Awesome. You are back on the ABBA train :)

You have good taste and a wide musical appreciation which causes me to appreciate you as well.

Love your reaction! Love Abba!

Please do *SOS* - This was really the song that showed the world that they were not going to be a one-hit-wonder after Waterloo. It really is a perfect pop song. It has a a beautiful melody in the verses, several 'hooks' and it rocks a little bit too;)

Just a nice dude enjoying great music. You can't hate this

Nice feelings attached to this song for me. It brings back one of my earliest memories: I was 6 and my dad used to dance with me on this song, me standing on his feet.... :D

Whenever I hear this song, I'm fifteen years old again, at the annual Fair, the smell of sugar floss and popcorn in my nose and the sounds of dinging gambling machines and the joyous screamin of the people in the bumping cars and other fairground rides in my ears. And ABBA over the speakers, of course. Gosh, those were good times... I didn't realize it then, but they were such GOOD times...

Finally caught up with your current Abba videos. Loving your reaction to them. I've listened to them since I was in middle school. I would still highly recommend Gimmie Gimmie and Under Attack by them.

The mark of a great band is the ability to write great songs that do not fit into a formulaic box. ABBA wrote a ton of great songs. Each one is its own song. They wrote their music from the heart. Therefore you get a wonderful variety of fabulous songs.

Love your channel and reactions so much...Oh I do, I do, I do, I do, I do, 😉

Oh how blessed we were in the 1970s and into the early 1980s...ABBA, paralleled with The Carpenters. Each to their own with sadness in their lives. As many would agree, the sad songs are the best, as I realize from interviews with many groups and singers(especially The Bee Gees) once described as “morbid” by an eminent interviewer!

Please please react to Slipping Through My Fingers! It's another beautiful ABBA song

I really enjoy your reactions as I like the way you behave. So many put up a show, trying to be cool and are quite loud. You are just relaxed and normal and talk in a very pleasant way. You seem to be a very nice guy.

Yeah- Frida really rocks on that one!! Abba singing the blues.... and how!!!

You have to check out a 90’s movie called Muriel’s Wedding. Muriel wants her life to be as good as an ABBA song, she wants it to be as good as Dancing Queen. She dreams of getting married and walking down the aisle to this song. It’s a very funny movie, a rom-com if you’re in the mood for it. I think I’ve seen it about a dozen times lol, I love it!

BTW, the music style in this song is very much like Dansband (lit. "Dance band"). A popular style among the "older" generations in the Nordics, with its origin in Sweden. I'm not much for the style myself, but there are some fun mashups under the "band name" Per-Arnez that I can recommend like "50 öre goes dansband" and "per-arnez - stomp".

Love love love ABBA. Great.

Killer pop hooks, great harmony, and pretty girls... what's not to like?

This is simply a gem. It lifts your spirits in the darkest of days!

Loving your ABBA reactions. I love The Day Before You Came and hope you react to it at some point.

Perfection! But without the guys there would be no ABBA as we know them. This group consists of individuals who somehow complement each other and merge into this incredible organism we know as ABBA. Miracle of Music!

What a great guy you are. You appreciate what many over look.

This was very early ABBA, mid-70's. It's worth listening to their early tracks too, some fantastic music at the start of their careers too!

It's odd that you should say that every ABBA song sounds totally unique. Back in the 70s and early 80s, there were some radio DJs that were convinced that all their music sounded the same. I agree with you.

Other ABBA songs I recommend: The Name Of The Game Summer Night City Me And I My Love My Life If It Wasn't For The Nights

Loved this song in movie Muriels wedding. Always made me laugh when she walked down the aisle to this song 😃

Absolutely love your female artist appreciation idea! Here are a couple greats: “Silver Spring” by Fleetwood Mac (Stevie Nicks the female singer) This song is powerful. And “The Man with a Child in his Eyes “ by Kate Bush. Very beautiful piano ballad. Also by Kate Bush, “Running up that Hill”

When you start your girl week, please play "love will keep us together"by Captain and Tenille. Great number one song from the seventies. Thanks for the reaction videos, they are great.

Female singers/groups: (late 50's-early 60's) Connie Francis "Stupid Cupid", Della Reese "Don 't You Know", Leslie Gore "It's My Party", Brenda Lee "I'm Sorry", Patsy Cline "Crazy" or "Sweet Dreams", The McGuire Sisters " Sugartime", The Ronettes "Be My Baby", (mid-60's-70ish) Petula Clark "Downtown" , Little Eva "Locomotion", Mary Wells "My Guy", Dionne Warwick "Walk On By", Dusty Springfield "I Only Want To Be With You", Sketter Davis "The End Of The World" or "Single Girl", Aretha Franklin "Respect", Nancy Sinatra "These Boots Were Made For Walking"...

A TRUE band.They can play instruments and the voices are terrific.Now a band is a few boys put together that cannot play any instruments and do not produce their own music. ABBA are timeless i doubt talent like this will ever be repeated. JB,please listen to EAGLE,that track will blow your mind.

