ABBA - Fernando (Official Lyric Video)(by ABBA)


DVD Description : For those who love ABBA (and even if you're not aware of it, you reading this review are one of them), this compilation, ‘Abba Gold: Greatest Hits’, is a thoroughly satisfying and enjoyable collection. It features 19 of the countless videos left behind by this Swedish supergroup. It omits the 13 included in ‘Abba: The Definitive Collection’ and adds “Lay All Your Love on Me” and “I Have a Dream”. While all the clips seem to have been filmed in the same studio and lack significant variation (even the exceptionally popular “Fernando” is no exception), they fully convey ABBA's charm and approachability. It's a precious collection of clips that will give fans goosebumps. Watching it offers many rediscoveries: Who looks best on camera? (Agnetha.) Who's the best dancer? (Frida, aka Anni-Frid). Who's the most demure? (Björn). Who's the worst at lip-syncing? (That's Björn – always Björn). Most of these early videos were directed by Lasse Hallström, who later became an Oscar-nominated film director. He shows us an ABBA that's natural and never over-the-top. However, even ABBA seemed to falter in both style and substance once they began incorporating electronic sounds in the 80s. Alongside familiar classics like “Waterloo” and “Take a Chance on Me,” this collection includes a documentary chronicling their 25-year history and the 1992 version of the “Dancing Queen” video. At this point, I have to say it: Thank you for such incredible music and videos! Translated with DeepL.com (free version)(Mark Englehart, Amazon.com)
