They were pop royalty in the 70’s. Hit after hit, they ruled the pop airwaves. But, if you were a teenage male, you could not be caught dead listening to them. Just not cool.

This is 100% my favorite ABBA song. I have a very vivid memory of floating out of the disco club late one night in the ‘70s with two of my best friends - drunk and stoned - while this song was blasting out from the club to the parking lot. We were singing it at the top of our lungs. I think we were probably about 21 or 22 years old. It’s one of those moments in time that you just never forget.

I've always been proud to be from where I'm from, but after some deep thought, it makes no logical sense. Pride in something you had nothing to do with just seems so ridiculous now. I'm not complaining or being negative here at all. It applies to me as well, of course. I just find it to be a strange and interesting concept. It's still there, inside me. When my favorite team wins, when someone I know or a relative achieves something. Tribalism, I suppose. Which would tie it to survival instinct, I believe. Anyway, something to think about. I had a couple of ABBA albums when I was a kid. Great band!

Absolute blueprint of how to write a timeless masterpiece. Original video has over 900 Million views. Pop Royalty ❤. When this song is performed at the Abba Voyage show in London, it is an endorphin overload. Seriously, it just heightens all the senses. To be in an arena of 3,000 people just letting themselves go, "having the time of their lives ", is a joy to behold ❤

Abba slaps hard. Alex’s anologies. 😂 must be scientific! Disco musics finest. Everyone hit the dance floor. Happy hump day everyone. Thanks A&A.

Abba proved that you could produce a perfect song but with lyrics that had real depth and meaning, not throwaway bubble gum "baby baby" words. Impeccable.

One of the greatest records ever! 'The Winner Takes it All' is the obvious next step into the world of these Swedish geniuses.

Oh so good. One of the greatest pop songs in history. Inarguably S tier.

Thanks. On a related note, great songs can be successfully made cross-genre. I once heard the great Dwight Yoakam claim this--on an npr interview I believe--and broke out with his guitar on air with a killer country-rockabilly style version of this song. It was so cool.

Very fun. Glad you liked it. The hit that put them on the map was "Waterloo," which won the Eurovision song contest in the 70s. You should check that song out.

60's and 70's had the best music of all time. Glad that this platform is affording all you youngsters the opportunity to experience it.

It gives a swell of pride to see the next generation enjoying Abba's music. I grew up with their music, ridiculed for doing so but 30yrs later their music is still very much relevant. Keep up the good work boys.

From 1975-81 they were the biggest band in the world. For an alien wanting to hear how to craft a pop song then any ABBA hit from that era will do it

"lay all your love on me" has such a cool vibe to it "slipping through my fingers" is more mellow but the lyrics are really nice

Seconded. You will absolutely ❤ Lay All Your Love On Me. Based on everything I know about your tastes. It’s a banger. Off to listen right now.

Winner Takes It All, Gimmie Gimmie Gimmie, and Eagle are my fav Abba songs. I used to play Dancing Queen every happy hour at The Brass Monkey back in the day...people will groan, but then they sing along by the end.

Abba is just an S tier group- I loved rolling around my local skating rink to their hits, I mean i truly was born in the 90s, but their hits last forever 😂.

ABBA gets flak & hate for being disco or "brainless" bubblegum pop, but they totally transcend those genre labels into musical magic that is, quite simply, fun. They also have so many hits that it's hard to pick just one out of their deep, deep well to be next. Perhaps Waterloo or Mamma Mia (if you want something even more upbeat & peppy than this) or Winner Takes It All (if you want something more melancholy yet also very emotionally powerful).

I vouch for "SOS" for their next ABBA choice. "Knowing Me, Knowing You" is right up there, too; it's one of the greatest breakup songs to ever hit the Top 40.

I was raised on classic rock, hard rock and heavy metal but there is something about ABBA that I can’t shake. Their music is infectious! You can’t help but dance when you hear this. They are my guilty pleasure 👍❤️

That big sound, reminds me of the "wall of sound" effect many big bands of the 60s, thrived on. Agnetha and Frida, are so underrated as singers these ladies are legends in their own right.

Great to see you guys loving ABBA ! .. For a PERFECT pop song, you simply MUST check out their wonderful "SOS" .. I believe it was named by John Lennon and Pete Townsend as their favourite pop song .. The production on it is simply superb, as is the performance .. Pure magic !
