Lördags was a TV show for children bringing up topics that might interest younger people.
ABBA, then Kjell Johansson (Swedish table tennis world champion), Lasse Berghagen (singer), Ted Gärdestad (singer) and Björn Skifs (singer) were asked the question, "What is it like to be an idol?"
The interviewer was Marianne Gillgren.
This clip, along with many others from SVT, was available in their open archive but has since been removed.
Marianne Gillgren: What does it feel like to be an idol?
Frida: I'm totally exhausted!
Benny: No but...you never look upon yourself as an idol, you know. I mean there's a great part of the audience who does, not all but... In that way it's flattering that they like what you are doing, that it's so good for those who got us for idols.
Björn: Then there's another thing, as well, in our case; we're coming from more or less school environment and then directly into this job, I think most of us does anyway. Therefore...and it's almost ten years ago, therefore you should rather ask the question "What is it like to not being it? (idol)" because we almost always been it and then you're living with it.
Agnetha: It feels therefore rather normal to us.
Björn: Yes...but responsible of course, to know that there's so many people who like what you are doing.
Frida: if you now shall use the word "idol" because it's actually in a way rather strange because you doesn't feel like an idol in anyway.
Agnetha: No
Frida: ...doesn't even reflect the word "idol"