You need to react to "Eagle", "Angel Eyes", "SOS", "Lay all your love on me", "Piper". Abba have so many good songs that it's hard to make a list of them all. You have only scratched the surface my friend! And if you want a pretty unknown song but that is really good you should react to "Dance". It's one of the few with male vocals. Björn is singing that one together with Agnetha. Also "Arrival" is a sick song! It's only intrumentals but it shows how genius ABBA really were. Also react to "The way old friends do". That song has only been performed live, there is no studio version of it available. Here you have a link to a pretty good version, with pretty good quality: kzread.info/dash/bejne/p2Vm1cmEdNWcnKg.html There is a reason why ABBA is on the top 5 list of the most commercially successful bands of all time! And they are the most commercially successful band in history coming from a non english speaking country. Actually, you probably didn't know this but they sang in many different languages. They did a whole album in spanish! I think they did "Waterloo" in English, German, French, Swedish, maybe Spanish as well, don't know about that one. Anyway, they were true geniuses when it came to languages. Here you have a good version of Chiquitita in spanish, which is a very popular song played in a lot of spanish countries: kzread.info/dash/bejne/g5uol7Btg8zMdpM.html The talent ABBA had is unmatched even until this day! Enjoy your future reactions! .. ;)

JB. I dont't believe myself I am saying this,. but I enjoy your reaction almost as much as the music itself! And I am stalking you on different threads :-)

You're hopping from ABBA hits in the early 80's to way back in '74, you'll notice how the music matures as the years go on although I think some of their early material is fantastic. Indeed, John Lennon said SOS was probably the best pop song ever written, now that is high praise coming from the one of the two genius song writers in the Beatles.

I request Gimmie , Gimmie , Gimmie , her voice really sails on that song , also listen to Angeleyes

ABBA even made a song featuring yodeling (People Need Love)!

This song is so so so much inspired by Swedish Dance Band Music ...LOL this sound is all over Sweden in what we call the Folk Parks where people meet and dance in rural areas of Sweden.

Love seeing your reactions to Abba 😊. Agnetha Faltskog (the blonde one) released a beautiful song a couple of years ago called When you really love someone. Think u will love it 😊

Addicted to 70's music fella? Dont worry,we're ALL addicts of the greatest music era in history.

Your reactions remind me of when I first discovered them. And next year, we’ll get at least one brand new ABBA song. I can’t wait for everyone’s reactions to that!

SOS Abba..great song. Tori Amos "Horses 3D HD Live. I think you would enjoy

V. J. My favorite all-time comedy. Fantastic!

If you are doing the female's then do check out these ones: more Eurthymics, Blondie, Pretenders, Berlin, Enya, Sade, Alison Moyet, Til Tuesday, Melissa Etheridge, early Janet Jackson, Stevie Nicks (both solo and Fleetwood Mac), and Christine McVie (Fleetwood Mac), Bonnie Raitt and Joan Armitrading. Oh, and the Bangles. Don't forget them.

They were just always in THE ZONE! They weren't trying to fit a certain mold or genre. They just oozed creativity and sort of like giving birth, they would just pop one out after another. It was UNNATURAL for them to try and stop the process. Bjorn was quoted as saying "everyone has about 10 years of being in their prime when they create works of excellence. We can never go back and duplicate what we did then." I sort of agree.(although I think you can be a late bloomer)

S.O.S. next please! 🤞

You should watch Muriels Wedding...full of ABBA hits 😉

Classic Abba

Takes me back to being a kid again. I think my love of sad down beat music comes from ABBA

This is in the movie mamma Mia. They had a theater and movie production from this songs with a whole bunch of their songs by a list actors watch it it if you can find it

Spot ON with your comments! 🇸🇪I Grew up on this Music!

Kenda Steeves I love Enya’s Caribbean Blue, among others.

With all these fantastic reactions to incredible songs you've been doing, I think you owe it to yourself to listen to "Dreamtime" by Darryl Hall. It's nothing like what Hall and Oates usually produce (which is why he did it solo, as it didn't fit in with what Hall and Oates the band were putting out), but it's a standout nonetheless. And while I'm here, I think you'll really love "Shattered Dreams" by Johnny Hates Jazz.

Lay all your love on me is also a great one. Loving your React vids, all the way from South Africa..

Lay all your Love on me - ABBA Please

In the last 59 years since buying my first record in 1960, this ranks as one of my Top 10 Happy Songs of All-Time :)

Thank you I did ask you to review this. another band back in the 70s called nashvill train made an album called ABBA our own way and some of the tracks on the album are awesome especially Fernando and they also have some of ABBAS backing band or so I was told. Go check them out

Roxette-fading like a flower, the look, Dangerous,spending my time. Good songs mostly sang by a girl from the same general area of the world as abba. You did a song from them not so long ago.

Female artists? Try The Power of Love --Jennifer Rush. Her voice had an icy quality that made the song distinct. (Forget Celine, except the French songs) Look up thehe unknown Laura Love's Afro-Celtic music: If You Go Now (?I think). Or go into ancient history with Nina Simone, Love Me Or Leave Me; Joan Baez's very early songs like 500 Miles or Geordie; Odetta, Joshua Fought the Battle, John Henry, Foggy Dew.

JB a must listen to is Nazareth love hurts a true classic watch and listen to it live🤗🇨🇦

Here’s a female artist from the 70s for you: Mary MacGregor “Torn Between Two Lovers.” Great voice. Interesting story.

Please, react to 80's Europop: Sandra, Modern Talking, Bad Boys Blue, C.C.Catch, Fancy, Pet Shop Boys, Kim Wilde, Secret Service, Savage. First Sandra))
