Just wanna say I think that “Breathe” is one of the GREATEST ballads Roxette ever done.

So sad it won’t be a single !!! It’s PERFECT !!!

I think it’s a mix of “Wish I Could Fly”, “Crazy About You” and a little bit of “Bringing Me Down To My Knees”.

Thanks Per and Marie for such a pearl !!!!
All the best

Although Marie has been losing a lot of voice lately, i think Breathe is a great song and it´s much better than ATAY. It must have been the first single from BH

@ Rayner

On what basis do you say that “Marie has been losing a lot of voice lately...”?

Are you referring to ’The Weight of the World’?
If you are, let me remind you that the song was recorded in 2000 and the little ’rattle’ just gives the song more depth.

Marie has told sometimes her voice doesn´t reach as high as it did some time ago.... u can compare, for example, IMHBL and Breathe and maybe you´ll know what i mean, but it´s okay, i think this new song is wonderful

OMG it mixes some of my favourites songs!!!! But I will wait for the CD to listen to it :)

i just find it odd amrie no longer does ballads that require her to use the higher range of her voice :)

Wow, what a song!!!
This is exactly what I missed for so long, a great ballad by Roxette....:-))

About Marie’s voice:
I think her lower voice sounds much better, that gives some songs a special touch..

’Breathe’ is such a PERFECT ballad!! so DAMN PERFECT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
it should have been a single INSTEAD of ATAY!!!

rox’s best newest song!!, in my opinion:

1. Breathe
2. It hurts
3. The weight of the world
4. ATAY
5. Everyday
