Gimme! Gimme! Gimme! (ABBA Cover) - Colm R. McGuinness 

Name your Eurovision band........ GO!

I don't know what I expected, but I walked away completely satisfied. 10/10 brother bear 😂

I was just vibing and was NOT ready for that switchup at all, absolutely amazing as always.

I am speechless. What are the odds? Two days ago, I told my friend I couldn't wait for the next Colm video. And since she's a big ABBA fan, she suggested you should cover an ABBA song. And I said to her: I would love to hear Gimme!Gimme!Gimme! And here it is! ❤

I'm getting married next week, and my fiancé and I both love folk and ABBA. Your timing is uncanny, this is perfect ❤

This man refuses to limit himself to merely one genre and I love it.

I actually said out loud, “You didn’t,” with a stupid grin on my face when the style switched. Brilliant and an absolute banger as always!

Holy crap. I was surprised to see you cover this song, and then the cover itself was even more surprising. Awesome work!

I doubt anyone had ABBA on their Colm Cover Bingo Cards

I am SHOCK you made a cover of this 😂 But as a swede i am honored. You did AMAZING!! ❤

Damn, this was a cover of a GRAND song... we need a cover of Bohemian Rhapsody next.

You managed to make a cover of a song so far removed from what people expected and make it excellent. I'm now starting to realize why "Now, Colly" exists. Ride on!

Lyrics for anyone who wants them: Half-past twelve And I'm watching the late show in my flat all alone How I hate to spend the evening on my own Autumn winds Blowing outside the window as I look around the room And it makes me so depressed to see the gloom There's not a soul out there No one to hear my prayer Gimme, gimme, gimme a man after midnight Won't somebody help me chase the shadows away? Gimme, gimme, gimme a man after midnight Take me through the darkness to the break of the day Movie stars Find the end of the rainbow with a fortune to win It's so different from the world I'm living in Tired of TV I open the window and I gaze into the night But there's nothing there to see, no one in sight There's not a soul out there No one to hear my prayer Gimme, gimme, gimme a man after midnight Won't somebody help me chase the shadows away? Gimme, gimme, gimme a man after midnight Take me through the darkness to the break of the day Gimme, gimme, gimme a man after midnight Gimme, gimme, gimme a man after midnight There's not a soul out there No one to hear my prayer Gimme, gimme, gimme a man after midnight Won't somebody help me chase the shadows away? Gimme, gimme, gimme a man after midnight Take me through the darkness to the break of the day Gimme, gimme, gimme a man after midnight Won't somebody help me chase the shadows away? Gimme, gimme, gimme a man after midnight Take me through the darkness to the break of the day

Colm can cover literally anything and it's always perfect.

Goodness, how does this fit together so perfectly? Musical wizardry at its finest. Probably one of my favorite ABBA songs, this was too perfect!

Now I only need this man's cover of "Never gonna give you up"

When I say I came *running...* Fantastic work, as always! The switch into the metal style of singing was the cherry on top! 😘👌

A rock/metal cover of ABBA?!?!? Yes, please! ❤❤❤ Wonderful surprise and work me Cap'n! More please.

Holy crap, this song was stuck in my head just yesterday and now I wake up to find you made an amazing cover of it. You knocked it out of the park, my man.

- "No one expected this, but there could be no other." This quote fits this video perfectly. As always, a lovely cover in your legendary and lovely style, thank you so much!

I came for the medieval theme, I stayed for the metal theme

I can't believe you actually turned this into a rock song! Your music is so on point man, incredible talent being able to play what you can play and your vocal range is really impressive! I've had most of your stuff on repeat for weeks, love the huge collab you did with Bobby Bass for Misty mountains as well! Your rendition of the chemical workers song is part of my morning routine. Very grateful for people like you in the world, long live the bard!

Was not expecting this cover from you, and certainly not this way... And that's why i loved it so much i had to comment (which i never usually do), brilliantly done sir !!! 👏👏👏

Dude, this is brilliant!! 😂 Great idea for a fresh and unique cover! Love it. It totally suits your style, too! Both the celtic-ifying and the metal-ifying of it.

I didn't know I needed this type of cover until I heard it!

Epic! One of my favourite Abba songs, this cover is right up there with the original!

The song bangs like never before, can't stop dancin' 💃💃💃

Those screams were unbelievably clean, now I wanna hear you cover some metal

it is a MASTERPIECE. and I accept no objection. celtic metal cover of my favorite ABBA song. just thanks Colm, I know what's going to be on repeat next month. but seriously, Colm - I never get tired of being amazed by your creativity and ability to make each song your own, while still respecting the original. I send rays of warmth and sincere loads of inspiration! update: i guess i have nearly 1-2k my views of this video on repeat, and i'm not even joking.

