Pretty good
This performed by the most beautiful woman ever, IMO! About half the songs are from the ABBA album. The rest are interesting and "nice" to listen to but they do not grab your attention like their group. When she and Frida sing, MAGIC happens. This does not happen for me on this album. I would have loved to hear more fast paced songs with a lot more attention on the high notes and full range that Agnetha is capable of. For sure, "Wrap Your Arms around me" is one of her all time best, although One of Us and Lovers Live a Little Longer are not on the album, they are my favorites. That's me of course is also great! To give an example of her reach into the highest notes, listen to Hole in my Soul towards the end. I still think this is a decent album but I lean towards the neutral zone. I only discovered her a few months ago despite my all-time favorite of Dancing Queen when it was on the hit list. Never paid attention to who sang it. So here it is 45 years later and I have been listening to the Forever Gold album and the Abba in Concert plus Definitive Collection almost daily. These are transfixing and grab your heartstrings upon hearing the first notes of each song!

Still great after ABBA
I admit that I was skeptical but after listening to the preview tracks, I was willing to give it a listen. It was a bit of a let-down at first, I think because I was still expecting the ABBA sound. But after listening to it a few times, it really started growing on me and I listen to it every day in the car. I especially love "I Won't Let You Go", which is one of her own songs. There are only a few songs on the album that I usually skip thru, but on the whole, I am so glad I bought it. I think the next album I buy will be one of Anni-Frid's.

Some opf the Best Music You Will Ever Be Allowed to Hear On Earth!
I remember hearing many of these songs when I was a teenager while living in Norway on the 1960s. Then hearing moire from her when she busted loose onto the Pop Charts everywhere I traveled since then. As part of ABBA she was the greatest-Now on her own once again she produces even more hits. I have all her CDs, 45 Records, Albums, and Tapes. Not a day goes by without me listening to some of her songs for the mood I want to be in. BSM Texas!

The singing was great but the mixer used the instruments to over shadow her voice at times

That is really me
Fantastic Greatest Hits album by Agnetha Faltskog formerly of ABBA some very nice songs on this CD album, it showcases her solo brilliance following on from her Global Superstar status. The Heat Is On was a big hit as was Wrap Your Arms Around Me which are delightful at least 3 ABBA hits are also on here including the massive hit The Winner Takes It All Slipping Through My Fingers and the title track That's Me. A nice listen indeed and I recommend buying it whether an fan of ABBA or not.

Fantastic!
This is a great collection of songs by the wonderful Agnetha Faltskog- I have always been a fan of Abba- and also years ago had all her solo album's - sadly no longer have- so this was a great blast from my younger days past- and I found myself singing along , thinking there were so many good songs- and this album has 17, at great value. Really recommended- it includes both solo work and a few Abba tunes, with some very good liner notes... I love ' I can't shake loose' for e.g, then you have ... well - there's too many- i really like this compilation- classic and a joy- thank you Agnetha.

A mix of music styles on this CD most of it pretty upbeat. I enjoyed all the tracks except the two duets. A couple of ABBA tracks but certainly worth adding to you collection if you like Agnetha's wonderful voice.
