I often think the same thing. A while back I watched a load of videos of youngsters reacting to Bohemian Rhapsody and was gobsmacked that they had never heard the song or heard of Queen. It's the same with Abba. These four people stood at the pinnacle of pop music for years, but the youngsters don't know them. Baffling.
@patriciamillin1977
@patriciamillin1977 Год назад
Tbh, though, where would they hear them? The radio stations play the latest hits, and when youngsters listen to streaming services, they would obviously only have songs they know in their playlists. I doubt they tune in to oldies channels. For some of them, the parents, or possibly even grandparents might have some old records in their collection, but the kids probably wouldn’t play them. It’s pretty much the same for older people like myself. I know some “newer” music, even some songs I like, but ask me what’s currently in the charts, I wouldn’t know, because *my* playlists and the radio stations *I* listen to are mostly full of older songs.

@@patriciamillin1977 Good point about the radio stations etc. Though I can remember back in the 70s one of the joys of music was exploring and trying something unknown.

@@snowysnowyriver I agree, we explored a lot more back in those days, but again, it was mostly music from our generation. I also grew up listening to my parents’ records, and we had a music teacher at school who allowed us to bring in our own records and then discuss them rather than always just having to listen to his classical records (some of which I did love, my favourite being Gustav Holtz’ Planet Suite). But kids today have their phones or other devices that they listen to music on mainly with headphones, so they don’t generally share that listening experience. I assume they might talk about songs they like, but current music.

As far i know you are not exactly right about it. While it can be , that it was during their divorce, the song came to him not because of that. I heard from Björn himself: that he was on a party... and he was also a bit drunk late night, and walked home alone on the streets, and within that 30 minutes of walking, this melody came into his head, and back at home he wrote it down (not the notes himself, because none of the Abba-members could read notes). But the chords etc he wrote down. The lyrics came much much later. And the first lyrics were even happy, as far i know. It was only later that they changed it to sad lyrics. There is also a fresh interview with Benny and Björn, were both say that the melody comes always first...and later on, they fill it with lyrics. They also say: the lyrics aren't so important. Thats why Abba got mostly critized back in the days for meaningless lyrics (like ''honey honey''... or ''ring ring'' ... or ''money money money'' (...''always funny...in a richmans world'' ) ) ... It was for that critics that they began to make more meaningful lyrics to the songs (like ''the winner takes it all'' ) ... But still: the song ''the winner takes it all'' was with happy lyrics first... and later on with sad lyrics - turned out, the sad lyrics fit much better to the song. In general Abba had mostly happy , or even goofy songs (like ''when i kissed the teacher'' ) . I think they just want to make songs which lifts the mood of people... and are good to dance to it... thats also a reason why the ''lyrics'' didnt have to be deep. Anyway .. because of the sadness of the lyrics most people think, that it was because of the divorce. Björn often said in interviews that it was not the case. Because he already broke up with Agnetha 2 years earlier (so the relationship was at an end already). Also it was much more hurtful to Agnetha, than to Björn.. Björn was in 1980 already happy with another women (who he married 1981). So i hope you see: the song has nothing to do with 'Björns sad feelings'' ... In fact Björn and Agnetha literally hated eachother between 1978-1981 ... so that they even argued a lot in the music studio - they literally yelled to eachother in those times in the music studio etc.. Hope you now can better see, how this song didnt had anything to do with ''Agnetha finding another guy'' ... she was even pregnant end of 1977 (her son was born right in december 1977 ... she had no reasons to cheat on Björn, or divorce him.. they were a family in 1978 ) ... So really : the song wasnt written because of sad feelings of Björn. Björn in fact was very happy in love with his new girlfriend in 1980 - when he wrote this ''sad song'' ... Yes, the lyrics came from Björn, and yes, he said, he was inspired from his divorce for the lyrics - but thats it - he said often clearly : the song has nothing to do with his situation with Agnetha, back than.

@@PygmalionFaciebat sorry, you have it mixed up. It was about the divorce, and it took a whiskey to write it down. You can still be sad about a divorce and still get into a new relationship. And yes, you can still divorce without hate each other. Esp when you have children together. At least in Sweden at that time. Not say there was divorces that the couple hate each other, but not all was or is that.

Well, be it fiction or real, ABBA understood showbusiness and put in enormous efforts to sell their products (pop songs) The more the theme of a song resonates with the experiences of the listening audience, the better the song does on the top selling music charts. Commercial music is akin to acting, actors don't need to have had a first hand personal experiences of the characters in the scripts that they interpret. The Winner Takes it All, most people don't understand is about being jealous of the new woman who has replaced her (the narrator ) in her matrimonial home. The new woman who is now in her ex life is the winner and the singer or the narrator is the loser.

