quite funny. most of you guys pick the same songs as p&m did. everyone changes a bit, but nothing spectacular. of course crush on you is nominated often, but especcially from the older albums you seem to agree with roxette/emi. i expected more different opinions here, since a lot of people here always complain about this or that song, and that they miss this or that one...
but keep on posting, if we´ll get about 30 posts in here, i would count all songs and tell you, what the “average rox fan” thinks...

TheRain1981 > RESPECT for you list! That is good - veeeeery good indeed! What can I say? Well, I have a few modifications, but I think you have *very* wisely chosen the songs that are suitable for release, and not only that, you have also chosen very well which songs are suitable for early release, and which are suitable for late release as double-singles.

My comments would be:

Look Sharp!:
01 The Look
02 Dressed For Success
03 Listen To Your Heart
04 Dangerous
05 Sleeping Single [Following the release of “It Must Have Been Love” after “Dangerous” I would have worked this as the final single from ’Look Sharp!’]

> I’d say: Sleeping Single / (I Could Never) Give You Up double A side single - or, Give You Up could A-side with one of the others. Paint could also possibly B-side for one of the singles.

Joyride:
01 Joyride
02 Fading Like A Flower (Every Time You Leave)
03 Spending My Time
04 The Big L.
05 Church Of Your Heart / (Do You Get) Excited? [double A-side]

> I’d say: 05. Church Of Your Heart / Small Talk - double A-side. 06. (Do You Get) Excited? / Perfect Day *or* Watercolours In The Rain - double A-side. I know 06 singles is a bit over the top - but I honestly think they could release all 15 tracks off that CD as singles.

Tourism:
01 How Do You Do!
02 Queen Of Rain
03 Fingertips ’93 / So Far Away (’Tourism’ Version) [double A-side]

> YES! So Far Away was best song of the album! I do, however, prefer the album version of Fingertips.

04 Almost Unreal (From ’Super Mario Bros.’ Soundtrack) / The Rain [double A-side]

> Another good choice. However, The Heart Shaped Sea was also a good pick - they should have made that double A-side.

Crash! Boom! Bang!:
01 Sleeping In My Car
02 Crash! Boom! Bang!
03 Run To You
04 Fireworks
05 Place Your Love / Vulnerable [double A-side]

> I’m in a bit of a trouble here ... There are so many songs I love on this album (What’s She Like, Sorry, Place Your Love, First Girl, Go To Sleep, etc.) ... however, I think the ones you list are the ones best suited for single release.

Don’t Bore Us - Get To The Chorus (Greatest Hits):
01 She Doesn’t Live Here Anymore
02 You Don’t Understand Me
03 June Afternoon (placing this at 3rd single status to coincide with an early June release)
04 I Don’t Want To Get Hurt

> 03: Clever. :)

Have A Nice Day:
01 Crush On You
02 Wish I Could Fly
03 Stars
04 Anyone / Pay The Price [double A-side]
05 Salvation / It Will Take A Long Long Time (Modern Rock Version) [double A-side]

> 01: Yes! :)

Room Service:
01 The Centre Of The Heart
02 Real Sugar
03 Milk And Toast And Honey
04 Looking For Jane
05 My World, My Love, My Life / Make My Head Go Pop [double A-side]

> I’d say: 04 > Fool / Try (Just A Little Bit Harder) - double A-side. 05: Excellent pick! Make My Head would be a nice pick for last single.

The Ballad Hits:
01 Breathe
02 A Thing About You

The Pop Hits:
01 Opportunity Nox
02 Little Miss Sorrow

A Collection Of Roxette Hits: Their 20 Greatest Songs!
01 One Wish
02 Reveal

My choices are based on mixes views: what I believe it would have been released as a single no matter what and my preferences as well.

POP [1986]: Neverending Love, I Call Your Name, Joy Of A Toy, So Far Away [what could have been the first true Roxette ballad]
LS!: [1988]: The Look, DFS, Listen To Your Heart, Paint (instead of “Dangerous”)
JOYRIDE [1991]: Joyride, Spending My Time, Fading Like A Flower, The Big L., Hotblooded
TOURISM [1992]: How Do You Do!, Queen Of Rain [absolutely], Keep Me Waiting and The Rain [though I wish this one had been released on CBB! and then be released as a single at the time]
CBB! [1994]: Crash Boom Bang! (Finest Ballad), Sleeping In My Car, Harleys & Indians (or Fireworks) [both share the same “a la The Look vibe so.. :)] Vulnerable [Four single would be enough]

DBU [1995]: You Don’t Understand Me, June Afternoon [my favourite] though I have a feeling that hadn’t it been released SDLHA would have been one with no doubt at all. Then IDWGH [this songs deserved so much sooo much]
BIE[1996]: Only one promotional single [Habla Corazon or Un Dia Sin Ti] and that’s it. No commercial releases.

HAND: Here’s the most loved “hated” album of all roxtime... LOL COY [MUST], WICF [Obviously], Stars [It would have been released no matter what], and then either “Anyone” or “Salvation” [but I starting to wonder that 3 big ballads on the same album all of them with single potential... it’s bit too much. Never felt that on any other previous album. There are big ballads but they are great as album tracks not as singles]

RS: TCOTH [Yeeeeeeah], MTH [It had to be], Fool, RS and finally .... MWMLML ... (still having this opinion after 5 years)

TBH and TPH: Seriously for these compilations it would have made only sence those 2: ATAY and ON but I have the feeling that Breathe could have had a great chance on a special situation. Common feeling towards IDWGH too. Love both equally... the same vive and style while one is more sad and dramatic so some extend the other is sad but so serene and peaceful in the way it deals with the sadness.]

RH [2006]: One Wish and Reveal... what else is new? LOL
