"Nina, Pretty Ballerina" is a song recorded in November 1972 by Swedish pop group ABBA, and released in 1973. It was issued on 7" vinyl record in Austria and France to promote the band's debut album Ring Ring, and later in the Philippines (probably to promote the LP The Best of ABBA) and Kenya. It reached #8 on the singles chart in Austria.


The song was also the theme song of Sirius talk-show host Lynn Samuels. Lynn Samuels only played "Nina, Ballerina," as she called it, on Friday, to reward herself for working all week, when she was on Sirius Radio in New York.[1]
