"Rock Me", first called "Didn't I?" and later called "Baby", was a song recorded in 1974 by Swedish pop group ABBA, with Björn Ulvaeus singing the lead vocals. It was first released on the album "ABBA".

It was used as the B-side to the group's 1975 single "I Do, I Do, I Do, I Do, I Do". However, after "I Do, I Do, I Do, I Do, I Do" hit number 1 in both Australia and New Zealand, "Rock Me" was released as an A-side, reaching No.4 and No.2 respectively. It was also issued as an A-side in Yugoslavia and in 1979 it was included on the band's "Greatest Hits Vol. 2" album - notable as it was the only track not originally recorded between the years 1976 and 1979 on that particular release. ABBA also performed the track on both their world tours, as seen in "" (1977) and the 1979 "ABBA In Concert" documentary.

Cover versions

* German eurodance group E-Rotic covered the song for their 1997 ABBA tribute album "Thank You for the Music".
* Studio 99 did a version for their "Studio Perform a Tribute to ABBA, Vol. 2" album.
