First Time Hearing Ace Of Base - The Sign 

All That She Wants is darker. The Sign is more straight forwad radio pop for sure. Both were massive. All That She Wants peaked at #2 in The Us for many weeks while peaking at #1 for 3 weeks in the Uk and at #1 in Germany for 8 weeks becoming the best selling song if 1993 there. The Sign peaked at #1 in the US for 6 weeks becoming the biggest song if 1994 while the same titled album also became the biggest selling album of 1994. The Sign, the song also peaked at #1 in Germany, Australiq and many other places and #2 in the Uk. Their album sold 25 million. They were unstoppable at the time. 90s legends. The blond girl has a very cool, distinctive voice. She sang most of their debut albums while her sister became more of a lead singer on their third album.

Don't Turn Around, Wheel Of Fortune, Living In Danger and Happy Nation were big hits from the same era. Beautiful Life and Lucky Love from their 1995 follow up album. I think Dont Turn Around and Wheel Of Fortune definitely need reactions.

Could you imagine? how it was aired and spread all over the world in 1994 wtihtout any internet youtube and apps that now we know help a song to get famous, So it was an infectious tune played on Radio all day long, Good days back in the 90's

Although released in 1994 and arguably the #1 song of that year, its popularity has increased in recent years. I think it's partly due to content creators.

React to "Happy Nation" by Ace Of Base. Also you should start doing the discography of dolly dots and start with the song "P.S." and then "Leila (The Queen Of Sheiba).

Produced by Max Martin (Britney Spears, Backstreet Boys, N Sync and so on..) He literally produced 80% of modern pop hits.

The fascinating mystery of Ace of Base is of the blond sister Linn, who was lead vocalist on All That She Wants and the earlier songs, suddenly steps back from and almost disappears from view in later videos with no explanation. Recommendations for other reactions are Beautiful Life, Life is a Flower and Living in Danger.

Thank you for another great reaction!❤ Three siblings and their best friend from the West Coast of Sweden (Gothenburg). They have catchy songs that went all over the world and that's the only similarity with ABBA who are well rounded musicians. What Ace of Base represents is the simplicity of making music, music that everyone can make it in their room at their parent's home :) Their music sounds home made on a summer school break in every sense of the word but that's also the charm with it:) Suggestion of another song to react to could be "It's a beautiful life" . Another Swedish band that was more interesting creativity wise, different and also enjoyed big international success with many hits was Army of lovers, have a listen to their debut hit "Obsession"🇸🇪❤😉 ps. The Swedish band Alcazar is another constellation that might look a little ABBA:ish at first glance. Their hits "Crying at the discoteque", "Physical", "Tis is the world we live in" and "Start the fire" will make you smile and dance :) Lot's of love from Sweden to you and all your subscribers!❤🇸🇪

This album was huge in the 90's. For me, ABBA will always be in a league of their own, but similarities for Ace of Base do stand (in addition to them being from Sweden). Like Marisa states in the reaction, but sisters have great voices. Linn's is so clear and pitch perfect and Jenny's has a unique aspect to her voice, a little deeper/darker. And they can harmonize well together, like Agnetha and Frida did. The men here never sing a full on lead, but do backing vocals and parts of some songs. Mostly they are the writes and musical arrangers like Benny and Bjorn. B & B are more sophisticated with their musical arrangements, but Ulf and Jonas did some cool synth experimentations with mixing instrumentation and musical styles.

Two boys, two girls, and both from Sweden. That's why they're always being compared to ABBA. Fun fact: the sign is the biggest song in the United States in the year 1994. This song is produced by denniz pop, the mentor of Max Martin, the uber producer of today's modern hits who wrote and produce songs for britney spears, nsync, BsB, Taylor swift, Kelly Clarkson, katy perry, adele and many more.

Oh the 90s. I learned so much English with Ace of Base and Roxette.

I always liked Linn's contralto voice more. Although Jenny's mezzo-soprano is also great. But my two favorite songs from Ace of Base are Jenny's solos. Second album. Experience Pearls and Ravine.

Thanks for this react... I was 14Yo and addicted to this iconic track. Was pretty huge in the 90's.

This was the song of the year en 1994 by billboard worldwide

I remember this band from the 90s, they were really popular from what i can remember. I prefer this song to all she wants as well, great reaction guys 👍

By far my favorite pop song of the 90’s. Such a unique sound! This was also the beginning for producer Denniz Pop and Max Martin who went on to produce Britney Spears, Backstreet Boys, and N’Sync. Max still writes and produces most of the chart toppers today and is about to break the world record for having the most number one songs under his belt.

