years. I'm still shocked!! And it's like they've never been away. Agnetha, Benny, Bjorn, Ana-Frid. Legends!!
    Try "Name of the Game" "Knowing Me, Knowing You" "Chiquita" "Fernando" "Thank you for the Music" the list is endless. Much love from England 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

    There are two new songs. The other one, I Still Have Faith in You, features Anni-Frid (Frida) on lead vocals. Her voice is equally magnificent and the two of them, Frida and Agnetha, together complement each other as beautifully as any two voices have ever done. I'd love for you to be more familiar with Frida's voice. Some wonderful songs she sings lead on are Andante Andante, Like An Angel Passing Through My Room, I let the Music Speak, The Visitors, and the classic Fernando. Just to get you started.

    Bjorn likes lyrics that can be interpreted in different ways, so it can be both about them or a relationship in general.
    After 40 years, it just takes you back. They sound the same, and the Abbatars on stage are their movements combined with technology to make them look like they did back then. I'm so thankful that they got back together. I've been praying for them for decades after their painful parting so what an answer!

    There isn't really a lead singer. It depends on the song and how the voices suit it.
    Like with the Beatles. Sometime Paul will lead or it could be John or George - even occasionally Ringo.

    Not gonna lie. I teared up hearing a new ABBA song. It’s not that everything was better back then, they weren’t (most of my peers have rose colored glasses), but whenever an ABBA song is playing, everything seems better. So my memories from the 70s that involve ABBA music are always happy.
    The world could really use some ABBA right now.
    Btw, the blonde, Agnetha, is not the lead singer. She and Anafrid both sing lead.

    You are correct “Don’t shy me down” ,Deals with agnetha’s relationship with bjorn long after their divorce ,Hence being in the park outside their old apartment and her surprise decision to reform the band.The other song “I still have faith in you” deals with Anifrida and Bennie’s relationship and how she still has faith in him ,when he suggested the reunion of the group.

    I love your reaction on this song. As a fan, Abba invokes many memories from the 70's and now 40 years later they do it again so this was kind of emotional and means much and now that Abbatars were created they are forever immortalized. Even though they are in their 70's they still have that 70's sound. They created so many hook songs. I'm 71 yrs and overjoyed that the younger gen can enjoy Abba. I per-ordered their Voyage album coming Nov 4. Thank you both Peace..

    Hey great song great reaction. Love this song and the fact they are are doing concerts with super real looking avatars or abbatars as their fans are calling them. They built a special stadium for it. The band members spent months wearing some ial suits with 160 special cameras that captured every move so it's actually them. A must see. Can you PLEASE DO THE OTHER HIT SONG FROM THEIR NEW ALBUM 'I still have faith in you" Frida ( the brunette) does lead vocals and it is amazing. The band broke up because they were 2 married couples that got divorced.

    It's been a while since you've reacted to an ABBA song. you should really look at the infectious piano riffs & powerful vocal harmonies of "Chiquitita". Also "Fernando". Both songs have a similar feel and reflect a Spanish/Mexican influence you might not expect to hear from a Sweedish Band.

    After 40 years the genius songwriting of Benny and Bjorn is a good as ever. The lyrics and the dual meaning behind them of someone wanting to come back into a former loved ones life but also the metaphor for the bands comeback are incredibly clever and the musical arrangement is just exceptional and has that clever ABBA “hook” that you just can’t help but keep on singing.
    The vocals of the girls are as sensational as they’ve always been, especially Agnetha,s lead vocals and I for one am over the moon that they have released this new material and can’t wait for the new album to be released in November. For me ABBA are completely unrivalled in the pop music world, there will never be anyone again who can produce brilliant pop songs like they do.
    So Sorry to hear your sad news, sending love and prayers to you all 🙏🙏 💜

    Thanks for the reaction! The world has always been brighter because of ABBA. Who knew they'd bring even more joy to the world in 2021? There are actually two women who sing. The acronym ABBA stands for Agnetha, Björn, Benny, and Anni-Frid. Agnetha is singing lead vocals here. The other song released from their upcoming album, "I Still Have Faith in You" has Anni-Frid (called Frida by fans) singing lead vocals. When Agnetha and Frida sing together, nothing short of magic happens! BTW, this is not a "new sound." It's totally classic ABBA! Thanks again. So sorry to hear the sad news about your friends.
