Talking Does your mother know?

Another example of why the 1970s were so much fun. No pre-recorded tracks, no autotune, no fake background vocals. So much talent on this stage. This is fun for a bunch of reasons: The ABBA girls singing back up, the costumes, the intense guitar jam at the end, the energy on stage, and it even gets a bit sexual with the girls on their knees in front of the guitarist stroking his legs with their mouths wide open. Fun song too. A hot girl chasing a guy but she is too young for him. He says they can dance and hang out but he is not going to take a chance having sex with her. Today these women would have breast implants and so many other fake parts. They were naturally beautiful imperfect teeth and all. And boy can they sing!!!!!!

ABBA did not like to tour. I think they only did one tour of the states with only like 12 dates. They were couples and wanted to stay home and raise families. This is why they were so pioneer with their videos in the 1970s. It was a way to promote their music without going on the road. In 2000 a tour promoter offered ABBA 1 Billion dollars for 100 world concerts and they declined.

Don't know about Benny and Frida but Agnetha didn't like to tour, while Bjorn did. Or at least he didn't have a problem about touring, and that was one of the reasons of their divorce. I watched this doc years ago where he said Agnetha started to complain about touring when they had children. Bjorn used to answer her But we have a nanny. The rest is history.



I love most of their singles but my favorite is Winner Takes It All.
