If you were asked to direct a Rox MV

Hi every Rox fans, if Roxette approached you to direct a MV for them, how would you do it?
(e.g. which song you would pick, what kind of scenes, what would be the atmosphere of the MV?)

Really Roxette? *wants to slap a few people in that documentary* And Rox wouldn’t let anything juicy slip. They’re like the musical equivalent of Teflon. Nothing sticks! Fans POV...I dunno, could work but on the other hand could make everyone in it look like nutjobs. Would be fun to find out though!
A Rox MV...well, why not a white room video of them performing? Something really simple and classic. And no, Fingertips doesn’t count, cos that’s not a proper white room.

@Rach: I truly enjoyed Really Roxette! Yes, maybe some fans crossed a border, but hej, it’s a great stuff for the movie!

Crossed a border? Good lord, that’s the understatement of the bloody century!

@Rach: here’s another shock treatment to you. I’m afraid that I’d act more or less the same if I get to see Roxette. Or no, maybe I’d just faint... You never know. But now we are completely off-topic.

LOL, fine. I don’t think you will be one of those really psychopathic crazy ones myself. ;-) Just try not to faint dear!
How about they get Aardman in to do an animated video? You know, make them look like they’d be placeable in the world of Wallace and Gromit.

If I were to direct a Roxette movie, I would go more about their personal life and studio life - and the movie will be WAY too long!! LOL. I would like people to know who Per Gessle and Marie Fredriksson REALLY are.
I think EMI should assign some of Roxette’s BIGGEST fans to do their promotion from now on. An obsessive fan would really just let Roxette’s name appear everywhere and people would wanna give them another try. LOL....
I think Marie Dimberg has gotten too lazy and over-weight over the years and too old.
So, getting her to promote a Roxette MV would be a disaster!!

Hmmm, an interesting question. I guess, I’d make a movie from a fan’s point of view. I’d show how fans were waiting for Per and Marie outside hotels etc. The movie would be based on Roxette tours cos Roxette are the best live on stage performing for thousands of fans! But I don’t know what kind of juicy material of tour life Roxette are hiding :) The backstage material always rock! It would be a little like Really Roxette.
PS I have nothing against to play at least a little role in future Roxette video clips ;)
