Tribal People React to ABBA For The First Time 

ABBA donated 50% of the royalties for Chiquitita to UNICEF (the United Nations International Children's Emergency Fund) from 1979 to 2014. In 2014 they decided that 100% of royalties for this song should go to UNICEF. As of September 2021, UNICEF had received $4.8 million from the royalties of this song to help little girls (Chiquititas) and boys all over the world.

I don't know their names, but these two men are absolutely great. The gentleman with the turban is so dignified and wise. The gentleman with the bejeweled cap is so kind-hearted and joyful. I salute them both.

This video has brought me to tears. I think the goodness in these two lovely men and their appreciation for a song and time of relative innocence has provoked my realisation of just how evil and dark the world has become in the last decade or so. I wish all children today could have the happy innocent childhood I was blessed to have and God bless ABBA for shining a light that will never dim.

I love these two gentlemen! To see them genuinely moved by this music is such a joy. Their hearts are so open and it proves that music transcends all cultures.

I do hope these gentlemen know how much respect and affection they have from so many of us from all around the world.

This is the power of ABBA. It knows no geographic boundaries and language barriers. That’s why their music has and will outlive us all.

These 2 men are absolutely precious, they are emanating love and full of integrity! Many blessings to both of them! 🙏😊❤️

How lovely. The beautiful harmonies of Anni and Agneta would melt any heart.

I live in Sweden and has grown up to ABBA music in my home. I danced to it, cried with it and fell asleep to it (had a taperecorder in my bed were a listen to music). This is so nice and heartfelt to see this gentlemen liking ABBA music and the meaning of the words. Love hearing their thoughts.// Love and light from Sweden 🙏🏼❤️🇸🇪

"The world is standing because of hope" Wise words. Blessings

What an honour and blessing it would be to have a chat with these two dignified, kind and wise gentlemen. What an example for humanity today. Blessings to all.

how I love these two gentlemen. So wise and 100% correct about new songs !!!

As a huge ABBA fan this made my heart so warm, I love these two gentlemen❤

I'm so happy to see him back ❤ these two gentlemen are gold ❤

This is the most wholesome, beautiful and humble thing I have watched all week. It was like a movie scene, friends all together reminiscing and watching one of the greatest bands in the world. Different era, different traditions and cultures listening to a song about hope and happiness. This reaction literally sang to my heart. I love this conversation and I love these friends...... Thank you for posting this ❤️🙏❤️

ABBA was the band that ignited my love for music as a kid in Sweden during the late 70's- early 80's. My parents bought me a portable cassetteplayer when I was 3 and gave me a tape with ABBA. I listened to it over and over as much as I could. Their music was and still is absolute magic. The wonderful harmonies between Anni Frids and Agnethas voices are so beautiful and uplifting. It was so cool to see these gentlemen react to this song. 😃

Such nice gentlemen. No one dislikes ABBA. They are sunshine in the sky and the best singers I ever heard. Harmonies are unmatched. This was a beautiful choice. Great reaction.

Written for Unicef's Year of the Child, Chiquitita - which means "Little Girl" in Spanish - was also the first song Abba recorded in Spanish, becoming a huge success across Latin America

Abba was one of the few bands in the world that was able to elevate commercial music to the level of art. The compositional genius of Swedish artists is also amazing : simple but brilliant melodies for generations . Greetings from Poland

Thank you for this . I am From Sweden and this made my day 😊 How music brings people together ❤

I like how these guys have different but not completely polarised opinions of music and different generations of culture. It's nice to see them discussing their feelings together as it becomes more of an open conversation rather than just saying how they feel individually.

It was wonderful to see Abdul back here with you. He is such a generous and wise man and I've always appreciated his pride and is honesty. He is for many across the world much like their grandfathers, with a wise and gentle word. To explain Abba to someone who never encountered it before is interesting because often an ABBA hit hits home and is loved because it reflects something universally understandable.. if not in their lyrics, always in their music. Thank you.

I was an au pair french girl in Alno ( sweden ) in 1974 when Abba won the Eurovision song contest . I had such a great Time in a wonderful swedish family than Abba and Sweden are in my heart forever.

This is everything! My heart is so grateful for the music of ABBA and the graciousness of these two gentlemen. God Bless.

This song is as old as I am, and I have known it all my life. And yet, you have provided me with a greater insight and understanding of the song than I had before. Wonderful to see these gentlemen again.

