thoughts?
i like the singles they dropped (i still have faith in you, 🌟dont shut me down🌟 and just a notion)

i absolutely do not like when you danced with me

i dont care for little things

i can be that woman is boring but i can appreciate it

keep an eye on dan isnt catchy until 1:32 minutes in and even then its kinda weird

i do not like the intro to bumblebee and i dont mean to be rude but you can hear her voice is old and tired and her english isnt really that good, the song is slow but lyrics are cute i guess

no doubt about it is funky!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! this one i like!!!!!!!!!!!!! AAAA

ode to freedom is not something id put on, it feels like the ending song to a movie but nothing more than that

all in all im SUPER disappointed WOW
like they really made the three best songs the singles for sure
out of the 7 new songs (so not counting the already dropped singles) i only liked 1
and im a BIG abba fan

hello hello sorry i'm late
i've been at school all day, but i have gotten to listen through the album a couple of times throughout the day

initially when i listened to it last night, i wasn't sure what to think. Like it's different, but it's still abba so i was a little bit like huh. i wasn't expecting them to do the exact same thing as they did when they were still young and active, like it's been 40 years the sound had just got to be different, but i wasn't sure what to expect of them either so i just needed some time to let that first listen sink in before i could even reflect on what i had just heard

but the album really did grown on me for each listen, and now i'm a real fan!! it's a little softer and slower than their earlier albums, but i really like that honestly

my favourites so far are the three singles, so yeah, i have to agree with you there
but i also really like little things (even tho the melody is a bit boring and i wish they had done something a bit more interesting with it), bumblebee and no doubt about it

i don't really care for when you danced with me and ode to freedom tbh
and i'm undecided about i can be that woman and keep an eye on dan

now i'm gonna look at all the lyrics properly and then i might come back with more thoughts!!

i'm a big abba fan and the first time i heard it i was a bit disappointed and felt like something was missing, but it has grown on me a lot. the singles were amazing. i loved when you danced with me, it's so joyful and reminds me of the piper from super trouper. keep an eye on dan is a BOP!!! bumblebee is so beautiful and has fernando instrumentals. no doubt about it was badass and frida's energy is amazing. ode to freedom was a beautiful ending, felt like a proper goodbye.
the only songs i didn't love was little things, it's a cute christmas song but nothing really special, and i can be that woman wasn't my thing but i still appreciate it, i think older people might like that one.

i'm just happy we got new music, i think all songs are beautiful and they're still magical, i don't care what anyone says. is it a masterpiece? no but that wasn't the point, they just did this for fun and for the fans and most of all for themselves.

i hear what youre saying and im gonna give it another go but for me personally the album was a flop and a real disappointment for sure

im really curious what my mom is gonna think of it
she was born in 64 n basically grew up with abba, and ive hyped this album release up alot for her
but i dont think shes gonna care for it tbh cause she likes the poppy groovy disco abba, not the sad boring slow tunes
thing is she isnt that tech savvy, so she ordered the cd instead of just listening to it on spotify hahahah i can imagine shes only gonna like don't shut me down, just a notion and no doubt about it. She didnt really care for i still have faith in you she said when it came out
