During your darkest/depressing moments that lifted you up. Example: Did Listen To Your Heart prevent someone to rethink about a marriage, suicidal attempt, an illness or courage to do something that they didn’t think they could do? If too personal, PLEASE feel free not to reply to this subject. For me it was “Paint”. Most of you might think–what?–but, for some reason it helped me get the courage to actually ask a girl out that I really liked in highschool. What’s your story morning glorys! Peace.

A Thing About You hit me really hard in January 2004..... still a powerful song for me also!

Santi said on :

Actually Roxette used to have the opposite effect during my anorexic crises at the end of the 90’s and beginning of the 00’s. I had to stop listening to Roxette and switch to something emotionally healthier from my point of view.

Things Will Never Be The Same...

Umm, its still a bit difficult to sum it up in anything coherent, so I’ll leave it for now, as its still quite fresh, if you get what I mean...

harriej said on :

For me also “Things Will Never Be The Same” has a very special personal meaning to me.

i don´t want to get hurt. but it´s not it helped me overcome a difficult situation, it just served as company during a difficult period in my life. i was in love (and still am) with a classmate o´mine at highschool but such a relationship was impossible. and i don´t know why every time i listened to this song i thought about it. maybe that´s because this person was my best friend at that time and we used to spend a lot of time together...

...in eveything i see, you appear with me/how come, how come/and everything i do involves you too...

...but there´s no way you can tell/coz i hide it really well, so well...

ncurran said on :

Beautiful things.....not exactly a happy song, but when marie sings ’is there someone out there.....does anybody want to know’ at a time where i felt really low i was singing those lyrics to myself and it gave me some company/comfort in a strange sort of way. Sometimes it is depressing songs that make me feel better if i am down as it makes me feel as i am not the only one feeling crap/there is someone to empathise with me...even if that person is fictional

vulnerable always brings a tear to my eyes,such a beautiful song.

pwbbounce (moderator) said on :

Everyday for me. Somebody mentioned that it doesn’t have to be cheerful songs that lift you up. This song just did. But I can’t listen to it now without getting emotional..... which is a shame because I love that song

tavo said on :

@above: how could i forget every day. this song is just great!

@ncurran, can´t agree more with your words!

bevi said on :

@ncurran:curious...i feel exactly the same with Beautiful things and particulary that part of the song...

Also Spending my time is a song that has meant a lot for me

MiracleMan said on :

Go To Sleep is still is a bit difficult to listen to without thinking of my mother. When I came home from the funeral, I listened to that song, just out on the then new C!B!B! CD. I think it would have been one of my favorites, but after 11 years I still have that association.

However Love Is All (Shine Your Light On Me) has been a bouy for me this last year since my brother died. There’s a yearning and a joyous positivity that seems to demand hopefullness from me.

kielroxer said on :

well, a lot of rox songs hit me really hard. i still love silver blue, heard it first when i was 13 years old - and i was sooooo in love with a girl - but she wasn´t in love with me....
another song that touched my soul was the i wish you the best song from twatg. the end of the song has the best finish mr.g. ever made!

Ary-Sya said on :

mmm....i still remember very well when i was 13...ok, nothing...., now i am listening and singing i call your name, and also thing will never be the same and it must have been love, both in concert.

vtech101 said on :

@Miracleman- My heart sank reading your comment about your Mother and Brother. That couldn’t have been easy but, it’s sounds like you’re a pretty strong person. Sorry to hear of your loses. Peace.

Rox-Van said on :

Roxette songs;

Cry

Perfect Day

Place Your love

Bla bla bla your broke my heart

From Gyllene Tider:

Even if it hurt (It’s Alright)

Guld

Det är blommor som har fångat dig

And Marie with Per:

I’ll be Alright

For personal reasons difficult to explain in a forum, snifff...

Hotblooded said on :

’Never is a long time’ is very special I think. It always sends me to that really reflective place where you think about life and stuff. I tend to get lost in Marie’s voice and the song is recorded so organically that it brings out this real emotion unlike all the over produced stuff that they do nowadays.

Majdy said on :

Milk and Toast and Honey helped me alot. When I was sad and depressed, I played that song and it could turn my mood from negative to positive.

A Thing About You made me thinking about Marie, because when I first heard the snippet I just heard the shocking news about Marie’s health, so the way Per sing “Lately, you’ve been painting my world’s blue”, it just sound so sad and to me it’s like talking about Marie. So, it made me sad when I heard it. Thank god, she’s okay now :)

dubacik said on :

I don’t have some special song. Always when I was said, went through some depression or difficult time in my life I used to listen to any Roxette, GT’s, Per’s or Marie’s album which was my favourite at that time. But when I have to pick some song I would have two: It must have been love and Love is all.

bevi said on :

@madji:the first time i listened A thing about you, was on the radio and just at the begining the radio-man talked about Marie´s illness (as in your case). I almost couldn´t listen the song cos i started to cry all along... anyway, I still remember that this song made me feel sad but also sure that everything went to be ok. Per´s voice is amazing in this song, much feeling, just lovely.
Still today, listen to this song and think of that day and of Marie.

mareo said on :

I remember than in one of my happiest moments (I hope I’m not being off-topic) I had a part of Fingertips in my mind: “then she runs her fingertips through your hair, Your life has just begun”... so simple and so true