I forgot how beautiful this song is. Spiritual and supernatural sending love everywhere. Just gorgeous. Good will and happiness to these gentlemen.

Hearing an Abba song always warms my heart, no matter if its in a reaction video or advert or phone ringtone ANYWHERE. Abba really are/were extremely special.

A wonderfully astute and emotional reaction from our sagacious friends. I can relate to how Muharam feels, because I, too, am immensely grateful and happy Chacha has returned. We've missed him terribly. So glad to see he's feeling better. ❤

I'm glad that you took the time to explain what the meaning of the song Chiquitita was to our Tribal People gentlemen friends instead of just playing the song without giving them the storyline.

I'm from Sweden and I've been a fan of this channel for many months now so this was a really fun video for me :) Agnetha and Björn were married back then but they have been divorced for over 40 years. Anni-Frid and Benny were also married back then but they have also been divorced for over 40 years. 😅

This song always bring me to tears. It reminds me when me and my family lived abroad and my dad used to play this on roadtrips as me and my sister were falling asleep and it will forever being warmth and comfort to me

There's a real purity about these gentlemen which is lovely. I really like the way the gentleman on the left absorbed the music straight away and the gentleman on the right seemed to study it - even though he doesn't speak English. I wish them nothing but the best.

Die Songs von ABBA funktionieren auf der ganzen Welt. Völlig unabhängig von der Kultur und der Sprache in den jeweiligen Ländern. ABBA ist und bleibt einfach großartig.❤

What an utterly delightful video. I chanced across it by accident and am so glad I did. These are two very wise people, and we should all love each other more.

There will never be another ABBA. I listen to them everyday. 😊

These two gentlemen have real class. Dignified, wise, open hearted. I love the narrator's explanation of the song. It helps me to appreciate it too. I did not expect to hear them honour Michael Jackson, but there you go! Great music transcends. Thank you for posting this. XX

The ending where they share personal stuff was gold. I hope the older guy regains his health fully. I enjoy his input and elder wisdom.

This song has one of the best endings I have heard in a song. The piano is beautiful!

How could anyone _not_ be enchanted by Agnetha and Anni-Frid? They sing like angels... 🤍

When it's hard to hear anything good in the world you find this!!! We are taught we all are opposite and different from each other . . .I enjoy these sweet men - I hope all of us can be like this💙🙏😇

YOu can't deny the melody of this song is so happy and joyful and filling with emotional rises and falls!

Just beautiful to see both you two gentlemen hear this for the first time. Tears from England. Salute.

Much respect for this two Gentlemen 🙏🏼 They are so Wise and affectionate 🙏🏼

These guys especially the one with the yellow Turban speaks volumes about today's music. Hate fueled garbage older songs are of love and kindness. You nailed it. Thank you for commenting on the horrors of Western music in 2020

What wonderful gentle men. And I'm so happy to see your face again, Mister Chacha! I pray you may slowly but surely recover strength and health. I send you all much thanks for your insights and videos. I'm writing from France, sending my love to you all in Pakistan! 😊

"OLD IS GOLD"....My new motto!!!

Such a treat to see two gentlemen enjoy the beautiful music of ABBA for the first time

It is amazing to me how quality music effortlessly crosses any cultural or language barrier.

The sun is still shining, the boys are back in town and Adnan gifts us all with a beautiful song and reaction video ❤ What could be better? Welcome back sir.

I've just discovered your channel. These gentlemen are lovely souls 😊 and they clearly have good taste in music because they enjoyed ABBA so much. As they say, music was simpler and more melodic then. Love and best wishes from Australia 🇦🇺

I love these two beautiful men. I'm an Aussie and I stumbled across this video and I'm soo pleased I did. Their kindness and wisdom is incredible💜

The first time I heard this song I was around 10 years old. I am 57 now, and the song still creates an emotional reaction.

So very glad that Chacha is back and feeling better. There was something different about the light in his eyes today. They looked like they were they eyes of a young man, and made his face look more youthful. I don't know how to explain it any other way, but it seemed like a good thing. All my best to him, and all of you!

Let Chacha know that he was very missed, and we are very happy to see him back! Oh, and they are so correct, "old IS gold!" As a child born in the last month of the 50s, I was raised in the greatest Era of music ever. Nothing compares to it. I'd also love to see their reaction to "Unchained Melody".

