ABBA – Happy New Year
"Happy New Year" is a song by Swedish group ABBA from their 1980 album Super Trouper. The lead vocals are by Agnetha Fältskog. The song's working title was the more festive and humorous "Daddy Don't Get Drunk on Christmas Day". As a single, the English version originally had a only very limited release in December 1980. The song is especially popular in Vietnam
The Spanish-language version of the song, "Felicidad" was released in 1980 in Spanish-language territories. The single reportedly charted in the top 5 in Argentina and was included on the South American versions of the Super Trouper album. It was first released on CD as part of the 1994 Polydor US compilation Más ABBA Oro, and in 1999 on the expanded re-release of ABBA Oro: Grandes Éxitos.
In 1999, the English version of the song was re-released for the new millennium, and charted at no. 27 in Sweden, no. 15 in the Netherlands and no. 75 in Germany.
In 2008, it was released again in several countries, and charted at no. 4 in Sweden, no. 11 in Norway and no. 25 in Denmark. It re-entered the Swedish and Norwegian charts in 2009 at no. 5 in both charts and no. 8 in the Netherlands in 2011. It has since gone on to regularly chart in some countries upon the turn of new year.
In December 2011 a silver glitter vinyl single limited to 500 pieces was released including the songs Happy New Year and The Way Old Friends Do. The edition was available from the official ABBA site and the ABBF fan site only. It was sold out within the day of announcing the release.
Upon the release of ABBA: The 40th Anniversary Singles Box Set on 5 May 2014, it was discovered that an alternate mix of "Andante, Andante" was used on the b-side of the single in the boxset instead of the original album version.
