Cher is finally back with new music!

After weeks of teasing fans, the music icon is sharing her cover of ABBA's 1979 banger, "Chiquitita" in Spanish.

Earlier this week, Cher spoke with Billboard and explained that she "started learning and rehearsing the song when I was in England last year but didn't record it then." But due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Cher found the time to record the track and perfect it. She's also using the new song for a good cause.

"UNICEF called and I told them I would donate my proceeds from the song like ABBA did with their Spanish version," Cher, 73, said. "I shot my part of the video at home and they later sent me the final cut with children from around the world in it.

"It's such a beautiful, optimistic experience. It's great when you can see anything positive now because all of the turmoil we are in," she added.

The video for "Chiquitita" will debut on UNICEF's COVID-19 Virtual Special on May 9, which will stream at 8 p.m. EST on UNICEF's website and YouTube channel.

Before releasing, or revealing the song, Cher tweeted she thinks "it's actually good."

"I think it will make you smile, tear & be calm. I'm Happy," she wrote.

"Chiquitita" is on streaming platforms. Listen to the track below.
