Many preliminary versions of "Chiquitita" exist. It had working titles of "Kålsupare", "3 Wise Guys", "Chiquitita Angelina" and "In The Arms of Rosalita". A revised version, which had a sound that was influenced by the Peruvian song "El Condor Pasa (If I Could)" performed by Simon and Garfunkel, was recorded in December 1978 and released as a single in January 1979.[citation needed]

With the success of the English version, ABBA also recorded "Chiquitita" in Spanish by phonetics, and was one of the featured tracks on the ABBA Oro Spanish language CD recording.
