"My Oh My" is a song recorded by Danish dance-pop group Aqua. It was released as the third single from the Aquarium album overall. "My Oh My" was initially released in February 1997 before being reissued following the success of "Barbie Girl", "Doctor Jones" and "Turn Back Time" in August 1998. Like many early Aqua tracks, the song featured vocals from both Lene Nystrøm Rasted and Rene Dif. It was the fourth release from the album in the UK, where it peaked at number 6, the group's lowest performing single there until "Good Morning Sunshine".

Music video

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 video was one of five Aqua videos directed by Peder Pedersen.