Wonderfully executed once again. You seep talent, good sir, and I applaud you.

I really like how it goes from a folksy sound at the beginning to metal later on. That's so cool!

Ah!!! My goodness, I never expected Colm to cover my favorite ABBA song, such a wonderful surprise. And how fun this cover is! Awesome choice!!

This is so awesome! Edit: I can't stop listening.

A new Colm release = a good day

Definitely one of those "Are you not entertained?!" moments. Yes, Colm. We most certainly are.

Oh my god everything this man does is amazing! So much talent and an incredible range of vocals. I'm blown away every time. True talent my guy.

This took an unexpectedly badass turn, and I love it! Great work!

oh my god... i did not expect this to go metal when i started listening to it. awesome!

"How many genres you do?" "Yes"

Incredible! Love the interpretation and the editing is FIRE!!!

Gods bless my YT recommendations for offering these 3 mins of perfection a minute after release. Currently drying my hair without a hair dryer during the rock part of it 🤘🤘🤘

Started off quiet, then went HARD! That's what I like to see when covering certain kinds of songs, and this is beyond what I expected.

Мистер МакГиннесс как всегда прекрасен. Сколько труда, сколько талантов, человек-симфония. Браво 👏🏻

So glad Colm and Jonathan Young are getting along. :)))

A surprise, to be sure, but a welcome one! You knocked it out of the park, as aways 👌

As a fan of your voice and of ABBA, I was sceptic what to expect from this cover, but, well done Sir, well done :D

I didn't know what I should expect with this one. Couldn't even think how you might be able to cover this with your style. Oh my goodness. This was fantastic!!! Taking your pub style and rock, this was perfect. Even before you switched to rock I was greatly enjoying. I will be adding this to my playlist immediately.

This guy has an impressive vocal range. You can tell he is naturally a bass, but well trained for high tenor stuff.

Absolutely Brilliant

Not what I expected. Much better! Fantastic

Nothing says Disco like a sweater and a violin! Excellent work, Captain.

Not the cover we expected but the cover we needed

This went from "gimme a man" to "gimme a daddy" 🤘

Dude! That was awesome!!! 😈

I'm a simply man. I found a channel that has irish shanty traditional music, with Disney songs, ABBA and metal, I subscribe.

I was not expecting the transition half way through 🤯 So freaking good.

Another banger of a cover goddamn! Good job mate.

Ton chant crié metal est vraiment extraordinaire !

Oh, holy love, it is one of my favourites from ABBA ❤

YOUR VOICE 😭😭😭😭 THE RANGE, THE STYLE CHANGE. IM CRYING AAJENFKSK

I knew it! You looked too damn innocent in the 1st bit 😂 then the metal drops 😊 freaking love this

Gimme gimme gimme more McGuinness covers

No way I just Learned about this song and now Colm is doing a rendition of it!!

Well that escalated quickly!! 🤣 Not sure what I was expecting but it wasn't that high start or that roaring latter part. Love it anyway - nice one! 👍😊

Didn't see this coming, then the metal transition slapped me in the face leaving a big smile :D

Oh. My. GOD. I. My jaw literally dropped at that switch and stayed dropped the whole song. I... you... how... Incredible.

This is a change up from Colm’s usual covers, and from ABBA’s usual style- but I love it!

Hoooly smokes! That blew me out of my shoes! WOW!!!

When it dropped ... dayum.

I ABSOLUTELY LOVE THIS

Oh look- another Colm banger: this is the golden era lads

Love the little change during the middle

So the song starts out nice and easy, and I was thinking, this is a really nice change from your usual, darker, heavier stuff. And you start screaming, and I'm like, ohmygod, YES!!!! I had no idea you could scream like that!! But it made me so happy, and it just made the cover of this song a hundred times more epic!!! I would absolutely LOVE to see you cover some heavy metal songs!!! Rock on!!

I know EXACTLY the friend to send this too. Epic Cover, Colm!

I wasn’t really a big fan of ABBA og version. This really surpassed every expectation! 10/10 😎

Was not expecting that at all! That's fucking awesome.

This is something I never knew I needed. But by the gods, I never want to go back

I still would love to see your rendition of Horse Soldier, Horse Soldier Think it would be amazing

I'm enjoying Colm's "I do what I want" arc

I did not expect that drop HOOOOOLYYYY

I vibe hard to this

This is so sick!

Ooooo, this is a wonderful birthday present🥰🥰🥰

I don't know if I've missed the songs you've sung with these metal vocals or it's a new thing. Either way, gat damn, I want more.

Oo i love this

Absolute Jam! 10/10🤘🤘

You did it again 👏 love your unique take on the songs you do
