this is one of their masterpieces. this song is one of those songs that while it lasts, when you are listening to it, you think "this song is perfect, this is the best song in the world, ever". sure, when it ends you can think "nah, it's good but it's not the best song ever", and then you play it again and you think "YES, IT IS THE BEST SONG EVER!".
i love most abba songs, but i used to keep rewinding and rewinding this particular one as a little kid because it was so good, especially that part in the chorus where they harmonize and then it segues to the guitar instrumental.
Es ist sehr amüsant zu sehen, wie junge Menschen auf richtig gute Musik reagieren. Ich bin schon 54,und kenne ABBA aus meine Kindertagen..Abba habe ich immer in meine Leben gehört und werde ABBA hören bis ich sterbe.
They created musical masterpieces from their private drama. You can hear the pain and the emotions and that it is authentic. I have so much respect, that they were mature enough to still do music together, to write about their heartbreak and do music videos.
The secret of the voices of Agnetha and Frida was that they fit together, how rarely do two voices fit together. They always stood face to face during the recordings so that they could see when they were singing and when they started. Often times it sounds like it is a single voice. That's just awesome.
With ABBA they didn't just make music with each other ,they had real relationships , families everything .All the ups and downs and this really shows more than talent and a gift.They really feel and lived this with each other. I wish to have a powerhouse love like that even if only for a while.
The key to this song is "honesty," and, yes, Agnetha is,"very pretty," as most obvious Latinos such as Dereck comment about blondes, but MANY have commented in other sites that it was really Frida who was at the height of her beauty.
Frida is a natural beauty. She is class, grace and more of a reserved presence. Strangely though she is the one that is the most playful of the two. Agnetha is more of the sex kitten.
Prophetic song for these couples years before the divorces. I can't even imagine having a normal, wholesome relationship in a machine as big as ABBA was back in the day.
Hey there Dereck, your the best reactor of all, you truly know how to critique every single song so perfectly, thankyou for that, I really enjoyed all songs that you analyze of ABBA......you have a great ear where you completely tune into each and every song that both Annifrida and Agnetha sing whether lead vocals or harmonized together, congratulations on your perfect ability to do so. Once again thank you and I will continue too keep tuned into your station, over and out and peace! I'm guessing you know the generation in which I were born now. Lol.😊 take care.
This was one of their absolute finest. ABBA at the very top of their game. Colossal Hit all over Europe including 5 weeks at No 1 in the UK. Fun Fact .... for the "turning around" scenes they were stood on revolving flower pots :-)
Lasse Hallström, the director of the video was a genius already when he did the ABBA-videos. These videos were not as expensive as Music videos became later in the 80's, but the different tricks Lasse created back in the 70's still work very well.
The greatest break-up song of all time! Everything about this song is perfect. Dancing Queen gets the kudos and is a superior song, but Knowing Me, Knowing You is beyond superior.
I was 12 yes old when I first heard this after my parents split. Boy did the lyrics touch a nerve Still does even now. Boy do they know how to go for the emotional spot. It also touched your emotions. I'm a good body language observer. Wanna give ya a hug bruv. Lol
From the same album the last song is with no lyrics, just music and choirs but it's soooooo emotional, The whole arrival album is genius from 1st to 10th song 😍😍😍
Love this song! This is the first song I fell in love with and learned who ABBA was! I bought a Ronco Records Hits of the year 1977 the as a kid in 77!
The music video for "Knowing Me, Knowing You" depicts the band against various colored backdrops singing while facing each other, turning away as a new line is sung. At the end of the video, the band's female members are seen walking away through thick snow. The video was directed by future Academy Award nominee Lasse Hallström and is a landmark in his career alongside most other videos of the band which were directed by him.[
this is anexample of abba sound where it is sad lyrics but also has a sad sound but happy at the same time and is something you can dance to very unique. there was another song that is similar dance while the music still goes on.
Mit diesem Song verkündete die Band ihr Ende, die Ehe zwischen Agnetha und Björn war beendet. Traurig für alle Beteiligten und die weltweite Fan-Gemeinde. ABBA ❤
Woher hast Du diesen Blödsinn? Der Song ist von 1976, ABBA haben 1982 aufgehört und die Ehe von Björn und Agnetha war zum Zeitpunkt der Veröffentlichung dieses Songs auch noch nicht beendet. Ein Ende der Band wurde im Übrigen NIE verkündet.
They’re standing in rotating flower pots that Lasse Halström is turning around ;-). He had a very tiny budget. And the Halström angles! You see them a lot... they’re his trademark.
Other ABBA songs you would probably enjoy listening and talking about (if not already the case) : slipping through my fingers, one of us, our last summer, and of course the winner takes it all. With Chiquitita and knowing me, knowing you, they are probably those where emotional power emerges at its best.
This reminds me of my school days that I am crazy about them ....it started with Dancing Queen..then from then...I m a fan and hooked to them...tnx for the review...💛💖💙 #ABBAisBack #ILoveABBA #WelcomeBackABBA
