I don't understand people who say Abba was just a pop band, who made trivial music. This performance, by this supremely talented lady shows that Abba were much more than that. They wrote some magical music, with superb melodies & incisive lyrics. They are one of the great musical partnerships in music.

Anyone who says they were just a pop band clearly never tried to recreate there songs there use of phrasing and chords and progressions are very very good . This is my opinion as a guitar player

I'm 65, and this song will always be a CLASSIC, and you do it great justice. Thank you for the music!

Watch an elegant lady playing a well known melody. That’s how you can relieve all stress the most.

I would love to have them back. SOOOO much talent.

This is the language we all understand - better than English, Spanish or whatever. This is what real art has meant to be. Thank you for sharing!

I tool lessons for more than 7 years when I was yong at the conservatory, then I stopped for 6 years, but When I get back to playing and practice I was happy that I did not lose that much, and now I continue playing..you know it's only fear inside us...that's it...go a head

Somebody who clearly knows what they’re doing with a piano. Beautiful and perfect. I don’t think this could be any better. 👌🏻

If you understand and can read music - you will know how complex the chords are. ABBA were/ are MASTERS! Thank you Ulrika.

Her Grace and her skill makes the piano really singing.

When I want to relax I am loving the music the Mrs. Urika A. Rosén played all the times. She is bringing calm for my self.

That was played beautifully. One of the best versions I’ve heard of that song!

Thoroughly enjoyed your performance! Thank you, cheers 👏❤️💕

one thing i always loved about Abba, they toured the US one time, after that they are like, we dont need US tours, and they never went back, everyone else is like if you dont tour the states your not big time, Abba didnt give in, good for them!

What makes this song great is the brilliant long melody lines, nice chord progressions, the main theme consists of slow triplets, the fact that the verse lines fit exactly between the main theme, and simplicity. Most modern pop music is way too simple, sometimes I try to analyse some flat pop songs with my children in the hope they also try to find what makes songs great. It's often a combination of interesting (long) melody lines, some not-too-standard-chord progressions, some rythmic patterns / accents, a breaks and buildups, catchy lyrics, a touch of musical virtuosity, and rich sound quality. I think / hope song writing art (like abba and the beatles did) will be appreciated more in future, (much like Bach's art was recognised later).

Благодарю!!! Волшебные, чудо мелодии!.. С уважением, Р.А., старый травник, биолог, любитель группы АББА

Wonderful piano cover! Like👍. Thank you very much! 💗 Have a great day! 🌅

Keep playing and you are , undoubtedly, a winner !

The best reason to be happy. A first class lady playing a wonderful musical piece in a charming room. Life is so short.

Одна из моих любимых композиций ABBA. Пронзительно печальная. Ушедшая навсегда любовь, о которой осталась лишь память. Спасибо.

Very Classy, well played !! From a simpler time, that we can never go back to. But we can still retain the memories.

When the time comes, and I must leave this planet, 3 things I will miss most is my family, friends, and music with this level of beauty.

Sitting there playing like that, you remind me of my piano teacher when I was 11 years old. She taught me on the second floor of a very old mansion in the residential district of our city; and even though 56 years have passed since then, I can still remember walking up the brick path to the house, which in a few of my memories, was covered with autumn leaves, or sometimes with snow. As I entered up the front staircase to the porch, then through the large double doors & into the expansive foyer, then up the long curved staircase to the second floor, I became aware of the faint sounds of the practicing students, which grew louder as I climbed the staircase. As I reached the top, and inside each room I would then pass, I could clearly hear the other instructors & their students . . . some practicing on an instrument and some diligently exercising their vocals, as they went up & down the scales. My lessons there with my teacher would eventually lead to progressively more difficult arrangements & recitals, but I was too young to realize at the time how fortunate I was, and that I was actually being immersed into culture & art, if only for the two years I kept at it. Looking back, it was almost like walking into the opening scenes of the show "Fame" every week.

Ульрика, вы блистательны.

I don't want to talk About the things we've gone through Though it's hurting me Now it's history I've played all my cards And that's what you've done too Nothing more to say No more ace to play The winner takes it all The loser standing small Beside the victory That's her destiny I was in your arms Thinking I belonged there I figured it made sense Building me a fence Building me a home Thinking I'd be strong there But I was a fool Playing by the rules The gods may throw a dice Their minds as cold as ice And someone way down here Loses someone dear The winner takes it all The loser has to fall It's simple and it's plain Why should I complain But tell me does she kiss Like I used to kiss you? Does it feel the same When she calls your name? Somewhere deep inside You must know I love ABBA. Thank u !

Your playing is BEAUTIFUL! Hearing this brilliant tune isolated like this (and Chiquitita) shows the amazing musical talent within ABBA!

Minha Senhora: Você é do Melhor !!!

Beautifully play you brought out the sadness of every single note well done

I'm 50 years old and I grew up with the songs of ABBA, the Beegeez, BonyM and other great artists of the seventies. By now I have heard thousands of songs, but this song is something different. When I was still young someone told me that he cries every time he hears this song. At that time I did not understand. But now I do

Браво мадам,аплодирую стоя. ❤

well played young lady, recently bought some piano books with ABBA music in, so hopefully will get to play some myself

Loving hearing you play - you have great tempo, and classic playing style...thank you cheering me up when you play!

Thought like most people that this was just a pop song, until I saw the movie. What an incredible lyric, heartwrenching.

Beautiful music from a beautiful woman

Frau Rosén. Wunderbare Interpretation eines Meisterwerks zeitgenössischer Musik. Alle Mitglieder der ABBA-Gruppe würden Ihnen gratulieren, wenn sie dieses Video gesehen haben.

This is the saddest song ever. The soundtrack of my life.

I love this intro.... And not everyvody can play it well. You have played it nice!!! 👏👏👏👏

Played so beautifully with much emotions .

A beautyfull Piano Song. Played from a beautyfull woman

👍One of my favourite Abba songs.

Perfect. Greetings from Chile.

Just those four little notes in a row makes it all!

Wonderful! ABBA is my childhood and teenage years. So happy to feel the happiness again ❤️

I play guitar but have to admit that the piano is the King of Instruments and this is a superb performance by this talented artist.

@stevejoshua9536

4 жыл бұрын

Yes. Piano is the king because there is so much more depth of music available on the keyboard, as opposed the guitar, which makes it even more remarkable when a talented artist like Gabriella comes along, and is able to release incredible acoustical harmony from her guitar. Ulrika & Gabriella should consider recording a duet together.

Thank you for allowing us to experience you

beautifully done. Thank you. Abba was amazing and living in the US I'm sad that I didn't get to see them perform live. This has always been my favorite song from the band.

Great ! Lady ! Mindblowing ! All gold fingers... Waooo

Abba is more than a pop band.

The winner takes it all is the biggest and shiniest brilliant in a crown called ABBA. And this is a totally new dimension of that masterpiece. Thank you, Ulrika!
