After many many years listening Roxette I still think that song is absolutely one of gold moments of the band...It can cause tear on my eye...brilliant ballad,I think missing a single and video for it was a mistake...
Like “Things will never be the same”,fantastic music,lyrics and arrangement,one of best “Joyride” moments,but there’s no video,and only B7 on cassette...what do you think people....
greets from Croatia....

True they are both great songs, but I absolutely think that “Anyone’ is the best Roxette ballad ever...that is a beautiful track

Yeah “I was so lucky” is a really great song. I love the demo of the song too. And it´s a little bit closer cause Per sings. And I love the middlepart with the acoustic guitar solo... I‘m always touched when I listen to that song..

Yeah, the guitar solo in the demo is a WAY better than in the album version.

I LOVE “I was so lucky” It truely the best ballad I have ever heard. And I’m talking about the demo. Dont like the album version that mush.. Love it when Per sings, it feels like it so special to him..
Can’t get enought of this song.

watercolours in the rain is by far the best ballad that has ever been written by Rox.

I think it must be their most boring song ever, sorry to disagree :D

Yeah the guitar solo would have been better than the sax, but its something slightly different i suppose.
And i also think that watercolours is one of their best songs.

I was so Lucky is SUCH a beautiful song. it wouldnt have been the same without the sax (sorry dont agree on the guitar thing) is there a demo of i was so lucky availble anywhere? i havnt seen or heard it... just wondering. might be nice to hear, but then again, per is on most of the demos, and i prefer hearing maries voice to certain songs.
