Saw a few familiar faces responding—go PM!
I assume she sang DFS? Even Marie had a hard time with that one.

I left my thoughts on that shitty site (Arg-fan). I think the girl in question, called Phume, is not guilty at all. She didn’t write that stupid comments about Roxette not “being cool”. Not her fault, but the site is a real pile of crap. I guess she ruined the song with her performance, and that’s why she was dismissed. Here we had a sort-of Idol TV programme, called “Operación Triunfo” (Triumph Operation) and a girl sang “It Must Have Been Love” too. Of course, the final result was horrible. Marie is the best!!!

I really hate this type of tv programs, in spain we have Operacion Triunfo and who tried to sing a roxette song just done it soooo bad!!! it was a shame to see it, i remember three girls singing Dressed For Success... they couldn’t do it much worse. How to see this one... and to say she is off becouse she was singing a rox song is a very stupid coment i think!! and then the coments of other people...

Hardly a very professional article & comments by the editor!

I don’t normally follow this “Idol” rubbish, and now after reading them reply’s i’m glad I don’t.
All of them links that were posted by silky were complete crap, the NZ link had nothing to do with Roxette, just that the singer was crap, and that drivelwarehouse.com, what the hell is all that about?!

Indeed. It all isn’t but a matter of personal taste in the end anyway. So we all have bad taste? So ok. How much should we care? Every perspective should be just as valid.
Anyway why not go for something different? I say: here’s some opinion articles to much surprisingly (how about that! 0_0) share of our so “disturbing lack of good taste” ( NO!? *shocked*) > http://www.furia.com/page.cgi?type=twas&id=artistsr (just scroll down to find Roxette and read on) ’Cos so they say it: there’s no accounting for taste... is there?...

It’s about a stupid TV show, Idols, in South Africa. A contestant was dismissed and they say her fault was she sang a Roxette song, “and that’s not cool”.
I never read something more stupid in my life. I wonder what is cool for this people: Britney? Avril Lavigne? Christina Aguilera? Come on! I will say something to those morons later...
