The Mexican Revolution!
so happy to see you again with ABBA songs
"Fernando" (1976)
is a soft ballad, so nice and beautiful
The best is the beauty of their vocal harmonies, very soft at the whisper level but at a level of perfection, that explodes in a magic chorus
I have compared it to "Chiquitita" (1979) because both songs have similarities and contrasts
Both have the title in Spanish, and was recorded in spanish too (to the album in spanish "Gracias por la Música" In 1980)
Both are pop ballads with an initial verse sung alone and from the second chorus in duet, with a very catchy and popular chorus (in my country Argentina are songs that we would sing in a circle of friends, because we all know their lyrics)
The two videos show the contrast of fire and snow, night and day
They were both very most worldwide successful, only behind "Dancing Queen"
ABBA had already recorded "Dancing Queen" and it came from the success of "Mamma Mía"
It was the manager who convinced them to record "Fernando" so as not to repeat the style
(Frida had done it before in 1975 on her solo album in Swedish and it was a success, but with lyrics of a lovesong, and these to ABBA is a friendship story about mexican soldiers)
The manager was right and everything was a success, one after another in that year 1976,
with three singles #1 consecutives in UK
Mamma Mía (2 weeks)
Fernando (4 weeks)
Dancing Queen (6 weeks)
In addition, this variety of options had different results in each country.
"Fernando" was a colossal success in Australia (14 weeks at #1 surpassed the "Hey Jude" mark) and 7 weeks at #1 in Germany
"Dancing Queen" was 14 weeks #1 in Sweden and 6 weeks #1 in the U.K.and 8 weeks #1 in Australia
Both were #1 in the U.S. but in various rankings: "Dancing Queen" on the Billboard and
"Fernando" on Adult Contemporary
The official video of "Fernando" was filmed in February 1976, with Dancing Queen the next day
in these Official Video you could see:
Bjorn & Benny, both in guitars
Frida & Agnetha confronted both in frontal and profile images (repeating "Mamma Mia" technique used) premiering her gypsy style dress
and a last comparation
"Fernando" (1976) is first ABBA single with Frida in lead voice, and recorded in her solo album in Swedish (released before ABBA)
as "S.O.S." (1975) is first ABBA single with Agnetha in lead voice, and recorded in her solo album in Swedish (released after ABBA)
Thanks so much for these video and reaction
I wish you a great weekend
See you in the next
My best regards from

Another comment
I see in your ABBA playlist six videos
(seven with these):
S.O.S.
Mamma Mia
Fernando
Knowing me knowing you
Take a chance on me
Chiquitita
Gimme gimme gimme (a man after mudnight)
A new suggestion could be
"Waterloo" (1974)
the live perfomance at Eurovisión 1974
when ABBA begin your worldwide fame
This song is about the freedom fighters of the Spanish civil war when many fought bravely and died...as well as people from all over the world to fight by their sides
Not exactly
Is a fiction story about the mexican soldiers
No, it's not. It's allusions to the Mexican Revolution and the American-Mexican War ('we crossed the Rio Grande').
@@Lisa-MNot the Mexican-American war. Just the Mexican Revolution (1910-1920).
The freedom fighters were fighting all over Mexico trying to topple the government.
They often got pushed over Rio Grande to the US side, which was the land of the free.
Bjorn wrote the lyric after reading about the Mexican Revolution and a particular freedom fighter unit and it's leader.

Proof of Heaven? Listen to ABBA ❤
(New Sub)
Yeah... Great "campfire song"😅
The costumes pretend to be Mexican.
The song refers to a friend named Fernando who fought in the Mexican revolution...
This song was first recorded by Frida ❤️ on one of her solo albums... then she recorded it 🅰️🅱️🅱️🅰️.
The Spanish version was also tremendously successful here in Latin America.
Great react, Sheray...✌️!
See you soon
Love ❤ from Chile 🇨🇱🤗😘👍
I can't understand a word you're saying but ABBA rules