Happy Nation was a huge hit in 1994 as well. It's from the same album that has All That She Wants and The Sign but it has a different vibe. It's more like new age-euro-reggae kind of thing. The song sounds so timeless even today. I think Happy nation was not a single in USA I don't know why.

This Song Was Sampled in 98 For A Texaco Gasoline Commercial

"Happy Nation" and "Don't Turn Around"

It's a song for the all times!

Love dude feels. Literally me when it came out ^_^. Have to say got over it from over played..but seeing him ..feeling it for the *first* time I love it

This was my first album ever and this song marked my childhood. I'm glad you liked it.😉

The Sign" topped the Billboard Hot 100 for six non-consecutive weeks in the United States, which allowed Ace of Base to become the first Swedish group to simultaneously have a number one song and album on the Hot 100 and Billboard 200 respectively.

Sweden's answer to Abba. Love Ace of Base! Nice taste !👍

Another band form Sweden 🇸🇪 that top the charts .

Great Value ABBA, but I bought and loved their first 3 CDs!

This probably my 2nd favourite of them but, ultimately can't wait for you two to get to Always Have always will that is my top fave of them of all time. But yeah Sweden from Abba and then Ace of Base, A Teens all Abba type in sound from great melodies being the Abba type signature thing but obviously still their own sound input as well, have truly given some great music over so many decades to the world.

Thanks, Marissa! Thanks, Tyler! 👋🏼 #TylerCreatesContent #TheSign #AceOfBase

The best Ace of Bace song ❤❤❤❤ To sad they dont do music anymore

They have sooo many good songs: Wheel of fortune, Don`t turn around, Beautiful life, Happy nation, Living in danger, Cruel summer, ..

Great to see people your age reacting to songs from the 90s try listening to waiting for magic it was not a single in the US but was in England and Europe it's a great song and it's a new take on Snow White story

They were good back in the day, but for me, Roxette had the ABBA chops in late 80s early 90s. Their hooks are impeccable.

Like ABBA, Ace og Base is also Swedish! :). Very goog band!

❤❤❤❤ Aceofbase

I recommend listening to „Beautiful Life“, „Life is a Flower“ (most played song on European radio in 1998), „Always have, Always will“ (experimental Motown throwback) and „Everytime it Rains“ (for something completely different but beautiful).

Ace of Basic

Beautiful life videos pretty cool

Ace of Base pretty much styled themselves after ABBA from their name to the way they all sing on the songs with everyone getting some lines, most groups there's the lead and some back up vocals and like ABBA they're actually family well the two girls and one dude are siblings and AOB and ABBA are both Swedish

I wonder if you come to their more poppy songs from 1998 on when the brunette takes the lead due to the blonde's mental issues. My favourite song from that period is "The Flower" ❤️

Now try there song It´s A Beautiful Life. A real dance song!!!

React Life is a flower from 1998!

U probably heard this before from the pitch perfect movie

Always have, Always Will is a great Motown sequel song, and Life Is A Flower is beautiful, though in the USA it had different lyrics and called Whenever You’re Near Me.

The girls, and the brown haired guy are all siblings. The blonde dude is not related to them. 😊

And suddenly it's Spring Break 1994.

I would love you to react to Arabesque - Lucifer's Lover from 1979, I Think you're going to love it 😄

ABBA Re Born

Deberían reaccionan también a Yaki Da "I saw you dancing".

Ace Of Base was never as Good after Lyn (The Blonde) left the Group the guys mostly Sang Backup)Back Ground Lyn has a unique Voice She also gave critical input as to how songs were put together

Okay but Beautiful Life was their best single though

I only say Denniz Pop. Goole that.

You have no idea how huge this was. lol NO IDEA....

Abba of the 90‘s with the note that they knew how to sound in the 90‘s a thing that ABBA was not able to.. Abba as much as i adore them were not able to shift into the 80‘s sound either not to mention the 90‘s but maybe if they would have been young in the 90‘s that’s what they might have sounded like. Different generation different approach different inspiration.. but some major ingredients are typical abba.

Please React to Thalia "Piel Morena"

Great band. Try .....Don´t Turn Around ....and .....Living In Danger

react to the ROXETTE catalogue

Poor man’s ABBA

The line, "Life is demanding, without understanding" is a ripoff of ABBA's "One of Us" Chorus.

dry pop reggae. I never understood why American radio would make hits of songs like this but never in a million years would they play real reggae by Bob Marley, Peter Tosh, Dennis Brown and similar artists.
