ABBA : Honey Honey

Very catchy single first released in April, 1974 on
their Waterloo album. It was the 2nd single to be released from the album after the success of the title track winning the 1974 Eurovision Song Contest.
As well as the English version, ABBA also recorded "Honey, Honey" in Swedish on January 30, 1974 at Metronome Studio, Stockholm.
This the last official recording by the group in their own language and was released as the B-side of the Swedish "Waterloo" single. In its English format, "Honey, Honey" was released with "King Kong Song" as the B-side.

"Honey, Honey" was released in several European countries, the United States, Australia and New Zealand, but not in the UK. ABBA's British record label, Epic Records, decided to release a remixed version of "Ring Ring", but this single only reached No.32, so instead, a cover version of "Honey, Honey" was recorded by the act Sweet Dreams, promptly hitting the UK Top 10.

"Honey, Honey" spent four months in the top five in West Germany, and also reached the top five in Austria and Switzerland. In the United States, "Honey, Honey" was moderately successful compared to the group's later singles. It reached No.27 on both the Billboard Hot 100 and Adult Contemporary charts; the first ABBA single to reach the AC chart.

LYRICS
Honey honey, how you thrill me, ah-hah, honey honey
Honey honey, nearly kill me, ah-hah, honey honey
I'd heard about you before
I wanted to know some more
And now I know what they mean, you're a love machine
Oh, you make me dizzy

Honey honey, let me feel it, ah-hah, honey honey
Honey honey, don't conceal it, ah-hah, honey honey
The way that you kiss goodnight
(The way that you kiss me goodnight)
The way that you hold me tight
(The way that you're holding me tight)
I feel like I wanna sing when you do your thing yeah

I don't wanna hurt you, baby, I don't wanna see you cry
So stay on the ground, girl, you better not get too high
But I'm gonna stick to you, boy, you'll never get rid of me
There's no other place in this world where I rather would be

Honey honey, touch me, baby, ah-hah, honey honey
Honey honey, hold me, baby, ah-hah, honey honey
You look like a movie star
(You look like a movie star)
But I know just who you are
(I know just who you are)
And, honey, to say the least, you're a doggone beast

So stay on the ground, girl, you better not get too high
There's no other place in this world where I rather would be

Honey honey, how you thrill me, ah-hah, honey honey
Honey honey, nearly kill me, ah-hah, honey honey
I heard about you before
I wanted to know some more
And now I know what they mean, you're a love machine

I was hanging out with my friends last night at this restaurant and this song started playing and they starting laughing at it calling gay and stupid... I through it was strange how somebody couldn't taste something so revolutionary, something that had such an impact on humanity, I don't know... maybe I'm just pathetic.

When I was a kid I thought this song was just the sweetest thing on earth, but wow those lyrics, oh those moves at 1:00, and Frieda's such a sexy fox (1:53) it's even more fun now!

Honey honey is one of Abba's best work from the early days :)

I used to make fun of Abba thinking it was 70's "teeny bopper" crap! Until I heard SOS when I was about 20 and thought,"I like this!" Then I realized I like most or all their songs! I also realize each individual in Abba is talented. Far more talent than just about all the crap we've heard since 1999. (My opinion.) Yeah, Abba is not Hard Rock or will make you "cool" in front of all your friends. It's probably a guilty pleasure for a lot of people too. But it's really good music!

[Wally Moran]

Your not pathetic Silver - but I'd give your friends a reality check. In this day and age, calling something gay is a bit hypocritical when you think about it. Perhaps they just have bad taste. Be yourself, it's the one thing we can all be good at.
