"My Oh My" was the third release by the Scandinavian dance-pop group Aqua, and the fourth charting single in the United Kingdom. From the Aquarium album "My Oh My" was initially released in February 1997 before being released in the UK as the follow-up to three consecutive number one singles in August of 1998.
"My Oh My" was a song with notable medieval influences, clear by the beat of the song. Like many early Aqua tracks, it featured vocals from both Lene Nystrøm Rasted and Rene Dif. The video for the single featured the four members of the group on a pirate ship, with Lene being captured by the other members (playing pirates) before turning the tables around and taking over. They then go on to discover treasure.
The single reached number 6 in the UK, making it the worst performing single from Aquarium at that point, although "Good Morning Sunshine", the fifth single, would perform worse and only reach number 18.