🧡 ABBA! One of their best. I was not a big fan of MTV or VH1 at the time. It was simply about the music for me. It's interesting now to see what the artists were doing with their videos at the time. Thanks again, Dereck, for helping me relive my youth. On to the next reaction. For the love of music - Peace.
Dereck, great analyst. You see details. Very sad song with a sad conclusion : there's nothing we can do.... They were unbeatable about breakup and divorce songs...Greetings from Rio de Janeiro Quarantine, Brazil
Although i know this song since its release (1976), this was an interesting analysis of it. thanks from one of the biggest ABBA fans on this planet. :-))
@@happyhawaii0711 Happy Hawaii was a great B side, as most were. I still play the 45. I also have every song, including a full (better than the bootleg) version of "Just like that".
@@joffness2 i remember how exited i was, whenever i bought a new 45 , because often they did not take an album song for the b-side. that´s long ago, man. i only have bootleg versions of Just like that. you lucky one with that full version !! :-)
I didn't even know there were things lika abba-singles until I saw a british "documentary" in 1999 or so. In my youth during the 70s/80s, there were LPs and then CDs. At least that's what we saw and bough. Singles and EPs were dad's american tradjazz from the 1950s, often in green or red colored vinyl, or my mum's parents boring schlager music :D
Good analysis. I was 14 years old when I bought 1976 the LP Arrival with Knowing Me Knowing You beeing the last on side A. Immediatelly I recogognized the sadness of the song that became the DNA of ABBA since the mid 70s. In the early 70s (Ring Ring, Waterloo, Honey Honey) the character of the songs was more optimistic, more rocking (So Long). Knowing Me Knowing You was the TURNING POINT to the long phase of top sadness songs like One of US, The Winner takes it all and (the climax of sadness...) The Day before you came. Probably parallel to the divorce of the two couples....
I agree, this song foreshadows the break-up of Bjorn and Agnetha; and Benny and Anni-Frid. Another "sadness" song is "When All Is Said and Done" that was in their last studio album, "The Visitors". Another theme that I noted in their first album, "Ring Ring", is a folk music style found in several of their songs ("People Need Love", "He Is Your Brother") that parallels American "flower power" folk music popular from 1970-73.
Which just illustrates that all their lyrics were fiction, despite all those nutcase's firm beliefs. (The fact that Björn naturally took inspiration from their own lives does not make his texts documentary.)
Wow, I naively thought they were still together and living happily ever after. This makes me mad. Why can't couples stay together? Why they split up like that?
No,,this song was recorded Long before either couple split. This is NOT about them. The always do however deliver believable lyrics and emotion in any song they did.
No solo la canción es excelente, una letra profunda y armonías vocales impecables el vídeo es muy creativo, juega con las imágenes de trios, y la pequeña imagen de Agnetha sobre la principal de Frida en la segunda parte
What was great about Abba was that they were older than their contemporaries, they all had children and divorces behind them which expressed itself in their music. I mean... who has no1's singing about divorce with children involved?!? It's some kind of maturity and sadness behind their songs. Might even call it experience. A lost age.
Their Music Videos were directed by another fellow Swede: future Academy Award Nominee Lasse Hallstrom, who must obviously have been a great admirer of the Ingmar Bergman’s work. 👍
This song is masterpiece and you can hear it as soon as you hear it. Check out the article album every song is different and its the album that they arrived with when the critics had written them off . They knew that abba meant business and were here to stay
Good analysis, as usual, Dereck. You are an intelligent analyst but one word of advice is rather than pausing the video 7/8 times which does break the continuity of the song, then try to pause, say 3/4 times and combine your astute observations then. Good Luck :)
One of my faves! glad you noticed the pauses of the song and just appreciated the emotion that was also there, in the melody, very smart. Younger generations tend to overlook those details and layers in music for some reason, the music industry picked up on that and i think it's the reason the quality lowered quite a bit and mainstream music didn't just become simpler, but simplistic. I like that you pick up on things so fast and accurately, maybe pause a little bit less, not to please anyone in particular, i think it will allow you to pick up on even more details, then you can react and then give us your insight, i think it will make for an even better reaction because you do make great observations, and you're cute, so don't take it as a harsh criticism lol, keep up the good work ;)
Hay dude.. I grew up with abba..there songs not all reflect on there journey either if it's professional or personal.. when I heard this song I knew they would one day break up.. Loved your reaction!!
You need to check out Fleetwood Mac's Rumors album. This album, which is one of the best selling albums in history, was all about the infidelity of the band members. The members were in relationships with other band members and cheating with other married members all in the same band. It is an incredible album.
They are back together and have recorded 5 new songs to be released in 2021 2 songs , one a ballard I still have faith in you and an uptempo ,Don,t shut me down .
