"En for orgelet, en for meg" ("One for the Organ, One for Me") was written by Janove Ottesen, and is the fourth single from their sixth studio album, Violeta Violeta Volume I. It originally saw release as a digital downloaded included with preorders of the album in certain digital music stores. Ottesen has stated outright that this is the closest Kaizers Orchestra have ever come to the genre of rap, though he maintains it has had an influence on the band's music in the past, citing "Kontroll på kontinentet" as an example.
"En for orgelet, en for meg" is unique in that five versions of the song exist; four of these feature a different artist rapping during the song's bridge. In the Norwegian version, featured on the album itself, Lykke Sofie Myrås, the sister of Ottesen's wife, performs this part. The three other versions, which are significantly shorter than the album version, feature Prinz Pi, Timbuktu and Blaxtar, rapping in their native languages of German, Swedish, and Dutch, respectively. This idea was conceptualized partly in order to further Kaizers Orchestra's international appeal. Lastly, a remixed version of the song was created by Tommy Tee. All five versions were released as a digital EP on 14 June 2011.
