Abba were more than just the usual 70s pop group. Amazing performance...

Pay tribute to the greatest pop group ever to grace us with their incredible talent.

Band: 2 sets of drums. Horn section. 2 bass players, 2 keyboards and 4 guitar players. 4 backup singers and 2 percussionists. Basically ABBA brought the best musicians that Sweden had at the time. Abba members themselves had far more than 500 gigs behind them per head even before the band started. Even the dude filming is now a famous Hollywood director.

That was electric!It's remarkable though that these 2 songs were ending the concert after almost over 90 minutes of performing.And still outshine for their explosive perfomance without looking tired or sounding vocally over-streched.And they even continued after this for an encore.I'm so glad you enjoyed this,thank you and the requesters for their choice.

Wow!! I had no idea they could sing like that! Those sings were amazing and the energy was incredible!!

Abba did some great music!!!

I'd like to add that to my ears, they are a totally unique mix. There's pop mixed with a bit of rock, a bit of disco, symphonic art rock perhaps and Swedish folk music. The latter only apparent for those that grew up in Sweden. Great ballads and vocal pyrotechnics to die for .. I get a tingling down my leg from some of the stuff the girls do. Gorgeous melodies .. ear-candy. This coming from a metal-head secretly in love with Frida. Cheers 🍺

What a lovely surprise Chad! thank you very much for this special live reaction from ABBA I like to see You enjoy with the energy and músic of ABBA on stage it's true Chad, this is the same group as the one in the previous video is that ABBA is absolutely versatile, although its essence is pop music, it makes ballads, rock, disco music, regae, folk, musicals, dramatic, eyc I add a context data that elevates what you say The recital is the closing of the North America/Europe Tour September/November 1979 At the beginning of that year the blonde singer Agnetha and the guitarist and singer Björn had already separated; However, their professionalism allowed them to share the love for their music and that energy put on stage Something about the two songs: "Does your mother know" with Björn added to Agnetha and Frida at the leads vocales, was the second single from their six album "Voulez Vous" (1979) pick #3 in UK "Hole in your soul" wasn't a single, it's a hidden gem in their five album "ABBA The Album" (1977) ABBA gave the best of itself in that mythical setting; It had been almost two hours and 20 songs And they arrive at this epic moment with the four in front of their audience (after a memorable melodic and heavenly bridge of the singers Agnetha and Frida and their highest notes in all ABBA history) Then there will be the special numbers. They will return to close with the emotional "The way all friends do" followed by their greatest worldwide hit "Dancing Queen" And the final bonus will be the iconic "Waterloo", the song that gave them the triumph there in England in the remembered 1974 Eurovision Contest that put ABBA in the consideration of the music world Here is the link to this final trio of songs ("Waterloo" with image of the first minute, but the complete audio) kzfaq.info/get/bejne/g8uCeLaLz9ecemQ.html Thank you again so much for giving us this gift for all ABBA fans My best wishes for you from Buenos Aires, Argentina, South América And see in other videos and react

The musicians they brought with them on their tours are essentially a who-is-who of famous Swedish musicians. Many of them with their own solo careers and all of whom have spoken with fondness of the experience of touring with a mega band such as ABBA. The costumes are totally over the top .. but hey this was the late seventies and many bands (check out the costumes of Led Zeppelin) just looked like this. ABBA were a great live band! Cheers 🍺

They were always great to dance to. Great songwriters, great singers, always surprising with their range of music. Been a fan since they won Euuovision with Waterloo in 1974. Thank you for this reaction Chad!

Abbas was one of the greatest band ever. I love both songs, but does your mama know is my favorite

I am so blessed to say i was there. Nov 9th 1979. One of the greatest nights of my life. ABBA were known for their catchy pop or agonising ballads. But with other songs on albums they had so many different levels. Hole in your Soul is pure rock. Another that will open your eyes is The Visitors. Its very dark and has a very deep beat.

Hi Chad, This is ABBA on fire!!🔥🔥🔥🔥💯

Agneta goes really high in hole in your soul,,,,,,,,,LOVE FROM SWEDEN😂

Another fairly unknown song is "Move On". It is simply beautiful!

Benny is responsible for the famous "backwards B" in their official logo. When they were doing a photo shoot for a German magazine (Bravo), each of the members held up their respective letters, and Benny held his backwards (by mistake/unkowingly)......... and then after that, they used it as their official logo, which was "trademarked".

Enjoyed this Chad ! ... fond memories. I was 17 in 1979 when the album ABBA Voulez Vous came out and inside the cover I excitedly found an announcement flyer that read "ABBA is coming to America !" What fantastic news, the Swedish Fab Four embarking on a concert tour of North America for the first time. Then my heart sank for most of the concert dates were for the east and west coast with a few scattered in some northern states....none for my state, Arkansas nor surrounding states. Since that age I have seen many artists in concert, including some Abba Tribute shows, however to this day one of my biggest regrets was missing the '79 ABBA concert. I am beyond thrilled for their great music comeback with new album VOYAGE !

Thank you Chad! My favorite song by them is "Take A Chance On Me" ... a great song to dance to!

Abba release their new album This Friday so good time to get on the ABBA train, and the train is long and full of goodies.

For similar energetic live performances from ABBA, do listen and react to their other Australia 77 live performances for songs like- 1. He is your brother 2. Why did it have to be me 3. Tiger, among others

What a range!

they still are great. Can you also react on Abba song ( So Long video Made in Sweden For Export 1975)

Exciting, exciting 😀..yea..Abba did some fast songs..wow..

