"I Know There's Something Going On" is a song by the Swedish singer and ABBA member Anni-Frid "Frida" Lyngstad, released on 6 August 1982 as her debut English-language single. It was the lead single to her third studio album and her first in the English language, Something's Going On (1982). It was penned by Russ Ballard and produced by Phil Collins.

Being released shortly before ABBA's hiatus, "I Know There's Something Going On" proved to be a major hit for Frida, peaking atop the music charts of Belgium and Switzerland and made the top ten in multiple European countries and Australia. Uniquely, it also became a somewhat large American hit, stalling out at number 13 on the Billboard Hot 100, peaking higher than many of ABBA's own singles on the chart.
