"Happy New Year" is a song by Swedish group ABBA from their 1980 album Super Trouper, with lead vocals by Agnetha Fältskog. It originally had a very limited release as a single in December of that year. The song's working title was "Daddy Don't Get Drunk on Christmas Day".[2]
The Spanish-language version of the song, "Felicidad",[3] was released in 1980 in Spanish-speaking territories.[4] The single reportedly charted in the top 5 in Argentina and was included on the South American versions of the Super Trouper album.[5] 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.
