Sweden, Sweden, Sweden, what talents you create! What is it with this little country in the North? Answer: one of their treasures is / has been that they have a natural aptitude for singing and for music in general. It is in their genes. See for example "allsång på Skansen", Stockholm, where they meet and sing together once a week in the summertime. And their people's soul goes very, very deep. ABBA was one of the very first artists to be known outside of Scandinavia. A big hug from Norway, neighbour of Sweden.

In the 1980s, I first heard this song on "ABBA The Album" and it did its magic on me, instantly. Yes, very elevating - that's the effect it had (and still has) on me, too. By the way, the second part of the chorus (at 05:05, for example, with the brief dropping of the meloidy on the word "high") sounds like an eagle gliding, flapping its wings two times and then gliding again. What a mastery of sound symbolism! :-)

Most progressiv song of the ABBA era, and because of that, it never got the deserved recognition. The mainstream wanted "true" ABBA-songs, say easy listening and dancing all the way. Eagle is one of the more elevating songs, can make you high without drugs.

"Eagle" is ABBA's longest song, almost six minutes It is the opening song of his fifth album, entitled "ABBA The Album" (1977), which coincides with the edition and premiere of his film ABBA The Movie "(1977), which records ABBA's memorable tour in Australia and the entire ABBAmania "Eagle" was released as a single in a few countries, it's a pity that wasn't the chance to be the third single of "The Album" in UK (follow "The name of the Game" & "Take a chance on me") I go back to "ABBA The Album" After the spectacular worldwide success with "Dancing Queen" and their album "Arrival" this more versatile album and more experimental music followed, with more elaborate and deep lyrics, all the songs are of different genres, different from each other, fantastic, for me it is their best album includes the great hit "Take a chance on me", the bizarre rock "Hole in your soul", the mystical "Move on", the mini musical with the classic "Thank you for the music", each song is a must! My suggestion is very special react to all the full album "The Album" (as you did with "Voyage") It's all full masterpieces Kind regards from Buenos Aires, Argentina South América

I am really very glad you gave this song a 2nd chance. I have loved this song all my life....it's like a dream sequence. Many of ABBA's darker songs do require a 2nd or 3rd listen before they start to grow on you. Such magnificent musicians and singers they truly are....both in the 70's, 80's and still today. ABBA is the reason why I drive a Volvo (my 4th) and went to visit Stockholm in May of 2013 for the opening of ABBA: THE MUSEUM. That city and all of the country of Sweden is just so beautiful and so very glorious. More so than even Paris or France. And the people are a whole lot more friendly and welcoming to Americans as well! And for any newer fans of ABBA, get all of their albums and listen to all the songs...not just the radio hits we all know. You will find many surprises. Please don't judge ABBA just by the song or the musical Ma Ma Mia. I can assure you they go much deeper and are far more serious musicians than just that.

If you listen to how ABBA developped from 1975 til 1978, you just know why that had to stop making music from 1981 on. Pop just couldnt satisfy them anymore. They had run in front of the development of pop music for some years, and pop culture could not follow them anymore at that time. They were just too good, in so many ways! Eagle was the first proof, The Day B4 u Came and The Visitors the last: they had exceeded the boundaries of pop music.

I was at a beach resort in the Italian Riviera back in 1978 when I first heard Eagle. Actually, it was the video, and it was aired in an Italian television music show. It stopped me on my tracks. I was completely mesmerized by it. It remains one of my favorite songs of all time by any band. That guitar interlude breaching the the 3rd chorus is absolutely breathtakingly beautiful.

One of the very best ABBA songs, and probably the closest vocally making it virtually impossible to seperate Agnetha and Fridas vocals. I remember the first timeI heard it was watching 'ABBA - The Movie' in a small cinema when it had just been released nationally in the UK. Never understood why they made the awful edit for radio when the single was released in a limited amount of territories, or why the single wasnt issued in the UK or USA, where i think it would have changed a lot of opinions. Also never understood why they filmed a promo video for it when they had the awesome scene from The Movie yet other singles never got visuals. I guess it was all down to timing and availability. For the lyrics Bjorn was inspired by the Richard Bach book 'Jonathan Livingstone Seagull' and demostrates freedom. Apprently it was included in the 1979 tour setlist because both Agnetha and Frida loved singing it and all the guitar work is by Janne Schaffer and Lasse Wellander who worked with ABBA throughout their career.

