ABBA THE DOVES

ABBA THE DOVES

ABBA ဆိုုတာ ဘာလဲ ဘယ္သူလဲဆိုုတာသာမသိရင္ေနမယ္၊ ၈ဝ-၉ဝ ခုုႏွစ္ေတြေလာက္မွာ ေမြးတဲ့သူေတြအတြက္ Dancing Queen၊ Mamma Mia! စတဲ့သီခ်င္းေတြနဲ႔အတူ ၾကီးျပင္းရင္း မကခဲ့ဖူး၊ မၾကားခဲ့ဖူးဘူးဆိုုတာေတာ့ မရွိသေလာက္ပါပဲေနာ္။ ဒီေတာ့ ABBA ဆိုုတဲ့အမည္နဲ႔ ဂီတအဖြဲ႔ေလးအေၾကာင္း စလိုုက္ၾကရေအာင္……ABBA ဆိုုတာကေတာ့ ဆီြဒင္ႏိုုင္ငံရဲ့နာမည္အၾကီးဆံုုး ေပါ့ပ္ဂီတအဖြဲ႔တစ္ဖြဲ႔ျဖစ္တဲ့အျပင္ ဂီတသမိုုင္းတစ္ေလွ်ာက္ အေက်ာ္ၾကားဆံုုးအဖြဲ႔မ်ားထဲကတစ္ဖြဲ႔ျဖစ္တယ္။ ကမာၻတစ္ဝန္း အယ္လ္ဘမ္နဲ့ သီခ်င္းပုုဒ္ေရ သန္းေပါင္း ၃၈၀ ေက်ာ္ေရာင္းရခဲ့ျပီး အဂၤလိပ္စကားေျပာႏိုုင္ငံေတြမွာ ေအာင္ျမင္မႈေတာက္ေလွ်ာက္ရခဲ့တဲ့ ပထမဦးဆံုုး ႏိုုင္ငံရပ္ျခားမွအဖြဲ႔လည္းျဖစ္ပါတယ္။

You may not know who or what ABBA is, but, for sure for those born in the 80s and 90s, it’s impossible growing up and not ever heard or danced to Dancing Queen or Mamma Mia! ABBA is the biggest ever pop-band of Sweden and one of the most popular groups in music history. With over 380 million albums and singles being sold worldwide, they were the first group from a non-English speaking country to have standing firm success in English speaking countries.

အဖြဲ႔နာမည္ကိုု အဖြဲ႔ဝင္ေတြျဖစ္တဲ့ Agnetha Fältskog (အမ်ိဳးသမီး)၊  Björn Ulvaeus (အမ်ိဳးသား)၊ Benny Andersson (အမ်ိဳးသား) နဲ့ Anni-Frid Lyngstad (အမ်ိဴးသမီး) တိုု႔ရဲ့ ေရွ့နာမည္အစအကၡရာေတြယူျပီး ေပးထားတာကလည္း သုူတိုု႔ရဲ့ထူးျခားမႈပါ။ ဒါ့ျပင္ သူတိုု႔ဟာ အဖြဲ႔ဝင္အခ်င္းခ်င္း အိမ္ေထာင္ျပဳလက္ထပ္ထားတဲ့ စံုုတြဲႏွစ္တြဲေပါင္းအဖြဲ႔လည္းျဖစ္ပါတယ္…ဒါေပမယ့္ ေနာက္ပိုုင္းမွာေတာ့ ႏွစ္တြဲစလံုုး အိမ္ေထာင္ေရးျပိဳကြဲသြားခဲ့ၾကျပီး ေဖ်ာ္ေျဖေရးစင္ျမင့္ေပၚကလည္း အနားယူလိုုက္ၾကေတာ့တယ္။ Benny နဲ့ Anni-Frid က ၁၉၇၈-၁၉၈၀ အထိေပါင္းသင္းခဲ့ျပီး Björn နဲ့ Agnetha တို့က ၁၉၇၁ မွာ လက္ထပ္ခဲ့ၾကပါတယ္။ ၁၉၇၄ ခုုႏွစ္ Eurovision ျပိဳင္ပြဲမွာ သူတိုု႔ရဲ့ေရပန္းစားလာမယ့္သီခ်င္း “Waterloo” ဆိုုတဲ့သီခ်င္းနဲ့ အႏိုုင္ရခဲ့ျပီး ေက်ာ္ၾကားမႈုရရွိခဲ့ေပမယ့္ အဖြဲ႔မျဖစ္တည္ခင္ကတည္းက တစ္ေယာက္ခ်င္းစီဟာ ဂီတလမ္းေၾကာင္းေပၚ ေရာက္ေနခဲ့ႏွင့္ျပီးျဖစ္ပါတယ္။

The band was named after the band members’ First initials – Agnetha Fältskog, Björn Ulvaeus, Benny Andersson, and Anni-Frid Lyngstad. They were two married couples but, later ended in collapse of both marriages and officially took a break from the public stage. Benny and Anni-Frid were married between 1978 and 1980, as were Bjorn and Agnetha married in 1971. Although they gained their popularity with their hit song “Waterloo” in the Eurovision Song Contest in 1974 and won, each of them had already had their career going on in the industry before they formed the group.

