Abba - She's My Kind Of Girl

[lukasha0]

This sounds like Beatles to me...

[SafeSocks]

very strong Beatles influence - never heard it before, it's great!

[jjcar442]

Agnetha is My Kind Of Girl

[wawa96loveabba]

First song... 

[karilwyn1959]

I bet her hubby was so sad when he lost her love.What in the world would have made him make such a mistake, especially when they had 2 kids together. I always wonder why they all 4 broke up like they did. I miss this group more than any other band because they always made me happy when I heard their music. Amazing ABBA, "My Kind Of Band"

[Qulopuaa]

@karilwyn1959 If you hear Burning my bridges(undeled abba) you understand the relation and then hear what Agneta says at 0.20 in this video v=gvk-sC5sULE and 3rd.Björn did fell in love with the babysitter and then it was over

[karilwyn1959]

@Qulopuaa I had never heard this before. All I heard was that she was wanting to be more of a full time mommy, less ABBA...so Bjorn thought that a nanny was the answer to this problem...because this way she could have the kids with her as they worked and he thought that would make her happy. My goodness! So did HE pick the nanny I wonder? Still I say what a fool he was to do such a thing and lose so very much. So sad.

[angeloradox]

superrrr song!!!!!!!!

[TheDeadlyDelilah]

Haha! This is great!

[sundimmer]

I had a picture of ABBA ob my bedroom wall. All were wrapped in tin foil. Especially Agnetha Falstok who I had many dreams about.

[pawelch5]

i like the Ring Ring album. All the songs remind me of the early Beatles :) especially "She's My Kind Of Girl" for some reason.

[Aliendear]

Agnetha is candy.

[Rhiabbaco]

This song demostrates everyone that abba were very very versatile. Many people hear "abba" and only think disco "dancing queen" "mamma mia" "take a chance" or "waterloo". Abba is so much more than this.

[lepton421]

Agnetha , IS MY KIND OF GIRL. SHE IS AN ANGEL>

Thanks John.

[zozox24]

its so good! usually frida and agnetha sing better than benny and bjoern, but this song is much better!

[roliko10]

i really like this song. i like how it starts off and i think its a very enjoyable song to listen to. my only question is where did music like this go? i mean this is quality music, not like some of the things we have today. music requires talent, a good melody, and actual singing, which is a quality that music today lacks, well some of it anyway. i wish real music would come back! i miss the good old days.....

[pjusiii]

Beautiful song!

[Simmone164]

This is agreat song

[crushmii]

Wonderful song!

[darkmarkrammstein]

thanks for the little story.

[ZLUGGO]

Agnetha was lovely!

[jobreton]

Sounds like The Turtles

[LareQ]

Hey you're right!!! "Me and you, and you an me"

It's just the 70's style =)

[bruno270787]

I Love All ABBA's Songs This Too

[abbafanglosuk]

Yes even the very early songs they did like this one which was without the girls are great. They set very high release standards and never made anything poor. This was the song that proved to Benny and Bjorn that they could be successful songwriters on the international market, after it was a big hit in Japan!

[davidngog2209]

I´ve Been Losing this video.

[abbafanglosuk]

Yes there was a period of many months when UMG made an unwarranted claim on this video, and limited its distribution to major countries only - thus excluding yours. But now they've decided this video can be seen worldwide again, and they put adverts alongside it instead. The song came trom my Ring Ring cd that I bought. It was published by Polar music of Stockholm, so there was very little justication to the UMG claim!

[AllAboutLOVEatYuToob]

sounds like a 60s song!

i LOVE it!

LOL

[abbafanglosuk]

This song was actually recorded in November 1969 by Benny and Bjorn only and released as a single in March 1970 - so you're right!

[karilwyn1959]

@jonaspollard  I know that was said a year or more ago...but I just had to say how sweet this was.

[HesseJamez]

sounds a bit like beatles

[MerylsLove]

Yes that what I thought! But it was the beginning of ABBA so the "normal" music was like that I think =)

[Forsure3333]

The singing is very similar to the one in Bus Stop by The Hollies.

Compare it:

watch?v=It75wQ0JypA

[abbafanglosuk]

Ok I've compared them by alternating between them and the song styles are similar - though I detect that the 2 Swedish guys sing at a deeper level than the more harmonic Hollies, and come across a bit clearer!

[goddessbrightlight]

This is an UNKNOWN beauty. Kinda corny in comparison to todays music, but hey... human nature is the same and our basic feelings haven't changed over time. Gr8 find from the archives!

[headphone355]

In addition, this song was re-released on the international version of the "Ring, Ring" album in 1973, and on the flipside of ABBA's third single- and now I've forgotten what it was! Does anyone know?

[abbafanglosuk]

It was on the flip side of the English single version of the Ring Ring!

[any2267]

La gente tambien les gustaba frida mucho pues ella era muy linda,sensual y bailando se llevaba la medalla,solo que agneta hace mas solos pero frida es espectacular,y parece tener muy buen carisma.

[Maximoo45]

Agnetha también baila muy bién, y en cuanto a carisma, ella tiene el suyo propio. Es posible que no sea tan expresiva como Frida, pero Agnetha solo con su mirada llena de brillo y su sonrisa arrebatadora bastaba para seducir y enamorar a cualquiera.

[Jun2013]

Björn & Benny ! without "AA" :-) ;-P

[MarieAddison]

Yeah! without AA jiji xD

[wcsu1975]

[abbafanglosuk]

That's very clever! I agree, Agnetha's a sexy kitten!

[jeanpaulbuchku]

Awesome! I haven't heard this song in years! One of my all time favorites! Pure melody. Thanks for the story behind the song and the ABBA's reason for writing songs in English. I wonder if that Japanese publisher knew how much lives he was touching by his decision. I guess ABBA would have decided to go international some other way - they were so great.

[abbafanglosuk]

Yes Abba made a lot of uniquely tuneful songs like this one, which made them stand out from other groups! I like to give the story behind every song and performance that I do a vid for to set the scene for the viewer. Abba were driven to international success by their ambitious manager Stig Anderson. They soon found it by winning Eurovision with Waterloo in 1974. The Japanese publisher was definitely instrumental in getting Abba started, by confirming they were capable of international success.

[abbaMANQUEZ]

one flase move of your legs agnetha and i'll see heaven.. hehe.. jeje..

[abbafanglosuk]

Naughty boy!

[Woopee]

You will see heaven and smell Surströmming. But the good kind.

[abbaMANQUEZ]

LOL... agree with you!

[edflintlaw]

I love the background story, John. Where did you find the information? I may have it in my collection, but I don't remember reading it before.

[abbafanglosuk]

My daughter Helen bought me "Abba The Book (2007)" for xmas Ed. Its full of info like this, charting their history.

[AbbaChick]

really? Who wrote that book, I'll to see if I can get it.

[abbafanglosuk]

Its by Jean-Marie Potiez, Helen. I saw a copy in town on Saturday on offer for a bargain £2. I could get it if you want, if its still there next Saturday.

[cardellacole1]

shes looking well beautiful here lovely curves, id like to taste the sugar on those lips john excelent pick

[abbafanglosuk]

It'd quite a provocative pose Bill. The skirt is pretty short too!

[fridnetha]

This picture is my fantasy every night.LOL

[abbafanglosuk]

I'm not surprised Marielle. Every single night?

[matilda1719]

I like This Picture,and the song its nice.

[abbafanglosuk]

Its a Beatles type song Matilda, I guess they were influenced by them at that time. Agnetha certainly raises temperatures in this interesting pose.
