Every rox album has that song that you actually skip whenever you play it...
my favorite skip-hits:
Look Sharp: View from a hill
Joyride: Physical fascination
Tourism: Heart shaped see
CBB: Vulnerable(sometimes crashing guitars)
DBUGTTG: Vulnerable (surprise, surprise)
HAND: Waiting for the rain
Room Service: Little Girl
what’s your fav skiplist?

Big applause to the one who knows which song I’m going to skip from TBH!!! which I don’t actually have right now :-(

I only skip Soul Deep (Pearls of passion version) and of course Vulnerable. Sometimes when I am in bad mood I skip Queen of rain, I hate that song from time to time.
That’s all...! (-:

PEARLS OF PASSION: Goodbye to You, From One Heart to Another & Like Lovers Do
LOOK SHARP!: The Look & Listen to Your Heart
JOYRIDE: Joyride & Soul Deep
TOURISM: Joyride & sometimes Queen of Rain (due to track no. 15; at this point I might change the disc)
CRASH! BOOM! BANG!: -
HAVE A NICE DAY: YCPYAAWAG & I Was So Lucky
ROOM SERVICE: Make My Head Go Pop & Fool
This list varies...For instance, YCPYAAWAG was my fav song some time ago. And I don’t hate the greatest hit singles (The Look, Joyride) - they’re just a bit boring nowadays and the actual albums have better offerings... ;)

“The heart shaped sea” and ” I was so lucky” are great songs, even better than some “famous” ones. Lately I’ve been skipping more and more songs because of their low quality. For example, in “Tourism” I like all the songs and with “joyride” the same. But in the Room service album and Have a nice day I only listen to a very few songs.

Santi, “watercolours in the rain”, “never is a long time”, “so far away”, “I was so lucky” and “you don’t understand me” are great songs for me, hehe. I suppose it’s because I love ballads (simple ballads). I prefer these songs to “spending my time”, “fading like a flower”, etc...which are power ballads, singles and so “roxette hits”.

pietROxette said on November 8, 2002 12:50:
I never skip songs. I like to listen to an album as a whole. Since the tracks on a specific album have been complied for that album by the artist.
Santi said on November 8, 2002 13:47:
@Pietro: Per has said many times he thinks of Roxette’s songs as being able (all of them) to be singles, so I guess Roxette albums are not thought as “a whole”, because it’s just a bunch of songs. I guess they select the ones that sound better in the moment they have to choose...
And BTW I forgot the Ballad Hits:
- Ok, I just like 4 songs in this whole album... A Thing About You, Breathe, Milk And Toast And Honey and Fading Like A Flower... The rest and one after the other gets so much boring.... yesterday I fell asleep listening to it for the first time in the train back home!

Ingo said on November 7, 2002 15:23:
The only songs I skip are 7Twenty7 and Physical Fascination. But in all I don’t think its good to skip because I had Rox songs which I did not like for a long time but after often listening to them today some are one of my favourites!
