I can imagine that cover would most certainly stand out on a shop shelf.
A huge square of white amongst a sea of shelf colour.
We should have no problems spotting it.

I think it is a nice cover, simple and nice, and i think it fits the moment right now (with Marie’s illness)...
@TDR ppl: congrats for article 1000 ;)

Nice! Boring font, but it doesen’t mean as much as the picture.

It’s beautiful, and as Judith said, I think it fits the situation that is now.

I think the cover is really cool - very modern, maybe rox think that their images on their cds reduce their sales?!

hm... Now, I was wondering one thing... I don’t have ALL singles ever released, but I don’t think it’s that common that Roxette release a single or album that don’t have their faces on the cover in some way, right??
I wonder, is there any other single that dont have Per and Marie on the cover??

@ little-girl: FINGERTIPS! On that cover were just handprints!! ;-)

It’s simple and sweet. It’s totally different from any other Rox-cover. It seems kinda...”shy” because it’s so simple, but that’s what makes it brand-new! Go strawberry!!:)

It’s a very nice cover. It’s simple and yet, it stands out.
Will the single be released in Canada??
gargar said on September 24, 2002 20:59:
it is... nice. i don’t know, i never buy singles. why would i do it? i buy the album. why pay for the same song twice?
questiongirl said on September 25, 2002 02:00:
that’s a sweet cover!
’lingor salad’ coul be better for the tittle isn’t? ,kidding ;).

Gargar, maybe because singles have extra rare tracks not on the album - like “Weight Of The World.”

@Damineh: No commercial Roxette single has been released in Canada since 1994, so it’s unlikely we’ll see it (the “Wish I Could Fly” single wasn’t released, you could only get it at HMV by buying “Have a Nice Day,” or asking for it, as you did!). You should be able to find it as an import in Vancouver, though...

So, is it a single from a new album, or just a single by itself?

classy and different. interesting and noticable. and without marie and per - good. i mean how many variations of M&P can be figured out.
the font - it’s simple, not boring and another wouldn’t suit it.
i think it’s the best singl-cover of them i have seen. and i think i’ve seen all of them.

- Strange cover
- Expected something in relationship with the videoclip
- Hope it will attract attention in the shops
