a great blast from the past, lots of great memories from that time, but your dopey comments spoil it, why don't you just shut the fuck up and enjoy the music.
ABBA are as good as the new seekers and the new seekers are as good as ABBA, they are both one of my fav bands along with the beatles so stop complianing and appreiciate it
Ok yall- being an ABBA fan- I can tell you that they are singing with the New Seekers in this version. Any ABBA fan recognizes Agnetha, and AnaFrid's voices. The video here is not of the actual performance. I think it was a German television special from the early 70's when they all performed this together.
But try not to drink too much soft drink.. American drink soft as water. They need health are reform. Will that help?? Stop drink too much soft drink, even though this song is so beautiful.
Abba never sang this song, its totally the new seekers... They are just clips of abba singing a different song in a different show........ Its just that Tibbsy matched the clip so well with the seekers clip that it looks like they are singing it, but not so.I know Abbas and the new seekers work very well... I grew up singing there songs in lots of shows and concerts. All the best.
The New Seekers did the first Coca Cola song and it flopped. They stuck with the song and rewrote it slightly. The New Seekers could not go to Rome to film the add, so a bunch of US sessions singers sang the vocals that went out on the add. This is the rewritten version for a single release. Coca Cola knew it would be associated with the add.
I read what I wrote which was wrong. The New Seekers did the Coca Cola TV add song. The Hillside Singers did the non-brand version first as the New Seekers were busy. Coca Cola wanted the song out ASAP to run with the successful TV ad
@pgrimstead There is absolutely no reliable source that can confirm this figure. It is just one more of those crazy statements with no confirmation at all. Sorry to disappoint you.
The New Seekers are exceptional group with genuine talents and colorful voices. They are especially immortalized in one album 'Free To Be You and Me'. I would be encouraged to see them in concert, hopefully in the Bay Area.

I think you'll find that the New Seekers were a British group singing a British song.

How can anyone find the basis to compare the New Seekers and ABBA? The former wanted to teach the world to sing, the latter did.
