Hello,
Have looked on the site where it say’s the Video for ATAY will premier - can’t find it. Anyone else had any luck?
Have been reading a lot about Marie yesterday - everyone seems to know about it - even my Mum who doesn’t really like Roxette that much mentioned it when she called me yesterday. I hope Marie recovers quickly. My Mum’s Mum died in her 40’s with a Brain Tumour, my Dad’s Mum found out that she had one in her early sixties, she’s now approaching her 80th birthday! I wish Marie all the love in the world.

I can´t find it either. I have emailed the reporter in Aftonbladet asking if they have re-scheduled it due to Marie´s illness. It was not sure if they would do so, but according to what Marie said to Per - everything has to go as normal...
let´s see if they answer back.
Ah so it looks like TV4 had the premiere.. lets see if Aftonbladet does too!
thomasc said on September 17, 2002 08:47:
My Dad’s mum is fine now - that was my point. She found that she had the tumour, was operated on and has bee fine ever since - over 15 years later. Thank you though :)
What’s the link to the video on the other site?
Jud (moderator) said on September 17, 2002 08:49:
Check out tv4.se ;))
They have the video there!
I am trying to record it, if i succeed it will be online soon (pietro?;)
gyllene_tjej said on September 17, 2002 08:49:
i saw it on tv, not internet, but you can take a look around at www.tv4.se

I hate TV4 streams, it will be difficult to download it.... But we’re working on it! ;-P
Jud (moderator) said on September 17, 2002 09:04:
The video is already in Aftonbladet ;))
we were a bit tooo impatient LOL
i think the recording works with this one.. !
HAve it!! ;)

Yea, the video is exactly what I expected, so its good. At the start of the song Per’ s doing that backwards thing again! Cool.

Another quite terrible Åkerlund misch masch... :(
gyllene_tjej said on September 17, 2002 14:39:
okej, now i have seen the video like dozens of times and i can finally say what i think :) I like it in general, and here are some details:
i LOVE the way both per and marie look! Per’s shirt is actually really cool and I love Marie’s hairdo :)
I would prefer if there was more Per and Marie in the video - for instance they could be the actors themselves :)))
and last but not least, is the video REALLY new? For me it is very much the mix of Un dia sin ti ( spanish Spending my time clip), WICF and Almost unreal. Anyone who feels the same?
Rox on! :)
SirMikeAlot said on September 17, 2002 14:49:
thought it was similar to WICF - definately, the way the screen shots change alot (don’t really like that style for this ballad, but i like the video clip all the same)
japeke said on September 17, 2002 14:49:
It also looks like TCOTH and WICF, if you look at the people laying on the bed... But that’s because of the style of JONAS i Think. And i like the new video.
JAAP

Jud (moderator) said on September 17, 2002 14:59:
WICF + TCOTH = ATAY...
Jonas was saying in an interview about the video that it was hard to come up with new ideas.. well sorry but.. what is new in this? same dark - style videos (a bit darker and we see nothing!) and same bed-stuff.. I would say this DOES lack originality :P
japeke said on September 17, 2002 15:13:
@ xarrrr: Was that a comment on Judiths message??? If so: :-) LOL!
@Judith: You are right.... but I really love the clip though.....
little-miss-sorrow said on September 17, 2002 15:30:
i like it. agree with gyllene_tjej, a bit more per and marie would have been nice but we can’t change it... though i really don’t like marie’s clothes. reminds me of the clothes i sometimes have to wear when i work at the reception of our hospital... it’s weird!
gyllene_tjej said on September 17, 2002 16:10:
@l-m-s: haha :) She looks like a good schoolgirl in these clothes but her messy hairdo says something else :)))
Sascha said on September 17, 2002 16:15:
It’s really beautiful and suits the song very well. Yes, some details remind me of olders videos, nothing bad if the result is such a masterpiece. I like to have actors in it. It’s more interesting to non fans this way.
Pascal said on September 17, 2002 16:54:
- Mix between WICF, TCOTH and AU
- Dark
- Only 1 location
- Only 4 different people in it
- Nothing new
- Nothing spectacular
- Old-fashioned
- It’s a pity, I don’t expect much airplay on TV
etrejos said on September 17, 2002 19:07:
I really like it, I like Jonas style and the ’dark’ thing doesn’t bother me.
I imagine MTV...
“A men in his underwear - nudity and sexual depravation”... CENSORED
“People crying and suffering - may lead to depression and suicide”.... CENSORED
“It’s Roxette...” CENSORED
Alienista said on September 17, 2002 19:09:
They both are so pretty & nice !!! I love the way they both looked!!
Marie & Per rule!!!
roxtexanet said on September 17, 2002 21:32:
@etrejos: Ha ha ha ha! We laugh, but just watch!!! (:
I agree with Judith’s comment that this is like a hybrid between “TCOTH” and “WICF”... I actually wrote exactly that to a friend before coming here to see what others had to say! The one thing I like (besides Marie’s little smiles... very nice!) a lot is the “symmetry” idea... not especially original, but works here anyway... keeps you watching if only to see how well the two halves match up (:
kiwijazza said on September 18, 2002 07:36:
I’m enjoying it a lot! :D
I see Marie’s got a slight Almost Unreal look with her hair again. :)
kiwijazza said on September 18, 2002 07:41:
Very nice!
I see that Marie has a slight Almost Unreal hairstyle again. :)

@Pacal: Couldn’t have said it better, the same thing over and over and over makes it boring after a while.
carbon_boy said on September 18, 2002 21:16:
Yes, its the same old thing like the early and the latest MTH vids - most of you are probably ECSTATIC - seeing that you have been moaning and groaning that Roxette dont make video’s like The Look, Dressed for Success (?!WTF?!), IMHBL, etc anymore.... and now they’ve given you exactly that - a video that’s just as pointless as your favourite vids. No underlining meanings, no in your face visuals, etc. It has some elements of the Jonas touch in it: SURPRISE SURPRISE!!! Jonas DID direct it - its his style....DUH!
How many times have I said it before? We dont live in 1990 anymore ppl. Its a new millenium - a decade later - you guys dont wear the same fashion styles anymore, etc. Visual design is constantly changing, so get with the programme, open your eyes and look around. Its such a shame that most of the ppl on this forum are so close-minded. At least Gessle gave you the finger and painted his nails black! LOL!
So, let the flaming begin! (Vixter, how do you deal with it? LOL!)
zeeshan said on September 18, 2002 22:01:
I just saw it once.. I guess MARIE looks a bit like what she did in Almost Unreal video. Per with his usual bad hairstyle!!

WHAT DID I SAY?! LOL!!!!
aguivia said on February 16, 2003 17:26:
this video is for me the best video make of roxette, because it’s very romantic .
gyllene_tjej said on September 17, 2002 08:42:
Nyhetsmorgon had the premiere today so I saw it there, but i see nothing on Aftonbladet either. Maybe later?
all the best for your dad’s mum thomas :)
