Subtle signs of Roxette coming back :)

7 replies

Hi everyone! The other day while in the supermarket, I was surprised to hear ATAY on the background music... Here in Spain the song gained a pretty good airplay when it was released, but it’s weird nonetheless to hear it now...

But the really surprising thing came soon after (or soon before? can’t remember) when I heard It Takes You no Time to Get Here played as background music on the subway!!! An album song, not The Look, not IMHBL, nol LTYH...! it was so surprising and cool to unexpectedly hear it!!

I must say I’d love to meet the person who selects background music for the subway here, since I love the selection of music he/she does, usually a very stylish blend of ballads/midtempo songs, combining both oldies, pop classics and rather obscure tracks. In fact I think I’d love this job, can you imagine, choosing this music for everyone to hear and creating a peaceful nice atmosphere?

By the way, I think the two events are connected and they’re preparing the public for Roxette’s comeback. I’ve noticed before when an artist is about to come back to the music scene, soon before his/her music suddenly starts to be heard everywhere.

Edit: missing word and spelling.

In the past few months, IMHBL has been played at the mall where I work.

I also heard “It takes you no time to get here” several times on those sattelite radios in big supermarkets. I guess it’s an international company or something...

I wish I have a £5 for everytime I heard Roxette in Morrissons!

I once heard ” Looking for Jane” at H&M here in Germany...and “Ett Hus Vid Havet” as I rang the hotline of IKEA...THAT was funny!!!! I also heard” Looking for Jane” in a restaurant...really strange. It isn’t a single. Today I heard “IMHBL” two times on the radio. There is a lot of Roxette around...soo nice!

When I was at the Bangor Mall this year, they played IMHBL which was great,I think!

I’ ve heard Loking For Jane in McDonnald when I was in Malmo last year and also It Takes ... Nice surprise to hear non single songs. And some years ago some guy played whole HAND album in fit centrum. Really great.

Ha Ha, was played in Morrisson again this morning when I was queuing...
