HIP HOP Fan REACTS To ABBA - Chiquitita ABBA REACTION VIDEO
"Chiquitita" proved to be one of ABBA's biggest hits. It was featured in a 1979 UNICEF charity event, the Music for UNICEF Concert, broadcast worldwide from the United Nations General Assembly. As a direct result of this event, ABBA donated half of all royalties from the song to UNICEF.

Their sound engineer Michael B Tretow is a big reason why their songs still hold up, sonically (sure, they lack the sub bass of modern music but still). He was a bit ahead of his time with the mixing and layering of sounds. Nice to see someone paying attention to the mixing of their stuff! Another little well kept ABBA "secret" is their sometimes very funky basslines. The bass player they used most often, Rutger Gunnarsson, was a damn genius on the bass. A lot of people don't pay attention to the intricacies of the ABBA basslines.

@MICKEYISLOWD Год назад

I studied music many yrs ago and I listen to everything as the track is played. ABBA left no stone unturned and their songs are beautifully composed and worked out. They wrote ''perfect'' songs meaning you cannot improve them. ''perfect'' songs are very rare but they do pop up from time to time in the mainstream music. The Beatles wrote perfect songs too that cannot be bettered. ABBA also had a magical gliss on their songs which gave them a character all of their own. ABBA are in the top for brilliance for composition which cannot be toppled. They are of the best out there.

This song is straight from the Swedish folk music tradition. You can hear it in umm-pah umm-pah in the chorus and also the extra background vocal lines which you picked up on would be found in folk singing rounds. I've been listening to this song for 40 years and I never tire of it. I like that you appreciate the detail in their songs which only increased with their maturity. Have a listen to 'I let the music speak' from right at the end of their time together. The layers of almost choral harmonies towards the end are breath taking.

"Chiquitita"! (all songs from this concert donated royalties to UNICEF) "Chiquitita" is an amazing ballad pop lyrics of hope, great melodies, fantastic harmonies, a beautiful song! "Chiquitita was a worldwide hit, specialy in Hyspan American countries You heard before "Dancing Queen" (with the two female in leads vocals) and "Chiquitita" now (with the blonde Agnetha in lead voice) And you are telling us that the next reactions will be Mamma Mia (the two girls in leeds vocals) S.O.S. & Gimme gimme gimme (both with the blonde Agnetha in lead voice) I suggest you for more reactions another songs with the brunette Anni Frid in the lead voice, to see the difference: Fernando Knowing me knowing you Super trouper (all these was #1 in UK) I hope for much ABBA videos Have a nice week!

hello, i'm so glad you were here again to continue with your reactions to ABBA songs several things to say about "Chiquitita" and its context "Chiquitita" is a beautiful song, it has hopeful lyrics, a melody that starts very soft with Agnetha's solo, then grows and explodes in a powerful chorus; Agnetha and Anni Frida's vocal harmonies are of excellence "Chiquitita" was composed especially for the Concert by UNICEF, it premiered that night and its royalties are eternal for UNICEF "Chiquitita" was ABBA's greatest success in Latin America, that prompted ABBA to record it in Spanish, and its success was so extraordinary that in the following years ABBA recorded an album with its best songs entirely in Spanish And some of the intimacy "Chiquitita" was recorded in December 1978, before Christmas; days later the blonde singer Agnetha (28) and the guitarist Björn (33) was separated with two youngest childs (but they continue together in the group four years more, until their last recording in 1982) This promotional video was in February 1979 in Swizterland, their only promotional video that ABBA made without Sweden "Chiquitita" is in my Top 10 of all ABBA songs All another 10 greatest songs and worldwide hits that You can react: Waterloo Fernando Knowing me knowing you The name of the game Take a chance on me Summer night city I have a dream The winner takes it all Super trouper One of us I wish to see you soon in another reactions to ABBA songs GOD bless you and stay safe My best regards from Argentina

Abba are simply an amazing band that are too often overlooked because they are often associated with Disco, a musical style that some people are just "too cool" to like. Explore further, you will find that era filled with wonderful work that people prefer to ignore because it isn't cool to like them. I'm sure you know Donna Summer, and she is often relegated to just a disco queen, but her albums were also full of wonderful R&B stuff.

Thanks for reacting to this. This song, I would say, draws on traditions in European folk music. Very singable, harmonic, balanced and with a message. In the end you feel good and complete. It doesn't aim to be hip or cool. It aims to be timeless. I think it's aged well. On another note, I remember hearing about a computer program that was written to predict the greatest pop song of all time. Countless songs were fed into the algorithm and in the end the song it finally chose was one by ABBA . . . called "Waterloo". Give that one a spin if you have a moment. It's pretty catchy. (Sorry, I just see that you DID react to it. I'll go check it out now. Cheers!)