ABBA အဖြဲ႔ဟာ ေျပာရမယ္ဆိုုရင္ တစ္ကမာၻလံုုးေနရာတိုင္းမွာ အထင္ကရနာမည္ၾကီးခဲ့တာျဖစ္တယ္…အေနာက္တိုုင္း ေရာ့ခ္ နဲ့ေပါ့ပ္ဂီတေတြ မထိုုးေဖာက္ႏိုုင္ခဲ့ေသးတဲ့ ႏိုုင္ငံေတြမွာေတာင္ သူတိုု႔အဖြဲ့ေပါက္ခဲ့တယ္။ သူတိုု႔ ေခတ္ေကာင္းတုုန္းကဆိုုရင္ US ဟာ ABBA ရဲ့ ဖရိုုဖရဲအျဖစ္ဆံုုးေစ်းကြက္လိုု႔ သတ္မွတ္ခံရခဲ့ျပီး အခုုေတာ့ မဟုုတ္ေတာ့ပါဘူး…ABBA Gold ဆိုုတဲ့ အယ္လ္ဘမ္နဲ့ အယ္လ္ဘမ္ေပါင္း ေျခာက္သန္းေက်ာ္ေရာင္းရခဲ့ျပီး US မွာ ပိုုျပီးေရပန္းစားေက်ာ္ၾကားလာခဲ့ပါျပီ။ ၾသစေၾတးလ်ႏိုုင္ငံမွာေတာ့ သူတိုု႔ရဲ့ေအာင္ျမင္မႈဟာ အၾကီးမားဆံုုး ပရိသတ္အားအေကာင္းဆံုုး the Beatles နဲ့ေတာင္ေအာင္ျမင္မႈတူညီတယ္လိုု႔ဆိုုရေလာက္ေအာင္ ျဖစ္တယ္။

ABBA remain huge in practically every turn of the world, even in countries where most other western rock and pop music could not penetrate. The United States was considered ABBA’s floppiest market during their active days, but that isn’t true anymore they are today more popular than ever before in the States, with the ABBA Gold album being now sold more than six million copies. They had the largest fan base in Australia where their popularity matches even that of the Beatles there.

သူတိုု႔ရဲ့အေကာင္းဆံုုးေတးသီခ်င္းေတြ စုုစည္းထားတဲ့ Gold အယ္လ္ဘမ္ကိုု ၁၉၉၂ မွာထုုတ္ေဝခဲ့ျပီး UK ရဲ့ ဒုုတိယ အျမဲတမ္း-ေရာင္းအား အေကာင္းဆံုုးအယ္လ္ဘမ္ အျဖစ္၊ ကမာၻတစ္ဝန္းေအာင္ျမင္ဆံုုး အယ္လ္ဘမ္မ်ားစာရင္းဝင္ခဲ့ပါတယ္။ Dancing Queen၊ Knowing Me Knowing You နဲ့  Super Trouper သီခ်င္းေတြက သူတိုု႔ရဲ့အေရာင္းရဆံုုး ေတးသီခ်င္းေတြပါ။ Elvis Presley၊ The Beatles ျပီးရင္ UK နံပါတ္တစ္ဇယားမွာ ၉ ၾကိမ္တိုုင္တိုုင္ရခဲ့တာျဖစ္ျပီး သူတိုု႔ရဲ့့ဂီတဖန္တီးမႈအေပၚ The Beatles၊ The Beach Boys နဲ့ The Bee Gees အဖြဲ့ေတြရဲ့ လႊမ္းမိုုးမႈရွိခဲ့တယ္လိုု့ ABBA ကေျပာပါတယ္။

Their collection album Gold: Greatest Hits, which was released in 1992, has become one of the most popular albums worldwide and it is the UK’s second best-selling album of all time. Dancing Queen, Knowing Me Knowing You and Super Trouper are their best selling singles. They occupied the UK Number Ones nine times after Elvis Presley and The Beatles during 70s and 80s. ABBA claimed to have the influence in their music by The Beatles, The Beach Boys, and The Bee Gees.

