Here are performers like Frida, bringing joy and loveliness into the world while cynics and critics and just mean people sit on their couches and judge them harshly... it's ok: Frida looks and sounds beautiful here and is loved 50 years later by millions...success IS the best revenge😔❤️❤️❤️ thank you for the music Anni Frid...Lange lange leve karleken
Nicht unbedingt der Zeit voraus, aber sie war damals war damals schon fast „zu alt“ für einen normalen weiblichen Popstar, mit fast 40. Aber diese Mischung aus „innovativ/modern“ in dieser Produktion, gemischt mit „klassischeren“ Stilelementen hatte wohl nicht so gezündet, was ich mehr als jammerschade ist. Sie hätte eine ganz andere Karriere nach ABBA verdient gehabt. Diese Mischung aus schräger, aber gleichzeitig geschmackvoller Eleganz war wohl etwas zu viel für manche Leute damals. Den Misserfolg dieses wirklich tollen Albums verstehe ich bis jetzt nicht.
She was 38 when the 'Shine' album was recorded in early 1984. This performance was in September later that year. Her birthday is mid November so she is still 38 at this point. I much preferred her with her longer locks but agreed, she does look amazing and maybe not surprisingly, 'happier' than two years before.
I'm presently rediscovering this album. I find it even better than 'Something's going in', which was a huge succes for Frida. This wasn't, but it's really interesting, ahead of its time, loads of great melodies, and completely liberated singing from Frida. You can tell that she had so much more confindence during this recording process than with Phil Collins, and she sounds absolutely amazing. Her vocals in themselves make this album worth listening to.
Wow, that is amazing. That vocal performance. I really love the way she looks too. It's a shame Abba didn't proceed through this time because I think it would have been mind blowing but this video is pretty impressive anyway.
Frida should record a whole album of Kirsty maccoll songs still life,until the night,Mexican sofa and an Agnetha duet there's a guy works down the chipshop swears he's Elvis
She had beauty, presence, talent modesty and sincerity. Blonde Agnetha may have received much of the attention, but it was Anni-Frid who was the essential backbone of ABBA.
@@user-uf5lm6fk6x ANNI FRID, BENNY, BJORN, AGNETHA.....THAT SPELLS ABBA OKAY! ANNIFRIDA IS FIRST, THEN THE TWO BOYS, THEN AGNETHA...SHE BEING THE YOUNGEST OF THEM ALL.
She just seemed at the top of her game there! I own three copies of the cassette and one of the LP and treasure them all! Actually, I might have played two copies of the cassette to where they couldn't be played anymore...
Annifrid toda su vida trabajo ella era cantante de yazz y era conocida en Suecia despues vino abba cada uno tenia un porcentaje de ganancia y el resto lo invertian por eso que son socios en los negocios que invirtieron Annifrid despues de. abba grabo en solitario varios albumes y tuvo ganancias y muchas presentaciones ahora ella vive en Suiza todo su dinero lo tiene donde radica como es natural donde sacan que gracias a benny saco el dinero Annifrid trabajo duro y gano lo que le correspondia todos sabemos que las chicas eran y seran el alma del grupo con tanto talento mostraron ser las mejores años de sacrificio entrega hicieron un gran duo imconparables las que se llevaron todo de vandeja son las actuales que jamas en su vida se imaginaron tener tanto dinero
Yeah, I was going on 14 here. And her kids were 17 and 20 at the time this was made. So beautiful, it's hard to believe that she was just a little bit older here than I am now. I so remember those seersucker blazers with the industrial-strength shoulder pads. Thanks for stopping by!
A truly great album, and I still play it today. Digitally recorded in Paris in 1994 it was technically ahead of it's time, particularly the title track. A complete disaster for Frida though. Phil Collins refused to produce it so Steve Lillywhite was drafted in. It entered the UK album chart at number 67 where it stayed for one week and then disappeared without trace. Only one single was released in the UK - Shine - but like the album it wasn't promoted by the record company and was a commercial failure. A sad UK closure for Frida after so much success with ABBA. I guess a two year break after having a minor hit with I Know There's Something Going On in 1992 and the fact that ABBA's music had become unfashionable meant it was sadly never going to appeal to enough people to be a hit outside of Sweden and Norway.
@@ColinsCity He was simply busy with his exploding solo career. He was originally supposed to have done this album as well. Frida waited 2 years then made a decision to move ahead with Steve.
@@Leftatalbuquerque he had pulled away from the first album Something’s Going On even during promo. His duet with Frida Here We’ll Stay was re-recorded without him for the single release, with Frida singing both parts. Reading between the lines potentially because the album was a commercial flop and he didn’t want to be associated with it. Shine is a much more cohesive album, maybe because it wasn’t produced by Phil Collins.
Not forgetting Heart of the Country of course, the second single in the UK (also released on 12" single). I think Shine was overlooked by the public because they were put off by Collins' heavy handed production of Something's Going On. I love Shine. Very underrated.
It is really surprising when you see links like this.. and I've been playing this song for nigh on 30 plus years. It's like I used to listen to quantum jumps lone ranger, only to realise 5 months ago that it was rupert Hines who produced some Rush albums! Thanks for the info!
