Please Frida and Agnetha, show up in media like Bjorn and Benny do. We miss you!!!!! 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
Without the girls, the boys would not be where they are today.
@Bjorn Ernest Doesn't really have anything to do with ABBA...but OK.
I so agree! Would love to hear them talk too, love you all
Such a grounded, cheerful, humble, articulate, likeable, intelligent, relatable fella. Despite the enormous impact their music has had on pop culture through the years. Icons, the four of them. Comforting to know ABBA is still with us. Thank you for your music. And for all the joy you're bringing.
This guy seems like you could sit down and have a cup of coffee with him and reminisce on both ends...
They're all so down to earth.
He speaks such a good English. Talented in so much. The lyrics he wrote for ABBA is timeless.
Beautiful soul ❤
(Almost) every Swede speaks fantastic English. Almost the whole population grows up bilingual.
indeed
This is not the only language he speaks, I heard him speaking very fluent German, passable French, and pretty good Spanish.
ABBA have been my favourite band since I was at school in the 1970’s. Their music has never aged, it is still fresh and brilliant today as it was back then. I can’t wait for their new songs.
He's so down to earth despite his phenomenonal success🌟😊 I can't believe he is one of the members that arrived to Abbamania in Australia. But I am so grateful 😍
....my grandfather always said the most humble of people are the real people of this world.
ABBA no EGO, Real TALENT, Classy all of them...
Welcome back ABBA we NEED you and your music again...
2021!
What a wonderful man, doesn't look or sound his age, such an adorable smile, kind, grounded caring person, truly talented, deserving of success and wonderful to listen to , I'll never stop loving ABBA as a girl of the 70s, he is an icon, and so articulate, great interview, I hope and his wife stay safe
Bjorn is looking well, so glad to see this and hear from him! He's always such a gentleman. I am so excited to hear the new recordings and maybe see one of their upcoming virtually enhanced live shows.
I love ABBA. Wish they never broke up.
@@eleazarchiazoronyekwere2115 Think they never official broke up. They paused since '82.....
Ho come on, anybody would look well with 200million in the bank, best food, best medicine, no stress, the most lated country in the World.
So nice to see him active and positive about the future
I was 10 years old and remember Abba winning eurovision. But its the songs after that became so iconic
I have loved ABBA for all the pat 40 years! It is such a pleasure to watch this interview and I often listen to ABBA's music! Can't wait for the new songs.
This is so wonderful. Always a pleasure to hear Björn speak and this is definitely one of his most interesting interviews. :)
New music from ABBA is the bright spot on this crazy whirlwind of a year 2020 ! So looking forward to this
АВВА стала легендтой многих
💛 her questions. Finally a reporter that is with dignity and grace asking so many beautiful questions.
Awww he said "I and Agnetha have 5 grandchildren we share"
😭😭😭 happy cry, those words touching my heart in such a soft way.
Their grandchildren united them for rest of their lifes.
💛💛💛
She was really hurt by the break up which he sadly does not acknowledge!!
True
I love this human being. So inspiration to humanity.
Björn is so sweet (and modest even if he's a genius) and Tania is delightful here as always. This was a joy to watch. Thank you.
What a wonderful respectful approach to interviewing Tania had here - far more successful than the often seen devils advocate approach - a pleasure to watch and the best interview with bjorn I have seen yet - huge respect to you both and thank you
I just completed watching her interview and felt the same. I especially enjoyed learning that the 4 of them felt so comfortable when returning together to the recording studio.
I love this beautiful band
GREETINGS from Honduras
A brilliant man. Living in his time and seeing, hearing his craft that he and his beautiful ex wife Angetha and Benny and Frida gave the world is what my grand children will remember what their grand father loved so much. Abbas musics will live on and my grandsons will remember me. Thank you.
Thank you CNBC for a good interview (many interview with A, B, B and A these days, are not always good).
And, as always, lovely to see Björn's smile 😃🎶✨💖👍
He speaks English very well. Such an amazing person. Much love.
