Summary: Simply Superb!
Review: This DVD featuring all of their greatest videos is just simply a joy to watch over and over again!! The contrast of glittery costumes and camera close ups of facial emotions is well blended together. The DVD director done a great job in putting the videos in order during their heyday.The excellent harmonizing of Agnetha and Frida with the beautiful musicianship of Benny & Bjorn puts a lot of current groups of today to shame! I especially like "Money, Money, Money", "That's Me","Ring, Ring","Mama Mia","Gimme!,Gimme!, Gimme!", "One of Us", and "Head Over Heels". I highly recommend this DVD to fuel your emotions and recapture the moment when real music ruled the world!! :)

Summary: If I could give it more star, I'd surely do!
Review: I was waiting for this DVD for a long time, this is simply, the perfection. ABBA is maybe, the best pop group of all the history and they are still shaking our world.
This DVD collects all their music videos, all the wonderful music they've done. The sound of ABBA is original and it's a class of how making good music. Their songs are musically so complex and well released, that seem to be done at other time.
I saw first the DVD: The Winner Takes It All, and it's a narrative about the group, this one is the essence, the music, the videos and its best.
I RECOMMEND THIS ONE ABOVE ANY OTHER DVD.

Summary: DVD perfection, worth every penny
Review: I know some people have a problem with the sound on this, I haven't encountered any. This DVD is a great deal for the buck, 36 videos on one disc, EVERY video Abba's ever made, in chronological order. It's very neat to see how their videos progressed the same way the music did. The early videos from 1974 are very plain "band miming to a white background", the 1975-1979 videos are among Abba's most infamous. In these somewhat campy classics, you see a lot of "classic Abba poses", like Frida singing while Agnetha is a little closer on camera turned to her side, and the camera focuses in one or the other. The last batch of videos from 1980-1982 show Abba ready to embrace the MTV age. The Day Before You Came was a brilliant video for 1982 standards, even tho it fades out a little too early (the last 90 seconds of the video basically watches a train go off into the distance), Head Over Heels is another one that while it has it's cheesy moments (Frida on a shopping spree), definately would've been shown on MTV in the early 80's had it gotten played, plus it was funny seeing Frida and Bjorn as a couple in the video, considering both had gotten divorced by that time.These videos are a classic pop touchstone. If you love Abba's music as much as I do, this DVD will bring hours of pleasure to you.

Summary: An Absolute MUST-HAVE for ABBA fans!!!!
Review: Oh, what a DVD!! I've loved ABBA's music nearly my whole life and to have all these fantastic music videos in ONE DVD is what is an ABBA dream come true! I put it in my DVD and listen as usual, but now I have the visual as well and it is just great! Pure joy! This DVD contains contains an extended version of "On and On and On", which I absolutely love and even some spanish versions of some songs, which is cool. The music is beautiful and awesome anyhow, but the visuals make it even nicer to watch! It's too cool!! I know many have gone into detail about the songs included so I won't re-iterate that, but let me just say that if you like ABBA, you will LOVE this DVD and you will probably play it often as I do! Happy Happy watching! You will NOT regret buying this DVD, so don't worry...just get your hands on it as soon as you can! :)

Summary: Agnetha at her best
Review: Watching and listening to Agnetha in "The Day Before You Came"
and "Under Attack" are enough reasons alone to buy the DVD. The ending of "Under Attack" is kinda prophetic about the end of ABBA. I eagerly look forward to Agnetha's new album.

Summary: ABBA Rediscovered
Review: I remember ABBA from the 70's but I was never really a fan.
I rediscovered ABBA when my daughter gave me the ABBA Gold CD to listen to. After one listening session I was hooked on ABBA. I purchased the Definitive Collection CD and most recently purchased the DVD. I love the DVD. I read some reviews criticizing the quality of the videos (or promotional films as they were called). However you have to remember these were made in the 70's before MTV. As far as I'm concerned these "films" were terrific. The only thing better than listening to ABBA is to watch them. The version of "Dancing Queen" at the Swedish Opera House in front of the Queen of Sweden was great. I found all the films entertaining. I couldn't stop stomping my feet and clapping my hands. If you love ABBA and want to see them perform instead of just listening to their music, then this DVD is for you. As far as I'm concerned, you won't be dissapointed. I know I wasn't. Buy it, you'll love it.

Summary: Phenomenal
Review: I just bought it 2 hours ago and I cannot believe I didn't know about it. I was expecting to be fooled by some cheap production, but the quality is amazing given the source and the age of the recordings ( by the way, unfortunately it's not DTS like in Korea). As far as ABBA, it's the greatest music group ever and anything new from them is a joy. Even though I know all their songs I didn't see more then a couple on TV, in Europe. I was too young when they were active and I'm not from Sweden, so...
Enjoy it, it's worth the money

Summary: Fabulous!
Review: I love this dvd it is so incredibly entertaining! Some people may tell you that these videos are dated but I'm here to tell you that as an avid watcher of vh1 classic these videos fare far better than most of those during the eighties! I love watching the outfits. My favorites are the blouses with the fox and dog. Hilarious! As for the hairstlyles poor Frida could not get a break(thank god for frizz-ease).
