I am 88 and still love them...
This was one of the best things I’ve ever seen - flew from Australia. After 23 hours in a plane, completely exhausted, it was still incredible
I am in Australia too Oztish..............Can't wait to see it.............I know that Gene and Paul from KISS have met with the boys from ABBA about this also............
I was never much of a fan of ABBA but their songs are so familiar. I would say that I have become a fan now though at the age of 60. This concept is incredible. I would love to see it.
No better recognition from a new musical generation ... they were like stratospherically high vocalists, they are like juggernauts in vocals ..." This explains why Abba's music continues to endure and be lovingly covered by so many, years later, wanting to immerse themselves in catchy lyrics and stunning harmonies.
Bring this show to Las Vegas!! That way fans in the US can go see it 👏🏻👏🏻
It looks like that is going to happen!
i went on the 2nd june , omg i have never experienced anything like it , thats all i am saying i have re booked tickets for august , i need to see it again , my mind was blown
I'm glad you were able to attend the ABBA concert and I'm thrilled that got another chance to attend the concert. Did you find any unique items in the ABBA gift shop?
Yo el 2 de julio y quiero volver!!!
@@speedlearner había bastante merchandising camisetas etc
I went last week. Out of this world
GOD BLESS THE ORGANISERS,GOD BLESS TECHNOLOGY AND GOD BLESS ABBA
They are all so perfect ❤️
Going to see this in June 2024. Both me and my wife are totally excited and can’t wait.
You are going to love it. My husband and I saw it in April and it was fantastic. So much joy in that arena!!
Benny was having fun on stage with them hearing the songs live again. You can tell enjoying it. I like seeing him get into it all. The music is magical after all and has that kind of effect on everyone! The Magic of ABBA wasn’t just an Album Title! They really had the Magic! Just like the Beatles did! Seeing them together again in the Get Back documentary wondrous as well but this is a different experience altogether. They have been Digitally DeAged. Which is something new and Strange! Like it or not, It’s a Brave New World 🌎! I like that all four ABBAS got together again and got to see themselves young again. That must be kind of Strange but that’s HiTech! Embrace it or you get left behind!👏🏻
Люблю с детства и до сих пор))) Любовь на всю жизнь
😁👍👍👍
THE ABBA VOYAGE CONCERT WHEN I SAW IT WAS REALLY EXCELLENT AND I HOPE TO GO AGAIN ASAP . ROB XX
I love new innovative things. Seeing it applied to ABBA is something that no one has ever done before. They are the first to try this challenge. I hope I can see them live someday or maybe on DVD with this new technology.🙂
Super ! At Last - ABBA is So PIONEER`S
July 10 2023 Here I come!!!!! Can't wait!!!
It was absolutely fabulous ❤
Best show ever
It'll probably become a permanent fixture of London. Let's have a Freddie Mercury one next.
But Freddie is dead
@@jazmorrison9030 there is definately enough footage of him to use as reference it could be done
The band is Queen
@@briankehew579 Is it?' There's me thinking he was a solo act, even after buying all their records/cd's and first got in to Queen when i watched the live aid concert as a kid.
I take it you seen the movie and have liked them for a couple of years.
I was a fan when he was alive.
They are my favorite im already in my 60s. I love their music and it moves me.
This is massive technology thrill! Imagine bringing back more greats like Lennon and Harrison, Michael Jackson, etc etc. That would be so incredible! I love Abba and it was MAGIC seeing them in this way. Now Abba truly IS eternal in more ways than one. :)
Actually, that has been done with Michael Jackson, I saw it in the Cirque du Soleil MJ show in the Mandalay Bay, Las Vegas. It was only one song but seeing Michael Jackson as hologram really brought a tear to my eye, watching as if he was alive. Really great tech
YOU ARE NOT THE ONLY ONE/ PERSON WHO [ LOVE'S ] [ ABBA ] . ROB. XX.
You're not bringing anybody back. You're just watching a graphic. We've been able to watch bands via video for decades. I don't get all the breathless excitement over something fake. High-tech fake is still fake. There is no real.
An incredible concert, saw it last year and was absolutely stunned, it was simply amazing!
It was the most joy full amazing thing I’ve ever seen . Everyone should try see it ❤❤❤
One of the best nights of my life💖
Abbasolutley the best gig I have seen. Its incredibly clever what can be done these days. Hopefully get back to see this again at some point.
I’d absolutely LOVE to see this! I went to a abba tribute in my local theatre last year but this must be amazing to go to! Hoping to go later this year!!
ABBA/Polar Music presented an unwanted contrast in the 70's and that still true today.
A indie group from Sweden with a tiny home label, Polar Music, that went around the American-British monopolistic rock-pop corporate record label establishment to get heard.
How?
1. Eurovision Song Contest (Waterloo)
2. Low budget music clips sent to TV station program directors around the world. ABBA TV before MTV.
3. TV show appearances around the world to introduce themselves and their music to the world.
BOOM! Huge global grassroots explosion in all parts of the world - no matter region, culture, language. People connected to the beautiful melodies and lyrics about the human condition.
