Hallå Västindien is a song written by Anders Melander, originally intended to be a dansband parody song for the TV series Lycka till in 1980.[1] Recorded by Felix, it acted as a B-side for the single Tomorrow.[2]

A Vikingarna recording on the 1981 album Kramgoa låtar 9.[3] became one of the band's most successful hit songs ever. In 1981 the song was also recorded by Curt Haagers and released as a single.[4]

The song was also performed by Date during Dansbandskampen 2008. However, not during the Sveriges Television live-broadcastings, but at the official compilation album of Dansbandskamepen that year.[5]
