How about reacting to the world's only vocal country band, Home Free. Don't let yourselves be fooled by the vocal country part, though, unless you've heard these guys before you have never hear anything like it. Like ABBA they have incredible harmonies and complex arrangements. They do mostly covers, but they sound like originals, but also originals, and they have a music video catalogue of well over 150 songs and well over 1 billion views on KZread. I recommend starting with their cover of Man of Constant Sorrow, from Oh, Brother Where Art Thou. It will, very likely, blow your mind and want you want more.

Number 1 on Spotify and trending for days and days now... Enough said 😎

this song brings me to tears.. I think we children of th ABBA era cant help but hear Agnetha's sincere apology/love in the lyrics etc. And the lyrics are brillaint and timeless.. and one can see oneslf saying them to someone in a profound statement.

ABBA hasn't lost any of their Mojo. Brilliant music and two voices that were just meant to sing together.

ABBA has played a huge part in my musical taste and I am absolutely over the moon

THEY ARE BACK JUST IN TIME. THE WORLD NEEDS ABBA.

ABBA music is the musical equivalent of the absolutely perfect, in every way, recipe. Every ingredient is measured and used in perfect harmony: never too little, never too much.

ABBA have done a brilliant job with these first two songs,the lyrics is all about their return ,a true gift to their fans,never been done before! It just shows how much they appreciate their fans.very well written by Benny and Bjorn and beautifully sang by Agnetha and Frida 🥰

This song is truly amazing. Classic. Moving. Uplifting. ❤️

A beautiful gorgeous record ♥ by The Gods of pop. 9/10 loads better than the forgettable garbage we hear with today musicians.

You did not comment on the brilliant lyrics. It is both storytelling and symbolic for their return after 40 years at the same time. Also often using words you seldom hear in pop music, and filled with references to "the abbatars".

ABBA reuniting is one of the biggest news events ever to come out of the music business. I mean, this is HUGE. I'm trying to imagine what would have happened if The Beatles reunited while John & George were still with us, and I think this is right up there with something like that. Agnetha's name is pronounced closer to "Anyetta", although with a little extra Swedish oomph.

It definitely has the "ABBA" sound, which it should. It just happens to be ABBA. But what I think you missed in your reaction were the significance of the lyrics. It was MORE than a "nostalgic" ABBA song. It was a declaration of there determination to return to the "Music Scene". Makes the "catchy" tune much more than a "catchy tune". But sometimes it's easy to get caught up in a predetermined frame of mind, than to be open to deep interpretation. Although Agnetha stated clearly more than once to "have an open mind". Thanks for your efforts. Your reactions are always fun and informative.

Knowing that BJorn undoubtdly wrote those lyrics with her specifically in mind, and knowing that she did in facat have all that frsutrationa nd emotional sturggle back then, it' slike a tiny glimpse into the past.

just love that ABBA are true to their original sound and trying to be "contemporary"

The first song, "I Still have faith" is a song about the band members. "We can do this" and "we have each others back" sort of encouragement. This song is directly to the fans. "Im not the same" as I was, please don't shut me down because of disappointment! I think this was a wonderful way to re-introduce themselves to us!

The song is BRUTALLLL. 👍👍 Great SONGGG. 👌👌 I ❤️ ABBA. From Basque Country with ❤️.

The big global news of this 21st century for the music world is the return of the legendary Swedish pop group ABBA to the recording studios after more than 35 years (the last was "The day before you came") and the edition of his new songs after 39 years (the last was "Under attack") and a new album after almost 40 years (the last was "The Visitors") Beyond that these three data are for the Guines Book of records (I believe that No Group or Singer or Artist can come close to these incredible brands), the most remarkable thing is How they returned, with what level of quality And I must say that ABBA overcame all fears, doubts and expectations Their return is shocking and his quality is still valid "Don't shut me down" it's another surprise from ABBA A pop song was expected, but there were reservations and fears for what it could be (and here I include doubts to the voices of the girls due to their age) And we find a magnificent work The beginning is with Agnetha's voice attacking with the pleasant company of the piano. What Agnetha does in that introduction is anthology, exquisite modulating and using different nuances with her mature voice. Until Benny's signature piano glint (nod to the mega hit "Dancing Queen") and ABBA's typical pop song is with us, with the fans, because the lyrics speak to us. and Agnetha assumes that decoding of almost four decades and gives us her beautiful voice as the strings grow and lead to a memorable chorus with Frida reliving the historic third voice of ABBA But it doesn't end there, the second part adds hooks and a xylophone is added to the bells (a nod to the marimba in "Mamma Mía"), and the pre-chorus has more force with Agnetha and Frida and the violins anticipate the elevation to a chorus triumphant final anthology reminiscent of his greatest hits And it ends with a soft and sweet Agnetha voice and piano melody (nod to "Thank you for the music") Thank for your great reaction and for Your respect to ABBA music now we have a brand album Voyage that is a worldwide success Now see in next ABBA vídeo GOD bless You

It's unfortunate they seem to have dropped in the UK chart this week (midweek chart at least) but the fact that they're taking on that toxic landscape is truly incredible! 👏👌

It’s not “dated” at all.

When a group returns to the music scene after being away for 39 years, the artists are going to put the wants of their fans 1st. All the ABBA musical hooks are there and the lyrics are tied to a tight storyline. ABBA 'could' try to incorporate cues from modern artists but it would sound like a cheap downgrade and Benny would see no challenge is writing a composition using these simplistic songwriting techniques. Todays music is generally constructed by amateurs. We have very few singer / songwriters producing content these days (i.e. Dianne Warren, David Foster, etc.).

My life has been revived after listening to these two songs already from my favourite pop group.go abba go.

Loving the change of flag backdrop in honour of this song, loving the eyewear, and of course loving the song that is pure Abba! ❤❤ They brought back those Dancing Queen vibes!

I thought the lyrics and storyline were very mature and poignant (as they are now in their 70s). A woman leaves her partner and feels she has had enough despite being asked not to leave. With time, distance, reflection, and new coping skills, she makes a bold move and shows up unexpectedly at his door making her case for a do-over. Her message succinctly reiterated in the coda of the song: ' I have learned to cope and love and hope is why I am here now'. Nothing fluffy, nothing simplistic, and incredibly moving. This is what makes ABBA great. I think people forget their songs will now reflect adults in their 70s and this mid-tempo song sits well with me.

ABBA FOREVER ♾ 💖💖💖💖

They didn’t split in 82, they took a hiatus. They just never started up again Thor 40 years.

Personally I love both of the new songs, but it took me a few listens to get to the love stage for the songs themselves rather than just for the comeback. Both these new songs are musical masterpieces, though. The lyrics, so personal and specific to them, yet so relatable and so personal to me and to everyone who is aware that they've changed through their lives. These songs are about the transformation we all experience. The music is just pure genius, as ABBAs music often is. Anthems. Timeless. And so purely ABBA that is makes or hard for the mind to actually comprehend after it's been so certain for most of my life they there will never be any new songs from them. Everything about this comeback is genial! Thanks for reacting to it and if you think this is about 8v after this first listen you will very likely raise that number after another few listens. Go on. Be on the right side of history. 🥰🙏😏
