Hello pals from everywhere!! I´m greeting you from the nowadays hot Argentina.
I just want to ask you what do you think of Asa Gessle. What do you know about her, her past and nowadays activities. Do you think she influences PG´s song writing...apart from Joyride, of course.
Here in Argentina we are so bad that we need a big injection of optimism so Rox fans here are eager to listen to something new...or something old...but something at all!!!!...we need some hapyness!!!
Thank you very much!
Lots of love from Southamerica!

she must be an angel or something. ;o) gyllene_tjej, where are you?
gyllene_tjej said on May 6, 2002 17:50:
I am here!!!! :) Of course, how could I miss SUCH topic :))) So, whatever you all wanna say about Åsa, then one thing is for sure: she IS an angel. She is so adorable, delicate and sweet. I love her ways and always smiling eyes! Bunny has got great taste! I love Woody darling! *sigh*

Something about her makes you stay silent when she is standing in front of you. She has the same strange and strong radiation as her husband. I think they are both from Mars.... ;))))
Rox-Argentina said on May 7, 2002 03:39:
I think she IS a godness, I love her cos I love everything that makes Mr. PG feel happy!
By the by have you got any interesting picture of Mrs Gessle to post here and decorate the topic with her powerful image.
Thank you very much for your answers.

and she worked in a travel agency, right????
now shé´s working in the rox-management, i guess per said something like this.
little-miss-sorrow said on May 8, 2002 17:58:
she worked as a model in her early twenties and i heard somewhere that she was in paris for a year to work there. but i’m not sure bout that. anyway, she could still be a model since she’s a REAL beauty... ;o)
Rox-Argentina said on May 9, 2002 03:41:
Yeah, I think she was a photo-model in her early twenties and then she worked as an assistant in a travel agency. Thats why she works in the Roxette management and she is in charge of the election of hotels and so on whe Roxette tours.
By the way...do you have any idea where Per met Asa. They met in a disco, didn´t they?...but..Per in a disco????, I think he said he is not made for dancing!!
Bye,Bye.
gyllene_tjej said on May 9, 2002 07:41:
Yeah, weird ;-) Per only remembers that she was dancing and he was drinking :))))
Parre said on May 9, 2002 09:16:
i guess i read in “roxette - the book” that they met the first time on a party. but theydidnt talked to each other. a girlfriend of Åsa envited per to her birthdayparty later and then they talked and per could not forget Åsa so they met again and again.
(is this right???)

