ABBA on 300 Millones, Spanish language television programme, broadcast by RTVE on 18 June 1979. ABBA perform “Does Your Mother Know” featuring Björn singing lead vocals
Strangely enough, I first heard it on a commercial airline flight while it was still on the charts, late summer of 1979. The headphones they gave you on the flight for music listening had repeating music "programs" of 15 to 20 songs each, and this song was among them. I specifically remember this song and "Misunderstanding" by Genesis played in that system. I had more or less stopped listening to the radio at that time, being a little older and busier, where I had once listened to it a couple hours every day. If I hadn't been on that particular flight, I might have never heard this song.
SON OF A 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉, here goes a half hour of my life, cause just like Lay’s (Bet You Can't Eat Just One) no way listening to just 1 ABBA song & just be one and done! 🍻❤️🔥🤘🏼❤️🔥🍻
Ésto es en un programa español! Me quedaban muchos años por nacer pero me hubiera encantado haberlo visto en directo 😍 nací y ellos ya estaban retirados pero aún así... LOS AMO ❤️Jamás, por muchos millones que ganen ahora o muchos seguidores o lo que sea que tengan los "artistas" ahora jamás de los jamases volverá a nacer otro grupo y gente como ABBA. Únicos e irrepetible 😍❤️y lo divertida que es Anni-Frid... LA ADORO!! 🥰🥰 Belleza, sentido del humor y talento. PERFECTA ✨💕
I love the teenage hormones in this song. God bless adults that recognize and gaurd young impulse and dam to hell those who would prey on it. And bless the coming of age that are overwhelmed with the new awakening within. GREAT SONG!
Regrettably after this song came out, a small disturbance broke out at Comiskey Park in Chicago, known as Disco Demolition Night where you saw ABBA and disco records flying like frisbees, rocks and bottles thrown on the field, ABBA and disco records being detonated in center field in between a twi-night double header between the White Sox and the Tigers and a riot breaking out on the field where you saw the batting cage being torn down and destroyed, the field being ripped apart, multiple fights breaking out, Harry Carey and Bill Veeck imploring everyone to clear the field and breaking into the song "Take Me Out To The Ballgame" and a bonfire being lit in center field. It took 40 minutes before the Chicago Police Riot Squad (notorious for cracking skulls at the 1968 Democratic National Convention) got control of the situation. Unfortunately, because of what transpired on the field, the field was declared unplayable and the second game was awarded to the Detroit Tigers via forfeit. Six were injured, 39 were arrested and a lot of residents that lived in the area were livid at what transpired, because they had to clean out their property of beer cans, had a car on the curb and one resident had to chase two boys off his property that were urinating on it. Not a good night for music and baseball.
wow, jesus, thats pretty out there. had no clue about this; it almost sounded like something you just made up until I checked the wikipedia article for it. Absolutely crazy
@@AALONSO1962 Acá en Chile, esa emisión de 300 Millones también la vimos en directo, la recuerdo muy bien y con mucha nostalgia. Había un contrato entre el canal 7 TVN de Chile y RTVE, por lo que cada vez que se emitía el programa, la transmisión era simultanea a través del satélite. Saludos.
That video clip definitely doesn't look like ABBA in '79. It looks more like the group a few years earlier around mid '70s. They all look slightly younger. You'd be surprised how someone can age and look different in only a few years. Another reason is Agnetha had cut her hair shorter in '79.
But it is 1979, Does Your Mother Know was a single that year, and this was before the 1979 tour, so they still hadn't cut the hair short. If you see the official video of this song and Voulez-Vous, both from 1979, they carry the same look