New generation can not appreciate music. They listen with their eyes.
Thanx mate.
Sad but true🥲
My favourite song of Abba
I have heard this song literally hundreds of times, and it still gives me goosebumps. 🙂
Same here!!!
Been listen to ABBA since 1973 and I'm born 1968, so I was 5 y.o when my journey with ABBA started. ❤
this is one of their masterpieces. this song is one of those songs that while it lasts, when you are listening to it, you think "this song is perfect, this is the best song in the world, ever".
sure, when it ends you can think "nah, it's good but it's not the best song ever", and then you play it again and you think "YES, IT IS THE BEST SONG EVER!".
When this song was released I was 14 and this was going straight to number one for weeks in Germany ,since than I was a huge fan `till now
No, no, the best is "The day before you came".
i love most abba songs, but i used to keep rewinding and rewinding this particular one as a little kid because it was so good, especially that part in the chorus where they harmonize and then it segues to the guitar instrumental.
Es ist sehr amüsant zu sehen, wie junge Menschen auf richtig gute Musik reagieren. Ich bin schon 54,und kenne ABBA aus meine Kindertagen..Abba habe ich immer in meine Leben gehört und werde ABBA hören bis ich sterbe.
This song is simply PERFECTION...
They created musical masterpieces from their private drama. You can hear the pain and the emotions and that it is authentic. I have so much respect, that they were mature enough to still do music together, to write about their heartbreak and do music videos.
One of my top 5 ABBA songs. The vocals in the chorus sections (harmonies) are insanely sharp and gorgeous. Like an angelic choir.
My favorite ABBA song. Your reaction is so sweet and emotional and a testament to the power of Benny and Bjorn’s skills.
Frida is great!!! Leading vocal is fantastic!!!
Luv the beautiful Frida more than anyone else ever
This is my absolute favourite ABBA song. It’s beyond stunning
It’s so nice to see you truly admire ABBA. They are amazing.
A masterpieces of ABBA I love this song, one of the best for me ever ♥️🅰️🅱️🅱️🅰️♥️
The secret of the voices of Agnetha and Frida was that they fit together, how rarely do two voices fit together. They always stood face to face during the recordings so that they could see when they were singing and when they started. Often times it sounds like it is a single voice. That's just awesome.
They used very few words in this song, but they used them brilliantly. Even the musical break is simple, but powerful.
This was released several years before they actually divorced. Quite prophetic.
they also did dance while the the music still goes on which is similar
This has been my favourite Abba song since it was released as a single here in the UK in 1977. It is PURE GOLD by the masters of pop.
My favourite hit of theirs but they also had songs just as good that wasn't a hit for example Move on & The Piper (my opinion i know)
With ABBA they didn't just make music with each other ,they had real relationships , families everything .All the ups and downs and this really shows more than talent and a gift.They really feel and lived this with each other. I wish to have a powerhouse love like that even if only for a while.
The key to this song is "honesty," and, yes, Agnetha is,"very pretty," as most obvious Latinos such as Dereck comment about blondes, but MANY have commented in other sites that it was really Frida who was at the height of her beauty.
Frida is a natural beauty. She is class, grace and more of a reserved presence. Strangely though she is the one that is the most playful of the two. Agnetha is more of the sex kitten.
I'll take Agnetha over Frida any day and I'm not really into blondes. Something about her.
I don't like blonds! Love amazing Frida!!!
My favorite ABBA song! Tnx for your elaborate reaction.
Prophetic song for these couples years before the divorces. I can't even imagine having a normal, wholesome relationship in a machine as big as ABBA was back in the day.
Hey there Dereck, your the best reactor of all, you truly know how to critique every single song so perfectly, thankyou for that, I really enjoyed all songs that you analyze of ABBA......you have a great ear where you completely tune into each and every song that both Annifrida and Agnetha sing whether lead vocals or harmonized together, congratulations on your perfect ability to do so. Once again thank you and I will continue too keep tuned into your station, over and out and peace! I'm guessing you know the generation in which I were born now. Lol.😊 take care.
One of the best ABBA productions according to Benny and of course one of my top 5.Great job Dereck !
This was one of their absolute finest. ABBA at the very top of their game. Colossal Hit all over Europe including 5 weeks at No 1 in the UK.
Fun Fact .... for the "turning around" scenes they were stood on revolving flower pots :-)
Yes, I remember Lasse Hallström telling this story. These parts of the video were filmed at his apartment. 🙂
yep, Abba moved a whole generation. Grew up with them, puberty to be more precise. Goose bumps still, years later.❤
BOTH ladies are very beautiful with amazing voices ✌💕
Lasse Hallström, the director of the video was a genius already when he did the ABBA-videos. These videos were not as expensive as Music videos became later in the 80's, but the different tricks Lasse created back in the 70's still work very well.
The greatest break-up song of all time! Everything about this song is perfect. Dancing Queen gets the kudos and is a superior song, but Knowing Me, Knowing You is beyond superior.

