ABBA : Gimme Gimme Gimme (Live Stockholm '81)

[JimColyer]

GIMME! GIMME! GIMME! (A MAN AFTER MIDNIGHT) - Desire for action and the fear of being left out. She laments the gap between her life and the lives of movie stars. Movie stars appear in Honey Honey, DreamWorld and Gimme! Gimme! Gimme! Our preoccupation is with their glamorous lives.

[LadyaLL96]

The sad thing is Björn watched her through the whole performance

[SuperDrJeckyl]

I can tell Agnetha isn't totally into performing here.

She always, always, always looked into the camera before. She's being professional, but you can tell she's through with ABBA and the dumbest man in the world, Bjorn.

Come here, baby doll Agnetha. I'll take care of you.

[SuperDrJeckyl]

Even though they looked sort of stiff at times, Agnetha turns on the sex appeal yet again and turns in a great performance. She is unbelievable, the most beautiful woman ever.

[MurakamiTenshi]

So THIS is where Madonna got the tune for Hung Up from

[anonymusum]

@MurakamiTenshi

Please don´t remind me of that crap

[jaycee1601]

ABBA every time !

[bagabooga]

Vilken sexig sång framförd av sexiga kvinnor! Jag kunde bara kyssa deras läppar för evigt ......

[chewbear22]

Happy Birthday Agnetha, April 5th..

[huey1111]

[LoveAnimals83]

[the1trueseed]

[CondeFombrilac]

[jsra54]

[bernidamm]

the girls have too much make-up

[400SA]

Very conservative outfits here, doesn't really fit this energetic song! Great job anyway though!

[tihodd]

ABBA for ever.

[carpenterskaren]

beautiful

[itsmylov1]

I Like This Song The Song Is Rocking Dashing And Splashing By The Way Which Man After The Midnight To Chase The Shadows Away! Hum

[Teaser318]

They all look rather bored here. How close to their break-up was this show?

[ywba]

This is from April '81, the breakup December '82.

[LaPiccolaWale]

beautiful abba !!!!!!!!

[scrubinc]

You can just hear where it fades out into Summer Night City - one of their most-underrated classics - the two songs are awesome pieces of disco pop!

[Stevend2be]

Awesome song !!!

Lot's of people are wanting a man after midnight...so it's very recognisable.

[Love4Sverige]

Hahahaa Elin, you are right...what would you choose?;P Love this version, haven't seen the video before...as I see there is alot I haven't seen! Thanks Shay for posting this:)

[djjun99]

What a fine tune have this song,Shay! The organ in the beginning is fantastic! An enthusiastic introdution, too! Thanks for the lyrics and post!

[SadLookinMoon]

Gimme ABBA or a man after midnight.. ohh tough choice :)

thanks for posting Shay, the girls sound great in this clip!

[2Shaymcn]

Sing this one loud enough Elin, and your Prince Charming may hear, hehe

Turn you treble down a bit I think I cranked it up too much

[SadLookinMoon]

lol Shay I might take your word for it and I try that one of these nights..! :)

[ji61m]

This is great Shay. You're keeping the "Live" vib going strong! I'm gonna do another one this weekend, I just wish their live selection was bigger! Oh the things one could do with a live version of say..."Man"!

[2Shaymcn]

They were getting better and better live towrds the end with a more relaxed, confidance

If only Agnetha would have done some more live material! Keep the live action going my friend!

[roydoncrossing]

There is not enough Kleenex produced to cope with the emotions that live versions of "Man",Slipping thru my fingers and The angels cry" would evoke-a Tsunami would probably follow!

[2Shaymcn]

Know what you mean Bill,sounds like an emotional rollercoaster with those songs

Maybe there is hope she will sing live again even in a small, no fuss way, somewhere somehow!

[roydoncrossing]

My house would be good lol

[roydoncrossing]

Good start to the morning Shay!!

"Short and sweet"!!!!

Thanks for sharing

[2Shaymcn]

short but very sweet! Bill, Thanks,wish they had done a longer version

[roydoncrossing]

A longer career would have been good,too

[mauvetys]

This is one of the first songs of Abba that i heard, my first "coup de foudre" musical. I never seen this short performance before. Thanks, You have some rare treasure :)

[2Shaymcn]

'Love at first sight' M,I can see why,the intro hooks you immediately, Madonna literally begged B & B to use that sample on her track.

[curefreak]

@2Shaymcn and she was smart to get it to.
