What is the story behind the "Sweet Thing" Rox demo? Found this great song by accident (I thought I had all Rox demo's until i found this one) on http://www.roxette20.eu. Doesn't sound like a demo to me, more like an outtake? How come I never heard about this song before? The lyrics also seem hard to find on the net? Rox on!

Since posting “direct” links to material is “not done” on this forum...
Visit the roxette20.eu website, click on roxette20, goto the download section, click the myths album and there you have it.
Funny thing is that the “Sweet Thing” demo is not on the Myths bootleg according to the scanned inlay.
Hope I’ve done nothing “against the forum rules”.
Rox on!

There was a topic about Sweet Thing Demo some months ago here on TDR. Back them many people asked it and got it.
The demo may be rare, but not here among TDR members.
Btw, the demo is pretty cool. I still keep listening to it many times since i got it some months ago. I even made a cleaner and more stereo version of it.
Take care!

Yes, one member shared Sweet Thing with The Daily Roxette community a few months ago.

Hmmm, the search function didn’t help me here. So I did a manual search. The band was Sugar Bee, and the topic is here now:

I never understood what’s the fuzz about this song/demo. For me it’s just average, or even less. A typical Gessle throw-away song.

Sweet Thing Demo is great!
Take care!

It’s just a matter of taste. I think there are a million songs better than Sweet Thing.

the two former members of sugarbee have a page on www.myspace.com/canabo

Where can you download this demo? I can’t download the song from www.roxette20.eu. Anyone who know another site where you can get it?
Roxrider_USA said on March 18, 2007 17:42:
I don’t know another site. However many of us have the song.
By the way, if i’m not mistaken someone said here in TDR that there’s a Roxette version of the demo. The one we are talkn about here is the Per version.
Take care!

Maybe Roxette would make a great song out of this demo one day? Though I doubt it, cos Per most probably have read that most of his fans have heard this song and he won’t bother releasing it :(

Yiiiieha, finally I was able to get the song, too. Can’t stop listening to it. Some hit potential in it I think, just record it in good quality...
@Room_service: This certainly is Gessle-style - in my opinion a classic Gessle-Guitar-Pop-Song - and that’s why I LOVE IT!
Lantartida said on April 15, 2007 08:31:
I have read Camilla worked with Per and MP at Tits & Ass Studio. Do you know the demos in which they worked together? Did she sing in other Roxette’s songs?
Thank you in advance.
marchmonth said on April 16, 2007 19:53:
yeah, Camilla did sing in some demos of roxette..though i dont really know what songs it was....

Hey lirena74,
The Per Gessle Demo version doesn’t work for some reason? Is it the correct URL?
marchmonth said on April 19, 2007 19:00:
I know Camilla sang in some demos for songs on
the “chrash, boom, bang album”....
Lantartida said on April 21, 2007 17:35:
For which songs? I will try to listen to some CBB demos again. Thanks.
