"När vi två blir en", written by Per Gessle, and also known after the refrain's opening line ""Jag vill känna din kropp emot min"", is a song with lyrics describing teenage love, released as a single on 29 October 1980 by pop group Gyllene Tider. Göran Fritzson wrote the Farfisa-intro and the hook. Gyllene Tider also recorded the song with lyrics in på English, as "Beating Heart", releasing it as a promo single on 1 September 1981 using the group name Modern Times.

The song became a major hit in Sweden and Norway, topping the singles charts in both countries. A recording by Miio & Daddy Boastin' became a 2003-2004 hit, topping the Swedish singles chart.

The Gyllene Tider version charted at Svensktoppen for 10 weeks between 14 December 1980-1 March 1981, peaking at 2nd position. The Miio & Daddy Boastin' version was tested for Svensktoppen on 3 August 2003, but failed to enter the chart.

Gameshows in TV and radio where it's about to guess the right year, as well as several year-based radio and TV-programs, often use the song as a signature for 1981, despite the song being a 1980-1981 hit.
