- Though you might not know it today, ABBA was once unbelievably popular pretty much the whole world over. The group gained exposure overnight in a European songwriting competition, and their undeniably catchy and sparkling sound earned them legions of fans wherever their music was played. Before long, one member of ABBA even married into royalty, so esteemed was their work in the world of music. But then the broke up, and were famously stingy about appearing or performing together in the years to follow. ABBA vowed that they'd never rejoin forces, but that turned out (very recently) not to be the case. Here's what happened to the members of ABBA.

My dad had a lot of Abba cassette collections and I later fell in love with their songs .My favourite track of theirs is Fernando
it should be noted that all 4 members of this group actually attended the world premier of the movie Mamma Mia! back in 2008
ABBA is such an amazing band , I was never alive when they were actively producing music but I wish that music now was like that.
Hehe, this aged fine
New album coming out on the 5th november.... :)
@@okarnillokarnill975 yeah I heard about that! :) how do you feel about them making more music?
@@furulund xD
@@bronwyn.mp3 Oh overjoyed! I missed them the first time round. I didn't get into music very early and by then they were not popular although I've always loved their songs. The new songs manage to convey a grown up Abba while maintaining the lovely melodies and lyrics and sheer catchiness that they had. Pure skill IMO. I'm also immensely grateful that they've chosen to do this in London, I mean wow, when we're basically having all manner of nastiness aimed at us for various things, it's like 'someone still likes us, omg thank you' I think too that it's given the fans a bit of light in what has been an awful couple of years and uncertainty still ahead. Something to look forward to with the Live show, I'ma bit sad but understanding that they're doing it via 'Abbatars' but if it means we get more music and a show... Absolutely, and it's also exciting because this is a new format of Show, and I love that they're the trailblazers for it. For the band I hope the pressures they felt before do not reemerge as the world once more goes into Abbamania. I would like to think that this time they can enjoy it with us and not feel pressured.
Hmmmm. I can’t wait to see how they feel now in Sept of 2021. A new album is making me feel all happy 😃
So weird... I was just listening to them this morning! I get mocked by everyone around me for listening to them (except my mom, she loves them.) Not only because it's ABBA. But also because of the fact I mainly listen to punk. I guess the music gods get angry if I listen to Chiquitita right after the Ramones. Guilty pleasure? I feel no guilt about it.
It surprises a lot of people how many metal artists have cited ABBA as an inspiration. There are a few heavy metal tribute albums and some bands have covered ABBA songs in their catalog as well

I'd be very interested in checking them out if you know the names of the comps or the name of some bands & the songs they cover. I don't know if you like 80's/New Wave but Erasure put out an EP of some ABBA songs that was pretty good.
Don't feel bad! I'm an old classic rocker guy who loves AC/DC,& I've been an ABBA fan since they started!
Yayye...I am very happy to hear their latest news...Big fan from Malaysia
I heard the new music and my God, I had the uber goosebumps!!!
I was a child in the 70s I do remember there tunes
ABBA was my parent's favorite band and mine was Ace of Base
I remember watching Mama Mia hundreds of times and the music was so good I had to know who made it. Today Abba is now a pert of me and I am still shocked about how they there was a Broadway performance and 2 movies all made through the form of Abbas music
They're coming back! ❤
Are they?
@@malenyluna5275 yeah you didn't know that
@@Miist3rDuce1 nice!!
I remember having the hit single "Dancing Queen" on vinyl when I was about 7 or 8. It still brings up great childhood memories,❤
Thanks. Thanks. Very. Nice. Very. Nice. Pretty. Pretty
Welcome back Abba!
They're back! Released new songs today!
Yes. People did wear clothes like that in the 1970s
I had wooden shoes until 1952 & now I have leather shoes. But now being in a wheelchair I can used them 😔🦽
I always see more than a bit of sadness in Aga's eyes.......
I heard they’re coming out with a new album this year.
Tomorrow I think or Friday
November 5th ~ Voyage
My 5 most favorite ABBA songs:
1. The Winner takes it all (disco + drama = tears on the dance floor kitsch, which I love)
2. Dancing Queen - I love this song since I was a kid.
3. Thank you for the music - my personal anthem, as a music lover and enthusiast.
4. Take a chance on me - this song is fun , especially when you try to sing it.
5. Chiquitita
I ain't gonna front I love Abba....🙂🎹🎤🎤🎵🥁🎶
Heard of ABBA over the years but wasn't intimately familiar with them or anything but thats interesting this video. Wow they must have really not wanted to be bothered to turn down a billion..They're definitely not greedy musicians like most today.
Their integrity is pretty much unrivaled in the music industry.
I'm sure there's a few others like them out there here and there but super rare no doubt. Dolly Parton comes to mind she donated 1 million plus last year to help with the current situation. I dont see many celebs doing that either you know?
Their 2 new singles dropped today. Fantastic!!
I loved Chess!
They sang some fantastic songs..and good entertainment...their private life , belongs to them..it was the music that energized the world...
They didn't used to be popular. 'Used', plural. They're more popular today than they've ever been.
ABBA Gold is still in the UK top 200! It's been out 20 years.
1 in 4 households have ABBA Gold in Australia
ABBA did release some music in 1982 contrary to what the narrator said.
