I hear a lot of people saying that “Try” is a bad song and that its one of the weakest Roxette songs ever.I have to tell you that “Try” really helped me in a situation that I was in some months ago. I just listened to every single word in that song and I really felt uplifted. I think its a very good song and defenitly one of Pers best lyrics ever.

It’s a good song, but not “a very good song”.
Helping you in your works doesn’t mean that it’s a very good song.
In music,Being good means being beautiful,not being helpful in problems.Although the most of beautiful songs are helpful for the mind.

I still don’t like this song, with friends we sing “cry...just a little bit louder” instead :))

i think ’try’ is a very good and beautiful song,you have to listen to the lyrics:if someone wants you to bleed and it feels like you’re dying,don’t make the moves you don’t need don’t cry,just say ba-bye.
i think it’s one of the best tracks on the room service album

wel.. well...well...
to tell you the truth, the lyrics are good but not the song, and sorry if i ofend anybody...
but this song is good if you are having troubles to go to the restroom... kinda constipated...
” try just a little bit harder”
“youll survive... just try”

@GEBO:I agree that TASTE is so important in music.

Its a good song! Like it especially how the seems to go faster after the 2nd chorus...

And there’s a great (but strange) sound when marie is singing:

“if someone wants you to bleed...and you feel like you’re dying” (the lyrics are something like this?)

And right after this line...some sort of guitar sound....

And marie returns with:

“don’t make the moves....”

great!

Close 2U!!! I like this moment also!
I still believe that it’s a wonderful song!
Tastes differ, & some of you may have your own associations with it... hmmm... but I like it!
The picture that I have in my mind listening to it is some kind of box-tournament...
