Um, I have the Japanese version of RS, and “Entering Your Heart” is on there as a bonus track, and it fits AMAZINGLY well!! It’s one of my fave songs on the disc, and one of my fave Rox tunes ever recorded, just beautiful!!

I also have the Japanese version and Entering Your Heart is on there. It does fit quite well, one of the best songs RS has IMO.

Yes, it should have been included...I also would have liked that Fool had appeared as a more electronic version (like they first had in mind).
Little Miss Sorrow would have been a good alternative for replacing Make My Head Go Pop.

It’s quite simple: Japanese record companies charge purchasers more for their albums, so they always need some incentive - That’s why the Japanese fans *almost* always get something more. If an extra song isn’t available, then the artwork will sometimes be changed.

Nope Animal, “Fool” is PERFECT as IS, awesome guitar-fuelled powerpop!! Many times, electronics ruin powerpop. And it woulda been a crime if MMHGP had been replaced, that song is KILLER!! The whole RS album is perfect, almost their best one, after CBB, espesh with EYH added at the end!! Just awesome!! LMS coulda been a cool 14th track though, absolutely!!
And Chris, EYH dull??!!?? What are you, nuts?? That’s my fave Rox track, after ON!!!! Just sheer perfection, and the best Rox track Marie sings lead on. I do like “Try” as well, has kind of an Annie Lennox/soul feel to it, but not nearly as much as EYH... Just my opinion, of course...

Entering is awesome... come over and put it in my car stereo I’ll show you what I mean *grins*
Now my ultimate, it’s gotta piss you off Roxette mistake, was not releaseing CRAZY ABOUT YOU as a single!!!! That song is like a hidden gem!! You know it would have hit the charts.
As per RS. Not a big fan of it but it is better than HAND. Maily because they are trying too hard to be a bit too mainstream. I think Rox needs another CBB and fast! Something with an edge.
“Try” put me in a coma. “Fool” is really a fun song! Should have been released during summer would have charted nicely as would have “My World....”

I think the same can be said about their other b-sides as well. Many people think that some of their b-sides are better than the album cuts.
As for “Entering Your Heart,” perhaps Per/Marie didn’t think it fit well with the rest of the songs on the album. And plus, at the time, Per had this “thing” for the new album to be short and simple - that is, 12 tracks, 40 or so minutes.
