Which Roxette song??

Right, I wasn’t sure which forum to put this in, so picked Off Topic. Always a good one!!!
As some of you may know, I’m doing a radio show on December 1st, and obviously, it’d be rude not to play a Roxette song. Problem: Which one? Do I go for old and one which everyone knows, or do I pick a newer one which no one really knows?
Any suggestions? I’d love to play One Wish I think, or even Reveal.

Depends.
Are you allowed to play only 1 song?
In that case I would choose One Wish, then people know Roxette is still alive.

Well, I feel it should only be one song. It’s only a 2 hour show, so two songs by the same artist may be a bit too much. One Wish is gonna be played!! I’ve decided. I’ll let you know the playlist when it’s done! I’m quite excited!
pwbbounce (moderator) said on November 21, 2006 10:06:
Right the playlist is as follows: (bear in mind that the age group is probably as wide as it can be that’s why there are so many varied songs) Any comment/suggestions welcome!

Interesting playlist. I would have suggested One Wish as well. Just to have something different from the older tracks all the time. And seeing as you have the opportunity why not throw it in, seeing as other stations probably aren’t playing it :-)

If there is gonna be a release of Reveal, that’ll get played as well. This is sort of like a trial for me. If it goes well, then it could be a weekly 4 hour slot. Hopefully!!!!! Roxette will get a play everyweek!! lol

Something off Tom Petty’s new album would be nice too, just to have something different from the older tracks all the time ;)

I’ve been rescheduled :-( Sometime in January, due to ’unforseen circumstances’
Just as I’ve been preparing myself.

Right the radio show is back on for sometime in March (was gonna be the end of Feb but I’m not gonna be here then). Time has moved on, so it’s no longer suitable to be playing festive tunes me thinks!
I think Reveal may now also the Roxette song of choice to play. As it will be the latest release.
My whole music taste seems to have changed slightly since I did the first playlist. And there is a lot of current songs which I love, but I don’t think will be suitable to play on this station.
I have a while to decide, so I’m not worried to much yet. But any suggestion from people will be greatly received!!

What about: Rolling Stones - She’s a rainbow ?
That’s one of my favorite Stone’s songs and I find it very moodlifting. ;-)

Hi everybody!
I like “A thing about you”:) My favourite Roxette’s song!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well, I reckon you should play OW and have a little dig at EMI UK/I for not releasing it heheheh...but if you’re heading down the Christmassy vibe, play IMHBL (CFTBH)
