I Know There's Something Going On" is a song recorded in 1982 by ABBA singer Anni-Frid Lyngstad (Frida). It was the lead single from her solo album Something's Going On. The song was a hit around the world during 1982 and 1983. Recording began in ABBA's Polar Music Studio, Stockholm, in February 1982. As ABBA were unofficially on a break, Lyngstad spent time on her solo project.

Something's Going On is the first solo album in English by Swedish recording artist, Anni-Frid Lyngstad (Frida), a founding member of the Swedish pop group, ABBA. Her previous albums were recorded in Swedish. Recorded in 1982 during the final months of ABBA, Something's Going On was first released in September 1982 and has since then been re-released several times including the 2005 remastered version with bonus tracks.

Something's Going On boasts impressive guitar work by Daryl Stuermer, who has toured with Genesis as well as appeared on several Collins solo albums. Collins' drum work is also outstanding, particularly on the hard-hitting hit single "I Know There's Something Going O. Frida herself shows an unexpected emotional range given ABBA's two-dimensional pop gloss.

Something’s Going On was only Frida’s third solo record, was her first recorded entirely in English, and sold close to two million copies. Something’s Going On is determined to remain a pop album but, working within those broad parameters, it’s also wildly experimental. Years of relentless work with ABBA, and the divorce that closed that chapter, might have seen Frida satisfied to retread former glories, but Something’s Going On sees her making a play at a time when the world lacked a major international female star. Debbie Harry’s band was imploding, while Sheena Easton and Olivia were seen as too safe, so, at the time of the album’s release, everything was still up for grabs.

Something's Going On (Remastered). by Frida - 13 Tracks - 52:02. Release date 10/23/2015. 1. Tell Me It's Over. I Know There's Something Going On (Single Version). 13. Here We'll Stay (Solo Version).
