By ABBA. By Benny Andersson and Bjorn Ulvaeus. Arranged by Felipe Gonçalves. This edition: audio, pdf. Disco, Pop, Rock. Individual part. 2 pages. Felipe Gonçalves #1037611. Published by Felipe Gonçalves (A0.1458681).This is a high-quality simplified transcription and arrangement for 4-string bass guitar (standard tuning E-A-D-G) of the iconic New Year anthem “Happy New Year” by the legendary Swedish group ABBA, originally released on their 1980 album Super Trouper. This bass sheet music is crafted for ease of playability while maintaining the original harmonic and rhythmic essence of the song — making it ideal for beginner to intermediate bassists who want to experience the beauty and emotion of one of ABBA’s most memorable tracks.
Set in the key of F Major / D minor, this arrangement captures the nostalgic and bittersweet tone of the song, preserving its gentle groove and dynamic shifts. The notation includes both standard notation and tablature (TAB), clearly indicating note values, rests, and positionings, allowing players of different backgrounds to read with confidence.
"Happy New Year" is known for its emotional piano line, layered harmonies, and reflective lyrics about the passage of time and hope for the future. This bass arrangement enhances that emotional experience by providing a solid and supportive harmonic backbone without overcomplicating the original structure. It’s perfect for:
Solo practice and performance
Music classes and student recitals
Pop and holiday season band setlists
Repertoire-building for aspiring bassists
Celebratory performances during New Year events
This arrangement is particularly suitable for musicians who wish to explore the richness of ABBA’s songwriting with an arrangement that is musically accurate yet accessible, and that stays faithful to the original character of the song while being tailored for educational and performance use.
Whether you're a fan of ABBA’s unmatched pop legacy, a student learning 1980s pop-rock classics, or a performer seeking fresh additions to your seasonal repertoire, this simplified bass transcription of "Happy New Year" will bring timeless elegance and joy to your playing.
