the best solo instrument moment

19 replies

Which one do you think is the best solo instrument moment in a Roxette or related artist song?
Mine is Det hjarta som brinner, iam talking about the intro, i love so much the drums by mycke!

Hmm can we choose more than one?... :P

The violins/strings in “Anyone” and “Cooper” and “Om Jag En Dag”
The saxophone in “I Was So Lucky” (though it’s hard to pick between the sax there and the acoustic guitar in the demo!!...) and “Cry” and “Shadow Of A Doubt”
The acoustic guitars in “I Could Never Give You Up” and “Krig”
The electric guitars in “Listen To Your Heart” and “Tro” and “Den Ständiga Resan”
The church organ in “Mellan Sommar Och Höst” (now that one’s top original!)
The piano in “Tro” and “Lova Att Du Aldrig Glömmer Bort Mej” and “Heartland Café”
The harmonica in “The First Girl On The Moon” and “Tända En Sticka Till”
The accordion in “Inte Tillsammans, Inte Isär”
The trumpets in “Waiting For The Rain” and “Äntligen”
The oboe in “Queen Of Rain”
The organ in “Ljudet Av Ett Annat Hjärta”

And I better stop before I go on!!... :P

sweepi, i think you picked out all the good ones :-P esp the oboe in QOR. I also like the accordion in Perfect Day.

... and the flute in “Wish You The Best”!

I also really like the short but perfect guitar solo in “Chrissie, Hur Mår Du?”...

There are so many good ones I may add some more later...

All the best from Rich

The guitar-solo in The Rain always gives me a shiver. Don´t know why.

The piano-solo in IMHBL
The orchestral ending of LTYH
The guitar-intros in SIMC and Lies
The tumbling Boing in the middle-8 of WICF ;-)
...

Ooops!! I picked only one.
But I think we are still missing the harmonic and the electric guitar in Dangerous!! It is great. And how about the harmonic in Kung av sand??
Sweepi let us one choice jejejeje :-p
I think my nick should be “The best ...what?”
Best wishes.

eheh :P

Speaking of “The Rain” I absolutely adore that violin (?) in the demo! And still the piano: in “The Sweet Hello, The Sad Goodbye”! :)

Agree about violin sound in the demo of The Rain
and orchestral ending of LTYH
and el. guitars in LTYH and Den Standiga Resan
and flute in Wish You The Best
and piano in IMHBL
and intro in Ljudet Av Ett Annan Hjarta
and church organ in Mellan Sommar Och Host (WOW!)

and want to add here as well
*instrumental part in the middle of Keep Me Waiting and Neverenging Love
*also the middle of Tylo Sun when first 2 guitars and then bass & Farfisa are playing together
*intro & outro of Billy
*ending of June Afternoon
*any Farfisa solo (gorgeous sound, absolutely in love with it! :P)

So many instruments and parts of the songs were mentioned, but I’d like to add one more - the intro of NAR VI TVA BLIR EN (still sounds in my head)!

The saxophone in I Was So Lucky and the guitar in the demo
The acoustic guitars in I Could Never Give You Up
The piano in It Must Have Been Love

@Rich-UK - OMG i couldnt agree more on the solo in Chrissie, Hur Mår Du..... its amazing :)

Realy many solo moments to remember, how about the piano in Joyride? Nice, isn´t it!!??

for me it is the piano part in the sweet hello, the sad goodbye. really amazing.

@ Xarrrr :) ... I have another one: the guitar outro in Den Öde Stranden live on the Återtåget tour :-) Go MP! All the best, Rich

I really like the guitar solo of “I remember you” and the guitar riff of “Lies” and “Sleeping in my car”!
