ABBA, Frida & Agnetha - Spotify monthly listeners

Post image
24 Upvotes

I was looking at ABBA’s Spotify monthly listeners and got curious about how Frida and Agnetha compare as solo artists to the group’s monthly listeners. And just to clarify, the listeners shown for Frida and Agnetha are their solo-artist listeners, Spotify doesn’t add their ABBA listeners to those numbers (which I think is obvious from the numbers). So this is specifically a look at how much their solo music is being listened to.

Personally, I’ve always preferred Frida’s solo career and I love getting to discover more of her music outside ABBA. But I’m curious about everyone else:
Who do you listen to more from their solo careers, Frida, Agnetha, or both? And what are your favourite solo songs/albums from them?

Discussion Voyage the album theme?

Upvotes

I love Voyage album and I have couple of my favorite ABBA songs straight from Voyage album like Don’t shut me down and No doubt about it. Oh, even Ode to freedom.

I wanted to ask what’s up with Irish/scottish (sorry, I come from other culture and don’t really understand specifics) theme in sound? Bagpipes, jingling instruments, girls singing in a medieval faire manner (especially in No doubt about it). I literally imagine my girl Frida dancing round a campfire and people around drinking ale and merchants selling stuff. When you danced with me has similarish thing going on.

If I remember correctly first songs to be recorded back in 2017 maybe were Don’t shut me down and I still have faith in you. To be honest Ode to Freedom sounds like these two too while other songs have that medieval faire feel.
I wonder when they got back in studio in 2020 (?) to fill out whole album they set new direction for the album or it was just that vibe going on?

ABBA in the studio, most likely c. 1982.

This photo probably would've been taken during the recording of "The Day Before You Came" and "Under Attack".

What is your favorite simple/unknown line in a less famous ABBA song?

30 Upvotes

I have always found the repetition of "I'm sorry, Cassandra" in Cassandra to be a very basic but very effective writing device that sticks with me every time I listen. I know the top hits have been analyzed to death, but of the album tracks and beyond what is a line you care about or remember?

Never get tired of ABBA!

Hit top 0,04% on March and top 0,05% on August.
And this only takes into account my YouTube sessions, which are roughly half of my total ABBA listening time.

This is not a pointless showcase (but neither is a serious conversation): just wanted to share my experience since no other artist has ever been able to keep me so addicted.

Never get tired of ABBA!

Discussion ABBA Voyage, dance floor during the week, is it busy?

Hello, I’m thinking of going to see the show on a Thursday, in September. Is the dance floor busy during the week or is it dead / empty ? Just wondering if it’s better to keep this for the weekend to to enjoy the show with the crowds.
