Another shot for Room Service

I was just listening to Room Service and I must say it is quite a good album after all...
First when I bought it (a year ago) I thought it was brilliant but after a few weeks it already seemed to be rather dull and worse than the previous LP, for instance.
Now songs like Real Sugar (which I never really liked that much) or Try (which I’ve always skipped together with Pop and Fool) come alive again and shine like a couple of absolute masterpieces!
If you haven’t listened to Room Service in a while, grab it now and be thrilled...Or in the worst case, go and buy it n-o-w (!) which reminds me: Markuz, did you ever buy it?!

Nope LOL
I downloaded the whole thing from the internet. I’m a starving university student and I can’t afford CD’s heheheh unless we’re talking about Eurythmics obviously.
It’s a good album. Not their best, but still good.

It’s funny you should say that but it happened to me with Tourism, I decided to listen to it after a looooong time of not hearing it and WOW I couldn’t believe how good the songs were, I honestly thought this album was good but not that good now I think it is one of the best.
I think with Roxette albums I really love them at first then get a little sick of them don’t listen to them for a long while and then realise how good it really is when I hear them again! Hasn’t happened with HAND or RS yet but I know it will!!!

Something strange happened to me, when I heard HAND for the first times ... I thought: “well, hmm, it’s ok” I didn’t like it that much, and didn’t listen to it for a very long time.
Shortly before the tour last year I listened to HAND again ... and suddenly I loved almost every song :)
Strange, but true :))))

its funny how many people panned hand and now surprise its a great album

Yes!
That’s strange.I had the same feeling about HAND.
At first,I only liked WICF from that,and I thought
it’s a really weak and Cheap album.But after 6 months
I felt a great hunger for listening to COY,Stars,Salvation
and BT.Now,some of these songs are in my Top10.
Of course there is a fact :
I loved C!B!B! from the beginning till now without change.
About RS:Can you believe that I didn’t feel nothing when I
heard TCOTH for the first time?
But now, this song is the best song of 2001 for me.

Oh yeah!!
At the moment, my favorite album is C!B!B!, but it´s changing verrry often.
the last 2 weeks, it was JOYRIDE

Oh I can understad roxtom :)
For me it’s hard to decide which album is the better one, Joyride, Tourism or C!B!B! (right now it’s C!B!B! *g*)

i agree that room service gets better everytime i listen to it . but NO “HAND” still remains a bad album for me no matter how many times i listen to it
xarrrr said on April 3, 2002 18:51:
i totally agree.
they all keep getting better all over again. at the moment i am really into joyride again, which wasn’t my favourite at first...........but i love it now!!!!!!!
