"You Owe Me One" (working title: "Kamelo") 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" and on the 1997 and 2012 remasters of "The Visitors". It was excluded from the 2001 remaster due to the group's songwriters critical attitude towards "You Owe Me One". 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. 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, when "Just Like That" was edited and released as a promo single for the "Thank You For The Music" box set and "I Am The City" was released as a part of the "More Gold: More Hits" album. It has been noted, that Benny Andersson and Björn Ulvaeus dislike the song due to it being "just a jingle".