That is how ABBA became so big.
The little engine the busted up the American-British monopolistic establishment by using "social media" of the 70's.
With this technology,,,, ABBA will live FOREVER!!!!!!!!!!!!! As it should be. Along with Aldo Nova and Styx!!!!
Take ear protectors with you, it is very, very loud.
The show is absolutely insane. A must for technology enthusiasts and for ABBA fans anyway. I was absolutely thrilled and will definitely watch the show again, twice, three times....
One of the best things I’ve ever seen on stage ….been twice and Will definitely be going again
I’m guessing the tix were extremely expensive?
The Beauty of all of this coming together really blew me away. I am so Jealous of those who got to witness this all happening live.
can't wait to go in Oct
Qué tal fue???
The technology behind this production is ingenious. Credit should be given to the techy people behind this innovative production. As with typical scandinavian style, the arena is tastefully built with pine beams. Its a shame they were not serving hot dogs with swedish meat balls.
Imagine this being done for the Beatles.
Maravilloso!!!
Live 4ever!!!
Absolutely dystopian
TOO GOOD!
My first job after grad school and sitting in a nearly empty apt with my phonograph and ABBA album. When friends came over, guess what we listened to?
2:13 so much beauty
Having seen it, I must say how staggeringly brilliant it all is… to those calling for other acts to have a similar show though… I’m not sure quite how it would feel if they brought back people from the dead.
The fact that ABBA are alive and played a massive part in creating it - made it seem authentic and okay to lose yourself in.
To bring someone back from the dead - just for the betterment of their estate and a record company etc… I’m not sure about that.
I just heard KISS sold their catalogue and likenesses to get a similar treatment with a show coming in 2027. Hopefully we'll see more incredible bands from our past follow suit.
Regarding deceased acts, I'm not sure. I think someone like Freddie Mercury would WANT his voice and his message to continue to impact lives, but then where do you draw the line?
ABBA AQUÍ EN MEXICO SE LES QUIERE MUUUCHO 🇲🇽🇲🇽🇲🇽🇲🇽🥹🥹🥹🥹VENGAN A MÉXICO 🥹🥹🥹🥹🇲🇽🇲🇽🇲🇽🇲🇽👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Will this ever appear on DVD or Blu-Ray?
Five years only? Vegas Sphere is built for ever
I find it difficult to understand what they mean when they say that this is never done before. A similar project of a concert of the long deceased Maria Callas toured around the world starting a few year (2018 or earlier) before the ABBA project.
26 de Abril 2024 em Curitiba Brasil.
If the ABBAtars are reproducing their "real" movements as they say.. how is that we see dancing with turns and stuff in the final animation? Did ABBA members danced like pros ?? :D
Footage must have been reversed. Impossible everyone in the backing band is left-handed.
A really cool video.
The footage is the correct way round. You can tell by the way the band are set up (exactly as it is in the flesh) and the parting in Benny’s hair is correct.
@@discogareth 🤣🤣yeah, right. blocked.
The technology is much better and more useful than virtual reality.😂
So, unless you can make it to London, you'll never see this show is what I'm getting.
Yeah that makes me really sad
The Anni-Frid Lyngstad"s avatar looks like princess Fionna from Shrek...jejejejejeje
Look out for Kiss soon. :-)
Please help: do they really appear in 3D (center stage)? If yes - how?? If it's not a hologram (and reportedly it is not)... ...how do they appear in 3D. *I am blown away* and would appreciate an explanation, thank you 🙏
YES YES YES YES!!!!!!! I can’t wait to flying to London to see this!
2:11 Crunch Crunch.
5 Krispies for him
Have an AVATAR of Freddie Mercury next? Good idea!
I thought they were already avatars in the seventies!
Alguien sabe si ya es oficial que se prolongue más allá de mayo 2023?
Yo fui anoche y vi tickets hasta Mayo del 2023
They need to do this...with Michael Jackson...and Prince. Maybe Pink Floyd. Maybe even Elvis!
does anyone know where to watch this concert online
You can’t. It’s its forbidden to film it. Any footage online is immediately taken down. Besides videos won’t do this justice at all
Did they sing Fernando?
It is impossible for the same 10 musicians to perform 7 or 8 times a week for potentially 5 years without a break. Is there a second set who share the job and provide cover for holidays and sickness? If not, what is the combination? If there are more than 10 can anyone supply ALL their names, please?
All the live musicians parts have been recorded and will be played whenever one of them are sick or have to go to the dentist. They have to play exactly in tempo to a metronome click so that the ABBA song are in sync so it is easy to replace an instrument or choir singer with a prerecording. Instruments and voices are only heard as amplified thru speakers and sounds they same if played from digital tape. I don't know why they insist of having live musicians when they have to play like robots. It's probably PR related to justify the high ticket prices.
