Roxette-atic said on :

I would say

1 I call your name- one of my all time favourites
2 Listen to your heart- i got into rox becoz of ltyh
3 The Look - this one feels right all the time
4 Paint- very difficult, but Paint wins anyway
5 Joyride- The Rox theme song...
6 Hotblooded - Marie ROX!!!
7 Spending My Time - another one of my absolute favourites. Loves the bridge
8 Queen Of Rain- this one is beautiful
9 Crash!Boom!Bang!- I kick it up, I kick it down... love it
10Lies - best song on C!B!B!. Love the crashing guitars!
11Whats She Like- Love the lyrics- alawyas nice to listen to this one.Would love to hear it live
12Vulnerable - I used o not like it so much- off course I love it now
13Wish I Could Fly- best song from HAND-amazing bass line
14Crush On You- WHY NOT A SINGLE? WWWHHHYYY???
15The Centre Of The Heart- another supersong. Surpriced that it didnt top the charts everywhere.
16It Takes You No time to get here- best song from RS. Love the strings in the middle.
17The sweet hello, the sad goodbye -see motivation 14.

For me:
1 I Call Your Name - no doubt, I can’t stand Soul deep
2 Listen To Your Heart - as it got famous on its own, did not need a movie
3 Dangerous - I am VERY fed up with The look and Dangerous is such a Gessle power :)
4 Paint - undoubtedly a lost pearl
5 How Do You do - similar reason as no.3 and funnier lyric too
6 Knockin On Every Door - kinda both...but chose the latter coz of Per in it :)
7 Fading Like A Flower - great memories after RS live with BUNNY!!
8 Queen Of Rain - for not so long... RS live did the job again :)
9 Almost Unreal - even if the film flopped
10Lies - funny and rocked live back in 94
11Whats She Like kind of personal stuff here
12 Vulnerable - GESSLE!!!!
13Salvation - nice lyric in my opinion
14Crush On You - no doubt about it, one of THE BEST songs ever!
15Real Sugar - once again filled with bunny love
16It Takes You No Time To Get Here *SIGH*
17 Entering Your Heart coz of the chorus :-))

roxtexanet said on :

1 I Call Your Name - never could figure out what it is about this song I like so much... the chorus must be THE MOST repetitive ever...
2 Listen To Your Heart - that was a hard one, both songs are phenomenal
3 The Look - one of the best pop songs ever, even 14 years later...
4 Paint - love the bridge
5 How Do You do - I get tired of “Joyride” sometimes, but never “How Do You Do!”
6 Hotblooded - 10 years ago I would have said “Knockin’”, but “Hotblooded” still sounds great today
7 Fading Like A Flower - one of my favourite songs ever
8 The Rain - I’ve always thought “The Rain” was far better than “QoR” and was very surpised when “QoR” was chosen as a single over “The Rain”
9 Almost Unreal - this one was REALLY hard! Both songs are brilliant, but “Almost Unreal” has really beautiful lyrics
10Sleeping In My Car - no contest, “SIMC” *STILL* kicks ass, I think it’s the one Rox song that every fan loves
11Whats She Like - should have been a single, one of the first times I heard dance beats in a ballad that wasn’t a remix
12 You Dont Understand Me - easy one, I can’t stand “Vulnerable”, although it has nice lyrics
13Wish I Could Fly - at first “Salvation” was my favourite song on “HaND”, but “WICF” is really a classic, I never get tired of it
14Stars - I love the lead up to the chorus and that Roxette had the courage to try something new and keep it interesting
15The Centre Of The Heart - one of my favourite songs ever, I never get tired of it, if I was on a desert island and could have just one single, this would be it (:
16MWMLML - another really tough one... how can you force people to choose?? (: “My World” wins out because Marie melts me with that bit at the end of the last chorus where she wails then whispers all in a matter of two seconds...
17Entering Your Heart - this song is SO GOOD! “The Sweet Hello” is awesome, too, but I love this hint at a new sound - as always, when Rox tries something different they succeed in spades...

This was really hard! You did a great job of pairing up the songs!

Mfan28179-Jason said on :

Woah. “Crush On You” is huge among the fans. Most of you picked this over “Stars.” Here are mine:

1 Soul Deep
2 Listen To Your Heart - This is tough. I would probably almost call it a tie with “It Must Have Been Love.”
3 The Look
4 Dance Away
5 Joyride
6 Hotblooded
7 Spending My Time
8 Queen Of Rain
9 Crash!Boom!Bang!
10 Sleeping In My Car
11 Whats She Like - tough call here
12 Vulnerable - very close again
13 Wish I Could Fly
14 Stars
15 Real Sugar (probably my favorite Rox song ever)
16 MWMLML
17 The Sweet Hello

Mfan28179-Jason said on :

Am I the only one who likes “Dance Away” more than “Paint”? lol

Peppermint said on :

1 I Call Your Name (maybe heard SD too often)
2 Listen To Your Heart (the best live video ever)
3 Dangerous (my personal favourite!)
4 Paint (perfect mix of their vocals)
5 Joyride (somehow means more to me thatn HDYD)
6 Hotblooded (so powerful!)
7 Spending My Time (same reason as in 1)
8 Queen Of Rain (underestimated)
9 Almost Unreal (never liked C!B!B! that much)
10 Lies (better giutars)
11Whats She Like (a typical rox song)
12 Vulnerable (YDUM is not my cup of tea)
13Wish I Could Fly (great song - great video)
14Stars (something I never expected)
15The Centre Of The Heart (mostly skip Real Sugar when I listen to RS and go straight to TCOTH)
16MWMLML (the better ballad)
17Entering Your Heart (should have been on the album)

Sascha said on :

1 Soul Deep (never liked I Call Your Name)
2 Listen To Your Heart (made me a roxfan)

4 Paint (love the high chorus after the bridge)