I was more blown off my feet by Kate Bush and other extraordinary personalities.

Yes, I remember the fanbooks back in the day where friends filled in information on the various pages. The other girls all seemed to like Agnetha the most, so I decided I would go for Frida. Always in favour of the underdog. But then Agnetha turned out to be a quite selfless person. After all, she loved recording, but did not enjoy the overseas concerts and the attention. She was a blonde woman with blue eyes, but not a narcissist. And in Sweden, she hadn't caused much of a stir with her appearance, because her country is full of blondes with blue eyes anyway.

And i am not the only Person who said ABBA is known For their simple akkords and compositions. Pop music should be simple For people to sing it in the concerts . You try to Make the Word simple Bad. I Love simple things because they are not fake and not forced. And i think you clearly Dont Know much about compositions . I said nothing wrong Bad or disrespectful. It was a fact

@@feridedogan7653 I read your first comment and now the second and I see that you have not read mine I don't criticize that a melody is simple, and I repeated it at the end, when I said that the song can be simple or with rhythm changes, and still be great. ej Bee Gees have their first big hit with "Massachusetts", which has a simple, linear melody with no variations and it's a wonderful song It is in my Top 5 of them and coming back to this The winner takes it all has a simple melody and it's also in my ABBA Top5. along with songs with more complex melodies such as The name of the game simplicity and complexity, done well, are admirable You are right: I don't know about music or melodies or compositions, I speak because of what it generates in my soul and heart when listening to them surely you know more about music than me Cheers

A part of what I think makes ABBA so special was that they wrote about the truth, often not so pleasant truth about relationships. They were two married couples before they became world famous, and in all that success their relationships broke down and they divorced. They wrote and sung about that reality - and it is why their music and lyrics are as relevant to today as ever, and why they touched people all around the world. Supergroup indeed.

