    Hi all welcome back to another video Dereck Reacts back at it again! This time around we take a look at another round of ABBA concluding the Super Trooper album with "Our Last Summer." Frida takes the lead on this song and all the creative juices come into play for ABBA. Killer guitar solo interlude and more! See my reaction now.

      If you think another ABBA album is better than Super Trouper, well we won't fall out about it, because they never released a duffer! 😁

    It's such exceptional song-writing but the girls are incredible singers too. Not only their beautiful voices but the clever little touches that keep the song fresh and interesting. They made a habit of slightly changing some part of the chorus in songs to heighten the drama. After the guitar solo, at 6:38, she stretches out the words 'see it all' to set up that finale to the song.

    🧡 ABBA !
    I danced so many hours to so many ABBA songs in the day. Of course, you're too young to have experienced that great era. If I could take you back there, you'd have a ball.
    The group should never have stopped performing. Encouraged to reunite, they felt they could never sound the same again. Their fans didn't agree and encouraged them through the years. ABBA's reuniting was delayed due to the pandemic but five new tracks are due to be released this year. Hallelujah! I cannot wait to relive the golden days again of ABBA on tour. There was no other group like them.
    Thanks for this reaction. I'll check it out to see if you've offered any other reactions to ABBA. If not, please do. You seem to know a great deal about them.
    Until next time....
    For the love of music - Peace.
    P.S. I just checked. You are a true ABBA fan. And why not? You have them featured behind you. Now if you'll excuse me, I have some Dereck Reacts to ABBA uploads to get to.

    Our Last Summer & Me And I are my favourites from Super Trouper album.
    I love that Frida just sang the simple melody and that she didn't go off on a tangent of ott vocal cause this song actually tells a story & I think that Frida appreciated that she had to stick to the main melody with perfect diction, I think its important that listener reads the lyric sheet also while song is playing to follow the story
    I like to think that Fridas love interest in this track was a serious romance, not just a fling & that Frida was genuinely fond and in love with the featured love interest at some stage, cause theres such warmth and special happy memory remembering their last summer together I thought that the Paris landmark references was brilliant done also. I think that Our Last Summer is right up there as one of the best ABBA album tracks. Incredible tune I've always loved it. Our Last Summer features heavily also in Mama Mia movie.
    PS oyeah regarding that interlude, I thought that the interlude was just perfect length, any longer and it unquestionably would've outstayed its welcome, ah ....I'd even go as far as to say that a good few seconds could've been shaved off it to be honest , but had it been any longer, I feel that guitar solo would've ruined the tune.

    "Our last summer" is a song that has grown for me. It was never one of my favorites, but I'm starting to think it's one of their better songs from this era. Especially the story it tells is great (why it also worked so great to base one of the characters, Harry, in the musical Mamma Mia! on this song).
    One "odd bird" I would really liketo hear your opinion of is "Suzy-Hang-Around", the only ABBA song with Benny on lead vocals.
    Other reactions I would love is "Summer night city" live on Wembley. And the "Two for the price of one - live 1981" (Abba's last live perfomance).
    Thanks for all our great reactions, by the way. I like your honesty and as a big ABBA/Björn&Benny-fan it's very refreshing to hear your opinions about their great songs! Please keep them coming! :-)

    Frida's voice is sublime in this one and that guitar solo! You should also do a reaction to ABBA's Undeleted, it is actually a medley of songs that were either scrapped, not finished or early versions of finished songs, it is A LOT of fun! You also get an idea of how they worked on things, trying them out in different styles, this medley also includes JUST LIKE THAT, which ABBA fans have begged to have released... this is all they offered the fans... czcams.com/video/NUfAzxBKvLA/video.html

    Funny how you wanted the guitar interlude to last longer, Benny and Björn found it ‘so good’ that they ultimately reused it, extending it in what would become ‘Anthem’ from their musical Chess. A showstopper! You should definitely check it out

    It's ok to be a little greedy :-) I adore this song, and Frida's vocals are amazing. It's quite a fan favorite, and some of the ABBA members have also mentioned it as a favorite. However, it would be nice if someone put together a better video - not exaactly the most flattering pictures of the fab four!

    Your reaction videos are among the best on CZcams because you actually react and analyze the songs instead of just listening to it and the video is over. By the way, have you missed ABBA's I do, I do, I do, I do?
    Fun fact about Our Last Summer at the Wiki page of the Chess musicial:
    Some of the songs on the resulting album contained elements of music Andersson and Ulvaeus had previously written for ABBA. For example, the chorus of "I Know Him So Well" was based on the chorus of "I Am An A", a song from their 1977 tour,[9] while the chorus of "Anthem" used the chord structures from the guitar solo from their 1980 ABBA song "Our Last Summer".
    If you haven't heard our swedish pride Tommy Körberg sing before you should really take a listen to Anthem (CZcams reaction or not) :

    You really have to watch the movie "Mamma Mia" from 2008. It's based on the musical of the same name, I'm sure you've heard of it. This is one of the songs featured, sang by Amanda Seyfried, Pierce Brosnan, Colin Firth and Stellan Skarsgård. 🥰

    Sí, sí, sí...ABBA, por esta España fue toda una sensación, en todas sus versiones y presentaciones que hicieron aquí, vinieron muchísimas veces y todo eran éxitos y para mí me quedo con este tema, que no se oía tanto en las radios, y con otro: que sí que fue un bombazo como: " va todo al ganador". Por cierto cuando quieras junto a tu pareja invitados a ver el musical Mamá Mía..dedicado a las obras de ABBA...ay qué ganas de poder volver a asistir a musicales y grandes conciertos.
    Gracias y abrazo🎉🤗🎉🤗🎉🤗

  • @dreasbn
    @dreasbn Před 3 lety +2

    Back then I was desperately hoping it would be the last single release off the album but for whatever reason they only did two proper single releases from Super Trouper. It might have something to do with them not wanting to do much promo in 1981 after Benny a Frida separated bitterly early that year shortly after the album had been released. They only did the Dick Cavett special with some rare splendid live performances on tv in April 1981.. If it wasn’t for their private issues I am sure this one and Lay All Your Love On Me would have been properly promoted with video as a single (LAYLOM had at least been released as a 12“ only after it hit the clubs in the US but no promo at all). If it wasn’t for the arrangement and rock interlude it would be just a surgery sentimental pop song, but the contrast shifts the song up to pure pop perfection. No wonder it’s one of the few album tracks that made into the Musical Mamma Mia.

    Flashback central - a good thing! One of ABBA's "tricks" - writing happy songs but in a minor key. "Voulez Vous"?

  • @rayjennings3637
    @rayjennings3637 Před 2 lety +5

    Anything that Anni-Frid sings has an ethereal quality to it because she has a fuller and more sensual voice than Agnetha. I think that ABBA is becoming more appreciated as time passes because of the meaning in all their lyrics and the complex arrangements which you rarely hear these days.
    With your talking about musicians carrying around a phrase in their mind until they find a place to use it, please take a watch of this upload from Rick Beato with him talking to a great session guitarist Tim Pierce czcams.com/video/ubGOWfLFniw/video.html

    3:25 One of best part is Benny's synth/keyboard riff. Typical SuperTrouper-record style song; Frida lead, Agnetha dominates in chorus, Benny's GX-1 synthesizer heard like in 'Me and I' 'Andante Andante' and in' Lay all Your..' with exception Agnetha and F change places.