@@urbanlarsson8252 Thank you very much. Are you connected to the show? If not, what is the source of your information, please?
They all have understudies. But it serms to be a fate of many musicians that they continue to play the same music over and over again. It is the same with Westend Musicals. You certainly will not hear an Improvisation during a Phantom of the Opera Show
I don’t know this show particularly but I know musical theatre - most major shows perform 8 shows a week for as many years as it can and therefore has an iron-clad team of understudies who are there every night and who can step in if needed. They are contracted for a year but I know many actors who have gone for many many years as a time
@@autisticamberr thank you
Wow Brian May and Queen could recreate Freddie
is it just me or are the clips at the end computer generated
That's the point, it's digital recreation of the performance onstage, but looks real from the audience perspective.
GG AI
unfassbar toll. wuerde das gerne sehen.................. aber leider weit und bestimmt teuer
die billigsten tickets sind 40£, ist etwa ausserhalb der stadt
They should had contacted professionals for those avatars, they really look like 10 years behind in terms of looking like real people on stage. Even in video games they can make better CGI.
Kiss should do this.
So, Abba will be physically present on stage lip synching to their recorded vocals from the albums, with a backing band playing the live music?
No. Son avatares, hologramas. Pero tendrías que verlo para creerlo parecen auténticos y reales es impresionante
El show es tan real, nunca he visto algo así. Lo volvería a ver de vivir en Londres
No. They are all in their 70s and the avatars are made to look like they are in their 20s/30s. They were filmed using CGI or whatever in real life performing in a sound stage but then digitized and made to look much younger.
Sitting there in the audience at the Abba Arena I sometimes thought: Thats not Abba singing. That's not the voice of Agnetha. The pitch is too high...
Being at "Abbamania - The Show" a week earlier I must say: They also cover Abba perfectly.
I was under the impression, I would see "Abba" Live. (Appearing as avatars) but the singing would still be from Abba. OK, it wasn't really. At least no all the time.
"Does your mother know" finally destroys the imagination, when "Avatar Björn" starts and the Band takes over. Only one of several disapointments in the show.
Don't get me wrong: The show in general is absolutely fantastic and brilliant. 99% perfekt. Never seen "Rainbow colored Laser" before... But e.g. showing 2 "Comic" Films (Eagle and Voulez Vous) is simply boring and those "false" voices who simply can't really cope with Agnetha and Frida...
I'm not very clear about one thing. Is there a real band that performs at every concert and plays the music bases? And then I'm not clear about the voices. Why does the band sing? Aren't the songs in the show sung and recorded by the real ABBA?
Can anyone explane me this thigs? Thank you
They use the lead vocals of Frida and Agnetha (and probably the backing vocals of Benny and Björn) from the 70s/80s recordings, but then have a live band performing on the side of the stage playing the music and adding backing vocals. ABBA had all four members sing multiple layers so the sound was fuller. Usually the songs were sung with either of the women singing lead, or together in harmony, but they also added different harmonies in the background, which is what the live vocalists are singing in the venue.
I think the Spice Girls will be next!
det skulle vore bra att de skulle åtminstone sjunga en låt på svenska.
Absolut MAGIC ABBA SONG ! Following ABBA VOYAGE!
𝕡𝕣𝕠𝕞𝕠𝕤𝕞 👍
They keep saying this concert is the first of its kind, so hatsune Miku and the crew just never existed then.
I love ABBA/Agnetha but this looks a bit strange
I doubt that it was "like" a masterclass, more likely that it WAS a masterclass.
abba sing not Self
Creepy.
Kate moss needs to get over herself
The idea of putting old heads on young bodies didn't work. What a stupid idea.
Got this from the Internet .... "As of September 4, 2023, 'ABBA Voyage' has generated over $150 million in sales and sold more than 1.5 million tickets, outperforming many major live shows. The venue maintains a near-perfect attendance record, with a 99% full house every night." .... so, yep, I guess, a flop! 😂😂
@@TRguy64 Thanks for setting me straight. I had no idea that fans would enjoy this.
@@DavidEVogel The entire production team and ABBA themselves worked hard to develop a classy innovative project. But, yes, I understand, we all can't like the same things, I think it's much like one's taste in food, we either like it or not, sometimes it can grow on us, other times it's a solid pass, just the way it goes!
Digital AI Garbage.
Show made for the gay community, that all.
I don’t understand, why don’t they just play live? strikes me as a bit lazy and a bit of a con to charge people prices to watch a movie screen.
It's a nostalgia trick, to see them young again. All bulshit. People sometimes rejects to accept that old comes
C'est pas con, puisque c'est rentable... la nostalgie des uns rapporte aux autres. Je suis réaliste, même si j'aime beaucoup la musique d'Abba.
They are in their mid 70's. Do you expect them to get on stage 2 times a day for the next 4 years? Not lazy, just realistic for their age.
is this show in youtube ?
