Roxette gets a new site
Written by roxeteer on November 30, 2005 to Roxette.
SÖDERHAMN - After many years “siteless” or with poor sites, Roxette now has a new, fresh site - www.roxette.se. The new site is involved in the Son of a Plumber project, which also hosts www.gessle.com and www.gyllenetideronline.com there. The company responsible for the design is Transmit/Receive from Söderhamn, Sweden, and the man behind them is David J. Elfström. Two of TDR’s editors, Thomas Evensson and Judith Seuma, have collaborated in the site with adding content in the different sections such as discography, gallery and lyrics, and are the moderators in the forum.
T/R has many many successful Swedish pop sites in their catalogue, among them, Mauro Scocco, Peter Jöback and Lena Philipsson to name a few.
Son of a Plumber.com and roxette.se are in English, while gessle.com and gyllenetideronline.com are in Swedish, the reason for that is simply that the lyrics featured on the sites are in those languages.

- Gessle.com (In Swedish)
- Gyllene Tider (In Swedish)

And I always thought TWATG is in English... ;-)

starrox: it wouldn’t look good to have half of Per’s site in English and half in Swedish. Besides he has 3 albums in Swedish (if u don’t count the demos).
GT also have an album in English.. but obviously, Swedish is the language..

@Judith: That’s what I figured - not only because the majority of the songs are in Swedish, but also because TWATG wasn’t that successful outside of Sweden... ;-)

Nice site, what about Marie’s stuff ?
if they update the site, as others says, maybe they’ll make sth new for next year ?
and it would be a great idea to make a new album for 20 years existence !
so, wait and see ...
