abba - Chiquitita (Wembley)

[cotumarre]

It's a scary thought what they would've done today, this is true talent, these are real voices, no digital anything. Imagine what they would've sound like today. An amazing quartet, an amazing combination of talent. I did not live their time but I enjoy what they left behind. Wherever the 4 of you are, may God bless you, and thank you for this immortal music you left for all of us to love. It's been almost 40 years since this song and I bet that it would still top the billboards today.

[mikelee8873]

got to give credits to the 2 song writers too. just like lennon-mccartney

[sonlatino2010]

[drosan68]

[huyago]

so beautiful.

[IronPillaz]

I heart ABBA!!!

[factualfilms]

awesome

[colin7983]

ever time i hear you im so happy your so good your the best xxxxxxxxxxx

[Villeneuve27]

Agnetha screwed up that lyric at 2:40. You can see the look in Bjorn's face and even Benny's eyes got big for a second. LOL

[chocolatepoundcake]

@Villeneuve27 Huh? I listened to that part several times. When + what is the mistake?

[Villeneuve27]

@Villeneuve27 my apologies, it was at 2:33. Instead of saying "Chiquitita you and I cry" she says "Chiquitita you and I know" again. She corrected the mistake mid-word and it sounds like some strange word. Just look at Benny and Bjorn's faces. Benny just shrugs his shoulders when she corrects herself. Its just kinda funny to see.

[colin7983]

shes so out of this world i could make her my wife this Agnetha

[alskarmusik1]

Beautiful voice! I wish I could have seen them live.

[Craighoal]

Amazing even live they sound as good as the numbers when listen to which were recorded in a studio!! Love Agethna's outfit....little did she know then that women in 2010 would be dressing the same way. What a crowd at Wembley

[gedeon2305]

what a great performance, they were so perfect!fantastic!

[BrightLightAtNight]

Agnetha's facial expressions are very moving, I love em...

[fadoni100]

linda apresentaçao da misica pena que ninca mais podemos ver o abba ao vivo

[calcorrfan]

One of my favorite ABBA songs. My only complaint is that they shortened it for this live performance.

[alldesignstudio]

Frida is from Norway, and a very good singer. The boys are enormous musicians, they compose music with Andrew Lloyd Webber today. The girls are great singers.

[odonp13]

aggie is like a swan, elegant, cool and effortless

[nofreedomofspeech]

Of course they sing in English, all children here in Sweden learn English from the 4th grade.

[IIIIdepechemodeIIII]

just listening to agnetha's voice makes me squirt

[Earthlinked]

ABBA DOES sing in English!! Do ntot confuse YouTube video with lipsync! If you have a normal video tape and reduce it to YouTube format - the sound track is ALWAYS off a bit from the video track. This is becasue the size of the frame is smaller!!! It is either have the music off from the video - or make everyhing sound like chipmunks!!!!!

[mickritt]

Happy Birthday, Agnetha! Thank you for all the beautiful music. Wishing you and your family the very best.

[Gilsondaprincesa]

Muito bom Agnetha maravilhosa, muito obrigado saudaçoes do Brasil,

[Gilsondaprincesa]

Muito bom Agnetha maravilhosa, muito obrigado saudaçoes do Brasil,

[chocolatepoundcake]

A masterpiece...I keep coming back to this exact video.

ABBA's legacy is incredible...especially Benny & Bjorn for their stunning songwriting abilities. It takes an amazing song first to then sing it!

[12887333]

Isn't Agnetha there THE SOMETHING ELSE??

[tuneaddicted]

What a genuine talent they all were.. but this song was a perfect fit for Agnetha's beautiful, soulful voice. She had one of the best voices to ever be recorded, always perfect tone and pitch and oh so sweet. Will there ever be a group this good again?

[beadsstitcher]

i miss them!!

[ZZJoCa]

Never really liked this type of music but I loved Abba - what a spectacle of sound they were. I can't explain what I see in Agnetha's eyes; is it humanity?

[blackandmartin]

@ZZJoCa Yes,I think so

[bourlivak88]

@ZZJoCa it is the famous nordic melancholy..

[edvaldoromilda]

the best... not speking

[SofiaAlskarOlaSalo]

gosh...how pure isn't this performance by Agnetha ? you can clearly hear the true, clean and typically Aggy sound at the beginning of the song..i love it!XD

[biriby2]

frokinho  è 10

[bernidamm]

Gnetha is almost crying...

