It isn't just me, this is very much like "Why did it have to be me?" isn't it? I quite like it though despite the fact Abba actually ripped themselves off.
There IS a reason why the two songs sound similar.......... they are basically the same song with different lyrics and some minor changes. Actually, "Happy Hawaii" is an earlier version of "Why Did It Have To Be Me". The impression I got is that at the time they weren't satisfied with what they had so they rewrote it and it was released first as "Why Did It Have To Be Me". Later on, "Happy Hawaii" was relased as the B-side to one of their singles.
