Today it was raining cats and dogs all day so I watched “Ballads & Pop Hits: The Complete Video Collection” and I found out this:
- Marie appears barefoot on 9/37 videos, that’s 24,32% (It Must Have Been Love, Listen To Your Heart, Spending My Time, Crash! Boom! Bang!, Wish I Could Fly, Anyone, Salvation, Milk And Toast And Honey, (Do You Get) Excited?)
- Per wears sunglasses on 13/37 videos, that’s 35,13% (Queen Of Rain, Almost Unreal, Vulnerable, Anyone, Salvation, The Look, Joyride, Church Of Your Heart, How Do You Do!, Run To You, Stars, Fingertips, Fireworks)
- There is at least one bed on 13/37 videos, that’s 35,13% (A Thing About You, It Must Have Been Love, Spending My Time, Queen Of Rain, Wish I Could Fly, Anyone, Salvation, Milk And Toast And Honey, The Look, Run To You, Stars, The Centre of The Heart, Un día sin ti)
And, at 32:23 minutes, that’s on Crash! Boom! Bang! video, there’s an error on the step at the base of the column.
My favourite video’s parts:
- when Per, on Joyride video, let the guitar fall down to catch it again
- when Marie turns into Per on Almost Unreal
- when Marie hugs Per from behind on Dangerous
- when Marie appears from behind of Per’s head on the Look
And more, but that’s all for now.
What about you, what are your favorite parts of Rox’ s videos?

I love the way Marie pulls Per and gets close enough to kiss him in Neverending Love. Don’t you?

I also love the when Per turns a tiny TV on and covers Marie’s face with his hand and then his hand travels down her body(on TV). The look he has is WOW...Did anybody else notice this?

i love marie dancing in TCOTH in the room where she has a blue shirt on and hot leather/pvc trousers on and she squats down as she is singing, very nice.

the crash boom bang video was a mare to produce - they had to shoot it twice - the first time there was a serious computer glitch - which the insurance had to pay for to put right. I guess the second one was much better - but there are a few problems with it for sure.

I had forgotten one “Per wearing sunglasses”: Fireworks. I have already added to the list above.
The part when Per plays the guitar on his knees and Marie is at his side on Listen To Your Heart is one of my favourite too. Actually. LTYH is my fave song and the video is one of my favourite as well.
And Marie jumping on M&T&H video wearing that colourful coat (Fran Fine style) it’s nice. I want a coat like that! :)

Oh! On Joyride video, there is scene where the red car seems to stop and Marie loose her balance.

All funny moments of How Do You Do video, especially Per singing “Do you do” like he is bored :)
Also agree with you Debora -
- when Marie turns into Per on Almost Unreal
- when Marie hugs Per from behind on Dangerous
- when Marie appears from behind of Per’s head on the Look
-Marie in the corridor in Neverending Love
-The end of Neverending Love when they are smiling
-when Per touches the screen with Marie on it in Dangerous
-Marie’s movements during Joyride video
And a few moments in Chances and Fading Like A Flower which I can’t remember very well now cause I haven’t seen them for so long...

My fav would have to be Marie’s dancing in TCOTH! She looks so beautiful and so feminine. Her body is simply WOW!!
Debora said on April 10, 2006 20:15:
@Fortius
Yes, it’s funny. Poor Marie! I like the monkey (or it was a bear?) that is reading a children’s book.

It took me 10 years to realize this:
In the The Look video, when Marie sings “nanananana” for the first time in the song (2:28), the weird looking guys does that Michael Jackson dance step... (spins and then points the sky).
Then, when Per sings “she´s got the look” (2:38) the woman in the red dress is taken out of the scene on top of the 3 guys in a “body surfin´” kinda way. Watch the upper right corner of the screen and you´ll see it.
In Dressed for Success, after the first chorus when everybody in the party claps their hands (1:16), the woman in the back with a white shirt and the big big black wig claps out of tempo - LOL she wasn´t concentrated at all!

I will have to pay attention next time! It’s funny searching the videos for those things! I’m sure we can find a lot of interesting things on them.
Thanks DVDs to let us do this! (It’s easier than with a VHS!)

I also love that scene in Dangerous video when Per touches TV screen where Marie’s face appears :) And my favourite all time video is Queen Of Rain. Joyride is hilarious, Vulnerable is... super sweet ;)
PS I’d like to have the coat Marie is wearing in Milk And Toast And Honey video.
Debora said on April 16, 2006 21:13:
That coat is fantastic! And the house too. Does anybody know if it is the house of one of them?

Well, I just luurrrve that little head wiggle that Per does near the end of How do you do vid - aww, wot a sweetie!!
Fortius said on April 9, 2006 00:14:
I like when marie sings on top of the keyboards and when they shake hands on How do you do!
-When Per walks along the beach on Vulnerable, and throws stones to the sea (oh my god).
-When marie wakes up in M&T&H she looks so fresh and natural.
-When Marie and Per sing face to face in The Look and Dressed...
-When Per plays the guitar on his knees and Marie is at his side on LTYH.
-When Marie nods her head along the power drum in FLAF
there a lot more....