When you turn down a reunion tour paying 1 Billion dollars you know your a real star!..
I'm happy for them
i know enough i heard it over and over again.
the pronunciation of their names is horrendous.
My favorite song is Gimmie Gimmie
They're back baby!
At 12:39 he looks goofy in his 1970s garb.
Fashon wise, the 70's was a regrettable time. I remember my mom buying me those God awful polyester clothes. At least everyone else was wearing them too. Stay safe.
Australia made ABBA a success Australia couldn't get enough of them and our music guru Molly Meldrum went to Sweden and asked for more videos ppl around the world were saying why is ABBA so big in Australia so thats when the rest of the world went oh these guys are really good
Actually England also greatly contributed to thier popularity.
@@kms_tbh it took England a year as the music executives were wondering why is this band in the Aussie music charts maybe there's something more with this band our music guru Molly Meldrum had to ask Abba to make more videos as we couldn't get enough so they made quite a few videos for us Aussie before the UK finally played Fernando it stayed at no.1 for 14 which is the longest record at no.1 and stayed in our charts for 40yrs but Ed Sheeran has now taken the title but Abba has always said if it wasn't for us Aussie they would have faded like all most Eurovision winners
@@juliemarsden1858 Waterloo peaked at number 1 in 1974 before Mamma Mia and Fernando also peaked at number 1. England was the epicentre for Pop Music at the time, and when Voulez Vous and Angleyes released it became the newest sensation. Australia may have been obsessed with ABBA but England is what launched them. There was no Internet and being quite isolated meant that ABBA couldn't of relied on there success there. The UK however was at the centre of the western world.
Informative video, but the announcers vocal fry made it very hard to listen to.
YOU GOT THAT RIGHT .
I was just about to comment on that. Puts Britney to shame, which is quite rare. Annoying to listen to, and it'll slowly kill her voice for sure.
I really love their songs
Looking back i use them as for video editing and every single vid they got hits even if it rust!
It is hard to perform together when they were married to each other then divorced….that would be tough.
Wow
the cat outfits MEOW X 10
Something going on is a killer song!I'm a metalhead,love that tune
Omg :0
Here to check on pronunciation - I give the narrator a 7/10. Ulvaeus is ool-VAY-oos and Agnetha's last name is Feltz-kog, not Feltz-kewg.
Fältskog (fieldforest)
I'm Swedish...
@@monaandersson5815 Så det irriterade dig också att höra hur berättaren uttalade Agnethas namn.
I loved abba
Se viene álbum
And a child lead the way to bring the group that.
New music coming 3.9.2021 😀
3 seconds in and out due to the narrator's voice and tone
you're 4 days too soon . They released two new tracks today
And they are back, hahaha
Oh my god... Too much information..
The run on Chess on Broadway can be counted in weeks, not months!
Somehow this video completely forgot about the first revival via “Gold,” “ABBA-esque,” and the Australian movies that paid respect to its music. Casual listeners thinking ABBA was reborn through Mamma Mia, ugh.
Abba was definitely
“revived” by mama mia.
Literally, they suddenly were everywhere again, globally.
To be revived, means to have the CASUAL fans back again.
@@alexalexalex797I’m not taking anything out of the Mamma Mia experience…but ABBA’s rebirth began in ‘92 with “Gold” and Abba-esque. Look it up.
@@DiegoMartinezDP trust me mate, globally abba came back with the mamma mia movie.
The rest was pretty much only for the fans.
Once mamma mia came out, suddenly everyone was a fan again.
Abba became mainstream again
It was an Australian TV show "Countdown" that launched them internationally and even Mama Mia was not even going to be released as a single until the Countdown host Ian "Molly" Meldrum insisted. Australians love ABBA more than anyone.
@@richardhayes845 the band said if it wasn't for us Aussies Abba would've faded away like most Eurovision winners
ABBA. Puppets crack me up
"Faltsgoog"??? Faltsgoog??? Who tf allowed this to be posted
"O" Mr. Serengia, how do you do.... 🤓🤓🤓
I have enough money to make them change their minds only missing is the kick to make them do it- they are too old and in this I agree with them
A B B A A B B A Start . Aladin level skip Sega Genesis.
Well…now…we know
Such an odd and strange title?? Like they have disappeared?
Loved this group growing up. Anna-Frid is actually of Norwegian-German heritage because her mother had an affair with a Nazi during the German Occupation and had to leave Norway due to the stigma. I wasn’t aware that Frida had been married before she married her ABBA bandmate. It’s very tragic that she lost a child in a car accident, it’s more painful to lose a child than a parent.
Arghhh.. what's with inflection at the end of every sentence !
Can we just get the pronunciation correct!
ABBA
THEY RETIRED!
Her voice is class
Just when you think the world can’t get any worse due to covid, you find out that Abba is bringing out a new album this year. Please stop the madness.
Probably counting their money.
They where offered 1 billion dollars to tour. Before, I doubt it.
ABBAtars are kinda creepy.
The Vocal Fry from the announcer is horrible.....
First
What’s with the silly pronunciation of their names lol 😂
2 Untalented Limbo!
Who gives a crap
A billion people
What’s with the person narrating??? Can’t make out a word. Blah, blah, blah 😑
