Hi people!!!
I have had the audio tracks from the CD for a long time - that’s the ’answers’. But I can’t find the questions anywhere in the net. I know they were printed in the insert. Is there someone out there who owns the CD? In that case, I’d be very grateful if you can copy those questions here.
Thanks in advance!

Maybe you are right. The first website I checked in order to find out the questions was Roxette20.eu. As you can read there, it says “the booklet features sixteen questions to Roxette and the CD itself features audio tracks with Marie Fredriksson and Per Gessle answering them”.
But if you say no proper questions were included there, I have to trust on you!

There are indeed no questions in the booklet. The answers are “open-ended” although you actually know the answers of course.

Nice words. Would be great to have this kind of comments from Marie and Per inside every album booklet. Or at least inside new one. ;-)

Thanks for the tips! I just wanted some hints to label each track in a logical way, to have an idea of what is every question about.

Sorry, there are no questions in the booklet (at least not in my issue). There are only quotes of the phrases with which the answer starts and ends. Maybe you thought about “Talking about Tourism”, here you have printed questions in the booklet.
Nevertheless, it’s easy to find some fitting questions on the answers (like Jeopardy! :-))
You have to be aware that this CD was made for promotional use to make radio-features without the need to contact Roxette personally. And usually in such a feature you do not ask the question and wait for the answer (this would be the “interview”-style). It’s more done this way: The “Off-Moderator” tells a story (something like “Roxette released a new album, they also used a song written for HAND originally”) and than they put in single phrases from the interview-soundbytes (for example “We re-edited TCOTH....”).
So the newsman from the radio is not really interressted in reading striktly verbalised questions, he only wants the original quotes by the artist :-) And in this case it’s obvious what they are talking about.
