Frida & Agnetha Singing Together 2016 ! - BB50 Party - Lasse Anrell

Lasse Anrell, from NWT, was lucky enough to be invited to the BB50 party.

He was then kind enough to share this magnificent video of Frida & Agnetha singing 'The Way Old Friends Do'.

What an absolute thrill to hear these two amazing women singing together once more.

A standing ovation at the end - and hugging of all 4 ABBA members just tops it off perfectly.

Thank you Lasse, and thank you Frida and Agnetha. The best thing I experienced in a very long time.
Brought tears to my eyes - and joy to my heart :)

And I agree 100% - Frida sounds so amazing - and together, Frida and Agnetha are simply magic ! :)

Rough translation here:

A unique pickupNWT was one of at most four media companies invited, and when this year's Richest party was held in Stockholm on Sunday.It was Björn o Benny - Bjorn Ulvaeus and Benny Andersson - who celebrated 50 years of collaboration and chose to call it "100 years of togetherness".Everyone was there. From the entire ABBA Lill-Babs of Peter Jöback to my table where Pernilla Wahlgren and Harpo was in full prosperity and Pernilla revealed that she would not only sing a duet with Lena Phillips but also sing running on a track at the end where she learned that she might end up being a little "overshadowed" by two other singers.And just so it was.For when suddenly Anni-Frid Lyngstad gets up in his white beautiful creations and go up on stage and start talking, and get with it another dressed in white beautiful woman named Agnetha Fältskog - then pull the entire salon for breath and realize that now it will written history, Swedish music history.And just so it was.We had in itself been a part of history already. Jerry Williams sang "Cadillac" - Hep Stars old here. Benny played solo. How heavy anytime. Lill-Babs and Peter Jöback sang Benny's two sons, Peter and Louis sang together. How concerning whatsoever. Bjorn Ulvaeus Benny sang to whooping and piano accompaniment.Lena PH and Pernilla sang, "Hole In Your Soul" as some latter-o Agnetha Frida. How Darling whatsoever.And that was performed video greetings from heavy people.Lasse Hallström and Lena Olin from the US. How Swedish whatsoever.And Paul McCartney sent a video message in which he is protesting his admiration and declared ABBA's grandeur and kinship with Paul's old orchestra, if you remember it. It was history, and one could have imagined that Paul wiped a small tear that he did not get the chance to celebrate some anniversaries my trusty old companion and ADVERSARY John.Paul acclaimed Björn o Benny. It set a level of everything. Suddenly everyone in the room physically what level these gentlemen are. Equal with Paul. At par with the Beatles. Respected flush with the ankles of pop music biggest names of all time. Acclaimed by Sir Paul.How historically anywhere.So sang Frida.Thus, I have to say this very clearly.So sang Frida and I have never ever in my life heard a woman singing with such buoyancy and beautiful voice. I have heard almost all major live, but as Frida this evening rise from a dinner for several hours and perform the song with the voice and the depth and the feeling is among the most impressive I've heard.- You and I can share the silence (You and I can share the silence), she started and the text is indeed a paradox in this context, but certainly quite true when it comes to her and Benny, and perhaps also her and the rest of the band; they have shared the clatter and voices and the audience cheers. To also be able to share the silence was certainly a path and a prerequisite for survival as a team.Agnetha was not as comprehensive in their singing but in the end she found yet their role in the outrageously fine harmonies and I would say that what was created then, those few minutes, it is beautiful to be heard in Swedish music history since ABBA recorded their discs and - if we make music history even further back - then Jussi Björling and Birgit Nilsson recorded "Turandot" 1959thHow historically any time, as I said.And you can hear it.Yes actually.Visit nwt.se and click on this article there the whole song in one, what I have seen, globally unique recording from my seat out in the audience. Poor picture, good sound. Alternating good, shaky and amazing vocals. But never uninteresting.We wanted the story.And just so it was.Go and enjoy. Unique NWT's listeners.And if I can ask for anything, it is that Frida doing another record. She is 70 years, but sings best. By far the best and sensuellast and innocent world shrouds. Avicii wake up ... or someone. Wake up everybody.