Proof, if it was ever needed, that ABBA’s music is universal

I underestimated the pleasure in watching someone learning something new that they get enjoyment from!!! I found myself smiling as I watched!!

My first reaction when seeing the video title was like: there we go again, laughing about tribal people. I'm so glad I watched anyway and saw a sincere and honest reaction of impressed men, it also made the song brand new for myself, very touching!

Oh joy! Love this so much and so happy our friend is back in health! Blessings from Texas, USA

Brilliant idea which i never saw before. These two people are not "OLD"...they are "WISE. Very nice video.

OMG, this is the best thing I've seen in such a long time. I smiled through the whole thing and it absolutely warmed my heart. Thank you!!!

So glad to see our friend Chachaha back with us again. We have all missed him. And what a great song to welcome him back with. Abba has a universal appeal and wholesomeness that I knew he would appreciate. Can't wait for the next video

Welcome back!

Such wisdom from both these endearing men if all the peoples of the world thought like them ,we would all live in peace ,no matter colour or creed

Music is absolutely the universal language 💕

Great to see Abdul back. What ever sickness he had or has, I wish him long life and recovering. 🌹

Very interesting to discover how different people react to a song. These two men make very wise and clever comments. Bless them. Thank you for sharing this.

Indiana, USA here and I absolutely adore your videos. These gentlemen are wonderful to watch. Much respect.

As the saying goes, “ Music has no boundaries “ & “Love is universal “. ✌️

It was so cool to re-experience this song through their lens. Really amazing. Sincerely, a Swedish woman.

It is so nice to see brother Abdul is back. He is an intelligent , impressive man

What an incredible blessing to have been born during the era of ABBA! The first 45 I bought as a child, now 45 years later still bringing joy and elation from their harmonies, energy, and simple yet complex total package!

This was such a joy. I had a tear in my eyes at the end, hearing about Abdul’s illness. Beautiful music for beautiful people.

This song was my favorite of Abba's music. Ever since I was a little girl I loved it. Glad to have you back Abdul. I love hearing your insight on the music. You both are very wise men.💗

Who knew I would have so much in common with elderly Tribesmen from the other side of the world in a country so far away and different than mine. Fascinating that humans really are very similar when it comes to every day life and reactions, when no government or other group in power with all their agendas try to split us apart, for the sake of greed and money, hate and fear.

This 2 gentlemen are so sweet with a beautiful warm heart loving music. May God keep both of you wise ,happy and healthy. Hello from Canada.🇨🇦Thank you 🙏

Much respect to these two gentlemen and to the interviewer. I appreciate and respect your perspective. Thank you for your time and for your wisdom.

So honest, genuine and unfiltered. So interesting to hear what other cultures think of this song. Hello from Norway

These two always have wonderful commentary, I'm glad they liked it ABBA are the best ❤

Chacha had a very thoughtful look throughout the music. ABBA's music is uplifting. I'm a big rock and metal fan, but ABBA have a special place. I can't explain it.

Abba - when i still was a very young kid, my young parents (Mama brought me to live when she only were yust 18) had Abba records at home. Today i am 53 by the way. Born in '68. I was absolutely amazed by this music ; even that i could not understand the words, at that young age. I yust knew, felt the greatness! Right now i am seeing YOU, my friends, introduced to them and their music, enchants a smile on my face! *I am drinking cooled White Wine (Burgunder) and smoke a "MaryJane Cigarette😉" at the moment ; i am watching you and the song - Wow! Makes me feel good!

The wisdom runs deep with these two.

It is always a gift to see and hear these wise gentleman as they teach us how much in common we do have. Blessings my friends from Porto, Portugal.

I had the great honor and joy to have this song played for me by an old peasant on a harp on my 44th birthday. That happened on the countryside of Paraguay. And then I heard played on the accordion close to Finnish/Sweden border far north of the polar circle.... Sweet memories both! Chiquitita will stay around for a couple of centuries I guess!

Just love the balance between the two gentlemen. One sits completly still yet the other surrender to the music, that is the power of Abbas music to move the soul. Marvelous reaction

So heart-warming how open, wise, respectful and curious about life these two gentlemen are. Love seeing them again ❤

Nice to have Abdul back, can’t really watch any of these videos without his input. He has such a fascinating view on things

Love is boundless, especially in music, and perfectly in ABBA, and these two gentlemen knows it!

