"Chiquitita" was first released as a single in the UK and Europe in January 1979. Abba had performed the song on January 9 at "Music for Unicef" benefit concert for world hunger in New York. "Chiquitita" was one of Abba's biggest hits around the world, partly on the strength of the Spanish version: it reached number 1 in Argentina, Spain, Mexico, Latin America and elsewhere. Inexplicably, Atlantic Records did not release the single in North America until November, ten months after the Unicef concert and album, and it reached only #29 in the US and #17 in Canada. Unicef still gets 50 per cent of the royalties from the song, reportedly almost $3 million.
