ABBA - The King Has Lost His Crown (Voulez Vous album 1979) Switzerland tour

[MrPerry4me]

ABBA 4 EVER!

[AORMETALGORE]

i'd swear Agnetha's eyes can look u directly into your soul or somethin' :-)

[TheAccurate1]

OMG Don't the girls shine in this one. Great upload :)

[Ivonne0423]

I love ABBA. It´s great song. thanks for the vid.

[verkaforever]

Are they miming? It sounds just like it does on the album- just saying. Still, a great performance. Not one of their better songs in my opinion- I prefer their more light-hearted stuff, but everyone is entitled to their opinion.

[frapistat]

@verkaforever Hey, thanks for a great comment. Lip-sync is a marketing tool every performer uses. It has many advantages, but primarily to protect the integrity of a released recording. Can you imagine the effect on sales if the performer(s) weren't on their game that day?? What's your favorite ABBA song? :)

[verkaforever]

@frapistat I cannot choose a favourite ABBA song- I love nearly everything they released. "Money Money Money" is one of their best, and of course, "Dancing Queen". I also love their ballads- "Chiquitita" is one of my favourites. I recently discovered a series of six videos on here that had clips of nearly every song they ever recorded- about thirty seconds of each, and I found loads of great stuff they never released. i especially loved "Move On"- from ABBA the album.

[frapistat]

@verkaforever Perfect answer, I have yet to have anyone tell me what the greatest ABBA song is. Björn told of the inspiration for "Our Last Summer". He said he was in Paris for a summer job with a girlfriend at the time. And you speak of the unreleased...JLT would have been a killer hit, imo.

[verkaforever]

@frapistat JLT is OK. It has a nice melody and would probably have done well in the charts. I think "You Owe Me One", would have been a killer hit- it should have been released as a main single, instead of a B-Side (it was the B-Side of "Under Attack").

[ozzert]

@verkaforever

speaking of 'Under Attack': the guitar in JLT plays the melody from the 2nd line of UA's verse ("my resistance running low / I don't have the strategy")

frapistat, tnx for sharing, never saw such great quality! :)

[youtubalerts]

Wonderful, we are waiting for more of your superb works.

[1892ynwakop]

Fantastic. A lot of the songs ABBA did n't release on single are better than some of their hits.

[frapistat]

@1892ynwakop This song was the b-side of Gimme Gimme Gimme and then was put on their Voulez-Vous album. I agree with you, especially the ABBA performed "Just Like That" or JLT. Thanks for a great comment.

[5julia10]

[Silverbirch4444]

ABBA at their very best. At the height of their powers!

@fortinero45 Thanks, Carlos, glad you liked the song. It's so under rated.

[Hesam0000]

[Mateo7800]

An excellent quality Rob! I love the whole Swiss Tv Special.

[frapistat]

@Mateo7800 Many thanks, Artur. I agree that their Swiss tour produced some great shows.

[roxannehilton2]

An underated song indeed. But I still love it! I was actually singing this around my house today, lol.

And wow. Frida looks stunning! I've loved her voice on this track... and I like the begining a lot too! Thanks for sharing, great quality!

[frapistat]

@roxannehilton2 Hi Victoria. The begining is my favorite part too. The girls display such passion at the start. Caution: ABBA songs get in your head and you end up singing them around your house. hehe Thanks for a wonderful comment.

[fredrik7001]

Really good song. Thanks.

[frapistat]

@fredrik7001 Thanks Fredrik, I agree with you.

[SADL00KINM00N]

Definitely an underrated song, wonderful arrangement and harmonies from the girls here. Excellent quality too Rob!

Thank you so much for the share.

[frapistat]

@SADL00KINM00N Definitely underrated, Elin. I'm drawn to this song because of their harmony. Thanks for the visit and comment.

[MIESCHKI65]

You got it Rob, my alltime favourite of ABBA, thanks so much for sharing with me.

[frapistat]

@MIESCHKI65 Hallo Steffen. My favorite too. I think I'm drawn in by Agnetha's passion at 0:20. They were at their best in this show. Thanks for the great comment.

[soloABBA2]

Hello Rob, I love this performance, many thanks for sharing, thumbs up

[frapistat]

@soloABBA2 Hello Jesús. I agree,a great performance by ABBA. Congratulations to Spain for a great performance and win. Thanks for stopping by.

[oaksyboy44]

@frapistat Wow Rob,this is the best quality video that i have seen for this great song.

Big thumbs up and fav :)

[frapistat]

@oaksyboy44 Many thanks, John. ABBA's Voulez Vous album is loaded with hit after hit. It's my favorite and so is this song.

[Unklebillybob]

Rob, thanks, again for sharing. Your quality work is appreciated, by all of us.

Bill

[frapistat]

@Unklebillybob Thank you, Bill, I thought this show was amazing and must be shared. The girls are awesome together, a sound like no other.

[songsungu]

So Sweet, right in the midst of the fame. Here is a great example of ABBA's depth. Thank you

[frapistat]

@songsungu Thanks Christian, many great sounds from this group and memories!