Abba never sounded so mature, progressive, yet ABBA, third voice all over, hymnic and no bubble gum pop at all... the instrumentation is beyond anything they'd done before or after.... yes great songs were about to come, but many got a very simple arrangement... Eagle is everything and better. i think the interlude is shortened and the end of course is missing... over 2 minutes are cut out....

Agreed the edit for single release in selected countries was a big mistake and never understood why it wasnt an international single as I always thought it would have done well in the UK and USA.

@@123billydog musically i don't like the edit versions at all, but at the time, even on german radio a 5min+ song rarely got airplay... so on radio it might have been ok to produce some edit, but the single you could purchase should have had the original album version on it... but they.. we were lucky here. It was all over the radio and a sizable top 10 hit. Of course backed by the wonderful tv appearance in may on starparade where they did Take A Chance On Me, Eagle and Thank You For The Music, which eventually got a lot of airplay too becoming a signature in its own right without being release as a side... As i understood it was - with a few exception always the individual decision of the local record company if and when they'd release a single. Abba had unlike other bands a different label in almost every country. As far as i know they could pick whatever they wanted as a single release as long as ABBA did not object... and of course if there was a pre-album single offered there was no choice for the records labels to release something else: Fernando, Dancing Queen, The Name Of The Game, Gimme Gimme Gimme, The Winner Takes It All. Exceptopn with the last album as the lead single was released simultanously with the album.. that's how it ended up different lead singles statesside and in Europe. So it was not ABBA's decision to not release Eagle in the UK, but their record label did not see the potential...same goes for Summer Night City, Chiquitita (eventually released much later in 1979), and Gimme Gimme Gimme in the US. The record company messed up a bit... They had a huge hit with Take A Chance On Me and the US record label did not manage to come up with a follow up hit.... only a year later when Does Your Mother Know was released.... Germany and most of continental Europe was lucky in that respect as most potential singles had been released and on top were hits.... here even Honey Honey, So Long and I Do I Do were hits...

Great reaction to a great song that I think often gets overlooked and forgotten. It brings back memories of my childhood listening to my parents ABBA Greatest Host LP (yes vinyl, before even CDs were a thing). I was just looking through your ABBA playlist and can't see Angel Eyes. If you've not already reacted to it please have a listen to this one, is another one that is often forgotten k think. If you have already reacted to it please add it to your playlist.

He has reacted to Angeleyes and I can see it in his playlist but some other reactions are/were invisible since a few days. With me it was "The King Has Lost His Crown" which is back again meanwhile but "Voulez-Vous" is still not visible for me. Perhaps it is a youtube problem because it's also at the channel from Musikladen, that some videos are invisible, though they are there.

At 8 years old, this was the first ABBA song that I ever heard back in 2004 when we were learning about Vikings in school. The teacher put this in during the lesson. From that day on, ABBA gained a new fan. One of their best songs. Brings back great school/childhood memories for me.

Love when you react to Abba. This song is in my top 10 of Abba songs. The guitar solo is not in the short version. The short one ends just before the guitar solo and the long version has the added chorus at the end. Hi from Gina in Barbados. If you're going to do Eagles, do the live version from 1977 of Hotel California. The elevator scene was in Abba the movie which they used in the Abba parody you reacted to.

I think you also have reacted to their shorter album version of Gimme Gimme Gimme. I know you have reacted to their live version too. So, you MUST react to the longer studio version of Gimme Gimme Gimme. P/s: What's different between the shorter version of Eagle and this longer version is the bridge..in the shorter version, they cut out this bridge.

Gratulation for your reaction. I think it's the long offical ABBA version of 5:54 with two verses, then after the refrain the instrumental synthi-guitar part, then the refrain again with instrumental end. The radio version has not the instrumental middle part with refrain again. For me this was the first musical masterpiece of ABBA (earlier they had of course pop masterpieces) and blowed my mind (positive perplexity), the same later with the open track The Visitors Both albums have masterpieces, but for me also skipping tracks as Voyage (partly compositional abbreviations, yeah, yeah Benny; but 4 masterpieces, a happy song and ODE for say goodbye to the album era; but why ODE ends so abrupt?). All the best for you!!!

Biggest ABBA fan and EAGLE 🦅 has always been my absolute favourite! It is a clear definition that ABBA was so ahead of their time. Still the ABBA sound and a good rock 🎸 section. From what I remember, the song is a tribute to the group The Eagles. And @dereckreacts, that ABBA poster you have is the pic used for the intended UK release of this song with b/w Thank You For The Music. The original album song is over 5min and back in 70’s, song tracks were considered « too long ». The single version was shortened to over 4mîn. Again, my absolute favourite ABBA song