I really do appreciate your point of view on ABBA, please say it right its Ab as in your stomach muscles, and AH as in the noise of relief AbAh. Cheers mate, keep up the good work

These guys were masters of the studio. They wrote the book on "recording arts". They were also great composers. Back in the 70's and 80's people bought vinyl albums brought them home and listened to them on really good stereo systems not crappy cell phones. So all the nuances of the recording had to be perfect. And these guys played the studio like a instrument. Multitracking of vocals was also a big thing. Guitars were also multitracked. This gave everything a much bigger sound. ABBA is like a box of chocolates - you never know what you're gonna get!!

Chiquitita: Little one, young one, child, baby. I used to sing this to my daughter when she was upset, and still do sometimes even though she's now in her teens. It's such a loving song, written from the heart with the full intent of giving strength and guidance to your child.

ABBA gave all Royalties to UNICEF for this song. For ever.

Chiquitita means "Little Girl" in Spanish.

You're absolutely right about that background vocal...just adds another dimension to the song

I have to say I LOVE your reactions, that you love ABBA and appreciate music!! I found you bc I have been on ABBA kick since the 2 new songs. (Those 2 were played the most this wk lol) I have been a fan since my childhood and couldn't believe they came back after all this time. Absolute dream come true. I either wasn't old enough, or my dad probably couldn't afford (or even get tix) at Boston Garden when they played in either 79 or 80 I think. My neighbor went I was SO bummed. I am going to watch all your ABBA videos....thank you for loving them! Makes me so happy when I see brand new fans. 😍 I was heartbroken the day my father told me they broke up and he showed me the newspaper article 💔. This has been the happiest week of my life in a long time,. Finally... new, real, music is back!!!!! Can't wait for the rest of the album and your reactions!!

I remember watching this for the first time in 1979 as part of a concert to raise funds for UNICEF. They donated proceeds from the song to a UNICEF cause. I remember upon hearing it for the first time that I thought the song was going to be a big hit & it was. Enjoying your inciteful reactions.

I know this was 2 years ago, but some songs by ABBA that's kind of passed under the radar are "Does your mother know" and "The Visitors". The last one is when they were breaking up, and you can hear the daarkness seeping into the lyrics and sound. "Waterloo"... I shouldn't have to mention it. That's the song that won the Eurovision Song Contest and it is Fantastic!

I grew up on ABBA because of my parents. Two songs to add to your list are Summernight City and Take a Chance. Edit: Just saw you reacted to Take a Chance on Me.

Chiquitita is a refugee from South America to Sweden, but now she is Anita’s and Annefried’s best friend, and they are trying to help her. The piano outro is amazing.

@gohan2091 3 года назад

Abba - The Winner Takes It All as one of my favourites. You should definitely check it out and react

@annakoch9972 3 года назад

Many of ABBAs music videos are directed by Lasse Hallström, famous movies maker. The thing with the snowman.... I dont know what's that is but I have heard its _something_.

@johncurran6031 Год назад

Benny, on piano, wrote much of the music & Bjorn, the one on guitar, wrote lyrics. The two women did the primary singing and their voices worked so well together that the sound was fantastic. They had excellent studio musicians including a bass player named Rutger Gunnarson who died recently and very highly regarded for his skills on bass. There was a great studio engineer, Michael Tretow, and a sound man named Claes Gaiijerstam who both helped create the ABBA sound. They sold 385 million albums around the world. The combined net worth is more than $1 billion.

Bee Gees live on “Midnight special” singing “I Can’t See Nobody” is incredible.

@Pulsar77 3 года назад

They were very clever to incorporate other languages into their songs to appeal to international markets: Spanish (this song, Hasta Mañana, and even an entire album with Spanish versions of their songs), Italian (Mamma Mia), French (Voulez-Vous),...

When they initially came out they spoke no English , but they knew to have real success they would have to breakthrough the language barrier .

@jamesbachmann7376 3 года назад

The girls never wrote material for the group ABBA, but Agnetha (the blonde) had wrote several songs in Swedish for her solo career before ABBA was formed. The guys wrote all the material for the group, but tried to get Agnetha to compose some material for the group, but between motherhood and the demands of the group, she never seemed to get around to it.

@animalfriend6413 3 года назад

Wrong! Agnetha wrote "Disillusion" (Ring Ring album) and "I'm still alive" (Live at Wembley Arena album) which was integral part of their 1979 world tour.

@@animalfriend6413 You are right. I stand corrected.
