HIP HOP Fan REACTS To ABBA - Chiquitita *ABBA REACTION VIDEO*
"Chiquitita" proved to be one of ABBA's biggest hits. It was featured in a 1979 UNICEF charity event, the Music for UNICEF Concert, broadcast worldwide from the United Nations General Assembly. As a direct result of this event, ABBA donated half of all royalties from the song to UNICEF.

Their sound engineer Michael B Tretow is a big reason why their songs still hold up, sonically (sure, they lack the sub bass of modern music but still). He was a bit ahead of his time with the mixing and layering of sounds. Nice to see someone paying attention to the mixing of their stuff! Another little well kept ABBA "secret" is their sometimes very funky basslines. The bass player they used most often, Rutger Gunnarsson, was a damn genius on the bass. A lot of people don't pay attention to the intricacies of the ABBA basslines.

I studied music many yrs ago and I listen to everything as the track is played. ABBA left no stone unturned and their songs are beautifully composed and worked out. They wrote ''perfect'' songs meaning you cannot improve them. ''perfect'' songs are very rare but they do pop up from time to time in the mainstream music. The Beatles wrote perfect songs too that cannot be bettered. ABBA also had a magical gliss on their songs which gave them a character all of their own. ABBA are in the top for brilliance for composition which cannot be toppled. They are of the best out there.

This song is straight from the Swedish folk music tradition. You can hear it in umm-pah umm-pah in the chorus and also the extra background vocal lines which you picked up on would be found in folk singing rounds. I've been listening to this song for 40 years and I never tire of it. I like that you appreciate the detail in their songs which only increased with their maturity. Have a listen to 'I let the music speak' from right at the end of their time together. The layers of almost choral harmonies towards the end are breath taking.

hello, i'm so glad you were here again to continue with your reactions to ABBA songs several things to say about "Chiquitita" and its context "Chiquitita" is a beautiful song, it has hopeful lyrics, a melody that starts very soft with Agnetha's solo, then grows and explodes in a powerful chorus; Agnetha and Anni Frida's vocal harmonies are of excellence "Chiquitita" was composed especially for the Concert by UNICEF, it premiered that night and its royalties are eternal for UNICEF "Chiquitita" was ABBA's greatest success in Latin America, that prompted ABBA to record it in Spanish, and its success was so extraordinary that in the following years ABBA recorded an album with its best songs entirely in Spanish And some of the intimacy "Chiquitita" was recorded in December 1978, before Christmas; days later the blonde singer Agnetha (28) and the guitarist Björn (33) was separated with two youngest childs (but they continue together in the group four years more, until their last recording in 1982) This promotional video was in February 1979 in Swizterland, their only promotional video that ABBA made without Sweden "Chiquitita" is in my Top 10 of all ABBA songs All another 10 greatest songs and worldwide hits that You can react: Waterloo Fernando Knowing me knowing you The name of the game Take a chance on me Summer night city I have a dream The winner takes it all Super trouper One of us I wish to see you soon in another reactions to ABBA songs GOD bless you and stay safe My best regards from Argentina

Hello again and thanks a lot for another reaction to ABBA songs remember: ABBA was swedish, two couples that recording as a group only between 1972/1982 You are reacting to Bee Gees too; curiosly: ABBA & Bee Gees was together in Concert for Unicef 1979 Bee Gees perforned "Too much heaven" and ABBA presents... "Chiquitita"! (all songs from this concert donated royalties to UNICEF) "Chiquitita" is an amazing ballad pop lyrics of hope, great melodies, fantastic harmonies, a beautiful song! "Chiquitita was a worldwide hit, specialy in Hyspan American countries You heard before "Dancing Queen" (with the two female in leads vocals) and "Chiquitita" now (with the blonde Agnetha in lead voice) And you are telling us that the next reactions will be Mamma Mia (the two girls in leeds vocals) S.O.S. & Gimme gimme gimme (both with the blonde Agnetha in lead voice) I suggest you for more reactions another songs with the brunette Anni Frid in the lead voice, to see the difference: Fernando Knowing me knowing you Super trouper (all these was #1 in UK) I hope for much ABBA videos Have a nice week!

Thanks for reacting to this. This song, I would say, draws on traditions in European folk music. Very singable, harmonic, balanced and with a message. In the end you feel good and complete. It doesn't aim to be hip or cool. It aims to be timeless. I think it's aged well. On another note, I remember hearing about a computer program that was written to predict the greatest pop song of all time. Countless songs were fed into the algorithm and in the end the song it finally chose was one by ABBA . . . called "Waterloo". Give that one a spin if you have a moment. It's pretty catchy. (Sorry, I just see that you DID react to it. I'll go check it out now. Cheers!)

Abba are simply an amazing band that are too often overlooked because they are often associated with Disco, a musical style that some people are just "too cool" to like. Explore further, you will find that era filled with wonderful work that people prefer to ignore because it isn't cool to like them. I'm sure you know Donna Summer, and she is often relegated to just a disco queen, but her albums were also full of wonderful R&B stuff.

Benny, on piano, wrote much of the music & Bjorn, the one on guitar, wrote lyrics. The two women did the primary singing and their voices worked so well together that the sound was fantastic. They had excellent studio musicians including a bass player named Rutger Gunnarson who died recently and very highly regarded for his skills on bass. There was a great studio engineer, Michael Tretow, and a sound man named Claes Gaiijerstam who both helped create the ABBA sound. They sold 385 million albums around the world. The combined net worth is more than $1 billion.

ABBA put Sweden on the "Pop Map" - starting with "Waterloo" in 1974. None of the members spoke very much English, since Swedish is their native tongue - and the ladies learned the text to each song (at first...) phonetically. Don't worry, Your "one hit wonder" comment is long forgotten - instead, Your enthusiasm for these four talented members of iconic Pop Royalty is what warms my heart.💕

I'm a Spanish native speaker and Chiquitita is a little girl. They're talking to a little girl and this song was used by Unicef in those days.

Super Trouper released in 1980 was the band's 9th hit No. 1 in the UK. For 20 years, the performance placed ABBA in 4th place in the all-time rankings, behind the Beatles, Elvis Presley and Cliff Richard.

I like your honesty. You say you studied recording arts, 42 years ago when this song came out there was no "Recording Arts" they practiced what sounded and this good is still good today. I really do appreciate your point of view on ABBA, please say it right its Ab as in your stomach muscles, and AH as in the noise of relief AbAh. Cheers mate, keep up the good work

The lines “so the walls came tumbling down / and your life’s a blown-out candle / all is gone and it seems too hard to handle” absolutely wrecks me!!!!

I believe Chiquitita means little girl. They are comforting a young girl who is sad, as parents will do, hence, their smiles and the smiling snowman. To let her know that everything will be okay. I love how you picked up on the background "ad lib" as you call it (hey, I learned something new!) I LOVE that about their music - you can hear it in a lot of their songs. Also, if you're interested, check out the Electric Light Orchestra (ELO) with Jeff Lynne. He wrote in a lot of that kind of layering in their music. Especially check out the polyphonics of Ticket to the Moon - awesome song in D minor! Again, I love your reaction to hearing this music - I'm a lot older than you and grew up with this stuff and it still blows my socks off lol!!

Chiquitita is a refugee from South America to Sweden, but now she is Anita’s and Annefried’s best friend, and they are trying to help her. The piano outro is amazing.