These sweet souls are so open & willing to understand other people's music & lyrics. How lovely

Oh, how happy I am to see both of you. Wisdom is precious.

These is ABBA, the iconic Swedish pop quartet, the best, most versatile and most important of the 70s, in the post BEATLES decade (the revolutionary group of the 60s) ABBA, as in its time BEATLES, was a musical and cultural phenomenon, and its legacy lives on ABBA is the biggest musical act in the history of both continental Europe and the non-English speaking world They are the first non-English speaking group to have considerable success in major English-speaking countries And is the first group to break with the hegemony of NorthAmerican, English and Australian artists in the music market dominated by British culture. ABBA is an acronim with the initials of their first names; initialy was two swedish couples too: A- Agnetha (blonde lead vocal) & B- Björn (guitarist and songwriter) B- Benny (pianist and songwriter) & A- Anni Frid (brunette lead vocal) (both couples separated before the breakup of the group in 1982) ABBA recording between 1972/1982, have a wonderful series of more than 20 worldwide hits, included nine #1 in UK: Waterloo Mamma Mia Fernando Dancing Queen Knowing me knowing you The name of the game Take a chance on me The winner takes it all Super trouper And after more than 35 years ABBA return to studio in 2017 and recording a full new album "Voyage" between 2017/2021 released in November 2021 and is a worldwide succes And in last May 2022 all four ABBA members asist to the premiere of the new Voyage concerts (with avatars of Theirself) in the new ABBA Arena at London UK (another greatest success,, with tickets on sale to November 2023) The ages of all ABBA members now is 72 Agnetha Fältskog ; 76 Benny Andersson 77 Björn Ulvaeus & Anni Frid (Frida) I hope to see more reactions to ABBA GOD bless you my best regards from Buenos Aires Argentina 🇦🇷 South America

These two gentleman are wise and great. I only watched them tasting all kinds of food, but they know also their fair share about good music. Greetings from the Netherlands.

I watched this having heard Chiquita many times but not really understanding it was about a girl. I started crying once I knew thinking about my daughter suffering from anorexia who was mad at me over something and refusing to go to bed. I sent her the lyrics and it could be the start of something good. This is such a great way to learn about songs

As a 1970's child from Finland, I love to hear these tunes. I am intrigued to hear and see the reactions of these two gentlemen. I woud like to thank the members of ABBA for their timeless and beautiful music. Last but not least, I would like to wish farewell to 2 ABBA musicians, Lasse Wellander and Slim Borgudd, who both passed away only very recently in early-2023. I have personal memories of Slim when he was racing in the European Truck Racing series in the 1990s. 💖🇫🇮

Yes, 60, 70, 80 were the best times ever. The music was great. They all had so much meaning to it. I remember listening to ABBA in the early 70's. I'm glad these nice folks "eventually" got to hear their music. ABBA was a Swedish group but they knew to break out to the World level they had to do it in English.

My sister and I listened to ABBA over and over when we were kids - bought new albums together with any Christmas or birthday money we received. Gave us joy through a difficult childhood as our mother struggled with mental illness and depression and eventually committed suicide in 1980, when I was 11. Even now, their music is uplifting since I have restarted listening after a hiatus. Though I do remember becoming reacquainted in my 20’s when another favourite band, Erasure put out “Abba-esque.” Then of course that helped kick start Mamma Mia! I got her tickets to that show when we lived in Toronto for her birthday. Now my favourite songs are, “Eagle” and “Day before you came.”

I already knew these gentlemen a couple of years ago, from various music reaction videos... They are really very frank, and at the same time very nice. I am a fan of ABBA, and his words only confirm how beautiful this music is. If they had known that they recorded an album over 70 years old, I think they would have been really impressed. Much respect and greetings from Chile 🇨🇱 (South America) ❤️👍

EVERYone loves Abba. Good idea. No matter how many lame music reactions people ask you to do, you can always be sure most people will love Abba.

This is inspiring. You have bought so much to the table. For one, I was not a big ABBA fan - that song gave me chills.

It seems that the song resonated so deeply within them that they began spontaneously to speak of their love for each other and the strong bond among the family. This is what beautiful music does even when the listeners do not understand the words. God bless these men and their family and the producers of this video.

We are all very happy to see this very diplomatic, wise and charming gentleman again! Hope you recovery continues!❤
