message: Whoever keeps trying to re-edit the 'Personnel' section to state Agnetha is on sole lead vocals for this song, please desist.   'Take A Chance On Me' has always been regarded as a joint lead vocal song and this is confirmed by the much respected ABBA Omnibus site.   It is quite clear.   The first 20 seconds is the acapella opening featuring all four members. It then has 27 seconds of the chorus with both Agnetha and Anni-Frid.  The two women then sing the first verse up to 1 min 4 seconds.  It is only then that Agnetha sings the first of two short 'bridge' sections of 12 seconds each.  Even these are both intersected by 'It's Magic !' by both voices.   There are different criteria that can be used when judging who is on lead vocals of any particular song.  Who sings the opening lines and who sings the verses.  In this case, both women quite clearly start the song with the men providing accompaniment.  Both women sing all the verses and all the choruses. That more than enough made it a joint lead vocal.  Virtually every ABBA fan recognises it so.  But there's always one.  http://www.abbaomnibus.net/  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Bovis Messroom (talk • contribs) 00:30, 5 November 2021 (UTC)
