This was originally an unreleased song. It was later remade into the song "Why Did It Have To Be Me" on the "Arrival" album. The only way we could get this version was if we bought the 7" single for "Knowing Me, Knowing You" as they put "Happy Hawaii" on the flip side.
THERE IS A CARTOON VIDEO OF THIS SONG AS WELL AS ONE FOR MONEY MONEY MONEY . Happy Hawaii was not good enough for ABBA’s taste and they changed arrangements and production that turned into the defenitive “why did it have to be me “

What a cool track. Loving your ABBA trip man 😍
Thanks ✌️
Abba reworked this and changed the title to " why did it have to be me" Frida and bjorn sing it when they were in concert

Not in my favourites but still ok.
It is a demo. Not as solid as 'why did it have to be me' that came out of this. The lyrics is a little silly with that 'hawaii' theme, But it is fun
Demo? They released it as a b side so don't think its a demo. ABBA would never release something that's not finished.
@dancelover020 ok thanks for the info but it sounds a bit muddy/rough to me and it is clearly a step to Why did it have to be me
