Composed by two wonderful Swedish musicians that happened to follow a wise advice and got together to play.
Both knew what they wanted: a breakthough, a fair chance in this very competitive market,; they knew that a lot of hard work would be necessary to make this dream come true.
Alredy their first album 'Pearls of Passion', wich was only released in Sweden, made them fasmous in their home country.
By the way, Roxette fans all over the world are still waiting for a new release of the album. So if you got one original copy my congratilations, you're very fortunate!
Dreams of getting into the US charts were burnig more alive then ever. So 'in no time' there was a new Roxette album on the market: 'Look Sharp'. Thanks to a, for Roxette fans well known traveler that took the
new Roxette album home after a holiday in Sweden, US got the chance to put it's ears on it. With the song 'The Look' Per and Marie boxed their way into the charts, stopping only after the first position wasreached.
Many songs of 'Look Sharp' followed 'The Look's example. 'Dressed for Success', or the well known rock-balade 'Listen To Your Heart'. After this big shot, Roxette did prove why they deserved all the fame they reached
with a masterpeace called 'Joyride'. Once again they easily got into the US charts.
What better than a world tour to show the world that they came to stay... Time for printing their names in golden letters in the hall of fame.
Gorgeous world tour with a big success in various of the world's counties. To close this very important step of their lifes and careers, what better than a new album?
A collection of songs recorded life, in studios all over the world and hotel rooms. Yeah, 'Here Comes The Weekend' was recorded in a hotelroom in South America!!!!!! By the way with such a nice quality that you can only stop and wonder
how to get it so perfect in a hotelroom?!?!?
Followed by an invitationd for an 'Mtv Unplugged' and 'Crash! Boom! Bang!', 'Tourism' is surelly a great album with 'new' and 'old' songs from Roxette.
The single that precided the release of (for the Roxette fans tendely called) The Crash album a new, more havier and
naughty Roxette was revealed with 'Sleeping in my Car'. After the big success of their first single, they didn't give the charts a break with:
'Crash!Boom!Bang! and 'Vulnerable'. And to end all this with a key of gold another world tour that included China! Roxette were the third or forth band who was
allought to play over there next to the Chinese Wall!! (Congratulations for the effort!)
After all this do you want more???
Ok, they gave you. With a gorgeos well balanced 'Don't Bore Us Get The Chorus' that contains their greatest hits and 4 brand new songs...
Now these brang new songs got the charts too. 'I Don't Wanna Get Hurt' or 'You Dan't Understand Me' got somewhere.... ;o)
It's enough??
Nope. Last year they released 'Baladas En Espaņol' containing (sometimes new versions and meanings) some of their biggest hits translated
to Spanish....
Now that's enough.... for now, of course! So where are you guys?? What about a new album??? :o)
In the meanwhile Roxette fans got to grab to their well known albums and wait anxiously....