Still does even now. Boy do they know how to go for the emotional spot. It also touched your emotions. I'm a good body language observer. Wanna give ya a hug bruv. Lol
This is a gem and other masterpiece of ABBA in the World pop music of all times .
when this song was recorded the couples were still happy.
loved the reaction thanx. as a swede i always took these song for granted...
Amazing ABBA reaction videos.. Please continue with ABBA.
This is one of the most iconic songs ever written and performed. On another note - you should see how they made this video - it is very funny.
From the same album the last song is with no lyrics, just music and choirs but it's soooooo emotional,
The whole arrival album is genius from 1st to 10th song 😍😍😍
Love this song! This is the first song I fell in love with and learned who ABBA was! I bought a Ronco Records Hits of the year 1977 the as a kid in 77!
The absolute pinnacle of popular music. Nothing better.

The songcraft on display here is off the charts. The men singing in counterpoint ends me every time.
ABBA is my all time favorite group....have all there cds
They’re standing in rotating flower pots that Lasse Halström is turning around ;-). He had a very tiny budget. And the Halström angles! You see them a lot... they’re his trademark.
Filmed in Lasses livingroom, with fabric bought on sale as a back drop.
OMG, I started tearing up, haven't heard this one in decades.😥
Yes its a tear jerker I'm looking forward to hear this song if it's a new arrangement or the old version for the next year's concert
the melodic side of this song gives you chills down your back!!!!!!
Frida♡

