Do you ever listern to a new song and get goose bumps on your arms, where your hair on your neck and arms stand on end, and get a shiver.
or is it just me lol
i just wondered what was the last couple of roxette songs to do that for you .
mine would be,
1 The center of the heart- when i first heard it off the internet loved it. big shiver factor on that one,
2 Stars - when i got the album, first album of roxette i really bought, the begining bit, where marie sings ow yeeeeah, big goose bump factor.
3 fool - when i first heard it off internet, i though wow modern hotblooded, goose bumps again. lol
havent had one since them , :-S think i nearly did on first hearing breathe though lol

the one i loved the most at the first hearing was:
salvation and almost unreal demo (had not heard the real version then)

The strings section on “I Don’t Want To Get Hurt” does it to me all the time. And sometimes “It Hurts”. ;)

voices, vulnerable and secrets that she keeps.
also Per’s Sheena is a punk rocker and there is my baby.
god, he’s such a good artist!

yes it happened:
“Listen to your heart” (when she sings “b4 u tell him goodbye and then music slows down and then u hear the guitars)
“Dressed for Success” (it makes your day)
“Shadow of a doubt” ( i love the drama in it)
“Spending my time” (cause it represents each and every one of us)
“Things will never be the same” (same as in Shadow of a doubt)
“CBB” (when she sings “i still feel the heat” and in the beginning)
“Im sorry” (the way she sings “u know im sorry i made u cry” she sounds angry)
Fireworks (i love “runaway” songs)
“Queen of rain” (cause its classy-love the music)
“Real sugar” (cause rock is back and marie sounds great having fun)
“Looking for jane” (it reminds me of someone)
“My world my love my life” (the best performance by marie in Room Service)

Right now “Listen to your heart”... such a true song.
Furthermore, “it hurts”, “See me”, “MWMLML” , “Sleeping in my car”, “Viskar” (I love Per’s voice when he sings like this) and most of the songs when performed live.
CU,
MC

EVERY song by Roxette, Per and Marie, gives me goosebumps...no other artist does that to me on a regular basis, Per’s bright powerpop melodies, Marie’s singing on the ballads, their harmonies, the works!! The arrangements too.
I REALLY love “Fingertips’93”, “Stars”, “Entering Your Heart”, “My World, My Love, My Life”, gosh, TOO many!!

@ powerpoplarry
Yea, it’s funny that although I like many other bands & artists, too, it’s only Roxette that really gives these funny feelings...It must be something biochemical :-)

Salvation - everytime i hear it.
And when the bridge of A Thing About You builds up to the chorus, i also get it.
dizzydaleks said on March 4, 2003 23:36:
Ok, well :
1) The moaning on ’Shadow of a Doubt’ gets to me
2) Queen of Rain - ALL of it
3) So Far Away - “come inside me NOW!” dirty if u want it to be, but pure emotion otherwise
and ...
the BIG one ....
4) In YDUM - “Tell me why, it gets harder to know where I stand ... I guess loneliness found a new friend ... here I am” .... Phew, just gone typing it ...
Only rox can do that to me ...
powerpoplarry said on March 5, 2003 06:04:
Hey AnimalKingdom, only true powerpop or good Europop does that to me, with the richest melodies and most genius hooks. Other bands + artists of those ilks give me goosebumps, but Roxette do it to me the most, them and Cheap Trick.
