Allsång på Skansen (Sing-a-Long at Skansen)

Filming Tuesday 2 August 2005
Location Skansen, Stockholm, Sweden
Broadcast LIVE, SVT
Notes Benny Anderssons Orkester appeared in the sixth episode of this year's Allsång på Skansen hosted by Anders Lundin.

They performed "Du är min man" (You Are My Man) written by Benny & Björn in 2004 plus a brand new Benny & Björn composition "Det är vi ändå" (It's Still Us) then "Tangokavalieren" (sung by Kalle Moraeus) and joined in "Drommen Om Elin" sung by Tommy Körberg and then the final sing-a-long for "Bättre och bättre dag för dag" (Better and Better Every Day). 

Benny and Helen were interviewed by the host Anders and Benny revealed he is a regular listener of Svensktoppen. Benny was also asked about plans for 'Kristina från Duvemåla'. When asked if they would call it 'Kristina From Sweden' he replied they would simply call it 'Kristina'. He also said that they were looking for somebody really good to take the part of Kristina (with Helen Sjöholm standing right next to him!).

After the cameras stopped rolling, they also performed "Why Did It Have To Be Me?" with Tommy Körberg and Helen Sjöholm on vocals.

Also, on the same show is The Real Group, who recorded "Dancing Queen" with Frida.
