This is just a stupid discussion. Roxette’s songs are so different and I’m often wondering what songs are liked by all the other Roxette fans in the world. But isn’t it that fact that makes Roxette so successful and great?
I only know a few songs where almost all Roxette fans have the same opinion about: TL,J,IMHBL,LTYH,... not many when you consider that there are almost 200 songs available...
EDIT: Maybe there is another album where all the people have same opinions: Baladas en espanol
Roxoholic said on May 29, 2003 14:04:
Santi: From Head To Toe is a Roxette song (well, a Roxette demo that is).
Both Per and Marie are singing on it. Per & Marie are Roxette, thus it´s a song by Roxette.
BTW, I think it´s a great song.

Mmm... it’s very situational. I used to hate Soul Deep and Stars (yes, that most hated song by many fans) but now i love em!
Then, I thought Sleeping in My Car would b my fave forever, but how come it sounds so annoying now?
ps: Stars is actually addicting, after skipping it for years! :)
yellowtigger said on May 29, 2003 15:11:
I always hate: CHURCH OF YOUR HEART.
I dont know why, but this song is not good for me...
Also, ALMOST UNREAL and TRY.
The best songs: SILVER BLUE and RUN TO YOU....
My first Rox album was TOURISM, im in love too with THE RAIN. Dont you?
m-cvk said on May 29, 2003 15:15:
I love almost every song except View from a hill. Place your love, I don’t like either but I like the way Marie does the backing vocals and Per’s deep backing vocals voice (I’ve played it like a karaoke version and I heard the backing vocals very well).
CU,
MC

mariok: i consider this topic no stupid at all!! the idea is know the tastes and opinions by others roxette fans in others countries and to discuss them, not to reach an agreement like you interpreted, because that is impossible!!! plus, if i think that a topic is stupid then I do not participate in it!!! right? well, thanks everyone by your answers
pd: The Rain is great!!! (i include in my best ones)

chileanguy said on May 30, 2003 14:12:
why everybody hate view from a hill? i think that song is great!!!!!
Santi said on May 30, 2003 15:15:
About “From head to toe”, if it was never released maybe was because they didn’t want that song to come out, cuz even they thought it was too bad. I don’t consider a song not chosen by them to be a Roxette song. Let’s just remember this song DEMO was STOLEN from Per’s studio...
Santi said on May 30, 2003 15:17:
@Chileanguy: Why do you hate June Afternoon!? I think that song is great!! (Now you have the answer to your question :D).

From head to toe? I’ve never heard of it. Where can I listen to it?
Personally I like all Roxette songs. Today this one more, tomorrow another one. I haven’t got an absolute favourite Rox song.
chileanguy said on May 30, 2003 19:38:
Marlene: visit this site: has many demos, including FHTT, plus have many videos:

gessleism said on June 3, 2003 11:30:
I can´t thing in “Worst Roxette´s song”...
I prefer to say “Songs I don´t Like”....
SONGS THAT I DON´T LIKE:
View from a hill
Like lovers do
Voices
Joy Of a Toy
The Big L.
Soul Deep
Place Your Love
The First Girl on the moon
Staring at the ground
Try
Bringing me down to my knees
In my opinion, the “Spanish” Songs are not Roxette Songs (They didn´t write them).
