This song is included on the album The visitors, has been written by Benny Anderson and Bjorn Ulvaeus and the recording sessions began on 16th 19th March 1981 at Polar Music Studios, Stockholm. There's no official video for this song so this is a video I've made for this song using their only performance of this song in 1981 Stockholm, videos of other songs and photos of Agnetha and Frida. Hope you like it! :)

He had what you might
call a trivial occupation
he cleaned the platforms
of the local railway station
with no romance in his life
sometimes he wished
he had a wife
he read the matrimonial
advertising pages
the cries for help
from different people
different ages
but they had nothing to say
at least not until the day
when something special he read
this is what it said

If you dream
of the girl for you
then call us and get
two for the price of one
were the answer
if you feel blue
so call us and get
two for the price of one

He called the number
and a voice said Alice Whiting
the voice was husky
and it sounded quite exciting
he was amazed at his luck
the purest streak of gold hed struck
he said, I read your ad
it sounded rather thrilling
I think a meeting could be
mutually fulfilling
why dont we meet for a chat
the three of us in my flat
I cant forget what I read
this is what it said

If you dream
of the girl for you
then call us and get
two for the price of one
were the answer
if you feel blue
so call us and get
two for the price of one

She said Im sure
we must be perfect
for each other
and if you doubt it
youll be certain
when you meet my mother

  • @EddieAlda same here:)

  • What a fantastic station. I personally feel a lot of their later stuff is very underrated and this is a big example.

  • They could make the music and songs for Everybody..exactly so! Are there somebody better..?

  • nagyon szép szép szép.

  • There is GOOD reason to hv the girls sing lead ! ABBA was on their last legs at this point and both B&B said it was very difficult to come up with new material. "We had given all we had left" said Benny.The two divorces had crushed their group creative cohesiveness and they just did not want to work together anymore.

  • Two for the price of one?? You bet i do.

  • Its a very good song,I love it but it came too late.

  • 1:33 ! Agnetha in the corner!
