Movie was terrible

When ABBA came to Australia they caused crowd reactions unseen since the Beatles tour in 1964. They were insanely popular here.

It has been said any times that ABBA, by far, is the hardest musical act to try and emulate. The way they did their harmonies, and the way they put together, and layered, their musical productions, make it a nightmare for cover bands to try and do them justice. You may not notice it at first, but if you really listen to their music, the pure genius of ABBA is undeniable. And the harmonies of those two ladies...they have been imitated MANY times, but never close to being duplicated. They are, and always will be, one of the greatest bands of all time, IMO.

I remember living in Germany as a kid in the mid-late 70's, and ABBA was EVERYWHERE. As a early teen, it was an unwritten law that they were horrible. Peer pressure made you swear that KISS, Zepplin, Alice Cooper, etc were the best. But I quietly would sing along when ABBA was on the radio, or when my parents played an ABBA tape in the car. There was just no denying their vocals and musical arrangements.

Or "The Piper"

abba were very professional musicians. they put a lot of hard work and attention to detail into their songwriting

If you pay attention, even though the songs sound upbeat, there's a layer of DARKNESS in just about every song ABBA has ever done. It's one of the reasons their music is SO addictive.

Oh yes. More of the special blend of voices that is ABBA. Two suggestions for next time are Voulez-Vous and I Do, I Do, I Do, I Do, I Do. I don't think you have done either of them. A Super Trouper is the name of a follow spot, the light that isolates the stars and follows them around the stage. The song is about the singer on the stage being lit by the spot and feeling isolated on the stage where she can't see her boyfriend or the audience.

Super Trouper named after the stage spotlights just like the one at the very start of the video

@aardvarkmaximus7688

Unfortunately that wasn't a Super Trouper shown in the video, it was a CCT Silhouette 10, still a follow spot but very much cheaper and less bright. Super Troupers, made by Strong Lighting, are very much larger, use a Xenon lamp and designed for very long throw applications where the follow spot is a long way from what is being lit, like at stadium concerts.

ABBA was one of mine and my partners all time favorites. It's too bad the two couples divorcing at the top of their careers broke them up. They tried to reunite a little later in the early 80' s, but there was too much history. They came back together in 2018 and produced another studio album. However; I am partial to the great classics that still have a place in this millennium. Great four part harmony. Canadian Grandma Lori. C.

you have to listen to ABBA's "I Still Have Faith In You" After 40 years they came back and this song was the first one of their new songs nominated for a Grammy. It is unique. It is an anthem to about their return. The video is exceptional as it is a historical footage review of ABBA. You must do it just to see the uniqueness of the song.

Dancing Queen, which might be one of the best pop songs ever written and performed, when one of the boys who composed it brought it home for one of the girls to hear and just played it on the piano it was so beautiful she cried...

'Part of a success that never ends.' - ABBA rules!

"Dancing Queen" was released as a single in Sweden on 16 August 1976... you'll love it 💃

Without looking any details up, I can immediately tell you this got to number one, in the UK, around December 1980. Big changes and upheavals, regarding parents divorce, and moving home happened to the 7 year old me, at that point, and my mind always gets zoomed back to that point in time, upon hearing this song. Abba were perhaps the greatest pop band ever. Perhaps. And oh....I say this, completely without any ego, or "I know better than you", but the much more accurate way of saying Agnetha, is to pronounce it "Ann-yetta". Keep up the good work, people 👍

I have 75 ABBA songs on my playlist. Love them all, and I've been listening to them for close to 50 years now. They all make me want to dance and sing along. They are the sound of joy to me. "One Man, One Woman" and "Move On" are probably my favorites, but "Dancing Queen" has to be their most iconic song. It is the perfect disco hit.

yeah, the super trouper was the main spotlight which would highlight the performer on stage the theme of the lyrics is how a performer can be facing thousands of adoring fans but still be feeling alone & isolated the "super trouper" is a symbol of how the performer is lit up & made to be visible & apart from everyone else it's a paradox, to have great status & fame....yet be intensely lonely at the same time
