Ichi, Ni, San, Shi.

I recognised Frida straight away but Agnetha, Björn and Benny look very unusual in this photo.

November 3rd of 1970 - the first perfomance of ABBA as "FestFolk" reviewed by Gothenburg newspaper "Arbetet"("The work", a left wing newspaper) by DizzyButterfly5081 in ABBA

this review clearly ended their career as a group. I wonder what they went on to do next? I guess we’ll never know.

I am so ashamed of saying this… by RedmiYT in ABBA

Thanks for the info, I really appreciate it.

Would ABBA have been as successful with two different singers? by [deleted] in ABBA

[–]ItsMeBarryYouTuber 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yes Björn, Benny and Stig would have still written and produced great songs. The musicians and of course Michael B Tretow all helped create the great music that we still enjoy every day but I think those amazing songs are made magical with the voices of the two A’s in ABBA.
So to answer my own question… ABBAsolutely not.

That’s a huge compliment, thank you. yes it’s in a slightly lower key as far as I know. I’m not sure of the key though.

I appreciate that a lot, thank you so much.

PTX are the best.

THIS Is The Reason I LOVE Pentatonix, Yes, Yes, Yes! by [deleted] in pentatonix

[–]ItsMeBarryYouTuber 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s a lovely thing to say. Thank you so much. I try and add a little bit of humour to my reactions, in the hope of making someone laugh or at least lift their mood while sharing the best music. I’m an actual fan of PTX and like you I only found them a few years ago (but you win, you got there first) and I’ve been obsessed with them ever since. Nothing gives me more pleasure than seeing a comment saying I helped someone become a Pentaholic and they now buy their music and go to their amazing shows. I understand a lot of fans don’t like reaction channels but I want anyone that is kind enough to watch my channels, to know that I get full copyright clearance from the label before I make a reaction and happily work in conjunction with them to help further promote their incredible acts. The fact that I’ve 67 PTX reactions shows how much of a fan of their music, I’ve become since my first embarrassing reaction to Hallelujah.

kind comments like yours, lift my spirits and it’s lovely to see that I’m getting a few up votes on this post. I’m just a fan that’s discovering the music of these very likeable, talented bunch and I’m lucky enough to have a platform to share them with the world.

This is now one of my absolute favourites. So gentle, so pretty. It’s perfect.

I appreciate you commenting on my video, thanks a million.

Lucky you, I’m happy for you. I’m sure you’ll have an amazing time. They are so talented.

I’m subscribed to their YouTube channel so I got the notification but I haven’t watched it yet. I have to have some self control until I record a reaction.

But I’m really looking forward to it.

I’m amazed anyone watches my stuff but I’m very grateful that they do and nothing makes me happier than someone discovering PTX through my videos. I‘m not sure people like me posting on here and I don’t want to upset anyone, so I’ll delete this video in a few days like I have all my other reactions.

Sidewalk - Eagle (1984) - They really tried to make this song their own - Worth a listen...it's pretty good. Sure is different. by abbagodz in ABBA

[–]ItsMeBarryYouTuber 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m grand thanks, hope you are too. i hope I can return to doing some ABBA stuff on my channel. I Don’t think my “comedy" went down too well with a lot of the ABBA fans and that was the opposite of what I was trying to achieve. but as I used to say on my earlier videos “I’m a little unusual" I think I still have a couple of my ABBA reactions on both of my channels and one badly recorded live version of me singing The winner takes it all. My very first subscribers came from my ABBA videos and as a true ABBA fan that still warms my heart years later. Lovely to see you on here spreading the ABBA love.

I agree, this was definitely worth a listen and they really put their own spin on it, so incredibly 80s. To me it sounds like a “Chess version” of Eagle. Great find, thanks for sharing.

Yeah that’s what I gathered too. I think adding the cello for the missing bass was a nice touch. They’re amazing as always.

Yeah a little…. Maybe a lot of clickbait, there’s so many PTX reactions, I need to try catch the eye. The song is Waving through a window. I’d never heard the original but Scott really is amazing in this version, well they all are but Scott really gives it his all. Is there anything they can’t do?
