"Hooked on a Feeling" is a 1968 pop song, written by Mark James and originally performed by B. J. Thomas.

Thomas's version featured the sound of the electric sitar (played by Reggie Young) and reached No.

On 25 July 2012, the 1974 live performance by Blåblus video was officially uploaded to YouTube; it has generated nearly 6 million views as of October 2022.

In 1998, during an episode of the legal comedy-drama series Ally McBeal, "Cro-Magnon", the main character's neurosis about being able to conceive a child before her biological clock runs out is illustrated by her imagining a computer generated baby dancing into her bedroom to Blue Swede's recording of "Hooked on a Feeling".

A website featuring the dancing baby and the Blue Swede recording became an internet meme, further cementing the scene in pop culture history.

[21] The 2014 film Guardians of the Galaxy,[22] which featured the brass fanfare and title lyrics of Blue Swede's version prominently in its trailers and theatrical release, resulted in a significant spike in sales for the recording;[23] the film's soundtrack topped the Billboard 200 chart in August 2014.
