}}Funny How Sweet Co-Co Can Be was The Sweet's debut album, released in November 1971 on RCA Records in the UK. The album contained two singles which were hits in the UK: "Funny Funny" (No. 13 in March 1971) and "Co-Co" (No. 2 in June).^[2] In the United States, only "Co-Co" dented the chart, reaching No. 99 in October.^[3]

RCA released the album in West Germany under the title Funny Funny, How Sweet Co-Co Can Be (1971) with a different album cover and an extra song.^[4] That song ("Done Me Wrong All Right") was included as an extra track on the 1991 BMG Music CD reissue. It is also the first bonus track on the CD reissue released on 24 January 2005. It reached number 1 in Finland.

Track listing

All songs written and composed by Mike Chapman and Nicky Chinn except where noted. On the American Top 40 broadcast of May 26, 1979, Casey Kasem reported that Chapman stated his source of inspiration for "Funny Funny" was "Sugar, Sugar" by the Archies, going so far as to call it "a blatant ripoff."{{CN|date=January 2019}}
