"The Happening" is a 1967 song recorded by Motown artists The Supremes. It served as the theme song of the 1967 Columbia Pictures film The Happening, and was released as a single by Motown at the time of the film's release that spring. While the movie flopped, the song peaked at number 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 pop singles chart in May,
The single has been described as being "in the good-time rhythm music bag" as "the trio changes pace with this classy performance of the new film theme," a "light, bouncy, up-tempo, romp" that is a "sure fire chart topper," and "a bright, bouncy, lively number about the fickle finger of fate and love."