little-miss-sorrow said on May 9, 2002 17:34:
@parre: i think it’s right. i remember having read it as well.
Rox-Argentina said on May 10, 2002 03:42:
Hej Viking thanks for the nice pictures!
Hey swedish friends does anyone live near the Gessle family?...what do they do?...just to gossip about something!
gyllene_tjej said on May 12, 2002 10:28:
Sarah saw someone cleaning windows in Per’s stockholm apartment the other day! It wasn’t either Per or Woody, but at least they keep their windows clean ;-)))))
xarrrr said on May 12, 2002 17:56:
OH NO! the above link aint working!!! NOOOOO!
there are some great pics there and i wanna see them again!!
SORT IT OUT... FOR THE LOVE OF PER!
GESSLE FOR PRESIDENT, WOO-YEA! :o)
Rox-Argentina said on May 13, 2002 04:14:
Mr. Gessle for president...Argentina needs someone with intelligent ideas like you!. I vote for him!!!
Anyway what do you think of Gabriel...he´s an angel, isn´t he?
Bye!!!
xarrrr said on May 13, 2002 10:30:
Gabriel could be a little prince any day, he is so cute!!! bless!
Lucky for having such great parents, you can tell who he gets his sweet looks from!
GO GESSLE GO! ;o)
gyllene_tjej said on May 13, 2002 20:50:
YES! She is awesome regardless her age :) and besides, what is nice in these skinny and flat girls considered to be top models anyway? ;-)
Rox-Argentina said on May 14, 2002 03:22:
I totally agree with you Gyllene tjtej, Asa is an angel, she is really beatiful. She could be a model if she wants. Nowadays you don´t need to show your bones to be somebody. Nowadays you have to show your personality, who you are, what you can do, what you are qualified to do! the body doesn´t really acounts anymore! But apart from what I said....where is Asa a fatty girl?, Are your eyes right?, she´s a mother do you remember?, the body changes after a kid! and for me Woody is in an excelente line!
little-miss-sorrow said on May 14, 2002 04:41:
“still be a model with that body? ...m’pfff....”
YEAH!! easily! ;o)
m-cvk said on May 14, 2002 09:59:
Åsa helped/co-wrote with the lyrics of GT’s song “Det är blommor som har fångat dej”. In the comments (in the booklet of ” Halmstads pärlor” ) Per says something about Åsa being an ” underestimated feminist”...
gyllene_tjej said on May 14, 2002 11:07:
@Arlanda: me too! This particular line completely changed my life... and yes it refers to Per and Woody :)
“...En gång i livet möter du nån som ändrar det som sker, som ändrar allt du ser. Och det är allt du förstår allt du kan och allt du vet, det är din nya verklighet...”
Arlanda said on May 14, 2002 19:36:
@gyllene_tjej I really have to tell you something: I LOVE the story you wrote for Chanties site! :o) Hope you know wich one I mean ... Everything sems so REAL, but I pray that this never ever comes true cos Woody’s sooo sweet! PG as well ...
BTW ARLANDA & VIKING = me.
gesslefan_no1 said on May 14, 2002 19:54:
DET ÄR BLOMMOR SOM HAR FÅNGAT DIG is such a lovely song...so very beautiful...I can´t understand how people do when they write such songs...but of course PG can, he is the best, isn´t he !!!
Parre said on May 14, 2002 20:13:
can , please, be someone so kind and let me know where this song is released?
i mean on which album?
gyllene_tjej said on May 14, 2002 21:50:
@Arlanda: THX! Gr8 you liked it! And believe me, I found it very hard to make Åsa the victim... little-miss-sorrow and I had this discussion before... My heart bled each time I had to hurt Woody... Did not want it at all as I love her, but you know, sth had to happen if Per and Marie were to be together ;-)
the good side is the end of the story...there it seems like the whole thing never really happened ;-)
gyllene_tjej said on May 14, 2002 22:07:
oh and btw Parre, you can find this song on both Gyllene’s Halmstads pärlor and Konstpaus CDs. the song was written some time in 94 in Stockholm by Åsa. It seemed that GT guys worked hard ( over 3 hours it says in the booklet) to find the right arrangement :) Thank God they did find it...as now we have this masterpiece :)))
little-miss-sorrow said on May 15, 2002 18:27:
and my heart bled each time i read it... ;o) jeez! when i read the ending of the story i was SO happy everything tourned out to be a fanfiction thingie but then... what did i have to find... per thinking this could have been true... argh!
anyways, i’m still your biggest fan gyllene_tjej! wonderful story but i mentioned that before...
little-miss-sorrow said on May 15, 2002 18:28:
oh, about det är blommor som har fångat dig... i loved that song right from the start and i was even happier when i saw åsa contributed to it. per once said there were a few more songs they have written together...
Arlanda said on May 15, 2002 20:52:
I think they should write togther more often, that would e cool ... BTW what do you think about the song “Viskar” PG has dedicated that one to woody. I like it but it’s a bit sad.
gesslefan_no1 said on May 15, 2002 21:01:
yeah, viskar is great !!! But as you said, a little bit sad...
Rox-Argentina said on May 16, 2002 03:46:
Yeah Viskar is a very nice song.
I can´t imagine where Per gets the inspiration for writing such beatiful songs cos they are always talking about couples that break down or about imposible loves. I don´t really imagine cos he is supossed to be very happy with his wife. Anyway he dedicated his third solo album to Asa...I love “I´ll be alright”. And from CBB I think he dedicated Vulnerable to her too.
Do you think Per is able to cheat Asa with another woman???
gyllene_tjej said on May 16, 2002 08:01:
NO NO NO NO NO!!!! I don’t think he would ever cheat on Woody!!! After all he is a sweet bunny...and in my opinion way too shy and afraid of his reputation to get involved in any love affair... If he ever does we will kill him - here again l-m-s will support me!
And btw, who BETTER could he find in this world??? ( yeah, me ;-DDDDD)
Viskar is beautiful, agreed! But I don’t consider it sad, after all he sings about a girl who brings hope and consolation for him! And...
“...jag blundar och tappar andan varje gång, viskar saker jag aldrig vetat om...”
I REALLY wonder what kind of things she whispers to sweet bunny, inspiring him of such feelings! ;-)))
Parre said on May 16, 2002 09:45:
well, ehem, can someone translate the meaning of the songs for me??
i dont know them and i dont understand swedish but i would like to know what you all are talking about and what makes you so happy.
Thanx a lot
gyllene_tjej said on May 16, 2002 11:41:
here’s the translation I made of my absolute fave song! :) Enjoy.
Det är blommor som har fångat dej
(It’s flowers that captured you)
Once in your life you meet someone
Who changes what is to be,
Who changes what you see
Once in your life you meet someone
Who changes what is to be,
Who changes all you see
And that’s all you understand
All you can and all you know
It’s your new reality
And if you want to get out of here
There is no way to go
For, who would like to leave scent and spring?
It’s flowers that captured you
Captured you
Once in your life you win all
When nothing goes wrong in heart’s big game
Once in your life you win all
When nothing goes wrong in heart’s red game
And what should stop you
All there is has just happened
Was a taste of a kiss
And if you want to get out of here....
m-cvk said on May 16, 2002 11:48:
I also love Viskar. Great lyrics, great music and I love Marie’s backing vocals. So sweet!
Arlanda said on May 16, 2002 16:38:
Yeah, the backing vocals of thi song are great! As always when MF’s singnig ... *sigh* I’m totally addicted by her voice. ;)
Now we’re taltking about Marie. Do you want to see some nice pics of her & Micke too?
There you go:
http://home.arcor.de/sandra-schneider/marie/
Hope you enjoy them, some of them are really funny I think ... :o)
Parre said on May 16, 2002 19:37:
@ gyllene_tjej : thanx for the translation, it sounds beautiful, hope i can hear it sometime :))
little-miss-sorrow said on May 16, 2002 20:15:
*just a quick reply to support gyllene_tjej*
sure we’d kill him if he ever cheated on woody. jeez, how stupid would he have to be to do something like that? ;o) and if he did all i ever believed in would break together within a minute... so per, behave! hehe.
Rox-Argentina said on May 17, 2002 03:55:
Do you ever listened about a story that involved Per with a british female reporter? I think I read about it in a web site but I don´t remember where. I think it´s all lies..la,la,la,la,la,la....it´s all lies!
Bye!
roxette-lover said on May 17, 2002 16:04:
well i met asa once in tylösand last year and and i can just say that she is wonderful.
Rox-Argentina said on May 18, 2002 03:57:
So they are A PERFECT COUPLE, aren´t they?
What about more kids?, I honestly don´t see Per “driving a weekend” car full of kids. What do you think?
Parre said on May 18, 2002 11:34:
a second child for per, well, why not.
i think he´s a good dad so why not a little brother or sister for gabriel. one who is as cute as he is :))
StillFar said on May 6, 2002 14:42:
Don’t know much about her, but met her twice (unfortunately never met Per & Marie). She was amazingly nice!!!!!