Wonderful analysis Dereck.
Good reactions Dereck! I also like that you react to the official videos..
FRIDA👑❤I LOVE YOU.
Both couples ended up divorced. So this song has meaning for them.
This song make feel something that I cant explain, like sadness, nostalgic...but I love it.💔❤️💜💛💚💙
Abba and Amy Winehouse both helped save my life on numerous dramatic occasions. ? . 🌈💚😇🐾

You need to do The Day Before You Came - Abba's masterpiece
The Day Before you Came is an amazing song. I think we need more ABBA reactions then The Day Before You Came at the end.
The last song they recorded.
Martin Nilsson we’ve been waiting for two years to hear their latest recordings...

My favorite ABBA song, but I still think you should take my advice and get to the "album" songs that hardcore fans adore. :)
I didn't even know there were things lika abba-singles until I saw a british "documentary" in 1999 or so. In my youth during the 70s/80s, there were LPs and then CDs. At least that's what we saw and bough.

Classic masterpiece.
They recorded a great version in Spanish, for their "Gracias Por La Musica" LP, released in 1980, which was titled "Conociendome, Conociendote". 🎼💓
@Marvin Morawski 👍😎🎼🎶🎵
Interestingly, this song was written years before either couples' separation.
Which just illustrates that all their lyrics were fiction, despite all those nutcase's firm beliefs. (The fact that Björn naturally took inspiration from their own lives does not make his texts documentary.)
I did not realise that !
@@LiaGarciaNu1 released as a single in 1977, written and recorded in 1976.
But Benny had a partner from 1961-66 with whom he had 2 children, and Frida was married from 1964-70 and had 2 children in that marriage.
Wow, I naively thought they were still together and living happily ever after. This makes me mad. Why can't couples stay together? Why they split up like that?
Hey Derec Realy Dig "Derec Reacts
Abba know how to convey the emotions in their songs and also they pronounce every word precisely
In my youth I fell in love with Agnetha.... ;-) Greetings from Germany!
its from the album Arrival
This song was recorded in 1976,,,, but it was a 1977 hit (released).🎼
It was released on their 1976 album 'Arrival' therefore its a 1976 song.
@@AdamDawson3 in the US released in early 77
No,,this song was recorded Long before either couple split. This is NOT about them. The always do however deliver believable lyrics and emotion in any song they did.

A very good analysis. Thanks Dereck Reacts!
What was great about Abba was that they were older than their contemporaries, they all had children and divorces behind them which expressed itself in their music.
I mean... who has no1's singing about divorce with children involved?!?
It's some kind of maturity and sadness behind their songs.
Might even call it experience.
A lost age.
You're the only reactor that has made comments on the camerawork which I like
Please don't refer to Frida as "the other singer"
The cinematography of the clip is a nod to the style of, fellow Swede, Director Ingmar Bergman.
Their Music Videos were directed by another fellow Swede: future Academy Award Nominee Lasse Hallstrom, who must obviously have been a great admirer of the Ingmar Bergman’s work. 👍
Both these two were married to the male members of the group then divorced but kept playing in the group together.
This song is masterpiece and you can hear it as soon as you hear it. Check out the article album every song is different and its the album that they arrived with when the critics had written them off . They knew that abba meant business and were here to stay
Good analysis, as usual, Dereck.
You are an intelligent analyst but one word of advice is rather than pausing the video 7/8 times which does break the continuity of the song, then try to pause, say 3/4 times and combine your astute observations then.
Good Luck :)
That's right Phyllis. It will be better for him and add to our enjoyment of the song as well as his comments :)
I agree with you
Abba is great
Beautiful song, thank you ❤

Beautiful sensitive reaction, sir🍀
You need to check out Fleetwood Mac's Rumors album. This album, which is one of the best selling albums in history, was all about the infidelity of the band members.

Agradeço pelos seus comentários...you are so cute.
Hey well done u doing all the hits continue with the list i did give u u will love the songs
the hint of Swedish yodel the girls do in the chorus is cool! (breaking up is never easy I know but I have to go) and on the track Move On as well.
The band of break up songs. Briliant. The director of this video directed "Gilbert Grape" as well.
Look at older singers also....
Sarah Vaughan, Judy Garland, Nat King Cole, Frank Sinatra..a Grek singer Marinella.. Edith Piaf...