U R awesome as well dig your style! And 4 being inspired by ABBA I was in there official fan club . They started in 72 ended in 82. Than after 40 yrs . Recorded more awesome music. Magnificent. U will B amazed my friend you'll C! 🥳

another comment of special moments: 2:38 Björn & Agnetha (just separated a few mounths ago) 2:53 Agnetha & Benny playing piano together (at right side) 3:45 Björn & Frida 4:27 Agnetha & Frida with the guitar player 6:25 Frida & Benny 6:33 Agnetha & Frida like an angels in the fantástic gorgeous bridge 7:17 all four ABBA members in front to your fans 7:43 Björn & Benny (11:36 I'm on the list to request this)

I'm still angry at my mother for not allowing me to go to the concert in 1979, ABBA's only trip through the USA. GRRRRR. If you werent aware Abba has recently put out 2 new songs after not recording together for 40 years. Check them out. They are very very ABBA and quite excellent.

Thanks for the ABBA. Yeah this is one of my favorite performances by them. But that whole concert is fire. And what a great band made up of their session players. As far as I know that concert footage is the only time we got to see the reserved Agnetha really cur loose. And of course Frida was always great live. Have you seen "Why Did It Have To Be Me" live from the Australian tour? Frida really shows how it's done in that one.

Not sure which particular night at Wembley that this was filmed. They played six consecutive evenings there and I went on the Thursday, the fourth concert. Their 'Live At Wembley' album came from the last one but I think other nights got recorded too. Anyone who claims ABBA were a 'studio band' ought to be shown this or listen to that album. Yes, they didn't tour as much as some other huge bands but it certainly wasn't because they couldn't perform live. As you can see, they had two drummers, three guitarists (including Bjorn), bass and additional keyboardist to recreate that big sound on their records. And those girls sure could sing..

Wowww amazing. Loved this ❤

They performed sold out shows from 5 November to 10 November, 1979, at Wembley (London). I still have the tour programme from the "European & North American Tour 1979" . 😍😘💕🅰🅱🅱🅰♫♫♫♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♥

ABBA is not only the best pop group ever. They are the best rockers too.

Thanks a lot! Great songs! Great reactions! 🎶💃🕺🏼🙋‍♀️

remember, there was no autotune back then, no earphones and wireless mics. this is old school

WEMBLEY brings out the BEST in Artists/BANDS!! (think Queen and INXS)

just unreal!!!!

Their manager Stikkan (Stig) Anderson, was the one who had the idea of taking the first letters from each of their first names, and come up with the now-world-famous acronym....ABBA. They had a hard time at first, because in Sweden, there was a fish-canning company with the name "Abba", and they had to promise that the newly-named musical foursome would not "tarnish" the name of their company. 😆🐟

How am I supposed to sleep now. I can't un-see that! Seriously fun songs. I am having some kind of flashback to a ONJ TV special and her guests were ABBA and Andy Gibb. It would have been late 1970's. Maybe I dreamed it, or have used one too many prescribed substances since then. Anyway...thanks Chad. The energy was palpable. I enjoyed it.

Listen to Abba Dancing queen

Great song Chad,. 🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶😍🎶😍🎶🎶😍🎶🎶🎶😍

at 7:56 Hole in your soul the horn lets AGNETHA now the key she has to hit at 7 :10 most of high not is not picked up because she is above the Limiters of the recording , ,around and above a F 7. She is one of the very few singers in POP music to have a Pitch_Perfect B2 - F 7 range

A bit of rock and roll....yea...

Thanks Chad. Saw ABBA at the Concord, California Pavilion during this tour in 79. I remember it like yesterday. Love the share, thank you!!!

,,Well, congratulations! Not very many people react to this song (Hole in your Soul). Thanks for doing it.

Bjorn the purple peacock. Watch them thar tights don't blow! It's a wonder they had snow in Sweden with the hot moves of Anni-Frid and Agnetha!!! The outfits sure were tacky in the 70's but everyone wore them! Two beautiful girls with amazing voices and two guys Benny and Bjorn who were amazing composers and musicians. Many of their songs sounded simple but were quite intricate. I think I mentioned before that they were inducted into the R&R Hall of Fame by Robin Gibb who said good music lasts forever. ABBA made good music. They were one of the biggest touring acts of the 70's. Hope you can do more of their songs. A beautiful one is "Slipping through my fingers". kzfaq.info/get/bejne/kLhzo5SetcqlcX0.html It was "uncool" to like ABBA but there were a lot of secret and not so secret fans. You are on the edge of another deep rabbit hole. Thanks Chad.

Please reaction to ABBA's "Don't shut me down" 2021 :)

[NOTE TO MYSELF 5:17]

👍

Great reaction! Funny how you people (yes, You) get startled by the diversity of ABBA. They are artists to the core. Have you ever heard an ad for like Pepsi with ABBA. NO WAY. They have integrety and yet they are commercial beyond most other bands.

Outfit: "Stupid Sexy Flanders!"... Joke From "Simpsons"... Well done - you're a gentleman!

Fun reaction! FYI - I believe that the band is pronounced Ahh ba. :)

How about reacting to KATE BUSH WITHERING HEIGHT'S.

I always liked ABBA, but I'm not sure I cared for this selection. Interesting fact: at one time, ABBA was the second-highest Swediah import, as far as money generated. #1 was Volvo.