ဂီတတစ္ခုုထဲနဲ့နာမည္ၾကီးတာလားဆိုုေတာ့မဟုုတ္ပါဘူး၊ ကိုုးရိုု့ကားယားပံုုစံေတြကိုု ရဲရဲဝင့္ဝင့္ ဝတ္စားေဖ်ာ္ေျဖတာကလည္း သူတိုု႔ရဲ့ သူမတူထူးျခားတဲ့ ၇၀ ခုုႏွစ္ပံုုစံစတိုုင္လ္ ေၾကာင့္လည္းျဖစ္ပါတယ္။ ေတာက္ေတာက္ေျပာင္ေျပာင္အသားေတြ၊ ေဘာ္ၾကယ္ေအာက္နားကားအဝတ္ေတြ၊ လည္ပင္းကေန ေျခေထာက္အထိ တစ္ကိုုယ္လံုုးအသားကပ္ဝတ္စံုု၊ ထူထူျမင့္ျမင့္ရွဴးေဒါက္၊ ယုုတ္အစြဆံုုး ထုုပ္ပိုုးတဲ့အခါသံုုးတဲ့ သံျဖဴပါးလႊာ (tin foil) လိုုမ်ိဳး….အဝတ္အစားပံုုထဲမွာ ရွာလိုု႔ရသမ်ွကိုု ေပါင္းစပ္ထြင္ျပီး ဝတ္စားေဖ်ာ္ေျဖေလ့ရွိတယ္။ ဒီလိုုဝတ္စားတာကလည္း ဆီြဒင္ရဲ့ အခြန္ဥပေဒအရ ေန႔စဥ္ သမရိုုးက် ဝတ္စားသြားလာလိုု႔မရတဲ့ ပံုုစံမ်ိဳးေတြဆိုုရင္ ဝင္ေငြခြန္ေဆာင္တဲ့အခါ အဝတ္အစားဖိုးႏႈတ္ျပီး အခြန္ေလ်ာ့ေပါ့ခြင့္ရတယ္လိုု႔သိရတယ္။ ဒါေၾကာင့္ ABBA အေနနဲ့ ဒီလိုုဝတ္စားေဖ်ာ္ေျဖတာက အခြန္ေလ်ာ့ေပါ့ေအာင္လိုု႔လည္းပါတယ္လိုု႔ ေျပာတယ္။ အင္တာဗ်ဴးတစ္ခုုမွာ Björn က “အမွန္ေျပာရရင္ အဲ့တုုန္းက ကိုုယ္ေတြေပါေၾကာင္ေၾကာင္နဲ့တူခဲ့တာဗ်၊ စင္ေပၚမွာ ကြ်န္ေတာ္တိုု႔အဖြဲ့ေလာက္ ကၾကိဳးကေၾကာင္ဝတ္တာ ကြ်န္ေတာ္တိုု႔ပဲရွိတယ္…ဒါေပမယ့္ ကြ်န္ေတာ္တိုု႔ေတြးတာက ဒီလိုုပံုုစံမ်ိဳးဝတ္မွ နံပါတ ္၉ ေနရာခ်ိတရင္္ေတာင္ လူေတြရဲ့စိတ္ထဲမွာက်န္ခဲ့မွာေလ။”

It’s not only their music that they are famous for, but their outrageous wacky costumes were also prominent 70s styles throughout their career….all those Sparkling fabric, spangly flares, catsuits and platform heels even tinfoil, literally anything they can dig in the piles of costumes. However, ABBA’s flamboyant stage-wear owned something to Sweden tax’s law which allowed the deductions for clothing if it could not be worn daily out on the street, so, the band could claim the cost of outfits to be deducted against tax. Bjorn said in an interview, “In my honest opinion, we looked like nuts in those years. Nobody can have been as badly dressed on stage as we were. But we figured people would remember us even if we finished ninth.”

ဘယ္လိုုပဲျဖစ္ျဖစ္ ဖက္ရွင္စတိုုင္လ္က ဒီေန႔ေခတ္ထိမရွင္သန္ခဲ့ေတာင္ သူတိုု႔ရဲ့သီခ်င္းေတြက အခ်ိန္ၾကာတာေတာင္ မေပ်ာက္ျပက္ေသးတာ အေသအခ်ာပါပဲ။ သူတိုု႔ေခတ္ေကာင္းခဲ့စဥ္က သူတိုု႔ရဲ့ေက်ာ္ၾကားေအာင္ျမင္မႈက ဒဏၰာရီဆန္ဆန္ ျဖစ္ခဲ့သလိုု ယေန႔အခ်ိန္ထိလည္း ပန္းပန္လ်က္ပါပဲ….  ABBA ရဲ့ေတးသီခ်င္းေတြက နားဆင္သူေတြရဲ့ ႏွလံုုးသားထဲမွာ အခ်ိန္အၾကာၾကီးထိ ရွိေနဦးမွာပါ။

Anyway though their fashion styles don’t live out till today, their music has certainly stood the test of time. They were the legends in their own time and still their legacy is hanging around. Music of ABBA will stay in hearts of listeners for a long time.