[Halo101st]

ABBA was absolute perfection.

[sondano]

3:28 LOL Benny seems to have a good time for sure

[sondano]

I'm a big MJ and ABBA fan and the difference between the two is that ABBA sounded excellent on stage too not just in the studio while MJ's concerts are almost unlistenable

[Paris2Memphis]

Agneth = pure talent

[Soreea]

You have every reason to be proud of Sweden... a real classic. ABBA is just stunning after all this years. Just don't know where they got all this... overwhelming melodies and lines from... well, I guess genius is something you never can explain. And that's good for several reasons - just listen and enjoy!

[firefromsky]

Does anyone know how ABBA chose the lead vocal for each song?

[demon27dan]

@firefromsky Frida is a soprano, and Agnetha is a mezzo soprano. Music would need to be in a different key for whoever was taking lead vocals, so the decision as to who would sing the song would take place before the song had even been written, as it would determine the key in which Benny and Bjorn wrote the music. Deuts would be written in a complementary key. A song written for Frida, for example, could not be sung by Agnetha unless the music was re-written.

[tabugirl]

@demon27dan You have it the other way around... Agnetha is the soprano and Frida is the mezzo-soprano. Regardless they were...are both great.

[illphilwolny]

Yes, this is def. not lip-synced...I think alot of the other clips on Youtube weren't lip-synced live at the time, but programmers simply dubbed in the studio versions on the broadcasts. It seemed to be the thing back then, and on alot of German and other music programs.

Only upsetting part is that they only do the chorus once...But that's what the replay is for.

ABBA turned down $1 BILLION USD to do a reunion tour, and they would def. have been earned twice that. Simply a majestic group.

[AnconProducciones]

respect miss Agnetha... i love abba

[Oceangirlabba123]

Chiqutita ABBA number one

[emerging2012]

For all those people commenting on ABBA songs being lip synced need to stop here and watch this clip. They sing this song and all other songs spot on! Agnetha and Frida's voices are just amazing!

[rmc838587]

Benny is so cool, and Agnetha so beautiful!

[seeyoo72]

I'm very pround to be from Sweden

[BANCOMAMO]

la cara que tiene agnetha es perfecta, una de las mujeres mas hermosas e interesantes que vi en mi vida.-

[christian4ever4]

Her facial expressions are great.

Majestic music..

[nikon005]

Gary Glitter used to sing this on karioki

[salvationwealth]

sing a new song Chiquittatita

[vikingo778]

This video proves who had the best voice in Abba no sound effects,no playback, in chiquitita and the winner takes it all, the Agnetha's voice shows why she was the most popular member of the group,voice,talent for writing songs and beauty,that is Agnetha Faltskog the greatest!

[SUDHARGUN]

Agneth, you are great.

[Raporia]

one thing ur overlooking despite this being the greatest abba song ever, this is labelled wembley 2008 abba never performed this at wembley in 2008 for obvious reasons !

[uglybob6666]

Every song she sang she showed so much emotion in her eyes and here face, she really meant what she was singing, even when lipsyncing for the videos. I love that.

[remotefeeling]

I want to converse with someone who has been in this concert

[remotefeeling]

beatiful song!los amo!

[casasverige]

This is the best song from ABBA...I love it

[thgirbla]

....and she has a cute caboose!!!

[thgirbla]

NO, thank YOU for the music, ABBA!!!

[raluci75]

her voice goes straight to your heart....goose bump!!!

[lw4nw]

this song is my favourite ABBA song...amazing...

[savvanah1974]

OMG!!!

look how Angetha looks pretty!!!!!!

No botox

No fake nails

No contact lenses

No nothing

only light makeup.....with natural good looking

[chocolatepoundcake]

Yes, but to be fair, her blond is not natural (she has brown hair). People always seem to forget that.

[chocolatepoundcake]

This was supposed to be a reply to savvanah1974.

[vikingo778]

that is true, Agnetha is only talent,voice and beauty all natural!

[rmc838587]

Well said! She is clearly talented and beautiful !

[powermuppen]

[aconchobhar]

[double74]

Lol but true!!

[dholm13]
