The Hep Stars was a Swedish rock group, formed in 1963 in Stockholm. During 1965-66 the band was the most successful of contemporary 1960s Swedish pop groups performing in the English language. Outside The Nordic Countries the band is best known as a launching point for the keyboard player and composer Benny Andersson, who went on to enjoy worldwide success with ABBA.

The band was founded by the drummer Christer "Chrille" Pettersson (3 November 1942 – 27 August 2006) and the bass guitarist Lennart "Lelle" Hegland with the keyboard player Hans Östlund and the guitarist-singer Jan "Janne" Frisk. At the height of their popularity, the line-up consisted of Hegland, Pettersson, Frisk and Sven "Svenne" Hedlund on lead vocals and Benny Andersson on keyboards.

She's a sunny girl, a real girl

And no-one can declare

That she's something that I never need

And never want to care for

She's a sunny girl, a real girl,

That's why she's satisfying

She will never ask for anything but you

Ain't that a girl

She's domestic, she is property

She's slim like reed

She's devertin', she is faithful

Ain't that all you need

And I'm souring like a feather

In a world I've just created

For a very simple reason

That is one, she's mine

She's all mine.
