"You Owe Me One" (working title: "Kamelo"[2]) is a song recorded by Swedish pop group ABBA in 1982 for their unfinished ninth album. It was released as a B-side for the group's last single — "Under Attack"[1] and on the 1997 and 2012 remasters of "The Visitors".[3][4] It was excluded from the 2001 remaster due to the group's songwriters critical attitude towards "You Owe Me One".[5] The main vocal is performed by Anni-Frid Lyngstad, but Agnetha Fältskog joins in on the chorus.
History
The song's recording sessions started on 3 May 1982.[6] This single was recorded along with two other ABBA songs — "I Am The City" and "Just Like That". These two songs were kept unreleased until the mid 1990s,[6] when "Just Like That" was edited and released as a promo single for the "Thank You For The Music" box set[7] and "I Am The City" was released as a part of the "More Gold: More Hits" album.[8] It has been noted, that Benny Andersson and Björn Ulvaeus dislike the song due to it being "just a jingle".[9]
