  • Yeah... you almost got me...But no... anyone that it is a fan of ABBA knows that that song is not of them... Anyway, only someone really stupid will though that this is the official video.. ahahaahah. But, never mind.. Nice work wit the montage. It's really great.

  • I love it !♥♥♥♥♥♥♥

  • The plane! The plane!

  • @AnonymousDiv0

    Lol....Stop being childish...lol.

  • great video my friend you did a great job with the arrangement

  • hahahaha...

  • OMG! First time for me hearing this and boy did they nail ABBA perfectly. Great song and very well done.

  • all these years I kept fantasizing it was ABBA singing. i'm glad i'm not the only one. great job on the audio-video synchronization!

  • They sound just like ABBA :)

  • greatest hits of all time

  • I like this song

  • Funnily enough I have this on 12" single (vinyl) - such an ABBA sound at the time, i loved it then and still do today!

  • The blonde lady, Julie lives in Surrey, my friend met her  there last week, lol!

  • Does anybody know where can I find this song's text??? - Tudja valaki, hogy merre találok dalszöveget ehhez a dalhoz???

  • Look for lyricsmode as a website and then type in Fantsay Island as a song title and up comes a choice of M People and Tight Fit - There you go

  • love da pictures abba is da best frida xoxoxoxoxox

  • omg it really sounds like abba only the girls i love it

  • What a lovely montage. "Fantasy Island" sounds like ABBA.

  • @kormoran78 Yeah, I thought "Fantasy Island" was an ABBA song the first few times I heard it...

  • magnifique clip!!!

  • Very creative. I never heard of this group in the USA.

  • you've never heard of ABBA.....? that's a first.

  • i think he means he never heard about Tight Fit in the USA, and not about Abba!!!

  • ohh i see

  • @ssshotgun No I mean I never heard of Tight Fit. Unfortunately their records were never released in the USA.

  • If I didn't know better I would think that the girls were frida and agnetha.

  • Thheee bboooaaatttttt, thhheeeeeee bbooooaatttttttttttttttttttt

  • You the man, Tibbsy - fair play to you for posting. I haven't heard this song since it was a hit - I was only nine.

  • Tibbsy, you are an evil pop genius.

  • Mwuhahahaha!!!

  • The chorus sounds like Rock me!

  • leemiddl , why is it "gay" as you put it?? This was around in my childhood along with all the lovely music from abba. All that comes from this is lovely warm memories

  • OMG! This is like my FAVOURITE song from childhood, and I thought I would never hear it again. Everything about it is perfect!

  • this song is so abba and so gay. could be a a gay anthem. thats why i love it ;)

  • My god could they sound any more like ABBA? Especially on the chorus. You'd swear it was Agneta & Annifrid if you didn't listen carefully. I remember when this song first came out. It still sounds good after all these years.

  • I spoke to Steve Grant in a Cafe in The Kings Road, London, last weekend. He isn't dead.

  • How do u know it woz Steve Grant from Tight Fit? Some ppl r adomant that he's dead and some ppl r adomant that he's still alive! I'm WELL confused!!

  • According to various sources on the internet, Steve Grant (Tight Fit front man) died aged 30 in 1990 ~ it would seem of HIV/AIDS.

    Very sad if true.

  • On which sites does it say that?

  • Sounds very much like ABBA, But ABBA would have sung it better! :D

  • True but I still like it for some reason!

  • wow!

  • chorus does sound like ABBA.kind of like DREAM WORLD .

  • the chorus reminds strongly of the one in "Lovelight"...

  • great job

  • Very good TIBBSY.Also enjoyed Abba connection fitting in with the song.

  • cool

  • mom loves this song lol

  • LoL, this song is like an ear worm! I can't get it out of my head

  • This is ABBA's Style!

  • Brilliant song! when I first heard it, I was convinced it was ABBA. Tight Fit have a good soundalike to ABBA.

  • The only reason I posted it was because apart from the verse it could be abba.

  • so camp and gorge!

  • what a tune, makes me think about becoming a gay man . sooooo camp :P

  • dont know what it is about this song but i send me way back...must of been the previous life..hehe

    yep its cool!!!!!!

  • That sounds exactly like ABBA. If I didn't know any better, I'd swear it really was them singing. I like how the verses sound like a Frida and BENNY duet!

  • "Fantasy Island" had missed out in the Dutch Eurovision selection, but when it was recorded by U.K. group Tight Fit, the song reached #3 in Ireland and became a hit all over Europe.

  • Numbers are for virgins keeping score.This is a very good song.

  • I Love this song

  • GREAT.

  • great song!

  • Excelente!!!

  • god this brings back memories!

  • nice one. its a song that sums up the optimism of the early 80's. love 80's music.

  • I remember this song from when I was on holiday in the UK in 1982. That course sure has ABBA written all over it and just goes to show you ABBA's influence on music then and even now!

  • Im sure the woman with the brown hair in Tight Fit married Pete Waterman.

  • He did.her name was Denise Gyngell, married her in 1991. She is the current & third Mrs waterman

  • Reminds me of a day at the theme park - Summer 1982

    I saw the family doctor with his own family eating ice cream and i thought " you utter swine, why are you not out saving lives" he cut me a strange look and ran toward the ferris wheel. The bastard!

  • Outstanding!

  • Excellent video - well done. I agree that this is very ABBAish - in fact, I thought it WAS them the first time I heard it!!!

  • this is a good song

  • nice trivia

  • LOL, did anyone notice that one of the tags for this video is "gay?" What's up with that?

  • you always do a great job, can you please do CRAZY WORLD... THANKS. Angela

  • There is a good one already on youtube if you want too look for it.

  • The clarity of the production and recording is GREAT here. I love the montage. Thank you. Happy days!

  • Dont tell anybody,lol.

  • Tibbsy, is very well see different things, and it sounds like it could be an Abba song, and i like the video too. Great job!!

  • Yeah, love it!! You did a great job!

  • Just a little trivia for you.

    I believe the original song was first sung in the Netherlands Song Festival 1982 with the hope of being put forward for the Eurovision Song Contest.

    The original can be found on YouTube under.

    NSF 1982 - Bonnie St. Claire - Fantasy island

  • Great Pop Song!

  • whaueeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

  • angel585 the song is by the pop band "tight fit" from the summer of 1982, the video of tight fot and abba are mixed here so the girls with the early 80s style are from tight fit and the boat jumping is the tight fit video so there they had a proper album out in late 1982 and there were othe songs on it,secret heart and im undecided all heavily electronic drum machined etc nothing like abba.

  • i dont think they sound like abba at all! theyu sound like "tight fit" abba never used the linn drum machine

    so they sound dancey...

  • Fantasy Island by Tight Fit. Never proclaimed to be ABBA soundalikes. Check out back to the 60s or their cover of The Lion SLeeps tonight. Pure pop, nothing fancy just good old pop music

  • I really like this song. May I ask who it's by? Also, from what videos did you get these various abba clips? I've never seen the ones where abba are wearing white and jumping off a boat before.

  • Lol.

  • Tibbsy, you did a great job turning "Fantasy Island" into an ABBA video! Terrific stuff. The song could easily be confused for an ABBA song.

  • Thank you it's just for fun,nice to try different things with them, at the end of the day were not going to get any new material.

  • Well they weren't really were they if you heard most of there records most of them never sounded like abba however this came close, they were not Abba, neither did they profess to be, it is only my interpretation.

  • ABBA wannabees, fell off the radar, good riddance...he was the biggest queen I ever met!

    D

  • That was awesome. I love ABBA

  • Great idea tibbs well done, they do have an abba sound.