With all this situation in a WORLD , I still enjoy ABBA ON U TUBE !!! THANK YOU FOR WONDERFUL MUSIC!!! GOD BLESS YOU !!!
Большого и крепкого здоровья!!!!!!! Всем здоровья!!! И ещё ЛЮБВИ!!! ABBA одна из самых великих групп!!!!
From Santa Rosa in Tokyo in 1972 to Brighton, Sydney, Glasgow and now Kilkenny...the super troupers have regaled us with the Ode to freedom in the time of the metaverse space of 2021...This 50 year fleeting voyage will now slow down andante andante and take a breather....I am sure the voyage will continue somehow...as long as the eagles, birds and bumblebees spread their wings, these two dancing queens and their kings will never lose their crown or spirit....thanks for showing us the noble way old friends do to appreciate the little things...Once you told us you were nothing special, infact maybe a bit of a bore, but when all is said and done... we could not have asked for more... It was our privilege and destiny, to have shared your history, an epic half century...from the glitz and glamour of that Eurovision night to Agnetha wearing the covid mask... you basked in the glory with dignity and humility...your next stage in this marvelous voyage is the remaining little step towards immortality....the gods had a notion; threw the dice and just like that took a chance on you....and you lent us your voice and let your music speak so beautifully....no doubt about it! Heaven help your hearts and we thank you once again...for the music voyage...and all the little things it brought to us!
ABBA,,, THE BEATLES............Greatest groups EVER !!!!!
Beatles the greatest, Abba second greatest , but you know what Abba are my favourite band.
stand by then, for some shocks.....TAVISTOCK
God bless him 🙏
What a nice man. Or Should I say Gentleman.🎼❤️🇦🇺
Genio total, ABBA, me acompañó toda mi adolescencia y juventud, cómo sufrí cuando se disolvió.
Very down earth … gentleman and so talented.
Bjorn is so humble and smart. I love ABBA not only as talented musicians but as down to earth people. Love your new album ABBA. It's blown the roof off the music world.
Give some credit to the great ABBA Tribute bands that helped keep their music alive and popular. I was at the Broadway Premiere of Mamma Mia on Broadway, and I was also at the Mamma Mia Movie Premiere in NYC. I was also at a dinner dance fund raiser for ASI (American Swedish Institute) in Minnesota in 2006 where Benny and his band BAO were the entertainment. I got a photo with Benny and Helen Sjoholm. All thanks to The ABBA Fan Club.
I wouldn't mind seeing Frida and Agnetha kissing their hellos back after oh so long!!
Love ABBA
Love Björn
I ❤️ Voyage
That great new album brought back life to my veins; it did literally heal me.
Thank you for the music 🙏🏻
Such a lovely man.
Intelligent. Wise. Forget about the money and fame. We should all have the contentment possessed by Björn. And interesting person.
Hermosa entrevista con Björn es muy dulce además sigue siendo muy guapo
Wonderful interview. Thanks
Very sympathic..
Want " ABBA- Reunion
God this man is a class act😎
Fantastic interview from Fantastic man. Thanks very much. AB
Great interview!
i loved ABBA Since i was 3 years old
Super cool guy, Bjorn, as well as the other three ABBA members...
Wonderful,Wonderful!!!!
Es un fenómeno. BENDICIONES
That swipe on Trump was class :D :D
Priceless !
Excellent interview!
I bet there will be a new album in time for Christmas...
Class. A foreigner not bashing the President Trump as people in his own country do.
Showing respect 🙌 👏 👌
I guess he knew what incredible things Trump & his allies did to stop the deep state/cult horrendous crimes against humanity.
Amazing, , Thank you so mush to see WONDERFUL GENIUS PERSON IN A WORLD!!!
10:20 I WAS IN THAT VIDEO OK BYE IM DEAD
Ulvaeus-Anderson in the same league as Lennon-McCartney.
what?....in the context of carrying on the "charade" of song-writing.....stand-by to be shocked at how you have been manipulated by these demons who sold their souls for fame and fortune.
