Most people who don’t like ROXETTE
have only listened to the singles, they have never seen or listened to any of their live recordings.
I decided to do a test on people I know and friends of theirs whom I had never met before.
I played a C.D. Bootleg copy of LIVE-ISM, starting with Soul Deep and continued into THE LOOK.
During Jonas Isacsson’s guitar solo in Soul Deep one person said “Fuckoff, this is’nt ROXETTE”
I had the result that I expected, they were impresed but were not going to rush to the local Record Store and buy all things ROXETTE.
I only intended to make them look really stupid
and see that ROXETTE is so many different things.
I made an effort to make them listen to one album
from star to finish, I had selected my favorite TOURISM, they all said it was less commercial than any of the sons they has listened to in previous years on the radio...
Job Done.

i know a lot of people who don‘t like roxette and they can’t understand that i love roxette. i don’t mind but i think that roxette doesn’t fit to the today’s listener’s taste that good anymore. people forgot about roxette and there are music stiles that are more actual today i think.
