"Voices" and "The Weight Of The World"

2 replies

Apparently these 2 tracks seem to be different. First the latter one was recently released and recorded for the 2001 album RS whereas the first one appeared on the rare first album POP of 1986. Quite a big diference in time... secondly the 86 track is produced in quite a magestical kind of way..great drums and a wonderful vocal arrengements.. Per and Marie have here what is still for me one of their most amazing duets. Great melody Marie...by the way....
What i find impressive is that such melodic trademark has influenced Per is someway at least this is what i believe!
While listening to TWOTW the b-side of ATAY and one of the 4-track EP bonus of TBH i was amazed with a certain similarity between the 2 songs...more precisily on the chorus...the melodic line and the background vocals....anyway this is what i feel after so many years listening to Roxette’s music you know very well where to find bits and pieces of old songs on the new ones even if the production has changed so much...
Judge for yourself...:)

rox.

I don’t think them two songs are similar to each other at all... well, the style is sorta the same, but just as How do you do and Crush on you are similar...
I have to say though, that I really like voices, one of my favorites! I also adore weihgt of the world, especially when Marie starts singing her part...