@@XiShack You need a chill pill,
Exellent groupe que j ecoute souvent merveilleuse musique de ces 4 exellents musiciens 👍💞👩💻
Bjorn, a very grounded man, glad to hear that ABBA still see each other. I wish, like Sweden, we did not have the lock down. Do not think is was necessary!
You wait...........Its 2021 now and Sweden is buggered like the rest of the world, apart from where I am maybe in Western Australia !!!
Agnetha Faltskog!!!
Agheneta Faltskog Forever!!
you mean Agnetha?
@@kimbozw1808 what??
@@fernandobarbosa1580 Agnetha is the correct way to spell the name. Just saying. Gracias.
@@kimbozw1808 oh! Yes! Thanks dude! But my cel fixed it wrong !! That broker and a great shit
Release new music already!
I'm from Romania and we had some of the hardest rules and still we are almost as high as Sweden's deaths/million. It seems to me that no matter what, covid takes it's toll. The question is why take down the economy along, if both ways lead to the same results in terms of deaths.
АВВА с годами прекрасней
BJERN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ABBA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
GOOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!! SUPPER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
💥💖💯💙💙🎉❤🎉💝💝💝💝💖💥💚💥💖💖💖💖💖💯💯💯💖💯💖💯💖💥
We are going to beat this. Advancements in treatments are being used with great success.
Loving the Adidas T.....
You are joking, of course. Do the work my friend. ADolf DASsler (AD i DAS) is demonic NAZI ILLIMUNATI
@@XiShack sounds like you've already done it.. thats why he's wearing it.. I see it now... abba are demonic socialists.. they must be in league with that nancy pelosi and the democrats..
@@davidkersey2414 they are also mind control muppets of the TAVISTOCK Inst. Just like the Beatles. A complete fabrication that will be obvious to all very shortly.
@@XiShack I'll take your word for that one..
Зачем бросил красавицу Агнетту ,Бьорн вы плохо поступили .
She left him.
who misses the old Bjorn
This is the old Björn :)
hahaha ironic
Actually, he looks better than when he was younger. Not looking 75 AT ALL.
You mean you don't like this cy-BJORG. Great disclosure video. Hats off to the White Hats. Nothing Can Stop What Is Coming....
I wonder what Bjorn thinks of vertical farms.
Чтобы значили эти парни,если бы девочки,которых они так обидели, не вернулись?
Калi будуць новыя песьнi!?
ᗅᗺᗷᗅ
I wonder how many plant leaves are on his shirt
It looks like Adidas logo
4:34-4:47...D'OH! Shots fired. We in the US AGREE with you Bjorn! It's much better now without him.
Do you read the papers or watch your Liberal president make a fool of himself? Of course he has half a brain, so that’s his excuse. Is it yours too. Better watch your tv more often.
Jesus Christ invites and wants you to believe in Him, so you get saved and go to Heaven and not to Hell.
Matt 13:41-42. 25:41.
Mark 9:43-48.
Luke 16:19-31.
John 3:3-7,16. 14:6.
What a waste of an interview to talk about Covid to ABBA? Jeeez
Its difficult to relate to Bjorn's idea that streaming becomes "dull to watch", yet Abba has now decided to crate a video game version of themselves, in concert along with a new album. They should do an actual live set, They should rent a place, hook up the Hi Def, and put on a real show. Instead they wanted to tech fake it, and become animation in concert. For me, this is a bitter disappointment. And yes, i realize that the members of Abba are too old to tour, but they decided never to come back for the last 40 yrs...... They are not too old to make this cartoon concert that took weeks of filming.... So, they can do that, but can't sing 15 Abba songs, live, in a room, and Film it, and release it?
Sweden adopted the most sensible strategy.
The rest of the world is BS.
Please no more Mama Mia films or even silly Avatars, all we want is a brand NEW ALBUM get it.????
