Synthwave... ABBA approved of synth for sure... they WERE the "wave" in the late 70s and early 80's along with many peers like Moroder and others. "Gimme! Gimme! Gimme! (A Man After Midnight)" was covered by Malmsteen and sampled in "Hung Up" by Madonna with song writing credits being given in part to Benny and Bjorn, (she wrote a letter to the boys to plead for the sample). "The Visitors" is a mysterious thumper when it gets going, and "Lay All Your Love on Me" which Erasure covered has almost a choral quality to the chorus that mesmerizes you. They also tried many styles, the prog-styled "Eagle"...incredible vocals, the complex and beautiful "The Name Of the Game", the dark and theatrical "I'm a Marionette" covered by Ghost, heavy disco "Summer Night City" covered by Therion (who made it sound like a funeral dirge!!), and there are tons of metals covers for ABBA's music. Benny and Bjorn's incredible writing and production were coupled with two incredible women who stylized precise vocals to fit each song because of their love for music! Agnetha and Frida could sing a hoagie sandwich menu and it would go gold! And that intonation... :D They did reggae, rock, folk, ballads, pop, dance, and gave each hit their own Swedish twist. Seriously, masters.

@@hifijohn Thanks for the reply. You are correct, SOS is not an acronym, by definition, bc, unlike "ABBA", we do not pronounce it as a word, but instead pronounce each individual letter. I believe "abbreviation" is the umbrella term given to all shortenings of words or phrases. Under that abbreviation umbrella, words like "ABBA" are technically called "acronyms", but, words like "SOS" are technically called "initialisms". I learned something new today!

When ABBA was inducted in the RRHOF, Benny Andersson made a speech saying that when he was growing up in Sweden in the 50s, there was no blues or R&B on Swedish radio. There was a small smattering of early rock & roll and a lot of European Schlager and Swedish folk music, both of which are strong influences in ABBA's music. Benny noted that a lot of Swedish folk music is quite melancholy, and so he regards it as kind of a Swedish equivalent to blues - he even referred to The Winner Takes It All, which is definitely one of ABBA's sadder songs, as "Swedish blues". You can hear a bit of that in SOS as well.

I think you discovering and liking ABBA just shows your tastes have broadened. Genres can be limiting, but enjoying great music, whatever the genre just demonstrates a willingness to be surprised and discover awesome songs. So glad you enjoyed this, SOS is a banger. I'd suggest Waterloo, Voulez-vous, or for something more introspective but brilliant, The Winner Takes It All. And as others have said ABBA is the initials of the four members of the band.

There is rock, soft rock, power rock balads, and so on. ABBA transcends genres, soft rock, power balads, euro folk music, but whatever the genre, their music is pure joy. It spawned a Broadway play, which I saw in person, and at least two films based solely on their song catalog. They are without a doubt, literally one of the most popular groups, world-wide, of all time. ABBA rules. So does Sweden.❤ As their song says, thank you for the music!

Growing up with this stuff first time round, it was very easy to take ABBA for granted and familiarity breeds contempt.... especially in the era of punk, disco, prog and all the rest of the different genres that were swirling around in the 70s... its only later, decades later when you listen back to these classics and listen to them with an experienced critical ear, can you begin to understand how much effort and thought and craft went into these songs, particularly the vocal harmonies and the production values... World class.

To me, it often seemed as though ABBA -- at least here in the USA -- was kind of in that weird zone of "band that everyone secretly likes, but won't *admit* to liking because it's not 'cool' to like them for some reason." So they got no respect -- but they sure sold an awful lot of records for a band no one would admit that they listened to... 😛

They write hooks and melodies like no other, the Swedish melancholy in so much of their stuff singles them out from the pack, and the vocals by Agnetha and Frida are always utterly stellar. You should check out a TV performance of SOS and that will make you understand WHY they were such a powerful group of their time. The women are incredibly charismatic performers.

ABBA was the Adele of their day. HUGELY popular and talented but rockers would never admit liking them even though they secretly did. It reminds me of a time when I was in a Home Depot and Adele’s “Rolling in the Deep” song came on over the in store speakers. I was in an aisle next to a biker guy in a Slayer t-shirt. We both started tapping our toes to the beat and then looked at each other and sang aloud to the chorus. It was quite the impromptu duet:Me in a suit and short hair and him with long hair and tattoos and a bikers leather vest and jeans. Good music unites us all regardless of the genre. I’m a classic rock guy but know pretty much every ABBA song by heart.

@@MackAxyzz No. It was the first one. I very clearly remember as the late night Saturday TV shows were my domain. I don't know where you came up with fifth episode, but that is incorrect.

Love that you guys are lovin' ABBA! Have you checked out "Waterloo"? It's the the song that made them famous when it won the 1974 Eurovision song contest... real good banger! Cheers!

57 yr old, ex-grade/middle school 70's hard rock brat here.....who used to be part of the "Disco Sucks!" crowd way back when. I can tell you, the majority of us from that era have come to peace with liking disco. It's pretty cool now! 🤣

No need to feel guilty gents! This is one of the greatest pop songs ever written! John Lennon and Pete Townshend also said so! One of my favorite quotes…..”there are people who like ABBA, and there are people who can’t admit they like ABBA.”

Don't worry. Welcome to the world of Abba fans!! Haha They have some genius songs, and they have some schlocky songs. They have some cool shit, and they have some cheesy shit. I love them anyway! PS: That isn't fuzz guitar, that's a synth. 😊

I have two guilty pleasures from ABBA, I Do I Do I Do and Chiquitita, especially the Spanish version, the lyrics are more impactful than in English.

The music of my teenage years in the mid to late 70s. I love them. Its funny - I don't know of anyone who didn't like them back them. Kids who listen to heavy metal or punk liked ABBA. One of my favorites is "Knowing Me, Knowing You".

ABBA made catchy songs, masterfully produced. Years ago, I remember hearing that they would multi-track the ladies' tight harmonies. That explained the ringing fullness of their sound. Total ear candy.
