Happy Hawaii

"Happy Hawaii" is a popular song by pop group ABBA. It is a novelty song with a Hawaiian flavor, featuring a steel guitar as part of its arrangement. Lead vocals are by Frida, with all four members joining in from time to time. It was first released as the B-side of "Knowing Me, Knowing You", and became well known by many people. The song has over 60,000 combined video views on YouTube. An animated video was made for the song, with typical 1970s animation in the style of Hanna-Barbera and Filmation. The video was thought to have been lost for many years but was recently rediscovered in somewhat poor condition. Allmusic once called the song "a soaring, rocking dance number". The song has appeared on various ABBA reissues and it appears as a bonus track on the reissue of their album Arrival. It was composed by Benny Andersson, Stig Anderson and Bjorn Ulvaeus.
Why Did It Have To Be Me
ABBA later reused parts of the melody for a song called "Why Did It Have to Be Me?", which appeared on the album "Arrival".