This is a beautiful reaction to ABBA's masterpiece, thank you very much for that. Songfacts: ABBA member Bjorn Ulvaeus wrote this after separating from wife and fellow band member, Agnetha Fältskog. It's about a divorce where one person doesn't want to separate and clings desperately to the marriage. It put Agnetha in the strange spot of being asked to sing a breakup song written by her ex-husband. Ulvaeus didn't intend it this way. He explained: "I sang a demo of it myself which a lot of people liked and said, you have to sing that. But I saw the sensible thing of course, it had to go to Agnetha. I remember coming to the studio with it and everyone said, Oh this is great, wonderful It was strange hearing her singing it. It was more like an actress doing something when she sang it, but deeply moving. Afterwards there were a few tears as well." Bjorn has said that while he usually didn't use drugs or alcohol while writing, he had a bottle of brandy next to him while writing the lyrics for this song. It was very personal to him. He told The London Times March 26, 2010: "Usually it's not a good idea to write when you're drunk, but it all came out on that one. By the time I wrote 'The gods may throw their dice' the bottle was empty." Ulvaeus claimed that 90% of this song is fiction, which is why he didn't feel too bad about having his ex-wife sing it. Said Ulvaeus: "I had this image of a man walking through an empty house with all the furniture removed for the last time as the symbol of divorce and just describing what I see." The cover of their album Super Trouper was set in a circus. "Super Trouper" is the name given to a spotlight used to illuminate the stars while on stage. The original recordings of the album did not include the songs "Gimme, Gimme, Gimme" and "Put On Your White Sombrero." These were added to the song list at a later album release on DVD format. >> Like Fleetwood Mac's "Go Your Own Way," this evokes some very Behind The Music moments as the male band member wrote deeply personal lyrics about a female bandmate. At least Stevie Nicks didn't have to sing lead on Lindsey Buckingham's lyrics like Agnetha did with Bjorn's. For many people this song with its heartbroken lyrics, swelling crescendos and sudden lulls is the definitive Abba single. Benny Andersson explained to The Sunday Times June 21, 2009 how the catch in the throat music came to be written: "It's the simplest song," he said. "It has two phrases - that's it. And they just go round and round. Now it also has, around those two phrases, this counterpoint thing going on" - Andersson then played the descending theme that opens the song, runs beneath the chorus and, modulated, responds to the verse's vocal melody - "and without a doubt, without that, it would not have been a song. Music is not only melody; music is everything you hear, everything you put together. But without the core of a strong and preferably original melody, it doesn't matter what you dress it with, it has nothing to lean on." Andersson went on to say that for a long time, there were only the two phrases, the latter (the chorus) with each line following immediately after the one before. "And then one day," he went on to say as he played the song again, "we were out in the country, and I suddenly played the chorus like this, pausing each time for the phrase to gather itself, and all of a sudden it was a song. Despite the song's portrayal of the breakdown of her marriage, Faltskog calls this "her biggest favorite" from ABBA's back catalogue. "It's a shame we never got to play it live," she told the BBC. Faltskog told The Mail on Sunday in May 2013 this is her favorite ABBA song: "Björn wrote it about us after the breakdown of our marriage. The fact that he wrote it exactly when we divorced is touching really," she explained. "It was fantastic to do that song because I could put in such feeling. I didn't mind sharing it with the public. It didn't feel wrong. There is so much in that song. It was a mixture of what I felt and what Björn felt, but also what Benny and Frida went through." Meryl Streep recorded this song in just one take for the ABBA-themed jukebox musical movie, Mamma Mia! Ulvaeus told The Telegraph: "Meryl Streep is a goddess. And at first we couldn't believe that she wanted to do it. I was completely taken by surprise when I saw her performance in the movie. To hear her delivering the songs with all the emotion we put in the lyrics is more than we could have dreamed of." The Winner Takes It All is also the title to a 1999 documentary about the band. Australian pop singers Kylie Minogue and Dannii Minogue record this with the BBC orchestra in 2008 for the UK comedy series Beautiful People. Matthew Morrison and Jane Lynch performed this on the series finale of Glee in 2015. Ulvaeus and Andersson started writing "The Winner Takes It All" in the summer of 1979 in a cottage Ulvaeus owned on the island of Viggsö outside of Stockholm. They ditched their first attempt, as it was too stiff, and worked on other songs. Four days later, they returned to "The Winner Takes It All." "All of a sudden, two things stuck together, Ulvaeus recalled to Music Business Worldwide. "The first bit was something that was written before and then 'da da da da da da' was something else. By putting these two together, we had a whole song and we were so deliriously happy with it all night long." Ulvaeus recorded a demo using nonsense French words and took the recording home to write the lyrics. "I'm much faster now, but it used to take me a while and this one came flowing in just one evening across a couple of hours," he said. "I used to write down the lyrics by hand very neatly on sheets of paper and then I'd make copies when I got to the studio in the morning. So I remember this morning distinctly when we gathered in the control room and Michael B Tretow, who was our sound engineer, played the backing track, which we had recorded already. We gathered and I gave everyone a sheet of the lyrics, Agnetha sang and it was magic."

Hi :) As i am from Sweden i grow up with ABBA songs:) The song is some from their breakup Agnetha and Björn wich did indeed wrote the song. I can also say that this is actually Agnetas own favorit of all their songs:) Agneta and Björn has a dauther together and are good friends but didnt divorce because of cheating, Agnetha was a very shy women and she had it hard 2 be on tour so much of them stopp making tours was when Benny and Anne-Frida and Benny also got a divorce to much 4 them all, Frida did actually end up and married a real prince actually sadly he died. She also did a solo song wich is called there is something goving on wich i liked a lot a heavy pop with much base. Agnetha has done solo songs 2 but it took a longer time 4 her . There was a man a fan that broke into her home wiich made her more withdrawn 4 a long time. Björn did marry a women named Lena i think and Benny a woman named Mona and they had a son Peter wich also became a artist, Today Benny has a band called BAO Benny Anderssons orkester as its written in Swedish. Another very emotionel song that they do wich i love is named Slipping trou my fingers check that out and one that is a rock pop song i think is a song that hasnt been getting the full attention as it should thats the song Why did it have to be me:) You have a cold chest of songs and u will never forget them. ABBA is Sweden as much as Volvo and Ikea only Roxette has been as high up as ABBA and people loved them because they were and are extremly humble people very simple and easy going. And Björn and Benny has done musicals thats been played in London many years called Chess and others to. They are extremly good musicians and Agnetha and Anne-Frid their voices was a great match:) Just a little info. Hope u are doing well i am from a city outside of Gothenburg called Kungsbacka or in English Kingshill:) take care hugs and Gby Rika.

The phrase: " But tell me does she kiss like i used to kiss you " is the most powerful that has ever been written in a song! Goose bumps. I really like Agnetha at the end when she says: "But you see": there you can see that she has the strength to get up and go on and she made it!
