Ballads are Boring!!!!

After listening to 4 new Roxette-songs it came to my mind: too many ballads are killing!!
Ballads don’t make the world go round, they come in hand when your world suddenly stops...
...but it is the Happy Popcorn Hits that makes my world spinning! We need more of them and less ballads.
Another reason for it:
the Ballads are becoming predictable. Probably Per is better in writing pop-stuff.
(Or maybe the above also counts for Per: it is not normal to write so many ballads when your life is still spinning!)

Popcorn! I like that... a star made out of popcorn for the cover... has a very buttery feel to it (:

@roxtexanet
I think you may be on to something there! That would be a great idea for cover art. :)

Indeed about the pocorn-cover. I really hope that they really do that when t’s time to pick a cover.
Please Per and Marie!

Remember the words of Gessle in the recent TDR interview:
“Somehow we always end up with too many ballads. Mysteriously...”
I also think there are too many ballads. I’m waiting for the Popcorn album!

You know what I think is predictable: A CD full of ballads when it’s called Ballad Hits...sigh!
