Tevensso, since you are a moderator on here maybe you could help me with this.
For a school project on Roxette, I’m using the song Tag Detta Hjarta as my listening example and I was wondering if you had any info about this song that I could use for my presentation( ie, inspiration for the lyricss, etc.). Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanx!

I’m back. :) I have some info for you here: The song Tag detta hjärta was written by Per Gessle in English, named Heartbeat. There is an instrumental demo by GT. Marie came from the record company Warner and needed songs for her new EMI album so Per translated it and gave her Tag detta hjärta and Rickie Lee (which wasn’t used but later released as a bonus on the re-release of the CD). Lasse Lindbom rewrote the pre-chorus of Tag detta hjärta and was therefore credited. :)
Good luck!

Thanks, I think you are the greatest right now. I really want to do well on this project so any help no matter how much or little really helps a lot.

Ha ha, being a moderator doesn’t necessarily mean I can get what Marie wanted with this song in 1984...(hmmm, 23 years ago) :) Thank you for your confidence in me, but I can’t help.
