Awesome thanks for that I think regarding Deluxe Edition of A they should have included all her video clips she released for this Album and had some remixes on the CD especially I Was A Flower Instrumental version.

We need Agnetha to release an official DVD of her work

Can't stop smiling every time I watch this - even with the little mistakes - it really is delightful !  |

I overdubbed original vocal with vocal from the remix CD,a kind of hybrid, works well I think.

Very sweet performance of Agnetha singing a song she wrote for her Swedish album "Elva kvinnor i ett hus" in the midst of Abba's fame. Look especially at about 3:09 where she looks skyward and seems a bit emotional.

Lovely - with this nice little touch of Swedish ompa-bumpa that ABBA never really nailed.

Nice video MWilson, she seemed so happy and relaxed being the "little star" during that performance.  ) |

One of my favourite Agnetha leads is 'One Of Us', and in particular the introduction. So I was really pleased to come across Fafner's 'Prominent Vocals' version, which isolates the centre stage of the audio track. The note at 19 seconds is almost superhuman. It sounds like it is going to burst out of the speakers.

I'm glad that you liked it I remember applying "fake stereo" to Agnetha's voice, so it has more presence than in the regular mix, and it isn't in the dead center. |

To explain why the end of IITYECYM is a favourite video moment, it's first necessary to watch the last few bars of SWID. A truly beautiful song, but Agnetha seems to be in a dark place by the the end of it  The video to IITYECYM appears to be shaping up for a similarly painful ending.. but then a smile breaks out instead; a laugh even |

These clips are from my favourite 'A' interview. It's clear (from remarks made about his family's love of ABBA) that Agnetha is old enough to be the nervous interviewer's mum or even grandma. Nevertheless, he seems completely smitten. Here Agnetha asks him if she looks mysterious and he says 'when I look in your eyes, yes': Here Agnetha gives him a look that I think I last saw in the train on the TDBYC video! : And here he ends by saying with unmistakable sincerity 'you still look amazing' and she gives a typically modest reply. btw just in case not everyone knows the technique, to skip to a specific YouTube moment you just add '&t=' to the end of the link, followed by the starting point in minutes and seconds, eg: &t=3m37s |

Having lots of time on your hands, it seems, doing documentaries half a century ago. Very nice. Agnetha's coat is just right, I'd say.

Mother said she could sing before she could talk, and indeed Agnetha never seems to need to work too hard on her incredible gift. A couple of my favourite video moments to illustrate. Here she is asked about vocal exercises and says, with barely disguised derision, 'that's boring': And in the Skavlan interview when she says she had to take singing lessons before 'A' because she hadn't used her voice for a decade or so, the interviewer asks 'how many lessons did you take?' The audience thinks she is going to say 'twenty seven' or something, so everyone laughs when she says 'I took two': ( 'I took two' in Swedish sounds almost identical to English  ) |

I like in the first video where she reluctantly gives an example of the vocal exercise, then blurts out "it's very boring"

Leyton, who was filming Agnetha's interview for Chart Show TV, is a huge ABBA fan. But when he got the once-in-a-lifetime chance to record a quick greeting from her at the end of the session, he asked her to do it for his mate Steve rather than for himself. Now that's a true friend; I'm not sure that I would have been so altruistic! It was sweet of Agnetha to do it too.

Fafner and Monica have just posted pics of ABBA being presented with an award by Ad Visser, which reminded me that there's a video of it which I posted on a4e once. Any excuse to transfer more stuff over Here, Agnetha seems determined to give the shy interviewer a good kissing, whether he wants it or not I would love to know if there is a back story here (like a dare, or some sort of set-up, or maybe they were already old friends?), because Björn is right next to her and he looks a fair bit happier than I would be if my wife had just shown such enthusiasm
Isn't Agnetha also giving Ad a pretty devastating burst of 'TDBYC in the train' eye contact during the subsequent interview? |