[abbashalom62]

Oh how I love the way Frida gently starts singing about this "arrogant guy" who lost his love and then Boom, Agnetha joins in and.......Full on attack! So well done!

The quality and clarity of this vid makes the Abba ladies even more beautiful!

5's+fav....

[frapistat]

@abbashalom62 Yes, Marie, it is the ultimate gloat song. haha Frida, ever so softly, lays the ground work; and then at 0:52, they're out of the gates. I think it is an underrated song. Thanks for the great comment and visit.

[TheAnniebab]

Love the clarity of this video, it's astonishing. The girls are even better than usual in the way that they interpret this song. Cheers from Annie

[frapistat]

@TheAnniebab Hello Annie, so good to hear from you. The girls are at their best here, astonishing indeed. ABBAWORLD is in Melourne, do you have plans to attend?

[TheAnniebab]

@frapistat Hi there, I went to Melbourne on 19th June, for the weekend ,especially to see ABBAWORLD. My daughter whom I took to see ABBA when they came to Australia in 1977, (she was 4 yrs old----now 38) took me. We stayed there for hours. It was even better than I expected & she enjoyed it very much. I'm going to write to all my pals on U-Tube , but have been slack. Will do it soon-----Annie.

[DrSheerFolly]

i won't even answer the question, Rob, it's a given !!! this has to be one of the nicest vids of this song i have seen, excellent work. having to wait a while for a share from u was worth it, a fav and thumbs up, thnx !!

[frapistat]

@DrSheerFolly Thanks Harold, I think it turned out pretty good, despite me using a deck stretcher on it. LOL ;)

[NannaBella1]

Thank you Rob love both girls Brenda

[frapistat]

@NannaBella1 Thank you Brenda. I appreciate you visiting and commenting.

[oaksyboy44]

Great post Rob!

[frapistat]

@oaksyboy44 Hi John. YT didn't notify me you had made a comment here. The girls look amazing in this show. Thanks for stopping by, good to hear from you. Have a great weekend as well.

[seabee121usa]

[tatranka233]

[Grandpaw2511]

Howdy Rob, Loved the girls in those tight black outfits. Thanks for the great posting. Lenny

[frapistat]

@Grandpaw2511  You and I must think alike, Lenny, because that's the first thing I picked up on too. I think it was spray paint. hehe Thanks for stopping by.

[2Shaymcn]

Excellent job Rob !, love Frida's husky voice here and Agnetha never looked more beautiful Thank you for the HQ !

[frapistat]

@2Shaymcn Both the girls are jaw dropping beautiful. Thanks Shay, how’s the progress on the vaccine for Fältskog fever coming along. If we start getting too much more HQ... there's going to be an epidemic.

[pepeenyt]

Thank you Rob for sharing this classic wit this excellent quality

Greetings Pepe

[frapistat]

@pepeenyt Hola Pepe! Gracias for the kind comment. Glad you liked the show.

[frapistat]

@941jes  Hi Jim, thanks for stopping by, glad you enjoyed the post.

[TheMauvetys]

An underated song!

Merci for this great HQ :)

[frapistat]

@TheMauvetys It's so good to hear from you, Marie. I agree with you, the song is underrated, especially when one considers Frida's amazing voice in song. Merci for your comment and visit.

[ji61m]

I agree totally with Bill here Rob, it's great to finally be seeing these clearly these days.

[frapistat]

@ji61m This is such an underrated song, Jim. To hear Frida's velvet voice showcased like this is awesome. I really liked this performance. Could the girls look better?

[vintagerosenz]

Bjorn eyed aggies butt at the beginning when she turned lol

[frapistat]

@vintagerosenz Agnetha was known for her commanding presence. Australia even gave her an award for that feature. lol

[Mrroydoncrossing]

Excellent upload Rob, great that we are now seeing many of these performances 'clearly' now instead of the blurry images we are all familiar with!!

[frapistat]

@Mrroydoncrossing Hi Bill. If Universal/Polar/Mono would just realize this is the greatest marketing tool since the beginning of time. It's free and thousands of drones around the world advertise for their music sales. Stop biting the hand that feeds you. What else would they do with these videos, use them as door stops?

[Mrroydoncrossing]

@frapistat The market would not exist but for the many who circulated the dodgy copies which is gradually forcing Polar and others to re-master and re-release so many. They are just Luddites and eventually will be removed from the food chain altogether-if they seriously wanted Youtube to go then it would have happened by now-a few high profile private prosecutions would have frightened most off as would an injunction against Youtube (which failed!!)

[cessnaace]

Great stuff! Agnetha looks lovely as ever. Thanks for the upload. Saved to 'Music Videos 2' playlist.

STAY AWESOME! :)

[frapistat]

@cessnaace Thanks Mark, glad you liked the upload.

[cessnaace]

@frapistat I could I not like it? It's ABBA. :)

STAY AWESOME! :)
